monday update.

[technoir]

The con is looming. Looming is a good word. It seems like I have a billion things to do between now and Wednesday night when I drive down. The laptop needs to be loaded up with some software tonight. The clothes and minimum of costuming will need to packed by at least tomorrow night. The gaming books going needs to be reduced to a minimum I can get away with and still play in some games while there.

 

So the podcasting front needs to start up again now that I am more into the new apartment. I will be trying a free form update tonight. Most of my podcasts are prescripted but tonight I will try and give just an update podcast with out a scrip just a few bullet points. Depending on how it sounds I may do more of that. I am also taking the microphone to the con just incase I get a chance to record a little at the con.

 

Went to the gym this morning for a good work out. There will not be a gym in the hotel I am staying in but I figure massive amounts of walking and stair climbing will make up for the absence.

 

Saturday’s gestalt game finale was great fun. We got to fight a a fallen god, a few demons and a an Uber bad ass dragon half fiend. I blew up and finished off the dragon and the rest of the gang took out the big bad balor/half dragon that was living inside of him. I got brought back and became a god rank 0. Everyone had their cheesy characters uber bad ass moments. Insane amounts of damage were dealt by all involved. Adam ran a great game. Did not get to bed till around 4 am Sunday morning.

marriot with some friends. They dont have a gym listed on their website anyway.

The Marriott has a really nice gym, you have to go through it to get to the pool/hot tub. James ended up working out with Kevin Sorbo and Mr. Sulu last year!
I suppose the only issue with their gym might be with all the renovations they are doing, they might be renovating their gym. But I hope not.

Awesome. Nothing like a good work out to wake you up in the morning.

Seems like everyone has a good time at those games. I'm enjoying the gestalt game Veaya is running for some of us Atl folk. It's small, but I haven't gamed in forever.

We were 18th level gestalts so we were uber powerful.

[stagefreaky.livejournal.com]

Holy jeebus! I've never had a standard character over 10!

[technoir.livejournal.com]

We were insanely powerful. People were doing to massive ammounts of damage. Lara alone in one charge was clearing better than 300 points of damage. I could cast multiple 9th level cleric and wizard spells. Reeses character was a special kind of insanely powerful throwing multiple disentergrates in a single turn. Ryan was doing like 14 attacks a turn. Robbie and Jay were dragons!

That's totally crazy, and now your character is a god 0?

[technoir.livejournal.com]

And veaya was a were rat rogue rolling massive numbers of dice pretty much every time she hit. and yeah I retired as a god.

Woot.

May I suggest the Heroscape tourney on Sunday? If you've never played they've even got a number of Master's sets worth of figures, and it's cheap (though the original plan was for it to be free... damn you Dragon Con)

[technoir.livejournal.com]

Maybe. I am not much of one for minature war games but maybe i am still planning out the things I am doing.

[gr8tmazinkaiser.livejournal.com]

It's more of a boardgame; the spiritual successor to HeroQuest, IIRC... but yeah...
