http://lists.csua.berkeley.edu/mailman/listinfo/gzg-lWell, the Quote
Board quotes are transcribed, and hopefully are correct. In some cases I had
to be a little creatively interpretive with people's
handwritings and/or quote attributions. Hopefully I got them
write/right.
Enjoy the read! For some you probably had to be there. For others, the humor
of the situation at hand will probably be more than evident. Probably moreso
for those of you who have participated in ECC gaming in the past. ;-)

May these be inspiration for next year...

GZG ECC IX Quote Board 2006

**Friday Evening** "Quote or Di(c)e!"

Adrian (on overhearing JonMark and Jerry Han) "It's Friday, the Sheep Game
hasn't even started – it's not even tonite – and people are already
threatening each other."

Unknown: "Kids…they're kind of like miniatures, but they get bigger."

Jerry Han (Full Sail): "The object is to kill your opponent as many times as
possible."

Stuart Murray (Blue Light Special): "How much time did it take to make all
these cards?" Damosan: "Doesn't matter – I did them at work."

Kevin Chase (to Dave Hornung's command platoon, DS3 Demo): "Come on up and
give us moral support. We just got shot at. We need a hug."

John Lerchey (during DS3 Demo): "This is the actual firefight. It continues
until everyone decides they can't or won't keep going." Mark Kinsey {crying):
"I've had enough!"

John Lerchey (DS3 Demo): "You can only remove the White Skull with an
ambulance or something." Indy: "Oh, gee, I didn't give you guys an ambulance."
Mark Kinsey (turning to Indy): "Bitch"

Damo to Mike Hudak (Blue Light Special): "But in your case, since you've been
screwed so many times, it's free."

complete until Cthulhu appears on the table…"

Lorenzo firing!"

John Lerchey (DS3 Demo, pointing to Mark Kinsey's repeatedly Shaken unit):
"They need a medal." Mark Kinsey: "They need a hug!"

Mark Kinsey (DS3 Demo, discussing NSL tanks needing better weapons against
Kra'Vak): "Harsh language. Harsh language would at least have the effect of
making them Ro'Kah."

Mark Kinsey (DS3 Demo, observing the lineup of Kra'Vak tanks in his platoon's
LOS): "Man, this would be perfect if I wasn't Shaken."

Kevin Chase (DS3 Demo expanding on the "this unit needs a hug" theme):
"Masseuse to Heartbreak Ridge – stat!"

Unknown Player A (a ship respawns in Full Sail Frag): "Do you want to place
your ship to shoot at somebody, or to get a power up?" Unknown Player B: "I
want him to find a place to run aground!!"

Unknown Player: "Do I let the kid kill me, or do I let the other guy kill
me?"

Kevin Chase (DS3 Demo): "Our first action was that stupid little light tank
fiasco in the corner"

**Saturday Morning** "To Err Is Human, To Quote, Devine"

Aaron Newman: "It makes me feel all ionic inside."

Noam Izenberg (as Jon Davis played with Noam's battery-operated tape
measurer): "Auto-tape! Accept no substitutes."

stigmatism!"

moral high ground. That's grid 7 by…"

Joel Frock (Stuart's Cinegrunt game): "First blood goes to the nuns." Stuart
M. "Which is how it should be."

John Crimmins (after Indy rolled many dice in FT Tigers In Combat): "My God,
it's full of 1's!" Mike Hudak (later that same game): "Someone else roll for
Indy. Heck, Indy, **I'LL** roll for you!"

Indy (during Tigers In Combat): "There's two quotes on the board from this
game already." Mike Hudak: "Am I in any of them?" Indy: "Yes." Mike: "Damn!"

John Crimmins (preparing to fire a single one-die beam battery, Tigers
In Combat): "Are you ready for the pain?" (rolls a '1') "Keep waiting."

Mike Hudak (after John C rolls a '1', Tigers In Combat) "You didn't let Indy
roll for you, did you?"

Indy: "Die yet?" Derek Rogilio: "No, I'm staying in the back." Indy: "Come on,
no guts, no glory." Derek: "I didn't come here for glory."

Adrian (Stuart's Cinegrunt game): "Are the civilians going to saty in our way?
Oh well, sacrifices have to be made in the name of the Empire."

Chauncey: "I need more dice!!"

Rebel Player (with Luke Skywalker trapped on Hoth, Assault On Hoth): "I guess
we're not getting a new Jedi." Imperial Player: "No, but we are."

JP to Jim Bell (whose naval brigade troops broke the British company and got

obvious."

Dark): "Shouldn't our ships all be in a line?"

