Q148[/B]: I'll climb a rope up to the moon. Tomorrow. How long will it take ? What are my odds of success ?

A148
Assuming you have already managed to attach a rope to the moon, the rope is knotted, and you have taken care of the small matter of surviving space:

As long as your climb modifier is greater then +3 and you climb at 1/4 move speed to avoid penalties, you will make it to the moon in a number of rounds equal to (Distance to the moon)/(1/4 your move speed).

Q146: How was the universe created ?

A146: In the beginning ...

Q149: What do you call a man with no arms and no legs lying on your doorstep?

Q150: Who put the bomp in the bombshubompshubomp?

Q151: Are we there yet?

Q40-alt: Why does God let bad things happen to good people?

Q152: Who let the dogs out?

[SirKazum]

A40-alt: Because those people need a challenge appropriate to their level in order to earn XP.

RAW and relevant!

Unbutu specified "tomorrow", indicating a period no greater than 1 day for the climb. It's about 238900 miles to the moon, or 1,261,392,000 feet. A day is 14400 rounds. Unbutu's base speed would need to be at least 350390 to get there in less than 24 hours, presuming s/he is (as you say) climbing at 1/4 speed to preclude penalties. Unbutu, what is your race? And do you have any relevant templates? What about buff spells or SLAs?

Q153: Why do good people do evil things?

[SirKazum]

A153: Because they rolled this in their random treasure and didn't think to cast Identify.

[Dimers]

A153: Because they rolled this in their random treasure and didn't think to cast Identify.

Disagree. That makes them evil people. I was thinking Dominate, myself, but that depends entirely on the caster and situation.

Ooh, oh, I know! A153: Good people do evil things because they're trying to use "the foul sight granted by the powers of unlife" to determine who most needs the holy power of their compassionate healing.

A154: What thing that can be done by RAW on a 1rst level human, is the further away from what could be done by a real life human, without any magic ?(Example: Being kilometers underwater without equipment, and not dying, because water does not apply pressure in DnD. )

You're mistaken. From page 11 of Stormwrack:

DEPTH
Very deep water deals water pressure damage of 1d6 points per minute for every 100 feet the character is below the surface. A Fortitude save (DC 15, +1 for each previous check) means that you take no damage in that minute.

Plus you're asking a question which is the reverse of this forum's topic, since it can be answered.

Fair, fair. I'll try to make a comeback:

Q155: Can love really last a lifetime ?

Q156: Wich one is the sixth sense ?

[Dimers]

Q155: Can love really last a lifetime ?

A155: Yes. Mind Rape lasts plenty long enough to kill the target.

A156: Tremorsense. In the order given in the downloadable SRD, under "Types, Subtypes and Abilities":

1. Blindsense
2. Blindsight
3. Low-light vision
4. Scent
5. Telepathy
6. Tremorsense

Apparently normal vision, darkvision, hearing, touch and taste are not senses.

[Milo v3]

A155B: No. Elixir's of love only last for 1d3 hours.

[Dimers]

Hmph. Still plenty of time to kill the drinker. Then it'd last a lifetime.

[GreenZ]

A155B Correction: Yes. Elixir of Love lasts for 1d3 hours, which should be long enough to kill the target.

If you're interested in stuff like that, I would suggest The Dysfunctional Rules Thread. We've discussed some weird ideas like dropping prone to instantly and safely fall on your back, how fatigue and exhaustion don't affect saves vs sleep, and other bizarre situations found in the rules as they are written.

What was my bizarre tax for this post? I put it in blue which means it's sarcastic, but its not, and thats not a rule, especially as written and I used a lotta commas. Makes you think...

Q157: Should I start this post off with a question?

Q158: Does the Sheep Count the Sheep?

Q159: When the sun burns out will any of this matter? Who will be there to remember who we were?

Q160: Do androids dream of electric sheep?

[Almarck]

Q161 What is the worth of a man's soul?

Q161.A If it matters, are there differing values based on race, gender, creed, or alignment?

[Chronos]

Q 162:

Consider the set of all sets which do not contain themselves. Does this set contain itself?

[Jormengand]

A160: No, because constructs don't need to sleep.

