PPS - really, I maybe might have overdone it when I started detailing out the engraving on the silverware...
Huh? You engraved me?

Engraved? Preferable to being etched, I reckon.

Think of it as hardcore tattoos for an unintelligent piece of second-rate rare metal :D

Came back from a week in Japan. I went for this:

Image

The heso matsuri in Shibukawa. People strap arms to their waists, paint faces on their bellies, and then cover their real faces with a fake hat so it looks like they're really short, and then dance down the street in order to celebrate the bellybutton.

You're supposed to paint the faces like the ones above. Some people had a different idea of what faces to paint:

Image

Some people are so scared of the tiny dancing people that they'll run away from them like it's Pamplona:

And then have this photo without commentary:

Not what I expected when you said in IRC that you would show us photos of your trip, Duck. Thanks for posting. :thumbup: :angel:

Had a fun weekend :D
Our DnD DM is still learning (it was literally her first time DM'ing) but it was fun nonetheless.
(And I managed to help a bit by virtue of already having memorised a decent part of the rulebook :ghost: )
Some highlights:
-Our halfling rogue constantly hiding behind the robes of our wizard for sneak attacks, yet never actually needing the extra sneak damage to kill something due to good damage rolls
-Me only figuring out a third into the evening the kidnapped dwarf we were trying to rescue from goblins was not only our patron but also my character's cousin
-When we had to trudge down a dark forest path at night, my dwarf cleric used the light spell to make the sword of our slightly too self-important fighter glow...
bright pink :ghost:
(( "You can do that?" "Spell description says I can choose the colour." *cue laughter*))
-Goblin archer botched his attack roll so bad he hit a stalactite, which came loose from the ceiling, and fell on the goblin bosses head, nearly killing him.
-My dwarf cleric using thaumaturgy to cause a mini earthquake and frighten the goblin boss into doing dumb things (we then killed him)

Make the most of it - SoundCloud may be in financial trouble.

Soundcloud? Financial trouble? This is the happy thread. :lol:

edit: Oh, wow, apparently they laid off 40% of their employees recently. If they don't get bought out soon, they won't be around much longer.

<nods> Yeah - it'd be sad to see them go under.
