Anyone going to AmberCon NW: Is there anything you want me to run?

Thinking about Misery Bubblegum, S/Lay w/Me, Shooting the Moon, Polaris ... other thoughts? I can run basically any "indie game" plus, of course, Amber, but I figure people will probably have plenty of that already.

Given that like %75 of AmberCon games are "it's a mashup!" already, I think maybe I'll stick to one thing at a time.

Conformist!

Seriously, though, I'd say Drifters Escape, since it sounds cool and would sit well with some of the players who like something different. But it might be a touch too different, depending on the other choices are in that particular slot.

Or you could fuck with us all and run a balls-to-the-wall ADRPG game 'by the book' as a tribute to Erick.

If there are two people interested in Drifter's, I'll run it.

by the book, huh.

How long do Throne Wars take to run, usually? I could do that.

Variable. From a player perspective, anywhere from 30 minutes to six hours, depending on when they get killed. :)

It doesn't *have* to be a throne war, though. You could just try to do a generic 'Threat to Amber, Squabbling children of Elders must band together (...or not) to confront it (...or not).' game.

I like throne wars. Basically because they let us rewrite canon as we play. I don't like playing games with a big canon to rely on. Crimps my style.

Throne wars are fun as set-less parlor larps. Standing up is fun.
