Yes.

Apparently Shada will be in Sheffield, so he wont be coming.

:lol: Highly entertaining!

Funnily enough, I've actually been trying to put together my memories of the Eclipse Phase events myself. I'll try and post them later.

Things I do remember:

Eclipse Phase is the only game that didn't include a blue dragon of some sort (looking back on it I should have made the AI's avatar a blue dragon, just for lulz).
5punks hate wolves and want them all to be dead.
D&D 4th Edition is shit, and the PA guy should stick to drawing. He is excellent at that. He is bad at writing adventures.

I'm kind of glad we played the 4th Edition game though, because at least now I'm not working off supposition and other peoples opinions. I can see what they were trying to do with it, and a couple of bits of it were good ideas. A lot of it was terrible though. Lets hope D&D Next is better.

Brilliant! :lol:

Did Shadowrun end with all of you waking up in the shower as Bobby Ewing?

And the D&D characters were playing World of World of Warcraft.

We killed ALL those fucking wolves! Ha!

My mage characters spent a lot of time running around in a panic, the D&D one ordered a lizardman to touch the sapphire and it died, and the SR one laid some wiggly finger waste to a spirit.

My wooden titan shot things with a bow and did magical shouting.

My fury morph kicked over an evil gonk, shot some gribblies from space hell without even losing any cool and also shot berk's space Cephalopod in the back of the head.

About the only thing I like from 4th Ed is that numbers are higher - more HP/more damage done. It doesn't make any difference but it certainly makes hard things seem harder and your damage more meaningful.
