fyi, it’s “grisly”, not “grizzly”.
I’ll leave my spelling pedantry at that 🙂 Very much a fan, keep up the good work!

Oy! Thanks, @Groxx! Fixed!
The Invisible Phan
“grizzly” = greyish; “grisly” (from the same root as “gristle”) = guts type stuff you probably don’t want to see … you have to wonder if whoever named the bears had a sense of humour …
As for the poor larper … “come get me out of here right now or I be using your name really loud over the intercom REALLY soon!” of course then he’s gonna realize that if he doesn’t do in the Bollycks then he’s a liability to Norg … so hang up and sic’em on Norg when he comes trying to keep him quiet and use the diversion to escape?
Awesome, I’m so glad you’re coming back to CONvergence (Nerdi Gras) this year! It was fun to meet you last year, my wife and I played a game of Betrayal at House on the Hill with you and our mutual friend Hedgie. See you there!
Prairie
Hopefully I can get to Convergence and act like a dork. It’s what I do best.
It’s going to be hotter than 15 goats in a tin shack there. Be prepared for Minnesotans bitching about the weather. Oh, wait… we always bitch about the weather…
Muzhik
@Prairie, that’s really not fair. After all, what other state in the country has a season named for its’ main activity…
… Road Repair. (It’s that season between the two weeks of Spring and the three weeks of Summer, just before the one week of Autumn — when the snow falls, that’s why people call it “Fall” — followed by the five months of Winter. Besides, it’s so much easier to fix the roads when the asphalt is naturally melted and flowing from the heat.)
You know what would be a great title for this book? NPCs die second
Night-Gaunt
I admit I didn’t want to see this. I don’t find it funny. It is still done well and I think I know why, these are the guys that failed. The other one that didn’t work out. Sorry this is more of a downer to me.

Little unfortunate to have four of them taken out at once and remove the chance to have them slowly killed off one at a time over 4 or 5 strips…. hmm, I think I need to get out more 😛
Night-Gaunt
On top of that the only two females are blasted away first. Bummer squared. But I assume they are just to show us the probable real thing that would have happened to them. Or better yet when all the wrong choices are made.

lol ? we’ll see …
Looking at your poster, have you been in the Kansas City area this year? Or planning on it? It’s hard to keep track of the cons…
…soup.
That should have gone after Seth’s post.

Those Bollix are about to learn the horror of latex allergy.
Aw, I thought we’d have more nerd jokes. Instead they’re all dead. Oh, well.

Man, I know James’ prize is supposed to involve getting killed in the comic, but now I want to see him survive this!
Yes! Vote to save James!

Hmmm…no update today.
Wait. Today is wednesday!? Eek. Um. I’m in a van. In Montanna. Strip up tomorrow. Long story. But I’m alive and will be at Convergence Con.
Tom is probably drunk.
Alive and in Montana? A likely excuse. Just for that, here’s some beat poetry for you:
Some people never go insane
what truly horrible lives
they must lead.
