[QUOTE="Rel, post: 1087862, member: 99"] [B][/b] I can't speak for the event as a whole as I only had a really good handle on what was going on at my table (sometimes not even then). But I'd probably have to say it was the fact that in not one, but both sessions, I wound up with three of the five party members lying at the bottom of a 20 foot deep pit that could easily have been climbed into by most of them taking 10 on the roll. I must also say that the looks on their faces when I had the main bad guy whip out his "Daern's Instant Outhouse" was priceless as were the countless, severe beatings they underwent with "the club of healing". :D [b][/b] Given that the other games included a Planescape game, a game called "Down and Dirty on the Farm", another called "Against All Ooze" and Henry's Mutants and Masterminds game, my Orcz game seemed downright conventional. But I did my best to keep it interesting and I'd like to think that the Orcish Ranger/Bard who sang his "Inspire Courage" song to the tune of Monty Python's "Lumberjack Song" was fairly unique. Maybe the Goblin Gong Farmers too. [b][/b] I guess that I'd just like to say that it was very evident from the events that took place outside the actual games themselves (the dinner on Friday night at Applebees and the Post-Game-Day wind up at Rock-Ola Cafe) that these folks are not just fun gamers but genuinely friendly and interesting people who I immensely enjoyed hanging out with. [b][/b] I didn't hear as many this time as I did last time, probably because I DM'ed the whole time and was trying to be more focused on what was taking place at my table. But during one pause, I couldn't help but overhear Lola holler out (from CodeMonkey's Against All Ooze game), "Well, I'm blind and nauseated so I'll just head down the hallway." The more I think about it, the more the South Park/Lovecraft parallel seems spot on for my Orcz game. Scary. Once again I'd just like to extend my thanks to all the folks who attended and helped make this such a fun event. And an easy one too. As the would-be coordinator, I honestly felt like I didn't really have to do much of anything. I suppose if you folks are going to keep making this job so easy, I'll keep planning the NC Game Days. ;) [/QUOTE]
