It wasn't DG - it was standard CoC. I remember a TPK because they wouldn't trust each other when the mythos nastiness started showing up...

From the outset, my character's philosophy was "there is nothing supernatural in Mother Russia." His goal was to impress Party bosses by getting the factory back in working order. Every time he found a document or other evidence that suggested something supernatural was going on, he locked it in his office, which he had guarded at all times under the threat of death.

That's pretty good. I was hoping for something completely insane like "shivved other PC with an icicle when they tried to run from the monster".

I'm pretty sure I killed at least a few "traitors" before the Colour showed up.

Was this the machine tractor station scenario?  I've read it, but haven't played/GMd it.

Yes, that was the scenario. It was an interesting game because it was just Karee and I because Jason flaked out. I always wanted to play the scenario again as the same character just to see how long it would be until the party turned on me.

It's where all the cool kids go to hang out.

So, what's this I hear about a RPPR game/meet-up?

We meet up on Thursday night and have a crazy nerd fest. Last year we went out to eat together then played some Call of Cthulhu.

Laughs where had, stories where shared, vendettas against certain talented artists where formed. Good times.

Last year we met in the "bar" of the Embassy Suites.

The "Michigan Avenger" sounds like a real winner. Too bad I'm not in that game.

I'm in Caleb's though! Now if only I knew how to do russian or german accents. :/

Depending on how sick I am of it after running to for money I might try running it off the books if people want to play it.

I'm so down for a meetup. Dragging some of my group members to it as well.. I mean they are part of the Community Podcast.

Thursday night indeed then. Is there a dress code? God forbid I appear in my street clothes when everyone else has their Sunday best on.


And as for characters in Caleb or Ross' games, I want the most ineffectual.

If your a big bad ass like me and Aaron then you are required to wear a hawaiian shirt. Otherwise nothing that shows off body parts nerds shouldn't show off and I think we'll all be cool.

Of course, this is Ross and Tom's party so maybe they'll want to make us all do something "different".
