We Shall Be Free

I killed off the party again. I suppose it was a sort of
appropriate time to do it, being the end of the semester and
all, but I still feel bad. I didn’t intend to kill them
off. It just sorta happened. I think I realized about
halfway through that they were going to die if they didn’t
run away. They just didn’t want to run away. There wasn’t
much I could do at that point. I tried to make the monsters
a little easier, but I couldn’t make them all raise their
hands in surrender. So they are all dead. I plan on
starting a military campaign using the Warcraft d20 rules
and setting the campaign during Warcraft II. I had
complaints about that because it will reduce the amount of
races that we can play with (true, only about a quarter of
the races that are talked about in the books will be
playable…), but I really like that time period of the
Warcraft mythos the best. We’ll see how the campaign turns
out. Either that, or I could run the four part campaign
that Wizards has put out (it starts with the adventure in
the back of the Ebberon book which I ended up killing the
party last time I ran that adventure…). That sounds
interesting and I wouldn’t have to do planning. But I don’t
think the players want to face the doom rats again….we’ll
see what I decide to do.

mmmm….hugs

Finals sucked. Sucked, Sucked, Sucked. And I don’t mean a
little sucked. I mean a lot sucked. I mean a French whore
on video tape sucked. It was that bad. Four take home
tests were a lot more than I thought it was going to be.
Experimental just plain sucked. I handed it in with two
problems unfinished. I just completely blanked on how to do
it and the book wasn’t the least bit helpful in explaining
them. I couldn’t find some of the data for a few of the
Astrophysics problems so I just had to make it up myself.
EM was explained to me by the prof, and yet I still think I
may have screwed up on one of the problems. I didn’t
implement the algorithm in my Data structures final
correctly, which I still haven’t figured out what was wrong
with it. Overall, on a scale from one to suck, I give this
semester’s finals a double suck.

I go home tomorrow (er um…today…). I don’t think it will be
too long after New Years where I’ll be itching to get back
to my apartment. Its not that I want classes to start up
again, because I’m sure I’ll still be sick of them at the
beginning of the semester, but I’ll just be sick of my
family and bored out of my mind. We’ll see, and hopefully
I’ll have at least 2 good weeks before my family drives me
insane once again.

I wonder if I can convince anyone to play D&D with me over
break…

The Sauce now has a coffee table. It is currently sitting
up on end because we don’t have the room to play DDR and
have the coffee table sit on all fours, but I think it will
make a good addition to the apartment (especially
considering we are supposed to get the couch of doom back
next semester).

What games or movies should I bring home? I should beat FFT
over break, but I’m sure that I’m going to renew my WoW
subscription and my addiction will return and FFT will be
put on the shelf again. Maybe someone will give me a game
or movie for Christmas, but I doubt it. Unless Karl knew to
get me MGS3:Subsistance, I doubt anyone knows my tastes in
games. Not to mention, right now the cash is looking more
appealing for a lot of things than the item itself. I’ll
probably bring FFT and a THPS game and Star Ocean and of
course I will have to beat FEAR and Quake 4 over break. I
think I’ll be ok with things…

G’night
