[Tomb] Hey, I'm not the one that tried to
tempt Lady Eliza's virtue with savory bon-
bons! (Mr. Hudak, head for the hills....).

(The funniest part was Mike didn't realize *during the game* who the figure he
was
approaching was.... when I explained post-
game, his face went pale and he said "Now I'm very scared....")

But, since the whole thing never happened, it'd be hard for any court to
convict me. We all know pictures can be doctored or faked. I claim absolute
innocence. We all had fun, no one got hurt (yet), and nothing happened.

Besides, casting Jon of Needham as a defrocked Anglican minister, had there
been such a game, would probably have been equally scandalous.

And had there been such a game, the following people may have been
represented: Allan MacCajun O' Southfen,
Brigadier Francis, Jean-Peter Fiset, Oh-Oh
Ohlsson, Fultons (x3), Klaus Paladin, Heinz-
Karl Von Richtoffen, Rabbi "Magic" MacKowsky, "Mad" Brain (with the
autoshotgun), Jon of Needham, MacBif of the Yorkshire MacBifs, and several
others.

Of course, had anything actually happened, I'm sure commitment would be the
result for all participants.

Do "Joe Louis" count as "savory bon bons"?

Aside from psychological damage, that is.

That's right. So it's a good thing he would have been an Appalachian Southern
Baptist preacher, instead, as that would have been *more*
scandalous--the effect we were looking for.  "Place yoah hand on the
afflicted part of yoah, ah, the afflicted splatter where his head used to be,
now be HEALED hallelujah!" JohnC would have looked a little shocky
around that point--he'd have prayed for deliverance and gotten a banjo
chorus and St Jon in quick succession.

...And if not, we'll try again next year! "Frenzied Maniacs And Sheep",
anyone?

By the way...exactly how did we "win" the Cheesiest Game award *before* the
game happened?

Maybe the "details" of this non-event should be published somewhere.
Just so that it does not happen again, not that it ever happened in the first
place.

Probably not a good idea, I don't have much life insurance.

Hey, I gave up sheep to try and profess my love at first sight after seeing
the figure standing in the doorway....... It's not my fault..... Tom set
me up......

If it actually happened.....

> But, since the whole thing never happened,

I claim absolute innocence also.... Or ignorance.... Well, one of those
'I' words.....

You're sure "love" is exactly the word you're looking for? And don't forget
arguing over the price of chocolates. (although, to be fair, he did
eventually swap some cash and his AAR for the chocolate and a d4/d4
musket).

"Extinction" starts with "E" not "I"  :-)

Hang on, I'll go get my auto shotgun. If they're close, might be able to get
both with one shot.

Holy Cow! How did I become such a high priority target just by playing
Tom's game......

Er, Um... Nevermind.... answered my own question....

Gotta go with my second choice of hideout then.... Cleveland.... no
one ever goes there.  :-)

I wonder if Ft Sarno still has reservations.....
