So, have advertised this on fb & rpgopinions, and will put it here, too - A slot's opened up in my Ravenloft game. Group's currently composed of myself, Jimmy, Andrew and Jahn. If you're interested, hit me up. Similarly, we're looking at running some oWoD Wraith on a monthly basis - again, if you're interested, let me know.

The third session of Wraith is upon us, 7:30 on the first friday of September. There's a boat full of slaves and a garden full of flowers, and both these things are terrible. If you're coming or you're interested in playing, send me an email.

So, Matt's indie vamp game was on last Saturday. Some of you were even there. It was good, but the big thing it made me realise was how much I miss running an ongoing LARP. Ravenloft's cool, but it's not the same - not as many players, not as much sense of community, no big picture where I was aware of how much everyone was screwing everyone else ( Read more... )

At the theatre...

ME (holding forth on the subject of my past as a tortured artist): I'm pretty confident that this is a game of Misery Poker that I can win.

HER (who was actually there for said past, and so knows it's all bullshit): Well, yeah, but that doesn't mean I don't have a hand.

So, I have in the past been accused of pretentiousness. It's an accusation I'll wear, particularly in light of my latest game pitch ( Read more... )

HER (Advising a dubious course of action): You should just do it. It won't hurt you to compromise just this once. You don't have to be good all the time.

ME (Trying to defuse this discussion of my personal life): I can't, though. If I do that, I'll loose Smite Evil and Protection From Disease.

You know what would be great? If the uni computers could only access certain websites, so that I wouldn't be able to waste time looking up Amanda Palmer songs on youtube when I'm supposed to be working.
...
Yes, I realise the irony of posting this from a uni computer. Don't contradict me, I haven't had a good day.

ME (in a slightly defensive manner): There's a simple solution to all this - just don't marry someone I don't like.

HER (In the tones of someone saying something really, really obvious): Yeah, but you hate everybody.

Oh, also - Wraith is on on the 26th of this month. Blurbs were meant to go out but haven't yet - if you're interested, let me know.

So, I've been a bit quiet on this thing recently. There's no suspicious or interesting reason for this - I just haven't been having adventures*. I made the mistake of telling my boss when I finished uni for the year, and found myself working pretty much from that date up until the week before classes kicked off again. As such, I haven't done ( Read more... )
