So I was at AKon this weekend DMing RPGA rounds of D&D. To be honest, I was dreading it, but aside from a very sore throat or possibly a slight cold as a result, it wasn’t nearly as bad as I had expected. I was only there Friday and Saturday, so I still got to sleep in and relax on Sunday. Out of the 6 rounds I was there, I got to play two and judge four. I only killed one player, sent five to prison and scared a few noobs in an intro mod or two. I was supposed to sleep at a Days Inn near the con, but after I realized that I’d forgotten my special pillow, my phone was dead, and there were already four people in a two bed room, I decided 5 hours of quality sleep was better than 6 hours of tossing and turning.
Sunday, Heather and I watched a shit ton of movies. We watched two that I recorded on Replay TV, then she went outside and I tried to play WoW, but I was still sleepy and I couldn’t get anyone to play with me. So I gave up, went outside to read my book in the hammock and eventually fell asleep. After I woke up, we went inside and watched two Netflix movies. Yeah, that’s a lazy Sunday for ya.
Yesterday, I actually got some good WoW time in. Did Stratholm a second time, trying to score some Abomination Stitches, but had horrible luck on my rolls (the only roll-off I won, was when no one else was rolling and I won by default). I did get some Lightorge Leggings, which if you don’t know is really good for Paladins – really good, but no stitches. Guess I gotta go back. I need ten of those suckers.
But it may be hard to get Raids together as today is the release of Battlegrounds!

Oh man – it is isn’t it? I need to read up on that.
Hehe, the abomination stitchings are the easy part too. 😐 Try getting a Pristine Hide of the Beast. An uber rare hide acquired from skinning with a knife that is itself an uber rare drop. Not to mention the Skins of Shadow, which there is only one of per run through Scholomance. Oh, and the 300g gold it costs once you’re even lucky enough to get all the components.
I gave up on that quest long ago with my rogue. 😮
Well, I’m not doing a rogue armor quest, and the supplies aren’t that bad… I just wish I’d gotten at least one stitching.
I need to play again more, I’ve been catching up on Console games that I put off until I finished, like KOTORII and Suikoden IV
As far as the DMing and Judging the events, that sounds like something I would enjoy, I’ve just had so many negative experiences with players that I still cringe to think of playing pen and paper D&D again.
Its only 50 gold. The stitchings will come. I have all of mine, now I just need shadowskins and the hide. I need to do more scholo and ubrs raids. I’m really tired of the baron runs, but that is what most people want to do.
what’s only 50 Gold?
