Turkeycon Travel Day
The drive down was nicely uneventful, exactly as it should be, barring a couple bits of traffic and one closed road segment with a seriously backroads detour. But a relatively simple one that cost us little time.
On the drive down, I spent most of my time reading Spirit of the Century, a wonderful FATE-based pulp RPG that nicely mixes traditional and modern NAR-style game mechanics. Also nifty is a "pick up" concept for the game, which allows play with minimal prep time, even most of character generation left to develop in-play. This is one I certainly want to get a chance to try out!
So, anyway, we're arrived, and with some work all connecting to wireless 'net and nicely up and running.
Also, the boardgames are unpacked and interest surveying begun. Play will start around noon on Day 1 (a little more than an hour away as I post this).

I think there's every possibility that my pirate zeppelin game at TBR 2007 will be run using SotC, despite my not having actually bought it yet. From what I've read about it, it sounds like exactly what I was looking for before last year's game.

Yes, I'd actually say it does fit quite well. So, there's a good chance of playing this game without me having to GM it!
I still might well GM it at a Stillpoint game day or some other gathering... but since there is a Stillpoint game day today that I'm missing because I'm in NC not MA, that'll be a few months.
