Scantily clad women swarming all over someone? Sure that wasn't a Ska party?

Ska parties are cooler.

We need a change of topic, and I still haven't told you guys about the filk convention I went to. For those who are wondering "Filk" can be described as "science fiction folk music" however Filk music tends to defy definition (for example Luke Ski is considered a filker.)

This explains a little bit more about an RP group that used to play in some of the Gen Con events I used to run called the Filking Weiners

Where is everyone?

Thursday I began my vacation.

Started with a war with the wife that ended in hugs and kisses

Next was a doctors visit that went VERY well.

Lots of swimming with the kids at the river

Seeing a movie (Pirates- not as good as the first one. Seems forced/hurried)

Game day- Hit the group with 45 tyranid gaunts, 7 warriors and 3 Zoanthropes. 3.5 hour battle! YA-HOOOO!

Bar-B-Q

Now I am updating Creation Schema SH and finally surfing again on the net.

Oh- and its my B-day


Not too bad so far. Especially considering the winter/spring I have had.

Where is everyone?

Still around, just now and again.

Good weekend.

Drank with old workmates

Massacred Gauls in Rome: Total War

Went to eat all you can at Pizza Hut (probably not again)

Walked around the quay and walked along the canal for real ale in the sun

Went to a modern jive dance in flippers and snorkel

Played in our Blood Bowl league (I hate skaven!)

Finished on Sunday with quiz machine in the pub after gaming.

Now back at work :|

 

[megamania]

OYE! I have not played Blood Bowl since College when we tried to start a league. I have a new urge.

 

[JonnyFive]

blood bowl?

 

[PieAndDragon]

Blood bowl is a fantasy psuedo version of american football, produced and supported by Games Workshop. In the latest revision, there are over 20 teams, including Ogres, Vampires, Halflings, Lizardmen and Nurgle in addition to the more "mainstream" teams.

They've revised the rules again, playing around with the leagues and bonuses teams get for playing better teams.

Best info for blood bowl is at http://www.specialist-games.com/bloodbowl/default.asp

The main thing I remember- don't play humans.
