Yeah, yeah, leaving early, blah, blah. Not our fault you live all the way over there. Rest of us can leave at reasonable times.

So I got clothes picked out, I got books packed up, I got adventures printed out, I got dice, i got pens and a pencil or two, I got my badge holder, i got money I won't have time to spend...

Still need to clean out the car... might be ready on time.

For those skipping to the last page...

All the fun stuff is going on in Clark and the Champaigne Room. (and NO, I do not mean THAT sort of fun)

Further ramblings about the onsite and events books:. Why is there no map in the onsite book?. Seems a no-brainer to include a map in both. Most people will assume we are in the superhero room because our games are titled "heroes" and the staff never checked to see what the actual theme was. Truth is, they are running superhero games while Mark and I ARE superheroes. (you may now speculate on hero names for us.)

So, are we the GMs who appeal to the emotions of the less-educated? or espouse the cause of the common man?

I might have accepted "Demiurge"

According to the dictionary at my home it ment a person who plays with the emotions of the people to aquire power, but I could be misquoting, so will have to wait til I get back home and post it. But I thought it fit. :D

Edit: Ok, here is what it said in the dictionary : One who tries to stir up peoples emotions in order to win them over and so, gain power.

So what is HOA but a game of emotional stimulation(s), getting the imagination to work overtime, lol.

Hmmmm, second thought, maybe its more super villan than super hero. :D :lol: ;)

Does that include you writing progress thread?. Not that the comic book thread won't eclipse it soon enough. Gee, by this time next week, I should be make you regret not playtesting 5 on me.

We have to cancel origins. I was printing stuff for megaparanoia tonight and BAM, ran out of ink with two vital pages to go. And it's far too hard to just buy more so we will just have to cancel. (after all, walmart is only open 24/7 so it's not convenient).

Sorry The Computer has not cleared you for access to that information. It is there, it's just printed in ultraviolet ink.

Those pages printed just fine. It's the inrared information that I do now want to repeat 56 times that isn't done.

LOL! I was actually expecting Mark to be the one to stay up late and finally beat me in the post. :lol:


Oh, and Mark or Dave, you'll have to do the countdown again tomorrow, as I have the day off, so I don't expect to be out of bed before 8am, since I get to sleep in for once. (Yes, 8am is late for me, lol, when I'm usually getting up at 4:30am most of the week.)
