Nathan (Moderator)	posted 9/23/04 11:36 PM     Wheeee! I wanna be a mod too! :)
Nathan (Moderator)	posted 9/23/04 11:39 PM       Hooray! I am a mod. :D Hi Jen, Mike, Laura. Vilkomen and what not. Travis made us this nifty MB to use. Yay for us. I was thinking, once RoA is fully up and running (which will be soon, coz I have my trapper keeper now!) and we've played into the 1st level thingy some, what say we do that 32nd level game too? I know we've all been itching to do that. ;)
Redlead (Moderator)	posted 9/24/04 0:37 AM       This mb is hosted by a free website thingy, so ads a-plenty. Unfortunatly, I can't change the format of the mb except for colors. The reason I submitted this instead of no ads and complete power over mb is because of a few different reasons: No ads - costs money to get a site to host with no ads Complete editing power - I would probably need to host it on my own computer and that won't be as reliable as a webserver (ex. i could reboot my computer while you are posting and lose all of it) If you would like me to host it on my computer, I could make sure that it is up and running during certain hours so as not to lose anyone's posts. Your choice. Also, would you be interested in a website makeover? I can try a few things and show ya.

Angel	posted 9/24/04 4:04 PM     Hi. Just checking in. Psst... Travis! Where did you find Slash's Bloodaxe? I need cost and such. :)
Nathan (Moderator)	posted 9/24/04 9:19 PM       'Ey! Who said there was bloodaxes and such in Acadecia?? >_<
Nathan (Moderator)	posted 9/24/04 9:20 PM       And BTW, yes Travis, I wouldn't mind a little tweaking here and there. If you could put the site in Frames, I'd love you forever. In a totally non-gay brotherly sort of way. :D
Redlead (Moderator)	posted 9/24/04 11:11 PM       May I not use frames? I can make it look like frames though. It is just that frames are a little more difficult to maintain than a single html file (I dislike them, also). But, as the dm, your word is law.
Nathan (Moderator)	posted 9/25/04 0:41 AM       I'll trust your judgment. Go nuts. ;)
Angel	posted 9/25/04 4:54 AM     NATHAN! E-mail me before 7:00 am on Saturday! I tried to get a hold of you today, to ask about Ren Fest, and hanging out and such, but you never e-mailed me! Grrr.... Oh, and Travis, I'm still trying to find the Bloodaxe. What book was it from?
Nathan (Moderator)	posted 9/25/04 8:08 PM       Eek! Who turned out da lights?? O.o
Redlead (Moderator)	posted 9/26/04 4:20 AM       I turned out the lights. Too bright... anyways, I am working on a new version of your website and trying to get some webspace at my college for it. Updates will continue.
Nathan (Moderator)	posted 9/26/04 7:58 AM       ATTENTION, FOO'S!!! Aside from a little bit o' tweaking, RoA is ready to play! The following information is missing: The Mage Knight PrC info. A couple names have to be changed around in the Realms section, but no major changes will be made. So, pick yo shit and start making your characters! :D Oh yeah, and I have to put up the Calendar section, so all the years listed in history and whatnot aren't so bloody confusing to you. Just so you know, the present year is 3325ca (that's Coming of the Archmagi), and the date is 6 Dandeon (spring, in other words). And Travis, don't forget to put up all the info! We don't want people confuzzled. :P http://www.angelfire.com/sd/golemworld/acadecia/index.html Realms of Acadecia Homepage [This message has been edited on 09/26/2004] [This message has been edited on 09/26/2004]
Jennifer	posted 9/28/04 3:51 PM     travis, mike and i have a total of 10gigs of webspace. right now im just using it to host pictures. i can make a username and pass for you if you want to put the site there... :) its also add free
Nathan (Moderator)	posted 9/28/04 8:52 PM       *pokes people in da facez* C'mon lazy-boneses! You wanna play or no? :p http://www.angelfire.com/sd/golemworld/acadecia/index.html Realms of Acadecia Homepage
Mike	posted 10/2/04 1:44 PM     I'm waiting for the info for your so fabled Mage Knights. What if I just can't resist playing one? :)
Nathan (Moderator)	posted 10/2/04 7:15 PM       OMG! Someone interested in playing a mage knight, even pondering and pontificating the thought?? Check the site, I have it updated. :) http://www.angelfire.com/sd/golemworld/acadecia/index.html Realms of Acadecia Homepage
Nathan (Moderator)	posted 10/4/04 2:22 PM       Travis, new updates. The Races page has been updated. The calendar page has been updated. Certain environmental racial variants (such as the desert gnomes and the arctic dwarves) have been added to the Races page. Anyone who wants to can take a gander at these races and use them if they wish. The calendar page is worth a look, if for nothing else than to get an understanding of the months of the year. I'll have a little ditty on the CA/DR/PDR eras in there shortly. http://www.angelfire.com/sd/golemworld/acadecia/index.html Realms of Acadecia Homepage
Mike	posted 10/5/04 0:09 AM     Hey, are there any monastic orders that allow multiclassing?
