[QUOTE="Barendd Nobeard, post: 3619730, member: 960"] Thanks for everyone involved; I had a great time. Thanks to Curt and Games Plus for hosting--a fantastic site for a gameday and wonderful hosts, as always. Thanks to Buzz for organizing the shindig! Thanks to the ten players from the various Ablets--Mt. McCracken was a lot of fun. Props to "Absent Guy" (William, this became your name after you left), socpsychguy ("I coup de grace the giant for [rolls dice] 13 points of damage"), rowport ("I attack; that's a--I FORGOT TO POWER ATTACK! ARRRRRGHHHH!"), Monte_at_home ("I tell the group that the [raise dead item] only works on me"), and Trev (DM: "It's the top of the round; Trev, you're up" / Trev: "Close Wounds. Sound Lance."), all from South Ablet. From the North Ablet side, props to Jay (speed: 90; speed: 60; speed 30; speed 60....), Wendy ("Calcium? Halcyon?"), Dan ("I'm at neg 9"), Joe (insert memorable event/quotation here), and Christine ("I pour the potion down his throat"). I'm not sure what happened, but as Monte put it, South Ablet snatched defeat from the jaws of victory. We'll get you next time, North Ablet!! (For sure--I promised North Ablet I would cheat next time to guarantee a win; does South Abelt have a counter bribe?) Thanks to Hinterwelt for a fun game in the afternoon. Everyone did a great job slaying the dragon, except for my character, Llew Dragonslayer. But that's o.k., he's actually a deity, right? ;) When the adventure continues, Wendy and I will use the "pin the bad guy while Llew disables a trap" tactic more often! :p Looking forward to November, even if I do have to run the-game-that-shall-not-be-mentioned (which Trev has promised to play in, and TracerBullet42 has to play in since he didn't run Ghostbusters this time). And thanks to the Cthulhu game in the afternoon. FCWesel's periodic updates were cracking me up! [/QUOTE]
