So IJdo and I went to the UK for Pubcon, a one day gaming convention organized in Southampton. Originally it was supposed to be the entire Dutch Invader crew, but Wendy and Arno couldn’t come along because of Arno’s health. That was a bummer of epic proportions. It wasn’t even entirely sure I could make [...]

I got a new job It’s quite a shiny thing, this job, and I spent the past few weeks feeling quite nervous about getting it or not. Hell, I was a nervous wreck. But that’s all cool now. Because I got the job
So, what does this mean?

Yesterday I ran a game for the first time. It was not a complete disaster Full report will follow later, just wanted to jot a few things down before I forget them:

All in all: good show. Pacing was excellent, much enjoyment was had by all.
I need to review the characters. Zina didn’t [...]

Didn’t get much brainstorming for Indiecon and other games done this weekend, unfortunately. On one hand that’s ok because I haven’t even managed to finish the entire troupe of badguys yet, but on the other hand I would’ve liked to playtest it a little at least.
Ah well… I’ll get to playtest it on the 13th, [...]

Guess what? This whole ‘temp job with options for further employment’? Has no further options. No space or time available for me to do my graduation project. Chances of me getting a fulltime contract any time soon? slim to none. No, wait, let’s make that none.
So now I’m pissed off, because they lead me on [...]

Something cool: Dailymugshot
Other than that, it feels like I’ve reached some kind of breakthrough with my heinous bitch colleague. Not that she’s less of a bitch, but maybe I’m just getting better at ignoring her. Either way, it is time for things to chance. Didn’t get a chance to talk to the dude I need [...]
