You aren't approaching it cynically enough. Open a can of Hormel Chili, put it in your own crockpot and sit back and laugh at how many awards it gets in office competitions.
1st place was a tolerable white chili, no heat to speak of. 2nd place was what I rated second as well. Mild heat. Fucking Minnesotans talking about it like it was the hottest thing they've ever eaten.
Where did it all go wrong, Casey? I can’t pinpoint it, but it was already too late when they remade 3:10 to Yuma and took a movie that was mostly two men talking about morality in a hotel room and put in a Gatling gun.
This is my gaming circle minus my ACKS players. I am such an asshole. Since they're in the big city now, the players really wanted to know if there were any magic weapons for sale. ACKS ain't 3e or 4e though. There is exactly one magic weapon for sale. I rolled randomly to see what it was and... ...it's a cursed -2 sword. So I told the players there's a weapons dealer/fence who's looking to get rid of a magic sword he's gotten ahold of...cheap. Only 6,000gp when usually a +1 item would be 10,000gp. So far they are not suspicious. They're going to be so pissed at me. I can barely contain my excitement.
Yeah. In my experience there should be an earlier elimination round.

ReplyDeleteNot a bad idea.
ReplyDeleteOh the irony if you win.
ReplyDeleteIt's happened in my office. It's been a couple of years though. It wasn't me, but I was on the inside of the joke.
ReplyDeleteAlmost all terrible. I voted for a nice vegetarian chili with pleasing heat.
ReplyDeleteMy chili skepticism goes up 1% per 5 miles north of the southern states.

I don't eat chili without a bottle of Cholula on standby
ReplyDeleteWe have a chili cookoff at work tomorrow. The curry chili always wins. I'm not really a fan. Maybe I'll hack the voting app again...