A161: Three experience points, if I remember correctly. It's a pretty bad amount, to be honest; you need a lot of souls just to make a simple magic item.

A161.A: No, but outsiders don't have souls. Also, good-aligned creatures are worth more when sacrificed.

[GreenZ]

A162: Magic Items must generally be worn to have any effect. Thus a set must be worn to contain other sets and could not, therefore, contain itself unless specifically stated in the item's effects.


Q163: Do you know what I mean when I say I don't want to be alone?

Q164: Should my campaign come to an end when there is way more to avenge?

[Curmudgeon]

A 164 Yes.

The Avenger is an April Fool's joke. Extending the campaign to April 2 would no longer be amusing.

[Denver]

A163

Variable.

Discern Secret Message: You may use Sense Motive to detect that a hidden message is being transmitted via the Bluff skill. In this case, your Sense Motive check is opposed by the Bluff check of the character transmitting the message. For each piece of information relating to the message that you are missing, you take a –2 penalty on your Sense Motive check. For example, if you eavesdrop on people planning to assassinate a visiting diplomat, you take a –2 penalty on your check if you don’t know about the diplomat. If you succeed by 4 or less, you know that something hidden is being communicated, but you can’t learn anything specific about its content. If you beat the DC by 5 or more, you intercept and understand the message. If you fail by 4 or less, you don’t detect any hidden communication. If you fail by 5 or more, you infer some false information.

Unfortunately, because I do not know what the result of your Bluff check was, I do not even know if I know there is a secret message to know about.

[unbutu]

A 164 Yes.

It's not obvious to me how this is a april fool joke. Is the class stacked compared to alternatives to the point it's funny ?

It's the exact same as the Assassin class, but they badly photoshopped the pic to be white instead of black and made it non-evil. Also, it was published on april 1st.

[Jormengand]

A157: Usually, asking questions is not inherently a good or evil act.
A158: Probably not, given the sheep's low intelligence score.
A159: Yes, because some of us will be on other planes or have immunity to cold.

Q 165
If someone belches with an interrogative inflection, what is a good answer?

Q 166
What's a fair minimum wage?

Q 167
Why aren't there more crossovers between MTG and D&D?

Q 168
Isn't a question mark just a little redundant given that there are words that can give an unambiguous context as to whether or not any sentence requires an answer.

[Chronos]

A 166:

An untrained hireling makes 1 SP per day.

[avr]

A165
'Belching' is only used as a game term in the context of breath weapons. I recommend Wings of Cover if you have not otherwise readied an action.
A167
Crossovers between different worlds require planar transport magics which can be expensive to obtain, and there is no guarantee of treasure appropriate to the difficulty in MtG.

[Almarck]

A167

Because it's redundant. Wizards fullfill every facet of Planeswalkers in that they summon creatures they know about, have Libraries, and are able to travel into other Planes as early as they get Planeshift. It's just in MTG every Wizard seems to have Conjuration as their favored schools.

Edit: just realized my original reply didn't quite fit in. Put a better more RAW Supported answer, but I'm saving the original reply in case people want to read it.

Q 167
Why aren't there more crossovers between MTG and D&D?

A167
Because it's redundant.

The playable characters are creatures created by Planeswalkers from their memories and understanding of achetypes glitzed up to make them more effective. Their cards tend to be bigger than usual for MTG, but it's fine as it lists ever stat including Strength and Toughness. Most of these planewalkers only have one or two creatures in their decks with everything else being equipment. They're allowed to start play with their signature creauture and equips as part of a modified Commander ruleset.

Meanwhile, another Planeswalker creates his own monsters and creatures using his own resource pool, Put in the right lands, equip challenges appropriately before letting the other planeswalkers have to block or attack the challenge. He gets more everything including the power to treat his Library as his hand in order to balance out the fact he's on his own. There's also a side deck for rewards for overcomming the enemey Planeswalker's challenges.

Non standard challenges are mostly casts of diplomacy between Planeswalkers or whether or not the "lesser" planewalkers can use their Libraries to overcome the conceived scenario.

Then with the game for that day ends, the surviving character's equipment is saved and exported to the next game, while all the Planeswalkers alter the rest of their libraries.
