Anna Overseas

7/27/2005

I didn't mention it earlier, but I've finally made it to the Semi-Mythical Only Gaming Store In Edinburgh. It was no where near where I thought it was, and it's a bit of a question if I could make it back there again (without assistance), but I did make it in.

Basically, I've hooked up with a group here called Orc, and two of their members were willing to take me there last week. Orc itself is interesting... not quite what I was expecting in a gaming group, but part of that is because it's summer, and a lot of people aren't around. I had a lot of fun last week, testing a game called A|State and talking to the game designer about it. It was nominated for quite a few awards last year at GenCon, and this year the publisher is doing demos.

{Dear Friends Going to GenCon: Please check it out. Malcolm is very fun and full of energy, and you'll get a sexy kewl poster. Hugs and Kisses, Anna.}

Anyway, after being lead a long long way by two of the guys at the club, I finally got to the semi-mythical Black Lion Gaming Shop.

And there's one really important thing to say:

Oh my god, it's a gaming shop where the owner *likes gamers*.

I know, I'm shocked and awed, too.

PS: And they carry Brawl! And will bring in Girl Genius! *dies*

A 20-something Canadian who used to teach English in China. There's lots in the archives about my experiences with teaching, with culture shock, and with my adventures in China. Occasionally it meanders into melancholy (part of the culture shock), which must be very dull to read, so you can skip that.

But right now, I'm back in Canada, and kinda determined to do something with the several thousand photos I took, as well as write more about China and other stuff.
