The Place: Newcastle.
The Reason: Not FArmidale and see old friends.
The Excuse: Cam Indie Premium Session.
The Result: PURE GOLD (bar the pubs).
Not Armidale is good. So good that when I saw the Indie event advertised in Newcastle, I broke my self imposed cam exile and went to it. Here are the details:
The Good:
- NOT ARMIDALE.
- Many people caught up with.
- Many drinks consumed.
- Grand Hotel Food.
- Grand Hotel Atmosphere.
- Hobby store.
- Comic Store.
- 1920's clothing store.
- Game setup/plot was fun.
- In-game agenda engaged with gusto.
- In-game accent dodgy but stable.
- In-game plan adhered to and successful.
- Paymaster Cafe Food.
- NOT ARMIDALE!
The Bad:
- No neat drinks
- No doubles
- Pub lockout times
- Pub closing times
- 1/4 of game time freeze (self imposed).
- Newcastle taxi service
The Ugly:
- Drunken relating the "onegina" theory to S.O.
All in all, more good than bad or ugly - and the ugly really got canceled out by S also being happy to not be in Armidale.
Summation:
Fucking Awesome. Most fun I've had in ages. Well done Southern Cross! I really enjoyed myself.
