Hello, folks...
I'm on my yearly pilgrimage to Las Pegasus Vegas, and I'm here for the next week to play some poker. I got in around 6pm last night, around three and a half hours late after my flight out was delayed, forcing them to shift me to a second, later flight. But arrive I did, and now it's time to play. So, just as I did last year, I'll blog about my playing experiences for those who are curious, win lose or draw.
Ack! Forgot about this. Go do a FimFiction Fandom Survey! It's interesting. And fun. And entertaining. So do it!
Sometimes a step backwards works.
Or is it sideways.
Diagonally?
Whichever way, the result is awesome
So, yeah, crazy year so far. We got lots of cool stuff going on. Going to Vegas this June to HRPC as more than just a con-goer.
Oh, and we got an actual voice actor from the show! Like, what the holy freaking hell did we do to get this person?! I was as shocked as you all are. I mean, yeah it's no surprise that people from the community get actual people from the show to appear on their podcasts and videos once in a while. But, US? Really?
They Call Her The Courier: Sugar
This minific is for Fallout: New Vegas and specifically borrows from the New Vegas Bounties mod. It was written as though they are human, but you could really just change some words and boom, pony.
The Courier swaggered into Randall's office like she'd done so many times before, brushing the New Vegas dust from her shoulder.
I’m home as of Sunday morning but still jetlagged after ten full days over there. I regret I didn’t get rich at the poker tables <wistful sigh>, but I had a blast anyway. Enough so, in fact, that I’m going to make you guys suffer through some pics. Yes, you will finally get to know what your author actually looks like... when I get my online album finished, that is.
The lezzy visual novel game I backed on Kickstarter last year finally came out! YESSSS!!!

Well, the story of my play yesterday was the story of pocket queens--they hated me. I lost $200 on a cash game when I got all-in with pocket queens against pocket fours and a four hit the board for three of a kind--meaning I lost a hand I started a 4 to 1 favorite against. So instead of doubling up to $400, I ended up busting out and walking away.
I'm leaving. Everything has gone wrong this trip from late flights to a broken room TV and clogged bathtub drain, and yesterday was the worst. I played twice and lost both times in minutes, putting me down another $350. The first time, I twice confused 5000 chips with 500 ones and made unintentional raises (once the chips are bet, you can't take them back) that ended up costing me my entire stack; on the final hand my straight was beaten by a full house. The second time, I made a foolish
No success to report. Opened with a C-note on craps and lost it pretty quick--it's amazing how unfriendly dice can be at times. Then again, success at that seems rare for me. After that, I gorged on the breakfast buffet, took a four mile walk upstrip towards the Stratosphere and back to walk it off, then walked further to the Aria to see what tournaments they were offering. Nothing that interested me, so I hopped a cab to the Rio for my first WSOP action. The events opened this very week,
... to the comments on the last Firefly chapter yet. But work is a royal mother-of-a-diamond-dog right now, and I've been coming home late and exhausted night after night, in no mood to do anything. I will get to them this weekend, promise. My vacation can't come soon enough at this point; I'll be off to a week or two in Las Pegasus Vegas to get my fill of poker and the desert after Memorial Day. Who knows, maybe I'll run into Aces Up and Double Down (from Five Star
The barcast started drinking at HRPC. And we wrote a fic. Here it is.
It's garbage.
