Prepping for my LA departure (tomorrow), I don’t have a lot of time, but I wanted to thank everybody for a great show. Paul Tevis and his crew of croni–I mean “volunteers”–were great. I got to playtest Houses for the first time and I’ll be putting up my observations later.
The books I needed to really make my booth shine arrived today.
“Got hates me. That’s it.”
“Hate him right back. Works for me.”
Speaking of which, I got to play in Matt!’s Dune board game tourney. I almost won. Instead, a buddy won because of a mistake. A mistake I made. That’s cool. I already have a copy of the rpg.
I also got to play Sons of Liberty: a steam-punkish American Revolution Magic Mason RPG that’s in development. I’ll be writing the introduction. I already have the starting line:
This is the game I would have written… if I didn’t take a vow not to.
It was a lot of fun. I like the character/adventure generation system very much. I can’t wait to see the final product.
I also got to see some friends. Probably for the last time. I will miss you all very much.
Today, it’s an oil change, a car wash and a Pink’s hot dog. If you want to see me before I go, better make it today. Tomorrow, at high noon, I’ll be leaving LA.
(Sorry, ladies. That magician’s vow of celibacy is still up and running.)
In the meantime, here’s something appropriate.
When we are young
Wandering the face of the earth
Wondering what our dreams might be worth
Learning that were only immortal — For a limited time
