Bids accepted, whee!

Suddenly remembered I had a silver polishing cloth that I got with that bird brooch, and decided to see if it could do any good to my slightly tarnished silver pieces. I was shocked at how much tarnish came off into the cloth on some of them, like my infinity earrings which didn't even look very dull. I had no idea coming into contact with me could cause such corruption. ;-) The piece that really needs it is my silver-set amber necklace, though as much is coming off into the cloth the metal didn't seem to get much shinier. Maybe it just needs a lot more work than I had time to do before needing to leave this morning. Perhaps I'll give it a shot this afternoon.

In pleasing news, our wonderful bid chair (possibly all of bid comm?) [livejournal.com profile] bleemoo just informed me that Alice and Oz have been accepted and will be running this April at Festival of the Larps. Now I may commence bullying everyone I know who hasn't played into signing up. Though there are certainly more than a few experienced larpers I've yet to wrangle into my worlds, my first thoughts are April, [livejournal.com profile] nennivian, and [livejournal.com profile] blendedchaitea, all of whom have expressed at least mild interest. I know [livejournal.com profile] katiescarlett29 has reservations about trying larping, but she is of course welcome and encouraged as well.

Now that bids are getting approved, I am now intensely curious as to what else is going to be running. We're probably a ways away from a schedule being put together yet, but I'm still very interested at what the list currently looks like. I remember [livejournal.com profile] captainecchi  and [livejournal.com profile] electric_d_monk telling me they were rerunning the awesome League of Extraordinary Hogwarts Students (with some additions that sound absolutely fantastic) and [livejournal.com profile] lightgamer was looking in the gamebank for something to bid. If anyone else threw something out there, I'd love to know what it is.

Hi, this is Brian R - found your lj post via facebook.

Alison and I bid (a revised) Redemption and got accepted.

If lightgamer (or anyone else) is still looking for a game to run, he might also check out:

It's a huge list of links to various available larps on RPG.net.

I'm running a game called "Bitter Tears at Sad Mary's Bar and Girl." I haven't heard yet of other bids.

You are, in fact, correct.

I AM THE GREAT AND POWERFUL ENTIRETY OF BIDCOM! ALL SHALL BOW DOWN BEFORE ME AND I SHALL BE LAU-- what's that, [livejournal.com profile] zapf? Yes sir. I'll go back to my hole.
