I shall add another crew best bits, not in any particular order.
- Trying to come up with ways of keeping the shamblers entertaining, both for ourselves and the players.
- Playing another over enthusiatic character (guess what I'm playing if I ever find a LARP I can play), making players laugh IC and skipping into fights with shamblers. Usta calling me Perky, a player arguing my name was Pixie and informing them both usta can call me whatever she likes. The conversation with the citiers about whether i could have a power arm, being denied by Usta. Lying on the floor listening to Usta and Dana kick the Xedacians arses while me and Dan discussed how long Subdue lasted and being quite sad the fight was over by the time we could stand up.
- A shout of "Sorry Joy" followed by damage calls and being hit in the exact same place repeatedly.
- Someone managing to catch me in my side and tickling me with a sword enough that I had to drop OC before standing back up as I was laughing too hard.
- The native trader, getting to interact with players in a nice way and being vaguely helpful, getting given my beer in a wine glass and then being made to leave before i could finish it. The headman asking me how to take glass out of a wound safely after someone dropped a glass and we were waiting for the spinewolves to attack, I was after all his apprentice, me OC trying desperately hard to remember my first aid lessons to form a sensible answer and then remembering I was using Psi Heal. Offering the players more healing but I'd have to use the medical supplies we'd just given them. Reminding the players the spine wolves were still sacrificing people and then running away before Ecker and Belraine could have a fight.
-Martin informing the crew he was actually freaked out at least once as the crew descended on his hapless citier NPC.
- Dawn of the dead style slow shambles towards the PC's in a line so they'd either have to gun us down or accept someone was going to get hit.
- Listening to some of the theories and keeping my mouth shut.
- Hitting Del accidentally in the Pods, his 5 minute rant about there never being a baby spook, giggling manically on the floor and feeling worse for laughing than for actually hurting the poor guy (sorry again!)
- Finding the player hut all but deserted, shambling over by myself and soaking up bullets, heading back to the crew hut to someone muttering. "I only have one shot left" Sadly I wasn't able to get anymore crew before the other players got back!
Bad points
- Being sick most of saturday but managing to keep going through it after a nap.
- the image of Toban and Pixie/Perky that has just been put in my head.
Yeah I had fun, it's nice to have 2 NPC's who may have managed to survive.

Mostly a cross post from LJ, but...
My personal highlights included:
-Team Nanolord doing what they do best - the 'Shapeshifting Switzerland'.
-Eldriss PCs turning up (though we're probably at just the right number now) - including one of the new players who had a ball playing his warrior.
-Fun with Spined Wolves - including Warp Hound animal training (unexpected, that!)
-A working APC phys-rep! (I'm a bit of a petrolhead OOC)
-The fact that wrist sprains and certain minor injuries seem to go away in time in.
-A chance for Belraine to break out the hospitality again!
-A VERY lively political situation to play with/manipulate to personal and local agendas/ignore where appropriate
-Having to work through some tricky character decisions and making contingency plans.
-Some terrific fights, in particular the one with the Nanolord forcibly sat on the porch with a gun and a sword on an accidental rocking chair during one of the heavy attacks. This was made all the more fun for getting the injury dealt with, only for a second wave to come over and catch me in exactly the same leg! Belraine's best fights are traditionally on one leg, propped up against something.
-Surviving THAT site.
-Knowing exactly how 'Project: Otterfish' was going to end before it started...
Bad points, few as they were:
-OOC cramp during the Saturday afternoon pitched battle
- on a related note, the wrist sprain returning as soon as time out was declared.
All in all, fab stuff, and very much needed stress relief! Thanks to all who enriched my playing experience this weekend!

jkatjovi (2/8/2010) - Hitting Del accidentally in the Pods, his 5 minute rant about there never being a baby spook, giggling manically on the floor and feeling worse for laughing than for actually hurting the poor guy (sorry again!)
I was unaware of that until afterwards when he was injecting himself with random things from Ecker's box, whilst Aneirin and Ash giggled at him. I just assumed he'd been chest parrying again until Ash said "You'll find out what he used to parry later".

That might have been me not Ash, although we were both most amused.
Maybe those Doosh codpieces need to come into fashion a bit faster, then we could have lent him one. 
I keep remembering more stuff.
'Suggestively shaped fruit?'
'Shall I feed it some nuts' and the subsequent shocked looks at the gun absorbing the nuts.
Choosing safely processed fruit and nuts only after the fresh grape I ate almost killed me.
ROCKET FUEL - the consummate Citier product 
Actually feeling quite proud to be a Citier (instead of falling back on my I'm a merc not a normal Citier attitude) in the transport after the rescue, and then finding out the plan and executing it no further questions asked

My favourite bits in no particular order:
'Bob' Sorry, but I'm not authorised to tell you any more about why he was so much fun.
The howling mixed with hysterical giggling on the Friday night as we tried to do our ritual.
My warrior Eldriss NPC. He was only around briefly but was a lot of fun regardless 
Shambling <> Stupid.
Toban's long term crush Dana finally turning up. Pity he was dead by that point 
The Great Otterfish. A clear reminder that no matter how mad things actually are the players will always go that extra step into totally bonkers.
Being right about the Japanese Whiskey.
The snatch and grab of Ecker and the scene that followed.
Shooting Bert very many times. There's just something so inviting about a visible Eldriss...

Well it is the fashanable thing to do
cool bits
-spine wolf snatch squad
-the look of confusion on players faces when i brought their player back whole, with promised med supplies.
-being told by Martin to act suprised when the spine wolf turn up in a minute, and then being gobsmacked when a player told me there where Shengui outside.
-blatant lying to Usta, I had not been briefed OC she would be there so was making all of the missile scene up as I went along whilst craping my self.
Bad bits
only two
-Running full tilt in to a chair right gonad first as part of snatch squad, there was a warp hound rolling around in agony behind the hut for a few minutes there.
-Getting back from med supply run and finding I had forgot the red bull

'No, I was kind of hoping you had some'

Highlights
Ecker instigating The Nothing protocols at my urging just as we got attacked by our guides making her almost the first to hit the deck.
The drive around (even though I was getting woozy)
Team Nanolord being fun to be part of as always
The new mask that made staying online a lot easier
The new make up making it finally obvious what I was and the conversations it engendered.
Being likened to a 'vibrator'
Eating like a Nanolord with fresh veg and potatoes
Completing my only mission "Don't Die!"
Shambler baiting... (Crew: You put up with me so well)
Calmly strolling away from the Spinewolves
"You appear to be talking to thin air. So I'm guessing Eldriss."
"Contact shambler!" "No it's Ash." "I'll have you know I have much more grace than that."
The often simultaneous psi sensing between meeting groups.
The atmospheric mist
Being on the ridge watching the shamblers working out how to get up it
Perky/Pixie and helping her confuse her patrol mate round the tent
Haverford: "I'm here to look after Belraine." Belraine: "I'm here to look after Haverford."

tillymint (2/8/2010)
Fain's Minion (2/8/2010)
•The Long Sneak - just three careful crewgals got all the way from deep woodland to the back door of the cabin. We were quite pleased with ourselves and did damage to boot
Not so, I managed it a couple times, including once getting chopped down for the first time practically on top of a patient-in-treatment - then watching everyone remember that I was going to get back up...
Ah. Grammar malfunction due to exhaustion. Remove the 'just' after 'Sneak' as I know several people managed it too, no bragging intended. I loved the sneaking around in the night fog, too, never sure how far the players could see...
