Okay folks; day one has come to an end. Goatboy and I had a good run, ending up in 15th place out of... a bunch. You go look at it!
CliffNotes: I ramble on in my tired way then show some pictures you don't care about.
I've got to say, so far the event is surpassing my already high expectations. It's great to meet and yak with a bunch of people, putting faces with names and all that.
The actual event was a blast! Everyone I've talked to had a great time, and by any measure it was a huge success.
I'm trying to get people to take pictures with the face... what can I say? I've got a weird sense of humor.
Here's the room and my setup. You can see my Indentured Servant catching up on the light reading.
I've got to admit, I'm in a hotel across the street from the event. My lovely wife managed to score me a huge deal on the rooms, and while the deal the Bell worked out with Doubletree is good, I can't afford to double what I'm spending to stay there. I'm not exactly rolling in money right now, what with grad school looming.
Herr Fernseher isn't good with math. That's what he says, anyway. It doesn't stop him from filling up pages and pages of his notebook trying to crack the code on deep striking.
Seriously. I'm not joking - it's like another language... but he said he's not quite finished yet.
*sigh*

Although it is sad that one of the teams called themselves Team Twilight. Or that the Overall Winning team called themselves The Pink Shirts... not sure if I read the blurring print out correct.
Congrats on your achievements.

We played team Twilight in Round Three - the joke was Edward = Blood Angels Jacob = Space Wolves. They were really cool guys - we had a blast.
Truth is, all three games were tight. I wonder if I can say that today?
Wish me luck.
