Quote of the Week from my gaming group...

[matrix3]

"I have the crayfish search for it"

Hmm...sometimes, I read a little too fast for my own good, and words start to blur together a bit. I initially read that as "I have the crayfish cavity search it." Nasty mental images...

Quotes from Hero Con 2007:

One of the heroes takes 4 STUN and responds with: "Can your husband come out and play."

And the follow up to that scene, the same PC gets hit later for an attack that rocks him back on his heels and does 20 STUN. He shakes his head to clear it, looks at the Electrical blaster and says,

"So, you're the husband?"

I was pleased to break you up with Grenadier's "mini-rant" about how one doesn't use snipers in the British Army -- after all, this isn't America for God's sake!

[Remjin]

That was only a small portion of the lines. Venture Brothers Hero and Laser Squid Nemesis had piles more, but I wasn't part of those games.

I'm sure. Any quote made here is usually just a culling from a much larger body of amusing anecdotes... and that's just from a regular game, so at a con, I imagine there was much that could have been quoted. How many people showed up, anyway?

[Susano]

Roughly 35. Maybe 40.

Michael Surbrook: "My first two die rolls were an '18'."
Darren Watts: "Well, you've made a good wizard or a paladin."

In my old gaming group, anytime someone rolled an 18, they'd say "I'm starting a D&D character!"

Which reminds me of an old friend's comment on Hero System that he made Many Years Ago: "If you don't pay the points, you can't hit the toilet."

Hopefully, though, he didn't sell it back to its mother that way.

"Yeah, you're getting him back... on the installment plan."

Love it! It even sounds like something Ariad would say. (but no, he didn't. He's not suicidal.)

From tonights Trivia Contest at the local pub:

"We'd all rather have Golden Globes than SAGs."

Also Overheard at the Venture Bros Game at Herocon:

John (Hank) after a scare:"Oh no the ghost indians are back in my pants. I think they are building a swiming pool"

GM Darren (Phantom Limb): "You know Dr. Girlfriend, you can always rejoin me and we could rule the guild together!"
Jim (Dr. Girlfriend): "Not a chance. There is a reason they call you a half man, and it has nothing to do with the missing legs."

[DEFCON Clown]

No that didn't set him off but when my fellow Henchmen taunted him about it that set him off.

[Darkfire]

I guess they cut him off at the knees. I know I know I just failed my save to resist.

This is what happens when your working on less than four hours of sleep. you could say I shorted myself. damn I just can't help myself.

[Major Tom]

Yeah, that does seem like the long and short of it, all right...
