Back

I am back from Origins. I had a great time. Full report is in the works.

Very quick summary:
Saw various LTNS folk again, and finally met the Looneys and their Toast Society ilk. Got into the Zendo tournament finals, and had my most profound Zendo moment to date. Played the best game of RAMbots ever (even though I lost). Appreciated the fact that each of my three present Boston Warren companions also made it to exactly one tournament final, all in different Icehouse games. Played in the Thirteenth International Icehouse tournament, and had an... interesting time. Attended highly inspirational game design talks led by Reiner Knizia, Jacob Davenport, and Kory Heath. Got violently ill and then got better. Had more fun than I have ever had before at a con or con-like event.

Most profound Zendo moment: All colours have an equal number of pieces? Or whatever that second-to-last round was that you won? Good job guessing that with only, like, 8 koans or something insane like that.

It was nice to meet you and I'm looking forward to seeing you again!

p.s. Origins did indeed kick major ass.

Enquiring minds want to know.

P.S.: Nice job getting into the finals, BTW.

Yeah, I wanna know too (:

I meant "colours = sizes", not whatever I posted before. That was right when I finally got home from Origins and I was pretty tired.

Whee!