Nathan (Moderator)	posted 10/5/04 1:29 AM       Every monastic order allows multiclassing with a few restrictions. Check out the Organization page for details. --- --- Travis, one last update (for a long while, anyway). The following pages all need updating: Calendar Classes Gameplay Races Realms Once these are updated, all necessary information should be there for people to make chars, and we can post that pretty little protosite on the Net to show off and drool over and occasionally hump when we think no one is looking! ...... Did I say that out loud? http://www.angelfire.com/sd/golemworld/acadecia/index.html Realms of Acadecia Homepage
Redlead (Moderator)	posted 10/5/04 4:48 PM       I thought Amanda was joking when she said she saw someone humping the website! Mike and/or Jen, what services do you get on your webspace? (ex. php, cgi, etc...)
Mike	posted 10/6/04 0:10 AM     Where might I find this organization page?
Nathan (Moderator)	posted 10/6/04 1:26 PM       hehehe, oops. I forgot to add a link to the Organizations page. :P There is a link now. Urmmmmm, Travis? You got another page to update. *hides head in shame* http://www.angelfire.com/sd/golemworld/acadecia/index.html Realms of Acadecia Homepage
Nathan (Moderator)	posted 10/14/04 11:22 PM       I got bored, so I decided to post. Who wants some crazy chicken lovin'??? http://www.angelfire.com/sd/golemworld/acadecia/index.html Realms of Acadecia Homepage
Angelique	posted 10/15/04 0:39 AM     Well, no thanks on the crazy chicken lovin', but I would like you to check your e-mail. :)
Redlead (Moderator)	posted 10/16/04 0:10 AM       Do I get loved by the chicken or do I love the chicken? Although, either way works for me.... *drifts off into daydream land* http://www.angelfire.com/sd/golemworld/acadeciaReborn Acadecia Reborn Website
Nathan	posted 10/20/04 4:43 PM       You worry me sometimes... O_o Anyway, the protosite looks great!! Except, er, the Realms page is all weird for some reason. :\ Any further updates I can do m'self, I think. Thanks for all your hard work, Travis! And YOU PUT UP THE WATCH DETECTIVE!! You r0x0rz j00r b0x0rz!! OK, someone slap me for using "leet" spelling. >_<
Nathan	posted 10/20/04 11:31 PM       Thanks to the massive efforts of Travis, the new RoA site is done! Everybody make sweet monkey love to Travis! I'm currently working on a brief description of each of the home regions so you can each get a better idea of where your character comes from. And I promise, one o' these days I'll have those stupid world maps up! ;P
Redlead (Moderator)	posted 10/20/04 11:41 PM       Don't use a basic editor or anything that angelfire suggests. It will screw up the html I put in those files. Edit them directly. I think it does this by default for my files all ready. If you can, update the footer.html to include anything I forgot. Also, if you need a refence point for the setup of the website, check out template.html, I made it for copying. I am still in search of a better message board. Charter doesn't support SSI or PHP so, for now, I don't think the website needs to be moved. http://www.angelfire.com/sd/golemworld/acadeciaReborn Acadecia Reborn Website
Ryfte	posted 10/21/04 2:45 AM       I've got 500 gig for my site(s). If you don't mind a subdomain I can fix one up for you. It's the latest PHP support and you could have one PHP page pulling all your content pages in. That way you'd only have one nav section... There's a messageboard as well. It's ad free as well. I pay for it anyways for my business sites and a few domains for businesses I host. Let me know!
