Travel:
Airtran, as an airline, blows goats for lunch money. Never flying them again. Other than that, the travel was not bad. I honestly slept most of the way both ways, so that was all good. Got picked up by Jason Price on wednesday evening, and the cold temperature was kinda nice, actually. :)

General Con Stuff:
This has to have been the best ICC I have been to since NWOD Chronicle start. Hands down, the absolute best. The hotel, itself, was AMAZING (How in the hell did we get a five star hotel???), and apparently, we impressed the shit out of them because of our internal cleaning and security teams. I donapos;t recall hearing of any problems that came up with the hotel staff, but I made a point of not working at all this con, because I needed the break from doing work-ing related activities. All in all, it was a very relaxing weekend, as depicted below

I had to leave my breastplate leather armor with Dragonfire... Theyapos;re inscribing it with rampant dragons and the Summer Court Crest... So my armor is going to look even more awesome than it already does. ::grin::

Game - Awakening:
I admit that I had my misgivings about going into ICC Awakening because of how it was run prior and certain interpersonal issues with some members of staff. I am happy to say that not only did they run an excellent game, I had a great time. There was a nice mix of politics and plot, as well as combat and narration, with interpersonal roleplay. The game definetely had a win-feeling at the end. :)

Game - Lost:
::grins:: Initially, I went into ICC only really looking forwards to Lost, and as always, I am not disappointed. Game was incredibly fun, and I really appreciated the ST Support for the "Guarding crew" to make sure that we were not sitting around on a wall all game.

Game - Requiem:
Absolutely the best con requiem game I have EVER been to. I cannot commend the ST staff enough on this. Yes, I went into it rather cranky and (admittedly) over-reacting about the plotbus and how I felt I was going to get explodicated... But everything was handled amazingly well. I love some of the improvements the staff is working on for the venue (Masquerade index FTW).

I had some absolutely incredible Invictus RP, and the ability to effect how the venue reacted to the plot through both the invictus meeting and the masquerade efforts, was so very cool. The STapos;s handled an over-one-hundred person apos;killboxapos; frenzy plot, and brought the focus back to story and roleplay. Over a hundred people in that room, and everything was mediated - moreover, no challenges were allowed for ten minutes thereafter.

I definetely consider that a win - hell, I did not throw a single challenge in requiem all con... Which is a personal win for me.

Drinking - The Venue:
Dear lord in heaven. ::grins::

I saved my heavy drinking for saturday night, and ended up drinking through an entire bottle of 151 Rum. Definetely a blast, and I had a great time seeing everyone and hanging out. Such a vitally needed vacation that even though I feel like I could sleep for another ten hours or so, I am mentally ready to get back into the swing of things.
