Last month was White Wolf’s first annual convention, The Grand Masquerade. I decided that I was going, but then saw that half the convention was events for The Camarilla, a LARPing group for White Wolf games. I’d previously ignored the Cam, because of the stigma on LARPing in my roleplaying group, but I figured I’d give it a shot.

To that end, I joined the Philadelphia Domain of the Camarilla, which has games on Saturdays in the Philly area. I went out for a Requiem game, and to my surprise, it didn’t suck! And the people didn’t suck! I’m now playing in both the Requiem and Sabbat game (ie Old and New World Vampire), and it’s a blast! Now I’m in charge of their website, and trying to get the word out (*cough* *cough*)

If you’re in the Philly area, in to Roleplaying, and around on a Saturday, look us up for a game. You (probably) won’t regret it.

Also, I’ve gotten some nifty ideas for a PhillyByNight secret backstory from Tom. Should be up in the near future.

Let’s see:

• Ubucon kicked ass. Met a lot of great people, and I’m motivated for the LoCo team again.
• Moved all my stuff to a new host, Dreamhost. It’s cheaper, more reliable, and has more stuff.
• Moved my blog to a wordpress on my site. I’m tired of my livejournal, and I now have things set up so I can post here and automatically post there
• Sent out an email to the LoCo team, telling them I want to meet. In person. Because we’re all real people, I hope.
• Moved Philly By Night to the new version of Mediawiki, and added more content. You know you want to work on it, so just do it.
• I’m juggling 3 million things, but I’m still sane, some how. Let’s keep it that way if we can.
