marylittlegothThursday evening:
Went to the Rose and Crown with Kat & Martin XW8, Rachel and Kat's friend from work, wjo was very nice, but whose name has temporarily slipped my mind.paul_sticks and doctordavecame up from Basingstoke too and much fun was had by all.
Friday:
On Friday we loafed around the house all day.
Saturday:
On Saturday we went toshadowstone's birthday barbecue at Harvey Road, as organised by himself, wizlow, sauron19and no doubt alison_bear. All very good, food was spectacular, company excellent, among otherslatentexistence, card0, wolf_shadow, cathedrow, and jussard were also there, and a girl called Zoe, who used to sit behind me at Royal London PRT and is a good person, which is nice.
Sunday:
Loafed around the house. Roleplay with Kat in the evening, finished off Kat's Wild West game, although Toreador Pete wasn't able to make it due to a family emergency and Willow and Justin had sat out this section due to pressure of study and work. Oh well, next game is back to Jamie's Five Rings game where we get to pursue naughty people across the mountains.
Monday:
Yesterday was another quiet day, followed by a very good meal out with John and Laura at the Thai Dragon, which they hadn't been to before and thoroughly enjoyed. We always have excellent fun with John and Laura, this meal being a rematch after the last meal at the Ashiana a couple of months or so ago. This time we were reasonably restrained with the alcohol though, it being a work day today and all!

Date: 2007-04-10 01:43 pm (UTC)We all have characters (6 of us) and three of the group take it in turns to run chunks. I "own" London, Paris and New York, Kat "owns" Africa and other rural / wild areas & runs chunks set there, Jamie "owns" the middle east and Eastern Europe. We have a few shared NPC's but as the group tend to travel a lot it work's quite well.
Have played Deadlands though, about 12 years ago. It was okay. Kat played a talking puma IIRC.

Date: 2007-04-10 01:59 pm (UTC)It's not WOD2, it's the Ghouls expansion, running off 3rd Ed Vampire the Masquerade. We bought WOD2 and Vampire expansions, but didn't like so have never actually played it.
We use the 3rd Ed rules for lots of games unrelated to Vampire anyway. Kat's CSI Ankh-Morpork was based on Dark Ages Character Sheets and the 3rd Ed rules (ignoring magic / disciplines etc).
