Blazing Arnold.

Speaking of Bartimus Nobbs, are the lyrics to that song written down anywhere? That song is always the highlight of my weekend.

Highlights:

• Helping the smiths armor up the town, and making some decent starter coin
• Meeting more players, both vets to KR and new
• Getting a welcome reception from the Pedarvin household
• Seeing some real care for the game by staff people
• The Feast! Great entertainment, was surprised at how good the food was (seen some pretty poor feasts in my day) and I give much respect to those who work that part of the event, especially in the heat. /salute.
• Learning more about the world/town history and the pc's in game
• All the new players, its great to join a game that even after many years in existance is still drawing new blood
• The very welcoming atmosphere of many players to someone new to KR. I was amazed at how many people came up to me, engaged me in conversation and even knew my name
• Realizing that the next two events are back to back....woohoo

Lowlights (or better yet, lesser-lights)

• Wearing a ton of armor in 95 degree heat and humidity. Talk about self loathing lol.
• Getting wife-aggro Sat morn and not getting back to the game till 1pm
• Spending so much time smithing and rp'ing that I lost track of what was going on during the event (not a real lowlight, but its a trade-off)
• A few very poor attitudes. Unoftunately one or two bad apples can really overshadow all the other positives.
• Not getting a chance to go swimming (but hey, no one needs to see me shirtless anyway)
• While I had a blast npc'ing the main mod Sat eve,  at the same time, I really wished I could have been pc'ing that shift. Looked like a great battle to be on the other side of too