Redlead (Moderator)	posted 10/21/04 7:19 PM       I am interested. Do you have some more information about signing up or the main web address of these sites? Our budget is $0.00. So if there is a fee anywhere involved, I don't think we can do it. http://www.angelfire.com/sd/golemworld/acadeciaReborn Acadecia Reborn Website
Ryfte	posted 10/21/04 11:01 PM       Nah, there's no fee involved at all. I've got two registered domains, hexxagoncorps.com and truedark.com. I could set up a subdomain on either one. I've actually got another 4 domains to use but that requires that it be registered (that's a pretty small fee from any number of places running around 10 to 15 bucks a year) if you want your own base domain like www.acadecia.com. Otherwise, I can set up a subdomain on either site. Something like acadecia.truedark.com (or the same with hexxagoncorps.com)would work fine. I could parallel this site for a while and we could see how it works out as well first. A "trial" run as a test. :) I pulled the site down and built it as a PHP site last night just in case you were interested. I can push it up and set up the message board tonight. The hexxagoncorps site is my web-business site and the truedark site is, at some point in time, going to be an online game store or store portal for a bunch of different product. I've basically been using it for a design and code playground. The subdomain (i.e. acadedia) wouldn't be affected by any of the other stuff I do on the truedark domain. It would be in it's own section / folder.
Averli	posted 10/23/04 3:03 PM     ryfte, who are you???
Nathan (Moderator)	posted 10/23/04 7:38 PM       Ryfte is a buddy from the Wizards message boards. Don't worry, he's cool. Just don't feed him microwaved chicken after midnight. :) Something that uses the same code format as Wizards would be nice (i.e. the "[" instead of the "<" stuff). What's that called again? EZcode or somethin'? But anyway, whatever it is will be better than this. Now the Anti-Spam code is up to SIX digits. Ugh. ;P
Angelique	posted 10/24/04 11:15 PM     New member for the game, or just popping in to say hi, Ryfte? Anyway, hi and all that. Nathan, check your e-mail. I have an idea for Angelique. Yes, I'm back on THAT subject again... Well, it's really Mike's idea. It involves Unearthed Arcana, so it should be right up your alley. :)
Redlead (Moderator)	posted 10/24/04 11:58 PM       Ryfte, if you could set up the site at acadecia.truedark.com, for a test run, that would be neat. Since you mirrored it, you might have missed the header.html, sidebar.html, and footer.html that I had included with SSI. Will we have our own username and password to edit the website? http://www.angelfire.com/sd/golemworld/acadeciaReborn Acadecia Reborn Website
Ryfte	posted 10/25/04 10:36 PM       I can set up just about anything. The easiest thing for me to do is just give you universal rights for the directory I set up. that way you can ftp it with any ftp or editor. I'll have to do a bit of research on the messageboard. No big deal since I've been meaning to look into it further. Yup, I'm from the WotC boards. I've been playing there for a bit over two years. "Deimos Phenom", heh, as he's called there, started a thread with this world there and I'm playing a h-orc marksman (read variant fighter) character. I had a really busy weekend! I'll throw up the site in the next day or so. Will it step on anyones' toes if I do some redesign work of a graphic nature for it?
