Okay first off this weekend was my distract my self from melancoly weekend. It was the 5th aniversary of my fathers death and I have been in an unpleasant mood all week. I may have been short with people and unresponsive. Overall i was feeling anti social. I decided this weekend i was going to do my best to be social and not think abouts dads death. i went to play cam changeling and mage saturday. They were fun. I had less fun with changeling cause it was mass combat thing and I feel mass combat in a parlor larp is always a mistake. but the story stuff of it was solid. The mage game was fun. I like playing characters like that. If you want to know what kind of guy he is think Alexander Zanatos from gargoyles or Lex Luthor from smallville. thuroughly smarmy evil and hard to peg down as ever doing evil in a way where he is caught doing.

today i hung out with Wayferny and ikara fox. They are cool people and i enjoyed my discussion concerning evolution and human technology. I later ran my Dawning Star game. It was a session where the heroes lost. A combination of missed roles and bad coices and a really clever and evil villain took away some of the toys the pc's had earned. The idea was supposed to lead them to some other story elements down the road but I may have pissed people off out of character by how it played out. Sometimes you do the story the way you see it and you dont carry the players with you and it makes people unhappy. It was not my intention and I may have dropped the ball. i am sad about that. I hope they stick around to finish where the story is going.

Oh well over all the weekend was not bad. I still missed my dad terribly and regret so much but I managed to distract myself with the company of friends.

I am sorry you feel that way jay. I can say I have taken your complaints into concideration and will try and adapt the story in the future. I made some story and game running choices I am sorry you did not like them. I am sorry you lost this round. I can only assure you a made some points in the course of the adventure where people could have changed the radically. You can believe that or not. What i will not do is change my game my decision on the apropriateness of an action, setting change, or rule in the course of a game. I dont feel in the middle of a game is a time to argue(funny that as I am apparently known for my argumentative nature). I gave my reasons for my choices you can agree with them or not. As I said i will try and better meet your concerns in the future. I do want to you to continue playing.

Eh most of this is my own fault. If Damion leaves the party it will be for his reasons not because I was pissed about a gaming session. I have to say though that you gave him very good reasons not to fight anymore. It's not like this is a holy crusade. For him putting his family's lives in danger might not be worth it now that he's pretty positive they aren't safe at all.
