Minicon 2 Day 2
Sep. 1st, 2013 07:14 pmHad other obligations and wasn't able to turn up until about 11:30am Games:
Castles of Burgundy respectable score, not a win.
Lords of Waterdeep respectable score, loss.
DC Heroes x2 respectable score not a win; miserable loss.
By this time it was 6pm and the last 3 games all included heavily spoon-draining players. faced with more of the same and feeling very down about the whole thing I quit out and stocked up on comfort food for dinner before coming home. (To be fair dinner was what I'd already planned, but I had intended it to be an indulgent end to a more enjoyable weekend.)
Having skipped lunch after a somewhat physical morning probably didn't help at all. I was faced with the choice between
- getting lunch, seeing my parents and probably having to wait for a game when I got back
- making critical mass in a game I wanted to play and which was likely to end before my parents finished doing things around town then going for lunch
I opted for the second and made do with oat-bars and SIFI bananas - but due to spoon heavy player the game took much longer than anticipated and I manage to miss both my parents and any reasonable semblance of lunchtime. By which time I figured that I might as well play more and hold out until dinner instead of eating late and throwing my body-clock out of whack.
Other factors may also have contributed.
It's disappointing that the most enjoyable period of time I had today - possibly all weekend - was an hour of otherwise-dead-time spent weeding in the sun at the Hall.
