July 2010 Highlights

[Xenas]

Friday: Pre-event

Meeting a bunch of new people before the event and getting to know them OOG.

Help two lost souls get around the camp.

Lay On:

Making a pact with both Peatros and Luna to protect a mage lacking in memories, and being cursed if I failed.

Hanging out at the inn, then seeing devil.

Forming a shield wall with Wolfgar against said devils.

Screaming retreat after said devils walked WAY too close.

Asking Magnus to train me as a witch hunter, and pondering how to answer his question for two days.

Saturday:

Being woken up by a horde of demons and fighting them off in nothing but a wifebeater and briefs.

Getting dressed, then serving drinks at the bar.

The drinking games in the Inn.
   Travantian Drinking Game
      Rule 1: If you get hit, take a drink.
      Rule 2: If you die, take a drink.
      Rule 3: If you take a drink, take a drink!

Going out and protecting the "Littlest Ranger" as she gathered blueberries.

Feast!

Main Mod:

Being a flaming pile of pissed off (aka Infernus) for Main Mod

Recycling like 8 times. Exhausting, but so fun.

Sleeping at midnight on the dot

Sunday: NPC Shift

Sleeping in till 9:30.

hualling a** to get to my shift.

Seeing Chris's dancing.

RP'ing sick lizard kin, and having a great RP with Diane on how to be a druid.

THANK YOU CHRIS FOR BRINGING ENSLAVED ICE ELEMENTAL!!!

I loathe the heat, and it helped me survive the weekend.

Thank you everyone who returned bottles, refilled them and passed them out all weekend.  In the heat, this was really important to keep up - keeping everyone hydrated.

Thanks to all volunteers who helped create, set up, serve, and most of all, clean up feast. 
We had everything cleaned in less than an hour - even in the heat.

I was astounded at the natural special effects and lighting for Main Mod - I could tell the bad guys from my allies.  I was actually able to shoot a lot of arrows at folks.

berry picking with the littlest Ranger was fun - teaching her how to find berries on the bushes was a lot of fun.
 
The Sunday RP with the lizard kin was great - and their willingness to have one of their members learn to be a druid, and actually going through the RP of teaching him. . . was the highlight of me weekend.

[Martin Bridge]

An awesome first event for me, thanks adam for putting me in a good position and thanks Wally for your help saturday. Sorry i couldn't stay

Lowlights
Almost spraining my ankle after the power outage on friday
having to leave saturday before feast
alone in my cabin in npc land.
not having a fleshed out npcer.

Highlights
Hookah - I am actually buying my own now. rp around that was enjoyable
KR coffee, best ever I have tasted
rping with shamus, hamish and so on. All those whom I rped with were awesome.
the game, saturday morning. Clearing the whole side of the inn, then getting waylaid and insta-killed. My corpse got gutted and then thrown over the railing by hamish after 2 deaths ingame. Then finally morphing back into Robyn.
friday night game....father edwin getting his token stuck on the game accidently and leaving abruptly.

For what it is worth, Martin, the coffee is Berkely & Jensen's (the BJ club) Kona blend and is only $17 for 1.1 kilos.  It is the standard I purchase for KR.

Lastly, a HUGE thank you to the kitchen staff who, throughout the event kept everyone hydrated as well as possible, put up with our rowdy shenanigans, fed us, cleaned up after us, and were generally made of win and cookies.  Thank you all.

This deserves some reiteration.  The folks who man our kitchen throughout the weekend.  You guys are a true highlight for me.  You are definitely 'made of win'.  I'm not sure of the 'cookies' part.  They're evil, as Kwildar will attest. ;-)

Hahaha as me being one of them I just loved the RP aspect of a goblin serving you rather than the usual crowd xP Though I did get stuck in the kitchen most of the event made the heat outside seem like a spring day. All in all it was awesome fun.

[Xenas]

Aye, agreed. That kitchen was an instant heat stroke.

[Baoyu Kunsai]

Aye, agreed. That kitchen was an instant heat stroke.

Don't you mean Speed Cast, Perfect Aim Heatstroke?

[Tobar]

Don't you mean Speed Cast, Perfect Aim, Double Power Heatstroke?

Fixed.

[Oren Tenderson]

try cooking bacon in the kitchen with your armor on... then talk to me about heatstroke.

>.> lol...

then again the cooking staff were troopers as well, and did spend more time in there than I did, though not in armor.

THE ENTIRE WEEKEND WAS AWESOME!!!
LIZ, ADAM AND GARRETT, YOU GUYS DID SPECTACULAR AND I HAD A BLAST BEING THE MAIN PAWN IN THE SCHEME OF THINGS!!!

As for highlights, well I full-time NPC but let's see...

*Number one and I mean number one had to be James laying in the fire pit just before main mod and talking on the phone with someone's MOM!!!!
*Being the annoying little imp with the dire pets. Sorry to all the gypsies lol.
*Summoning the hellfire crystal, not once but 3 times (armory, kaladonia, drega'mire)
*As for the summoning of the hellfire crystal in Drega'mire (btw everyone was pissed about that lol) I would like to apologize to Vince for not know which cabin he was in and attempting to send my minions in after them. As for part of the rumor after hearing Vince yell "You just f@#$ing told me to go to sleep" I had told one of the demons to leave that building alone. The demon walks away and I hear "It's actually leaving" which Vince responds "Your damn right he is I want to go to bed!" again sorry buddy didn't mean to wake you.
*Seamus DelDragon uses cover of green after having a leg and arm withered, I walk up and ask OOG :
  Me: Can I see you?
  Seamus: Cover of green
  Not really knowing cover of green that well I reply: Can I see you?
  Seamus OOG replies: I hope not!
*Being a Hunter Demon twice was awesome, definately something I want to stay away from as a PC, they are nasty.
*Being sent out as a rogue with two others to protect the painter, If we weren't conspicuous enough already a small hold gets called and everyone in the inn has to take a divine ceremony or 100 divine. Being an NPC I was ok with this but when half of the town drops inside the inn and there are only a few people left standing (the three rogues and the painter seem completely unaffected) I'd ask a few questions.
*Getting to play that same rogue later on In the low level mod was fun until I ran into Cinder and Barrak. Barrak who couldn't see me and Cinder who could see me and everytime I went Invisable proceeded to get me ghanked. It was fun though.
*Jared gets a Waylay off on the painter. Good Job buddy you finally found a use lol jk. But tell me Jared how did you like getting dropped everytime you got healed? (completely unintentional couldn't really see who was who.)
Overall everything was fun and I had a blast, I was happy that even as a full-time NPC (like I always am lol) I was getting recognition from Liz, Adam and Garrett, it made this weekend all worth it. Thanks guys.
