At 7PM the second round of Intercon signups go live!

I'm going to shoot for the Saturday afternoon run of The Return to Gray, a post-WWII small-player-count historical larp written by twilighttremolo. It sounds very interesting and intense, and I know of at least one person I'd like to play with already signed up for it. It's only got a handful of slots, however, so I'd better be quick on the uptake.

Brockhurst, my Edwardian/WWI-era Downton Abbey-inspired game running Friday night, currently has four players out of a total of nineteen. I'm hoping it will fill this round, but we'll see. I'm confident I won't have any trouble ultimately having enough players, but it's validating to see people eager to play. Hell, Resonance, which I'm not running but for which I was a writer, is also running Friday night, is on its eighth run and still managed to max out in the first round. :-) Her Eternal Majesty's Privy Council on Sunday morning only has one player so far, but silly Sunday games always are people's last concern.

Intercon also needs more games, as the con is growing in attendance and it's harder to have enough player slots. So if you could bid your game for Intercon it would be greatly appreciated! Running a game is a great way to enjoy yourself in a timeslot where no other game appealed to you, and it gets you a comped membership to the con!

Otherwise, be sure to sign up tonight! Make certain you set your alarms!

I almost forgot in the flurry of activity surrounding my show, but tonight Intercon O signups open at 7PM! Here is my current plan.

I am running Brockhurst, mine and Bernie's Downton Abbey-inspired WWI-era historical larp, set in the Breaking History universe that also contains Mrs. Hawking and The Stand, on Friday night! I hope you'll sign up if you haven't played. Or, if you have and nothing else appeals to you in that slot, I'm looking for GMs to help me run it! Let me know if you're interested.

I am also running Her Eternal Majesty's Privy Council for the Continual Funding of the Mad Arts and Sciences, the council-style horde larp parodying the steampunk subculture I helped write with AE Games, on Sunday morning. A very funny, silly game, which I never saw the first run of it, so it will be fun to finally witness how it goes!

I would like my first signup to be for Spring River, the latest offering from AE Games. I always enjoy their work, so I'd be excited to play it. Unfortunately I may not be able to be near a computer at 7PM when things open. I've asked Bernie to help me if he's able, but we'll see. Fingers crossed that I can get in one way or another!

That might be it, I'm not sure yet. I wouldn't mind a light Intercon, but I'm open to the possibilities. :-)

Don't forget to sign up! What are you hoping to get?

After second-round Intercon signups, I am now signed up for A Turn on the Radiance Rose and The Bloody Harvest of Pomona. That will be enough for me, what with also running Break a Leg and Resonance. The latter filled up first round, while the former now has three out of ten. And then there's the new game I'm part of as a writer though won't be running, which got nine signups tonight.

We had a meeting tonight for the writing of this, the newest Alleged Entertainment game, Her Eternal Majesty's Privy Council for the Continual Funding of the Mad Arts and Sciences. In the spirit of Time Travel Review Board, this game is a parody of the steampunk genre where the horde will approach a council to plead their case for getting funding for their crazy, vaguely Victorian-related project. I was having a hard time figuring how to approach writing cast and horde characters for this game until I realized that everything can just be mocking some of the more absurd aspects of Victorian history and culture. I am pretty well versed in that particular subject, and as much as I love it, there's also a lot that's absurd about it. And it was a lot of fun coming up with funny spins on Victorian references. There may or may not be a sentient syphilis virus in the game due to a terrible suggestion from me.

Maybe I can ever sneak a Mrs. Hawking reference in there. You know I want to...
