Went to Boskone this weekend on Sunday with Okina and E. Really the only reason we went was because Neil Gaiman<\/a> and Tamora Pierce were there. I got him to sign my Princess Mononoke DVD and her to sign one of her books. Unfortunately the only copies I have of her books are paperback — actually, this was a choice. They’re nice reads, but hardly worth $20 a pop. I can wait until the paperbacks come out. But it was cool that she was there. The line to get her signature was pretty much all girls.<\/p>\n

After that we ate and then I came home and ran a quidditch game on HPOP. It turned out a heck of a lot better than I anticipated, though I still feel like killing a couple of people.<\/p>\n

The madness of the other game continues unabated. Basically, the situation is this: A thought B was insidiously trying to get control of the game, so made a mad rush to move the game somewhere else. B and C were understandably ticked off by this, and the rest of us were rather cheesed at the way it happened, so made A apologize and then resign. But then as we tried to put things back together and reorganize, B and C have continued to behave like children and whine and try to grab as much power as they can (the worst part is they really can’t see this). D has told me a couple things which really makes me wonder about them. So it’s all still up in the air. Wasn’t that nice and vague?<\/p>\n

The chatter at the bitter Pernie board<\/a> seems to have tapered off a bit after the initial rush. It’s too bad, because it was generally good for a laugh. I can’t say as I’ve made much of an impact on the Pernie world for 3-4 years now, and definitely not for the past 2, but it doesn’t matter. They lave long memories and continue to rehash events of which they know nothing.<\/p>\n
