I survived the heat and hoards of mosquitos!

AKA, I went to a LARP this weekend. I played an elven archeologist and got to use my abilities to learn the history of a number of items. I was also able to use my knowledge of archeology to identify a newer, weaker wall in the catacombs.

I had a great time, and had a vacation from reality.

Hope everyone else's weekend was good, and that the heat wave finally ended where you live.

The Armory is an actual Army Reserve Armory (there is a tank up the road) but is mostly used as a building with a large hall that gets rented out for events. Such as the model train and dollhouse show I went to over the weekend.

((For the one doll person reading this, I managed to find a 1/6 table amid all the 1/12 stuff, as well as a few 1/12 things that work at both scales))

Nearly all of yesterday was taken up with playing Arkham Horror. We started sometime between 1:00 and 1:30, and I had to bow out at 10:20 due to needing to work today.

There is a new event listed on the sign outside the Armory. I glanced over as a drove past on the way home today.

The sign:

THE ANCIENT ONES
OUTDOOR SPORT AND GUN SHOW


Me:
Ack! Cthulhu with guns!!

It is a good thing that I will be cat-sitting on the other side of town this weekend. Oh yes.

So, after wandering the beach, I headed back to my hotel.

The party itself, plus a Halloween costume! )

Gamers like zombies.

Gamers like Fluxx.

Will gamers like Zombie Fluxx when it coems out this fall?

It think so. For a preview, go to the Looney Labs main page http://www.looneylabs.com/ and be sure it is for the week including today (05/02/2007).

Attention all gaming people who like Fluxx, Chrononauts, Aquarius, Icehouse, Zendo, Treehouse, and many cool games with pyramids!!

Looney Labs has cool holiday specials. They want people to buy their games direct from them this holiday season. From their latest newsletter update at http://wunderland.com/ (November 23, 2006) it sounds like they may need to sell part of their company in order to continue to expand. I don't really like the sound of that, especially after having met them at Astronomicon.

They are amazingly cool people who make great games.

I currently own only two of their games: Chrononauts and Are You A Werewolf?

I would love more. True Brian would love pyramids (currently for sale as the Treehouse game). If I had money, I'd be buying people these games.

Rudicon XXI

Rudicon is running Friday the 13th of October through the 15th. It's a great weekend to be at a con!

Rudicon is at RIT in Rochester, and this year we will be hosting Keoish games and a world premier interactive for Living Greyhawk. There will also be a Warhammer Tournament, a two-night LARP, some really great demos (including Amputheatre! Skallywaggs, Laughing Pan Productions (Deliria) and a new company called Tremorworks), and a bunch of fun one-shot games (for those who know Josh, he is running In Nomine which was very popular at RWAG a few years back).

Admission for the whole weekend is $13 at the door, but pre-registering makes it cheaper! So does volunteering! We would love volunteers for help with the reg desk and security. Volunteering for one timeslot drops your admission costs by half. Volunteering for two slots gets you in free!

Check out our website at http://www.rwag.org/rudicon and email rudicon AT the Gmail site if you want to volunteer.



If you are in Rochester and have different gamer LJ readers than me, please feel free to repost this in your journal (behind a labelled LJ-cut makes the most sense).
