[QUOTE="TracerBullet42, post: 3134973, member: 11885"] Wow, where to begin... Yet another thanks to Buzz for being "The Man" at gameday and to Curt for being "The Host With The Most." Missed you, buddy...hope the wedding was a good time. (It was a wedding, right?) Now, onto my games... [U]Pumpkin Patch Panic![/U] I....had...NO idea how fun this would end up being! Bigtime thanks to my players (Reidzilla, waterdhavian, Sharraunna, Nazriel, Barendd Nobeard, and Trevalon Moonleirion) for making this event an absolute blast. Sure we had to pitch half of the adventure, but it's been years and years since I've laughed as hard as I did during this game. (Sorry to the nearby tables for the loud disruptions! Well, I take that back...I'm not really sorry. Not even a little bit. :) ) Highlights included: - Raven C.S. McCracken leaving the Synnibar rights to Kent Wayson. (Big laughs even before the game started!) -Dieter Koffman (the VW "Unpimp Your Ride" guy) tricking out Ecto-42 as an vintage Volkswagon Mini-Bus complete with pumping techno music for a siren. -MOONFRYE! (Seriously, you had to be there, but Moonfrye was awesome. I hate to pick favorites, but we're all grown-ups and I thought Moonfrye was a brilliant character!) -Poor Ralph the sheepdog got smoked right after Old Yeller did. -Death by puke! -Inter-party fighting! Complete with ripping things open with one's teeth! -Charlie Brown...er...Chip Chocolate -You blew up the mausoleum???!!! -Justin Timberlake is no longer bringing sexy back. -"Hey, you big meanie! Stop being so mean!" (followed by really high roll) Bad guy pauses, "Hmmm..." BOOM!!!! And a special shout-out to the greatest game mechanic ever devised...THE GHOST DIE! [U]Excuse Me, But I Believe I Ordered The Pineapple Special[/U] Again, a big thank you to my players, rvalle, his buddy, spacepirat3, gperez, and bigznak for helping me carry on the adventures of this rag-tag group of heros! I had a lot of fun, and I'd like to point out that the game wrapped up at 9:08, which is a new record for me. Granted, I had to bypass a good chunk of the adventure, but the point is we ALMOST finished on time. Highlights included: -Tonga Room taking damage from the princess trying to cast a fireball out a window...a window that was closed. (OOPS!) -BOINK! Another pan falls on Bilimac's head! -Flame strikes galore! -Hammocks under the floating chariot. -"Your butler was very helpful." "What butler?" (Looks of fear abound) "Just kidding...." -Reaim toe-to-toe with a gargantuan black dragon and surviving a full attack...barely. -"It's an arena...an arena! I'm gonna kill that guy." All in all, another great game day. I'm sure I missed a whole bunch of great moments, but I'm still trying to recover (my voice has almost recovered 24 hours later!) Looking forward to next time!
