Captains Blog: Brown with corn. Plus bonus: Stupid too much to drink

Sweet, Sweet, gaming. Yesterday Ja -eL and I had some good gaming fun @ the gamesday event. Johnny Led Picket's Charge against the union with brutal losses, but was able to deafeat the union in a close 6-5 victory. Picket led with a few cards moving almost all the confederate troops to the center. Then played a "Forced March" in the center. This was followed by a "Counter Attack" by the union. Then the south played a couple small cards while the north led a couple of devastating "Leadership" charges. Next Ja -El led with an "All out Offensive" (Reshuffle), followed by a union led "Forced March". This was followed by another "Forced March" play by the south. This sealed the fate of the north. Carnage galore.

Battlecry was followed up by Iron Dragon. Two random guys jumped in, including a super rail game fanatic that swore we would be done in under 2 hours after I said the game takes 3-4 hours. I turned to johnny and said, "bullshit". Just because he plays the game all the time online does not mean that a bunch of amatures would be quick at mapping routes and patoffs. Even with his prolific and often quite helpful assistance, if not impatient to the point to frustration at times, the game had two Paul Barrs. All said and done: 3hrs 30min. Three cheers to johnny for defeating the wily old veteran one round before he would have won.

Went to a flat party, turned bar visit (Where I had that one extra beer that I didnt need... You know the one), turned dance club visit. D'oh! Didnt get home until 5:30. If it hadnt been for me driving I would have left at 2am. But they decided to go out to the club and I was too buzzing to drive home so I went with them to wait it out. Ahhh yes the club meat market. Blah! The cool thing though is that when we came back from the club we got pizzas. How sweet is it that a pizza place was open @ 4am? While we were eating, one of our friends who does DJ work started spinning records on her setup. Cool shit. She is pretty darn good at it. Overall it was a very good day.
