Once again, buds from 'round the world (including Australia) came to Madison, WI to engage in epic gaming for four days straight. There was board gaming, wargaming, video gaming, rpgs, tron disc-throwing, delicious food-eating and possibly some spontaneous firebreathing. What follows are some pictures that were captured of the mercurial event.
I always gotta be an annoying rules lawyer when everyone else is just trying to have fun playing Mansions of Madness.

Chad played the User (everyone else was Programs), and they successfully destroyed the alien virus placed into the Grid meant to set off nukes around the world on December 21st, 2012!
The dreaded Worm virus appears!
Why is Paul actually suited up though? It couldn't really be for Laser Tag, could it?
ReplyDeleteYes, he definitely was suited up for Lazer tag! I just added some Lazer tag pics to the bottom of the post. Paul kept it real and dignified through 3 full games of Lazer Tag!
