Extra Life 2014

Tuesday had a blast participating in Extra Life this year. Not only did we play some great games, but we raised US$1,160.00

The Day started early & I did not get any pictures of that, but will try to get a blog post up about it. Our first game was Cody running a Tsuro match for the family.

Next Jack and I played some Standard Magic

It was fun, but he crushed me. Again. I need to work on my standard deck.

Then we headed down to Magic & Monsters to do some drafting.

I played Brian my first round

My initial kick off role was not great

I was able to beat him Game One & it took so long that time was called turn two of game two, so I won the match, basically on time.

We had to call for Judge! Twice. I will post those conversations separately.

Stompy

Ok, so in Dungeons and Dragons an Elephant costs 200gp. Of course, my players bought one as soon as possible.

The Elephant is named Steve. He was called Stompy by the Kobolds. I drew a picture.

Which was not very good--so I asked the +Crit Juice team to draw me a picture. This is what they sent me & it is awesome.

Actual Play Hoard of the Dragon Queen--D&D Encounters S19 S9

Hoard of the Dragon Queen--D&D Encounters S19 S9

Another great week of D&D Encounters at Comic Quest--we had M&M's this week!

I was obsessed with the Felony Song this week, which no one at the table remembered

Also, my players purchased an Elephant (which I assume that most D&D Encounters did--I mean for 200 gold, why not!)

Which lead me to reflect on this horrible video of a man getting his head stuck in an elephants butt--which may be fake, you should not watch, but...

Comic Quest still has a lot of Magic Players every week, even after the Drew Event!

DM Nathan had a very full table again this week

I had Scott

Christie & David

Alan.

Andy.

Lisa

Camille

And Garrett who I somehow failed to get on film.

I DM from the end and have plenty of space for my massive D20's

The players are crowded, but I think that they do have enough space.

Marc printed out these fantastic maps

Which really made things move smoothly--you will have to watch the video to understand why I was not covering anything up.

I am still using the Pathfinder iCrit & iFumble apps which are awesome!

No change in the nails today

And we had some great Crits

Really looking for next week--the Dungeon Crawl section of this is really fun to run.

Khans of Tarkir Game Day @ Comic Quest

Jack & I headed to Comic Quest for Khans of Tarkir Game Day.

We were an hour late--event started at 11:00 AM & we thought it was at Noon--but they had started 30 minutes late so we were able to drop in fairly easily.

My first game was against Jack. He took the Bye and I took the lose.

His deck is very good--Jeskai with some wild Mantis Riders and other threats. I am playing Abzan Kind of Lame because I do not have all of the pieces to make it good.

My second match was against Stephen who is playing Minotaur's. I was confident and had fun playing him--I missed my green drops & got run over, but it was fun.

Round three I played against FNM Superstar Drew who was playing some odd Combo deck that never really went off--it was a very good time.
