Since I have recovered from my adrenaline overdose, it occurs to me that I really need to thank the two crew who played Huey and Perkins for dropping me in it and pulling me back out of it, in something approaching record time 
That was some good reminiscin' we had back then!

WHAT A LOAD OF RUBBISH! THIS EVENT SUCKED!
Not enough Reavers!! Not enough gun fights!!
Is something a Dimmy would say!! ;D
Man... Serenity is by far my favorite system.
That was an amazing event. SO good. So many good bits I can even say.
Everything to do with being a Medic is fricking fantastic. I loved sharing information and working through what we believed to be a virus responsible for making these things. And doing it all IC and not even thinking about the movie.
Saving the pregnant girl was amazing. And being asked to be a God Father really made the event.
Oh, and then finding out who the Grandfather was... that was... an interesting twist... especially as when she said 'I'm going to get in so much trouble for this' I told her I would shoot the first person to give her a harsh word.
I then found out who he was...and decided maybe I would just steal his hat...
I can't wait for the next one. I NEED MORE!

I had great fun. Reavering was a lot of fun. Shame I didn't spend much time in the player area except when I was attacking them.
Fun parts:
Jesus almost winning the race in a shuttle.
Running at a player who was armed with a shotgun, and still scaring the go-se out of her.
Captain Tom Crowson not being slow to realise exactly what family he'd married into.
So, when does Event 5 happen? I want more!!! |

Ol' Captain Tim didn't have a clue who he was marrying into
I did, but Tom didn't.
Not that he'd have been able to get out of it even if he did. Two people with shotguns were a great incentive. And no-one wants to upset Mr Niska by refusing a proposal from his grand-daughter
The race was quite funny. There were lots of "ooohs" and "ahhs". And it would've been funny if Jesus had won it
Yep I'm already wanting the next event to come along. I know how much effort it is to get them sorted though, so I'm happy for Jon and Andrew to take a well deserved break |

Those shotguns weren't just pointed at you, Trez 
And, as well as that, what's wrong with Natalya that the idea of marrying her is so repellant?

A HUGE thanks to all who made the short time I was there fun (had to skip out Saturday evening  )
Highlights included:
Finding deer in the biosphere after being told there was nothing to hunt in the place, clearly smuggled in.
The conversation about how you needed sterility for medical procedures and the shock from those we were talking too at how their doctor was failing at it.
Having a valid reason for serving people strawberries and people's reactions to fresh fruit.
Dodging reavers and grenades and not sensibly staying in cover in order to stand next to one pregnant lady with no weapons. Can't believe she got herself shot later on 
Managing to get a ref call that allowed me to join my crew in performing open heart surgery on a shorted out electronic heart - made this mechanic happy if a bit bloody.
OOC: Helping break a few crew with the naming combinations that occured within our crew

That nearly crippled me.

That only happened as I'd been introducing Miss Constance Tang to a lot of people just before you turned up. I blanked my own name.  |

I just got 'reprogram your mind with subliminal messages through your computer'. The Alliance have hacked this board, it seems...

Took me a while to remember I had actually signed up to the board.
IC Highlights:
- the way people reacted to the name badges
- Getting fed the same cheesy chatup line I had been when crewing the last event, but being able to react completely differently, and thankfully without giggling.
- Listening and taking part in the bl**** border worlds ranting us core worlders (and in my case space travelling newb) were doing at regular intervals.
- Actually managing to think up contracts on the spot (nope, I was too busy to prepare them properly)
- in a bored moment being taught to shoot by AJ our security man, and almost shooting someone when the safety catch slipped...
- watching the ship's engineer perform open heart surgery...
- being cheered up by my capt. wiggling his "bustle" at me (Don't worry captain, IC I'll never tell...)
- Calming everyone down during the Alliance questioning by pointing out that we a) weren't criminals and b) that our capt (as was) was on their side and so he would be on ours... I hoped.
- asking said captain for my tea during the siege because darned it Constance was cold, had just poured 5 cups (incl the one he fetched himself) and she was darn well having hers alliance or no alliance.
- turning round and having to explain that no, I didn't actually know what was going on either, I just wanted my darned tea.
- watching a reaver storm into the surgery screaming, knocking down the two doctors and then as I screamed and cowered in the corner, it finally collapsing and dying in the chair in front of me!!! I was unscathed :O
- choosing to stop saying Constance was bored as this just made people ask for tea.
IC/OC lowlights:
Discovering they finally needed cortexers about 30 mins before I was leaving...
Having to leave on the Saturday
OC highlights:
Crew
Players
Tea on tap!
McSkippy's (IC and food... yummy)
Looking forward to staying for the whole event next time. It sounded like it got quite exciting after that. |

Somebody said they wanted to borrow your "Cheesy Chat-Up Lines" CD if it's around...

Don't you mean "resemble"?
Plus, if I hadn't rebuffed the first one, Constance wouldn't have heard all the other classics. She was highly amused, she kept wondering what you would come up with next...
