I'm guessing that's a common Finnish surname?

Turunen Wink Yeah it's very very common. I believe Finnish names may sound very weird to foreign ears Tongue

Was that laughing at the Kupo! reference of the Turunen comment?

Sorry non-computer nerds, but James, is there really zero difference between a Dex of 6 and 14, or am I reading this chart wrong? And is high Char/Wis/Str an ok combination for a Paladin? I feel bad about neglecting my Int and Dex (Con is for pussies).

What chart?

Dex. is more important than Wis.  More so for thief characters though.

I'd definitely have higher Dex.  For a Paladin though, go for Con. and Str.  Con. = Hit Points.  Str. = Bigger hits and you can carry more too.  I think it may help criticals as well but it's been ages since I looked at the stats.

Wis. is also useful for spells but I think it's borked and is more useful for Clerics.

Hmm, I'd say 2004/2005 in Wanha Satama perhaps? Ermm Kings of Time had been released a while earlier. Where in Kuopio did you live? I spent my first 20 years in Petonen Smile


I saw them in Henry's Pub in 2007 I think. I lived in Puijonlaakso, Julkula, Neulamäki and the last few years in Saaristokaupunki right next to Petonen. Haha. Every summer in Vancouver though...

To be precise I lived my first one and a half years in Puijonlaakso and then I moved to Petonen, we were one of the first families living in the area. Saaristokaupunki was very much still under construction when I moved to Helsinki, but last summer when I was visiting my parents my dad showed me the area by car, it looked very nice indeed.

Scott Brazieal formerly of the band Cartoon and an online friend of mine, actually remembers my name and knows I'm an RIO/Avant-prog fanboy and post on here.  He's just introduced me to someone who has a progblog and who I didn't know existed.

Yey!

It's always nice to know RIO/Avant-prog musicians know their fanbase.

Even I'd remember you if I'd get 25 e-mails and phone calls and autograph requests from you. LOL

There are big charts in the back of the manual that explain the effects of each level, and for Dex levels 6 through 14 it says 0 Miss Attack Adj. 0 AC Adj and 15 adds -1 AC Adj.
 
And don't Paladin spells act like Clerics?

Despite no harm done to our posts (or the posting process), yes, many synthax errors.

I haven't noticed anything...

I could try and find some very funny sounding words for James to giggle at, but I think I'd rather start getting to bed Tongue

I then ended up buying the Zappa Plays Zappa ticket even though I know Zappa very vaguely. So I'm not sure if I'll go myself or sell it to a friend who's a worshipping fanatic probably without a ticket.

Just the name Pekka makes me giggle.  Sorry, Pekka. LOL

HP, I don't have the manual.

I do know there's errors in it though.

Glad I'm making someone happy by just being LOL

I've been thinking about possibly changing my username to Pekka... I don't feel very much Keppa4v, but I'm pretty much a Pekka.

edit #2: Argh, I've repeated that silly name enough to make myself giggle at it LOL Pekka, Pekka, Pekka... couldn't my parents come up with something that could be taken seriously? Well, if I was a girl, I'd be Liisa.
