Game Briefing for AA
Starting June 3rd 2001 ending Jan 4th 2003
| Game # 1 | Those That Remain Part I of II | 6/3/2001 |
| "This game ended up less like a game and more like a mini-convention" | Pics | |
| Location: Todd Worrell in SW Portland Oregon | ||
| GMs: Simone Cooper, Dan Christensen, Todd Worrell, Kevin Clark, Sarah, James, Kevin Seeber | ||
| Players: Eric, Jeff, Ameer, Guy, Dennis, John, Thaddeus, Vrin, Cindy | ||
| A raining Sunday in Portland. (Who would have thought) The best moment
of the day for me was about three in the afternoon when I realized it was
all working. WHEW! The Fellow GMs worked really well and they were
the ones that made the day work. GMs room was in the Garage on the
Main floor and it was a mess because a room mate was moving. It ended up
to be perfect. Something we did not think would be important was the
note board we left up for the Fellow GMs and GMs to mark. This was
perfect. We were able to leave notes for one another without running
around.

| Game # 1 B | Those That Remain Part II of II | 6/17/2001 |
| "Why won't you take my trump calls!" | Pics | |
|
Location: Simone & Guys in N. Portland |
||
| GMs: Simone Cooper, Dan Christensen, Todd Worrell, Kevin Clark, Kevin Seeber, Irene | ||
|
|
||
| No rain for part B it was a nice summer day. Outside on the drive way ended up to be the important zone. The GMs room was a back bedroom not down stairs as Todd had thought. With as much as we are going in and out of the room we would have passed out going up and down stairs. The GM bulletin board was again a valuable tool. With So many people in the house it was crazy stuff going on in every room, Devine Chaos. Thanks for hosting Simone and Guy. | ||
| Game #2 | The Powers That Be | 07/29/2001 |
| "It cost how much?" | Pics | |
| Location: Eric, Jeff and Kevin Seebers Apt Complex | ||
| GMs: Simone Cooper, Dan Christensen, Todd Worrell, Sarah, Kevin Seeber, Irene | ||
| Players: Eric, Jeff, Ameer, Guy, Dennis, John, Thaddeus, Vrin, Cindy | ||
| Ok what is the deal with the overcast weather? you tell me but over cast and rainy seems like a standard? Can a role-playing game change the weathers. Call it strange but here we are on the 29th of July and it was a nippy day of sprinkles and misty rains. Had two apartments for rotating on going events and a third for the Royal council and the Bank of Amber/Gm room. I had no idea how the location would work for the event but I have to tell you that it fit like a glove. If I would have designed a spot for the game it would not have been as good as what we had. | ||
| Game #3 | Acceleration | 8/25/2001 |
| "Hey what happened to your leg?" | Pics | |
| Locations: Simone and Guys, Kevin Seebers, Fort Williamson everyone came together at Fort Williamson for the Coronation | ||
| GMs: Simone Cooper, Dan Christensen, Todd Worrell, Kevin, Kevin Clark | ||
| Players: Eric, Jeff, Ameer, Guy, J Williamson, J. White, Thaddeus, Vrin, Cindy and Irene | ||
| Well it caught the players off guard and I have to admit that I rather liked the results. We had four games in three different locations and it caught the players buy surprise. This was the first game that I really got a good chance to run as a GM and it made me happy. We gave the players a lot of information and let them make their own path. | ||
| Game #4 | The Price of Peace | 10/7/2001 |
| "This is the ugly side of polotics... The Amber side" | ||
| Location: Kevin Clarks very Apartment NW Portland | ||
| GMs: Simone Cooper, Dan Christensen, Todd Worrell, Sarah & James, Kevin Seeber, Kevin Clark, Amber Cook, | ||
| Players: Eric, Jeff, Ameer, Guy, John, John, Vrin, Cindy and Irene MIA The Thad man ok his wife was having his child the least he could have done was name it after one of the GMs | ||
| It was raining (Ok it's Oregon) and when it was realized that there would be 18 of us in this apartment it seemed that it would be too small. Then once we started it all seemed to work out. There is something about a game where everyone can see that everyone else is in motion that keeps them all in motion. Thaddeus could not make it something to do about a wife having a baby or something. I guess we could give him a one game pass. | ||
| Game #5 | Awaken the Giants | 01/26/02 |
| "This is the information dump episode" | ||
| Location: Sara and James | ||
| GMs: Simone Cooper, Dan Christensen, Todd Worrell, Sarah & James, Kevin Seeber, Kevin Clark, Amber Cook | ||
|
Players: Eric, Jeff, Ameer, Guy, J.