Jerry Han (All Alone In The Dark): "I'll let the galactic winds blow
me!"

Bryan G: "My troops are going to shuffle to the side." Tony: "There is no
dancing in StarGrunt."

Jerry Han (All Alone In The Dark): "I am probably the one person who rolls
worse than Indy." (he proceeded to roll four sets of 6d6, getting four 6s with
each roll).

Unknown: "Gray Aliens – the other white meat?"

Don (Singularity, after placing six missile salvos in one spot): "That is how
the FSE win the game. If I roll bad for salvo missiles coming in, I lose.
That's the price you pay for being French."

Aaron Newman (to JP Fiset, All Alone In The Dark): "You may taunt them. You
were programmed by the French."

Charlie Decker (The Cheese Game, after dropping an artillery strike on
Laserlight's 'squad' – or flock – of cute fuzzy sheep, including the
"we're harmless" sheep with a pink bow): "I come from a long line of Irishmen.
Killing sheep is nothing."

Aaron Newman (All Alone In The Dark): "The ships that disappeared entered into
something that is not hyperspace"
Unknown player: "Wal-Mart!"

Laserlight: "So you can move five bodies." Adrian: "But…there are so
many…"

Indy: "Mike, are you more NAC or ESU?" Mike: "Why?" (Indy repeats question)
Mike: "Ummm, NAC. Why?" Indy (long pause): "All will become clear in the
fullness of time…and if I could say that any more Vorlon, I would." Mike:
"You're twisted."

Jerry Contril (Singularity): "He went from fully active to destroyed in one
turn." Scott Biship: "I guess there's no reason for rolling for the PDF's
then."

Mke Hudak' (as Greg D's squad dumps the commercial powered armor into a tank
of cheese): "They're powered armour. They're vacuum proof, but they're not
cheese proof?" John Crimmins: "NOTHING is cheese proof!"

Unknown: "That thing was in amazingly good shape for a ship with two hits
left!"

Adrian (to Brian Gordon, Cheese Game): "You look like you're about to start
crying." Mike Hudak: "Or lose control of your bowels."

Jon Davis (Destroy All FOGRES): "He's experienced. I'm letting him roll the
D20." (a '2' is subsequently rolled)

**Saturday Evening** "I came, I saw, I quoted"

Carl Scheu to Jim Bell: "Don't worry, Jim. You can be pathetic without rolling
dice."

JP Fiset (as he fired into Aaron's rear arc): "Do you feel that love coming
from behind?"

Jerry Han (Sheep Game, as he pulled a beagle pup from his pocket and told it
to attack): "Go get 'em Fluffy!!"

Tony Finan (FMA Sheep, after a Shuggoth manifested itself in the starship's
cargo hold): "'Get em'? That was your plan??"

Adrian (at end of the Sheep Game as players hummed "Amazing Grace" (with kazoo
accompaniment) while final credits roll – everyone died): "So who comes to a
game con armed with a kazoo?!"

Adrian (explaining why no one else can run FMA Sheep): "The difference is that
he thinks in a linear, logical, engineer manner, and you're creatively Evil
– with a capital 'E'"

Tony Finan (FMA Sheep): "When Chris runs a game, it just brings out my urge to
destroy the entire world."

Don (single IJN player in Last Train To Dark's Veil): "Well, you shot at
me!"
John Lerchey: "No, I didn't. It was at he UNSC." Don: "Yes you did!" John:
"No, I didn't. It was the Japanese."

laughing."

**Sunday Morning** "Quote'R'Us"

Carl Scheu (running the Jedi Knights during FMA Incident On P4X-636):
"I'm
content. Do I feel a disturbance in the Force?" Keith Frye (stormtrooper
player): "Got a whole lotta disturbance coming your
way!"

Mark Kinsey (stopping by P4X-636 and understanding it was
Stargate-based)
"As my last name is 'Kinsey', I will stop by periodically to make annoying and
unhelpful comments to the SG teams."

Tony Finan (upon his SG-15 team meeting a face-hugger in P4X-636): "I'm
glad Mark ran this game on Sunday – so I can feel unclean all day long"

Aaron Newman (playing the Terminators in P4X-636): "I hear dead humans
are very calm." Tony Finan: "All the stress is in their neck. You snap that
and all their pain goes away."

face-hugger
in P4X-636): "It's still trying to give him some lovin'."

not

> Unknown (Full Sail): "Pirate Gallery =96 ship name HMS Aneurism"

As I recall, it was a pirate galley. The idea being that the rowers keep going
"Stroke! Stroke!".

I don't believe that we managed to kill him enough times after that.

The question should be "Why don't more people?"
