Hi all! I know this is arguably early to be discussing it, but the organizers of OurCon have been pushing me to inspire/suggest/develop event ideas for their convention next year. One of the things I tossed at them was that I knew of some BrikWars (...) (22 years ago, 29-Apr-03, to lugnet.org.us.nelug, lugnet.events)

I was actually sitting around yesterday trying to come up with a way to do a convention type Brikwars. I think I came up with a game that could be do able, but of course I'll need to test it first. So if anyone is up for doing a weekly/monthly (...) (22 years ago, 30-Apr-03, to lugnet.org.us.nelug)

(...) I agree, especially for a Gaming Con where non-AFOLs will be invited to join, that it would be nice to have the players be allies versus NPC opponents. Having NELUG play the NPCs would work nicely. This creates a nice scenario where teamwork (...) (22 years ago, 1-May-03, to lugnet.org.us.nelug, lugnet.gaming)

(...) I always appreciate other options, because they let me see things that I might have over looked.