Williamson,
Vrin, Cindy and Irene, Thaddeus MIA John White
|
||
| Despite illness, snows and a long delay this game went off perfectly. Missing was John White the Pontiff. 9 Players total and 8 GMs total, you have to like that ration. I have to say that the GM to player ratio was almost as good as the snack to player ration, man the food table was full. Sara and James had the perfect venue for the game we faced. The game is turning the corner on the half way mark and all the players are up to speed. How cool is that. Thanks you all | ||
| Game #6 | Lucky number 6 | 3/3/2001 |
| "Weddings always depress me" | ||
| Location: Simone and Guys | ||
| GMS: Simone , Dan, Todd , Sarah & James, Kevin Seeber, Kevin Clark, Amber, Habeeb and Carrie | ||
| Players: Eric, Jeff, Ameer, Guy, J. Williamson, Vrin, Cindy, Thaddeus, John White MIA Irene | ||
| I had went up to the tri-cities and ran the thread for episode 6 for Irene. It was very effective and I can say that I could not have worked that into the game. So even though Irene was MIA was not at the game she had already played this episode out. This game was held at Simon and Guys and the weather was awesome. Last session over a month ago had snow this episode had sun and we played much of it outside. There was a ton of food and the many of the players dressed up for the royal wedding. Wait many of the GMs dressed up for the wedding as well. The Game was like a wedding on earth. Lots of family you never knew you had. Lots of gossip and a few tears. | ||
| Game #7 | The Ways Unknown | 7/9/2002 |
| "You did what!" | ||
| Location: New and improved Fort Williamson | ||
| GMS: Simone, Dan, Todd , Sarah, Kevin Seeber, Kevin Clark, Amber, Habeeb MIA GMs: Carrie, James | ||
| Players: Eric, Jeff, Ameer, Guy, J. Williamson, Vrin, Irene, Thaddeus, John White MIA Cindy | ||
| Well this game did not feel as good as the others. It was a difficult game to coordinate because people had things to do that no matter how hard you tried could not fit together. There was also the fact that it was warm and that many players finished at different times. Also there were some distractions at the end and we had to push a bit. Oh well not every game can be a home run. It was still far from a flop. | ||
| Game #8 |
Secrets untold |
8/25/2002 |
| "Who would have thought it?" | ||
| Location: Dan's back yard of love | ||
| Players: Eric, Jeff, Ameer, Guy, John Whte, Vrin, Irene, Thaddeus, Cindy | ||
| Well this game was a difficult game to GM in that the GMs really had nothing to do. We sat around and were waiters and servants ad the players debated who would sit on the throne. A throne war without a war and where everyone was highly motivated to see the Amber was served well. Who won? well ... believe it ....it was Phaedra. No one not even Cindy playing Phaedra would have guessed this. | ||
| Game #9 | The Hammer of fate | 9/29/2002 |
| "So much to do so little time" | ||
| Location: Eric, Jeffs and Seebers | ||
| Players: Eric, Jeff, Ameer, Guy, John Whte, Vrin, Irene, Thaddeus, Cindy | ||
| Ok | ||
| Game #10 | A whisper of real | |
| Game #11 | Rest not my child | |
| Second to last Game | ||