Ryfte	posted 10/25/04 10:42 PM       Hmmm, you want ot just email me a zip of the site directory with all the files? I can just slam those into place and then php tweak them! Would probably be a lot cleaner to begin with the original files. :)
Redlead (Moderator)	posted 10/26/04 6:56 AM       Ryfte, Thanks for all your help and thanks for asking before doing anything. But I would like to continue work on the website myself for the design aspect while Nathan works on his content part of it. I am trying to find time at the moment to do the graphics, possibly Tuesday this week. As for the phping of the website, I would like to use it as a learning experience for myself. I have messed around with php for a little bit and I want the practice with this website. I don't mean to offend if this is the case. It is just that last time I built a website and handed it over to someone else, it took a turn for the worse and ended up a disaster. Just makes me a little reluctent to do again. I hope you understand my feelings about this. Although, if Nathan wishes it a certain way, I did built this site for him and he can make decisions about it. But just to have something to upload to your server, I have zipped the currect files into acadecia.zip and uploaded it to this location: here. I also have a message board that I found in PHP that I could upload. It doesn't use a MySQL database but it uses text files. I was going to start out with it the way it is and work on converting it to my own purposes, MWAHAHAH! I uploaded it also if you would like to look at it or test it out. http://www.angelfire.com/sd/golemworld/acadeciaReborn Acadecia Reborn Website [This message has been edited on 10/26/2004] [This message has been edited on 10/26/2004] [This message has been edited on 10/26/2004]
Ryfte	posted 10/26/04 9:59 PM       No worries and I certainly don't take it personally! :) I'm an older player and I've been doing this a LOOOOOOONG time! Heh, I've got four kids and my gaming drives my wife nuts. You knock yourself out and have fun! I'll put it up and play with it on my side. If you decide you like any of it just let me know and I'll send off the piece(s) you're interested, if that happens. Thanks for the content/source! It does make throwing the site together faster. I'll put it up this evening.
Nathan (Moderator)	posted 10/26/04 11:08 PM       Nerf! Computery stuff over poor lil' Nathan's head! ;( Anyhoo, my whole forte' (if you can call it that) is content. As far as HTML and data and graphics and all that, I leave those decisions in Travis' capable hands. :)
Ryfte	posted 10/26/04 11:44 PM       Heh, the content made it easy! http://www.truedark.com/acadecia/index.php
Nathan (Moderator)	posted 10/27/04 1:07 AM       Holy crap that looks neat-O! :D Except, er, the Mage Knight's class table is smushing the words. *LoL* Might just want to move the text down so it all fits. Just a suggestion. ;) Also, you might want to re-check the original site (er, the "Protosite", not the Blue Site of Death) as there are a couple new PrC's listed. Argh! Never mind, just ignore me. :p (Well, ignore comment about Mage Knight PrC, at any rate.) [This message has been edited for sheer stupidity on 10/27/2004] [This message has been edited on 10/27/2004]
Nathan (Moderator)	posted 10/27/04 2:22 AM       Hey Travis, you know what the best part about Ryfte's site? It's in frames!! *ROFL*
Ryfte	posted 10/27/04 4:32 PM       Actually... it's not! ;) The seperate page areas are all in "include containers" and the content area is in a div tag. I use the php to call the div element and plug in the content based on the variable passed by the left nav. Thus there's only one page, i.e. index.php with any full page layout information. The content pages are free form editable that way and "non-techs" can muck with them with little or no concern as to their html skills. This is a mix of PHP and DHTML and works pretty well. It helps that I've been doing this, as I sais, a LOOOOOONG time! :rofl: http://www.truedark.com/acadecia/index.php Parallel Acadecia Site
Nathan (Moderator)	posted 10/27/04 6:14 PM       Awwww, dammit Ryfte. You stole my moment of triumph. ;(
Redlead (Moderator)	posted 10/28/04 0:53 AM       After actually seeing what you have done with the site over there, I think that maybe we should let you finish what you had planned. I bow down to your 1337 skills. Could you change the title graphic so that "Acadecia" is in the largest font? It seems that the emphasise is on the larger text, in this case, which is "Realms" doesn't seem to fit, at least with me. Otherwise, I feel the website would be in better hands with you. And stickin' it to Nathan about the frames was a nice bonus! :p http://www.angelfire.com/sd/golemworld/acadeciaReborn Acadecia Reborn Website
Redlead (Moderator)	posted 10/28/04 4:48 PM       Just a curious question about something that probably doesn't concern me, what is up with the Angelique topic? http://www.angelfire.com/sd/golemworld/acadeciaReborn Acadecia Reborn Website
