Hey, everybody. Just wanted to let everyone know that I had a fantastic time yesterday. Things went smoother than I thought they would. I think it is a testament to what a great group of gamers we have here in NC to see how quickly and easily the groups came together.
The gang who I ran through my Return to the Dungeons of the Slave Lords game was great. They all made it through the adventure alive despite some valiant attempts to die by Mahawk. His misadventures have prompted me to consider a ruling whereby continuing to belt out your Bard song while falling into lava will require a Concentration check from now on. Thanks again to that group for making my first "con-esque" DMing experience an unqualified success. And if you guys are interested in seeing an account of how the adventure went the first time I ran it, check out this thread: RttDotSL - Take One
As for the Whispering Woodwind game, I feel I must appologize since I was a merciless spotlight hog. Not to mention that the boisterous behavior of Aggro the Axe(s), my Half-Orc Barbarian/Ranger very nearly killed Jenna3 by inciting asthma-inducing laughter. Seriously, I haven't laughed so much in a game session in as long as I can remember. It's going to be hard going back to playing my mild-mannered Halfling Rogue after "Laying out some Justice" and "Dispensing some Fashion Tips" with Aggro.
So thanks to everybody who came and made this such a fun event. From where I sat it looked like every game the whole day was a resoundingly good time. I wish I could have played in all of them. In particular, Henry's d20 Modern game sounded like a blast. A few lines from that game that rose above the background noise:
"How do the Zombies afford the rent?!"
"I don't have my M-16, but I'll open up with my pistol!"
"How do Zombie Dogs blow up a car?!"
and my favorite
*Bang, Bang* "Philidelphia Police! Stop or we'll shoot."
Rest assured that we will be doing another NC Game Day and it won't be long. Thanks again to everybody. See you around the boards.
Oh, and keep your eye out for photos to be posted by Quasqueton. Those should be fun.
