You know the routine.

    Friday night Kitect craziness. In particular, lying on the ground hearing Nico state to his fellow townspeople that it would be his honor as an Aldebrandi to die defending Sir Kitect from them was lovely.

    "Skunk, you Old Fart Bag,"

    Zora, after learning the types of things I'd been buying, turns to me and says confused and concerned "I just don't understand... Who ARE you?" (It probably didn't help that I'd shot him the night before.)

    The distant non-stop screams of the entire town saturday night as I sat back relaxed tending the fire and sipping some apple juice.

    "I've got just what we need!" he proceeds to pull severed fingers out of his pocket.

    The collective "Oh, shit" moment of stunned silence when we all realized we had to kill Seedy. I have never felt as genuinely swept away and remorseful about an in game moment as right then.

    Robot voices. The only time it's OK to answer a question with "Uh..." and it sounds good.

    "Warlord? Do we attack them?"

    "...I'm not sure."

    Going out as something sneaky and scary at 3am, discovering nobody was awake, and promptly scaring the hell out of myself as I listened to the local critters make noise and splash into the lake.

    Timochen story time by the fire. Also, sleg.

    "BACON! SPEAK WITH ME, BACON!"

    Waylaying a tree trunk in the darkness.

the results of my bga involved being chased into town by a mutant after leaving the mutant infested warehouse and game started with me hiding in an old car that i then couldn't get out of until help arrived.

looting the car and finding the "handy looking pump doodad that looks like it could be useful for something" under the hood. that was a great title for the item tag. and i got to be help with the improving of the water purifier by providing that pump

awesome new bracers from dezba

hilarious conversations by the fire followed by watching a bear get punched in the face

still getting surgery Sunday even though all of the players who were surgeons had left game early.

Sir_Gregory Apr '13

The Legend of Sir Giuseppe and the Blinged shirtless hairy Bear of Beacon. By far the best transition from the rants of a drunk fire circle.

Techno Bomb being the new hit single of Karst as well as the probable cause of the first war.

The fantastic and fiery tales of the late great Michael Sheriden. (God rest his soul)

A fifty foot statue of Zhora spewing forth firearms once a month.

"A fifty foot statue of Zhora spewing forth firearms once a month."

Oh goodness, I had forgetten this. I believe this could be the project to bring Beacon together. Crafters to whittle the statue, Tinkers to fill it with guns and make it float, lorekeepers to write the philosophical nonsense it yells as the guns flying out of its mouth, everyone else, being otherwise useless, to strip down to loinclothes and scream nonsensicly and wave their arms about.

I, for one, can not wait.

Oh man, where do I even start?

    Dueling Simon Moody's Elite raider in an epic clash of polearms. Well-fought, sir.
    The giant shitstorm that followed capturing Kitekt. The town's reaction was pretty great.
    The ever-growing list of Michael Sheridan's accomplishments. From founding the Aldebrandi Kingdoms to shooting fireballs from his hands, they all made me laugh.
    A massive amount of everything going wrong at once for Michael, and his telling Guiseppe that he'd do what he suggested.
    The facility! Speaking infected and more and more information being found.
    getting used to Hunter combat. While I won't be playing Olin again, I will be playing a hunter soon.
    More info on the Sons of Vartok! They're very intriguing.

Valdi Apr '13

There were many many moments, some of which...

    Coming the closest to perming yet, from drinking bleach and surviving due purely to luck and happenstance.

    Timochen spirit journey mod. Some of the best immersion I've ever had. Dave and Tibbs are awesome.

    The most awkward silence ever.

    A surprisingly composed farmer conversing with the devil.

    Clarify: Have you read 'Atlas Shrugged?'

    My duel with Simon Moody's handler character, between dodging bullets, impotent blows, gun jams. It was comical up until he got tired of my shit and finishing struck me.

    Drop drop the Techno Bomb.

I'll think of more later.

For me it was an interesting time

"Do you think anything you do is a bad idea" "No that's why I do it" "Even your plant pets" "Especially them"

Said to a duster "May you live a sparkle free life" turns to zack as his new charecter "may you never ascend" and the fun afterwords.

