Feedback on Game Over Gaming Cyberfestival - D&D game

So I did it. I faced my fears, drove all the way to Glentana and ran a D&D session with a group of awesome people who were so hungry and eager for a game that they even thought I was awesome. :-P

 


Not everything went according to plan. I think I might have mentioned it before somewhere that Game Over Gaming is still something that's in its infancy. So there were a number of logistical things that didn't quite go right, but everyone pitched in and made it awesome anyway. I also ended up dealing with my first migraine in years. It was so potent that I couldn't go into the main venue without my head wanting to explode.

With all that said, it went really well. Friendships were formed, dice were rolled, with a Natural 20 being one of them. Very very potent stuff. I also had some awesome friends who popped onto Twitch to say hi and roast me good and proper. Unfortunately, so good and proper that the stream died and never really recovered despite attempts to get it going. Even my mom got to watch. :)

I have been invited to DM at the next event which will be in October at a high school in George. This will allow for more people to attend. I'm also going to attempt to rope in another DM to so that we'll have two D&D tables as what happened with mine is that people started watching in on the sidelines. They had shunned the notion initially, but then got to see how much fun we were having and you got the feeling that there might have been a desire to join in. Also the whole word-of-mouth thing will probably secure us more people. So yeah. There are plans.
