that way… you can have a different color every day!
I don’t know who the hell thought this game up, but it’s morbidly kind of fun.
It’s called Funeral Quest, and it kind of works like KoL or LoGD, where you have a flash game with a number of turns per day. You have customers come in, and the object is to get as much cash out of them as possible. Morbid No?
I’m currently playing here: Funeral Quest
Yeah… I’m really behind on this blogging thing… was so busy.
So this Saturday I ended up being pro photographer to my co-worker’s dance competition. I was competing with their usual guy, but apparently he sucks and they wanted a second guy there.
I spent 3 hours sliding around on my knees, but I ended up having a ton of fun. Went through 3 sets of batteries for my flash, and I was actually kind of worried about my flash melting.
I ended up with 2 cards full of pictures. I started off taking .RAW’s but they ended up taking too much space so after 10 or so, I stopped and went back to jpegs.
Out of around 370 pictures, I got carved out 227 good ones, and cropped them up and made proofs. BTW. 227 pictures at 22 cents a piece gets expensive. I’m hoping to make a few bucks out of my weekend. I’ll go and link my web gallery once I get all the pictures watermarked.
Lessons:
Friday- Gaming at DRAGON: Dragon is a gaming community/group/thing that games every Friday. This Friday, it was a series of brain busters: 2 games of Puerto Rico, and 1 huge game of Power Grid.
The first game of Power Grid was a bust for me. 4 player game, 2 newer players, followed by Loren, followed by me. Loren ended up getting the hookups from the newer players, plus I made a major gaff when I tried to set up a major indigo trade, only to realize that indigo was already traded. Just didn’t see it. Loren won by a huge margin of over 30 points.
The second game was much faster and tighter, with 3 experienced players. Didn’t win that one either.
Power Grid with 5 players was interesting. The resources become far tighter as the number of players increases, and competition for just enough resources to fire a plant is fierce. I ended up winning, mostly because I think I was able to stockpile money using clean power, and then I jumped ahead with the cash influx, purchased a ridiculous amount of capacity, and rode out the wave. I ended up powering 17 of 17 cities, though I could have also won the turn before if I had counted closer and powered 15 when no one else had the cities to do it.
We also got in a couple of lighter games, like Bang!
Pally vs. Single Pull Gnomer. Pre TBC pre 70.
BTW: It only took me 6 hours 30 mins to figure out how install the appropriate packages to do the file conversion. Yay Linux.