"Clarify have you read atlas shrugs"

Alex/sir miles recanting a story of his spirit walk gave me goosebumps. Amazing role playing good sir.

Finding out about Jared briteson

Being a soon to be plan spriggan man.

Being in the facility "area effect sleep by gas" me the only one with a gask mask "resist" all 6 other people thud on the floor me "oh fuck"

The brothers in town finally getting together as a group and workin together.

Watching Tim as his Nobel OD on bleach in my house (great RP Tim)

The gun known as old skunk

Great event overall.

magusdave Apr '13

The cannibals have taken the Trading Post for the second time and are digging in to some of the food left on platters and plates. Teef Mathers has a biscuit in his left hand and a rock in his right. He takes a bite of buttery goodness just as Sir Lucias Marcellus opens the front door and peeks in.

Teef throws the rock and hits him square in the chest.

with a mouthful of biscuit

: "SFTHUN!"

Biscuit crumbs fall from the cannibal's lips as the door slams shut.

oh i guess im just "a duster" ?! zach at least gets mentioned by his out of game name. im feeling kind of slighted to be honest stuck_out_tongue

DaveGame Director Apr '13

Favorites: Seeing the players conduct a surprisingly orderly retreat from the radiation fight, including rescuing an NPC they just met and performing surgery on him.

"... we're new!"

"I punched a bear in the face! You should have been there!"

Shaking things up with the closing battle.

adminSimon Apr '13

"Don't steal Czeslaw's one thunder!"

IzzyBrit Apr '13

If I remember correctly, he had two thunders. :o

wowy319Zack Oak Apr '13

The BealsBear fight was also one of my absolute favorites as well. Throwing 3s into that fight like a madman against a bear with a crazy threshold made me feel pretty awesome.

zorrahyeyi Apr '13

Giuseppe: "Wait. This discussion is about gun-hornets. Everyone knows that gun-bees are real."

Zorrah: "This is your gun." [Gives it back] Dot: "That's a strange thing to do, I shot you with it." Zorrah: "And don't ever try it again." Dot: "Then stop being a bad guy."

This was fantastic. I stood there for 5 seconds thinking to myself, "don't open the door. Don't open the door"

Blue Apr '13

Dat mod. holy crap. Dat mod.

It's poor form to 'favorite' one's own moment, so I'll just say that I fucking loved drunken bear punching, and I, for one, thought that handsome, clever fellow who plays giuseppe was as funny and enjoyable playing a drunk as he is sexy and smart.

Also, am I the only one who didn't duel Simon Moody?

system Apr '13

i didnt duel him.. but being snuck up on behind the drug cabin by a plant-moody who then gas-feared me while i was alone was pretty awesome.

system Apr '13

Damn now my cabin is basically the ghetto. I live with drug dealers and bleach addicts die in it. Awesome

DirkangelOld Skunk Apr '13

    It's poor form to 'favorite' one's own moment...

In that case, I will 'favorite' the various reactions to Lord Buckmeade's untimely end, and the fact that the mouth-foam worked so well that there was still foamy goodness running out of my mouth a minute after death. Getting hit with Fear just before when my Might had been stifled.

The Marcellus Brothers letting the cat out of the bag Sunday morning.

Aldebrandi services-though it was unfortunate that we didn't have the serfs.

Sunday morning, as several townsfolk made valiant rescues to keep the Sons of Bartok from slitting Jurgen's throat... I tried 5 times and failed.

Crud!

Tweeker Farmers.

Lots of great roleplay moments with players as many different characters; Karst has become a real place, and a complex story.

Sir_Gregory Apr '13

Being fatally wounded when the overdose on bleach happened in the ghetto and hearing "Who is the highest ranking Alderbrandi here?" I look up during triage to see I am, and asked "what do we do with the body, he is a noble?" I promptly respond with "I'm dying, I don't care through him in the river." Then being faced with the Inquisitor asking where his body is... My face... 0.0
