After, um, "Certain Situations" happened that made gaming at the major convention in Winnipeg persona non grata, and the second one taken over by card and board games (No issues with that, but when you're trying to get some RPGing done...), gaming at conventions in the 'Peg have gone downhill.
Enter, JIMCON! In it's first year and, well, let's see how it goes! ... I'm lonely, damnit. |

Looks like I'll be lonely there, too... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/frown.gif)

Considering my current lack of passport, and not being allowed in Canada for some unknown reason...

How do you get banned from Canada? I mean, it's not like we prevent people from coming because they had a Same-Sex Marriage or a Drug History from the 1960s for being caught with one marijuana joint!
... Hell, the only person I heard about being banned from Canada was involved with a Rebellion! ... They still elected him to be a Member of Parliament. |

I don't really know. I overheard them saying something about disorderly conduct, catapult, and public nuisance. They then gave me a police escort back to the American side of the border.

Funny... That was Friday Night in the park back home... And the Park Hotel back home, come to think of it. And the National Tavern down the street...

Things went well, two games of Shadowrun and one of Paranoia GMed. Tired now.

I did. It was quite the interesting 'Run I set up.
This is the intro piece that everyone got e-mailed to them by their fixers just before the job... |

Love it. And this stuck out the most:
And this month Sam's offering a special, free soup with every knife wound! Delicious and Kosher. It's Kosher-licious! EDIT: I think Joe Veen is even more anti-TM than you, CanRay... |

The Sam's thing is from a friend of mine, and a reference to something I made in-game for my group. Sam's Surgery and Deli is also in my stories.
All the ShadowTalk is from various posters, it's open posting, so... I also remembering Joe telling me that those pieces were the hardest to write for him, as they were totally against his nature. |

Sam's Surgery and Deli... That... Delights me...
Maybe Tech_Rat will make an appearance... Oh yeah? Is he not a big fan of lynching Technos? Or just the lynching in general? You've also given me a new site to enjoy, so... Yeah. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/nyahnyah.gif) |

Hasn't been updated in... Far too long. Joe was using it for his group, which fell apart, I was using it for the game I was running, which fell apart (And the players never read it anyhow! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/frown.gif) ), and it's kinda just sat there since.
Maybe if I get more ideas... But I hate just putting up text, and I'm not an artist at all. |
