Pictures from the Intercon XX run: October 9, 2005

King Max (Jim MacDougal) and the Kernel (Christopher Buck) discuss who's in charge, while a dust bunny (John Kammer) looks on.

Emma, the M&M® (Jacqui Antonelli) makes an emphatic point to Linc, the penny (Celia Tite). Oneski (Laura Boylan), the red Lego™ listens in. In the foreground, Brad, the bent nail (Dave Cave) and Gaak Bluurgh, the hairball (Sami Genstein) have their own discussion. Don't you have political discussions under your couch?

From left to right: the pretzel piece (Anna Bradley) listens to Vadalia, the bit of onion (Mags S), while Shard (Ellen Endress) listens. There's angst under the couch as well!

From left to right, Sporeticus (Anandi Gandolfi) issues a command. Shard (Ellen Endress) and Ort (Anna Bradley) look on amusedly as Fuzz (Erin Price) does not like what she hears.

The hairball (Sami Genstein) ventures out from under the couch, in search of others like her.

The political discussion gets even more heated. From left to right, King Max (Jim MacDougal) and the M&M® (Jacqui Antonelli) watch as Sporeticus (Anandi Gandolfi) gets an earful. Oculus (Chad Bergeron, back to camera) listens as Oneski (Laura Boylan) makes her emphatic point.

Vadalia (Mags S) pleads for help from Sporeticus (Anandi Gandolfi), as others, including Barry the Highly Amused GM, look on.

From left to right, Sporeticus (Anandi Gandolfi) misses out as Gaak Bluurgh (Sami Genstein) watches as Oculus (Chad Bergeron) gets help from Vadalia (Mags S). Antiphony, the Ant (Anita Szostak) and the Kernel (Christopher Buck) also watch.

Beware the dust bunnies!!! Fuzz (Erin Price) and Flaikee (John Kammer) are forces to be reckoned with! Fuzz holds some of the fuzz, knitted by our own GM Lynn Anslow.

Emma, the M&M® (Jacqui Antonelli) gets a surprise in a contingency envelope, while two of the GMs (Tim Lasko and Lynn Anslow - hidden) look on.

Much of our fabulous cast is swept away by powerful forces. From left to right, there's Emma (Jacqui Antonelli), Shard (Ellen Endress), Linc (Celia Tite), Sporeticus (a mostly hidden Anandi Gandolfi in the back), Oculus (Chad Bergeron), Ort (Anna Bradley), Brad (the bent Dave Cave in front), Oneski (a mostly obscured Laura Boylan in the back), Vadalia (Mags S), Max (Jim MacDougal, looking away), Fuzz (Erin Price), the Kernel (Christopher Buck), and Flaikee (John Kammer).

Yes, it's all still quite silly fun! When you spend so much time and effort creating a LARP (of any kind), it's a shame when they aren't run many times. In this case, we learned that we had captured "lightning in a bottle," aided, of course, by many zany friends.
