[QUOTE="Barendd Nobeard, post: 957390, member: 960"] [SIZE=4][COLOR=red]Synnibar Rules![/COLOR] [/SIZE] Just kidding! :p I will post pictures in a different thread, since I have about 30 to post. I'll just say: (1) Attendance was smaller than usual. As Mark said, "We've whittled it down to just the cool people." :D (2) I had a great time playing in jalea's d20 Modern game. Our dice-rolling was so bad, we just didn't expect to roll over a 5 [b]ever[/b]. My favorite exchanges of the game: DM: "It's a genealogy lab." Player: "They're researching family trees?" "Get your taint off the dice." DM: "Make a Strength Check." Player: "5." DM: "You beat him." "We don't need a Doc-cickle." "The lead-based snow....." (3) What can one say about Synnibar? We spent 2 and a half hours doing character creation....and I killed two other PCs in the first minute. My bad. MattyHelms just cracks me up, but I fear he will never run Synnibar again. I suggested we run a 4-hour slot at GenCon that is [i]just[/i] Synnibar character creation--that's the best part of the game. My favorite exchanges: "I rock." "Yeah, but you rock in [i]Synnibar[/i]." "There are people who understand why we're doing it [playing Synnibar], even if I don't." Player: "I remembered a rule." DM: "That's your problem." 18,910 damage--with a steel feather. "I'll close the book. I'll even throw it on the floor behind me." (see related picture in upcoming picture thread) Player: "Characters are brought back from the dead." Player of a dead PC: "No, don't do that!" "Fast-squatch." "Kahn!!!" DM: "Is that an aneurism? Please?!" "That's cowering, not blocking." "It doesn't like clapping." "Well, how does it handle applause?" All in all, I think good times were had by all. Thanks to all the GMs, and I hope Matt recovers some sanity from running Synnibar. Perhaps the TPK will help. :) [/QUOTE]
