LARP-froth

[kneeshooter]

So much to do, so little time. This was by some margin the most enjoyable NWO game I've been to. I felt happy, I felt I was firing on a fair/acceptable percentage of cylinders and I can think of little that wasn't at least "contained" and can be dealt with (or not) at the whim of the squidgods.

Of course there are regrets - but these aren't the usual world-shattering issues; and immerwahr provided some of the requisite "Good game" reassurance at the end. It did feel a bit strange to play first a more relaxed Divis; then one new emotion (honest!); and finally a change of chair which introduced a little lack of surety.

A little light sparring with wulfboy was good fun; TEAM LEGAL managed to avoid exploding despite both the odds and the Pennington; and I succeeded in all my attempts to balance a ball on my nose.

Everything else is coming out even more incoherently and I love you all. I did survive not-quite-LARP, and I can't wait for the next opportunity.

And finally a moment of self-congratulation for actually bothering to make so many costume changes (heh - it's new to me) and to Ben Mars - who is the god of Mask Making.

I'll shut up now and research how to remove a good standing or two and sink Asia before breakfast...

I saw a flash of mirrored mask as you took off with Morgan after Neil - I didn't have a clue who it was until you came back up the hill, and I thought "...perfect".

I think I finally get the beach ball. Is it to do with certain mythical aquatic mammals?

[kneeshooter]

I'm not sure about mythic mammals, but if you're talking about common circus tricks by creatures with a dislike of Canadians with baseball bats; relating to a certain cognomen - yes.

Bless. Do you toot little horns as well?

He wishes.

I can think of various witty answers along the lines of "No, we have goats to do that" but I feel it might detract from the serious introspective elements of my post and/or be lost when said elements cause me to delete the post.

You were personally responsible for me choking on coffee twice, which no other player managed. (For the record, both relayed privately by Paul. One, I'm sure you know already - the other was "...and to take over from Ligeia - Divis Mal.")

A performance entirely to the standard I've come to expect from one of the cleverest people I know :-)

I'd love to say I was in complete control of that latter point. But I wasn't. In the slightest. Freefall. I know who I blame.

What do you think?

[kingandy]

I think it was nice to meet you properly.
