I don’t normally gush on this site about anything, but if there was a game of D&D I would have wanted to play in, this would be the game:
Last week, I spent an entire day playing Dungeons & Dragons Fourth Edition with some of my friends. Big whoop, you say. So did I. Ah, but I played in Seattle. With Gabe and Tycho from Penny-Arcade. And Scott Kurtz from PVP. And, to really twist the +3 dagger in your back, our DM was Chris Perkins from Wizards of the Coast, who made an adventure specifically for us to play. For the crushed peanuts and maraschino cherry topping on this sundae of HAWESOME, I got to play a class from the unreleased Player’s Handbook 2. We recorded the entire session for a podcast, which will be released early next year.
Yeah, fuck them all for not inviting me. Am I an animal of some sort? A beast to be ignored? I think not! I am…well, I’m just some random guy on the internet full of random guys, but still I am pretty awesome…
I don’t even really have anything to say here, except if you guys need another, I’m free and I will bring supplies for the group. I’ll even say it’s because I care, but really it’s to butter up the DM. I’m sneaky like that.
Wil, call me. /me makes hand phone pantomime.
What Would Matt Do: You know what I’d really like to do? Play some damn D&D 4.0 already. My group wasn’t interested, then there was a fallout and now I’m splintered off playing with another group…who doesn’t have any 4.0 books and really doesn’t want to play it. Woe is me!
I was psyched to play it this summer over skype, but then the group fell apart, and skype doesn’t match up to in-person play, anyway.
Sigh.
Yeah, I tried a similar thing with IRC. It just doesn’t hold up long distance. I’m going to have to go to my local gaming store and play with crazies most likely. Damn them crazies!
I’m not sure if Tracebacks are automatically added, so I wanted to let you know I posted a comment to this, of sorts, on my own blog: http://capnjohnsblog.blogspot.com/2009/01/getting-your-fix.html
