💭 What happened last week? 💭
Last Week in LARP
- Impworld!
Sir Grubworth Foxtrot and The Wanderer were sent to dismantle Impworld, a park constructed in the chaos of everything happening in Kitaland.
Impworld was a wonderful place filled with free booze, dubiously legal market sales and definitely unsafe rides. The wave pool was operated by a motion dragon, the bailey ball was operated by a cannon, and the staff are all imps. Go figure.
The party made their way through this death trap of a place, looking for the owner, and setting up a way to burn the damned place to the ground. Their search led them to the deeps, where they (well, Grubworth) threatened a site manager to let them into the Impworld offices, where they met the founder.
Euge-imp Mulvehill was not exactly happy about these two strangers threatening him to move his park, but after a convincing argument (his guards were killed, though he didn't help much, what with seeing them on fire for the sake of it was funny), he decided to maybe move his business over the river to Lupanum.
Last Week in Wargames
- Gaslands: now featuring the Car Graveyard™️, and the final collision killing everyone and ensuring that Nobody Wins!!!🎉🎉🎉(courtesy of Teri in the discord)
Last Week in Boardgames
- A Successful game of Pandemic perhaps alluded by our treasurer Maddie!
Extra Bonus End Bit
Your Overload vanquishes any other name for its name is 🐍Sneak the Snake🐍 for always and forever!!!!
Hehehe in an almost unanimous poll (84%) the discord voted to keep Sneak as our mascot's name. Sure saves me from having to change the name of the upcoming quizzes.
For next week get your sensational quiz brains 🧠on for “Sneak's Sneaky Surprise End Bit! Sneak the Snake Quiz time!”(say that 10 times faster- because I fail at it). Hiss I know it’s kinda long but so was "Feldspar Buttons FireBreath III’s Funky Beloved Fun."🐉 Deal with it I guess? But in all seriousness thank you to everyone who took part in the vote!🩷Sneak is very happy!!
Quote of the week:
“Snake? Snake? SNAAAAAAAAKE!!!” - The Colonel, Metal Gear Solid 2🐍
Have a Lovely week, and see you next time! 🩷💙
