Ambercon 2006 report

Thursday

Slot 1 was "ShadowWorld," one of three Mainline sessions that Edwin Voskamp ran this year (and we still had people who didn't get into any of them). I play Cat Nelson, a USAF pilot and TK/BioK (the latter a fancy name for being able to boost her senses/reflexes) operative of the Circle. This year we were sent after the Ark of the Covenant, which may or may not be the real one - apparently many copies were once made of it. Making it even more fun was the fact that this Ark was in the possession of the Cult of Assassins. Fun! We actually managed to trace our way up the chain of command for a little while without getting caught at it. But, it wouldn't be a Circle Op without some FAEs and a couple of ruined castles. I also received a bottle of St. Brendan's Irish Cream Liqueur, which was so tasty that it didn't make it past Friday night's game (I had help drinking it, mind you). I may never drink Bailey's again.

Steve Acton - Carter Blake
Simone Cooper - Sunrise Arizona Gibran
Kris Fazzari - Cat Nelson
Guy Gascoigne-Piggford - Simon Monk (referred to as Monk in the quotes, to avoid confusion with NPC Simon)
William Gulstad - Howard Storm
Tim Hart - Lawrence Martinelli
Irene Schwarting - Lan Parker
Eric Todd - Miguel Fortuna

"Use your best judgment." -- Simon to Miguel
"No, please don't." -- Sunrise

"Being exanguinated by a team member does not appeal." -- Monk to the group

"Setting off a volcano was intentional. Destroying the universe was an accident." -- Lan
"Yes." -- Monk

"I don't want to be the recipient of brain damage." -- Lawrence to the group

"If it's possible, I'd like to stop them from doing something stupid." -- Monk to the group

"A big metal tube impaling itself in your building and spewing out fuel is not a good thing." -- Carter

"So the Levites would have to pass through the gauzy stuff?" -- Miguel to GM
"That's why we have eight." -- Carter

"There was very little collateral damage. We didn't kill anyone we didn't intend to kill." -- Monk to the group

Friday

Slot 2 was "Changing Hands" by R.F. McCaughey. The premise of this game was that Random wanted to know how some of the Shadows important to Amber (or at least to various members of the family) had fared during the Chaos occupation, now that Chaos was withdrawing. I decided to play a variant of Juliana, daughter of Julian, in this game, and had a lot of fun putting together her background (I'm not sure Arref knew what hit him the last couple of days before the Con). It was a small game, only five players, all of them good, and we had such a good time interacting with each other that we didn't manage to finish during the four hour slot. Despite that, it was still one of my favorite games this year, and whole opening bit with Random and Moire was just wonderful. Not to mention the bit where Mirelle, with an army at her back, realizes that Julian has actually actually reproduced and decides this is just too much for her to deal with, turns around, and goes back into Shadow. :)

Michael Croft - Parker, son of Bleys
Kris Fazzari - Juliana, daughter of Julian
Jim Groves - Aiden, son of Bleys
Ginger Stampley - Lamira, daughter of Florimel
Liz Trumitch - Valentine, granddaughter of Bleys

"(Moire's) like a fish out of water." -- Michael Croft to the group

"I'll offer to help." -- Valentine
"Of course not, you'll get your hands dirty." -- librarian
"Well, I can't really argue with that." -- Valentine

"Benedict told you? Then why are you sitting on it? It's Benedict. He keeps your ass safe." -- Martin to Random
"That should be his slogan." -- Michael Croft

"Mother may have been declared legally dead...again." -- Lamira

"Not in the third eye! No poking out my third eye, please." -- Ginger Stampley to Michael Croft

"Tell me that you do not call (Morganstern) Morgy." -- Lamira
"Um, no." -- Juliana

There was a quick lunch break at the lunch buffet, which actually had different things each day this year, rather than sandwiches each time. I was very happy to see this, since I couldn't eat meat that day (Friday during Lent). So I happily helped myself to a salad with egg and other goodies, along with some tortellini salad (surprisingly, no tuna available) and headed up to Deb Atwood's "A Common Disaster" for slot 3. ACD is a PbEM game that also runs FtF at Ambercon and The Black Road. It was fun putting faces to some people I'd only known through online interactions (and in some cases realize I'd been completely mispronouncing their character names in my head). I was playing Kenric Induma, a Moonrider of Ghenesh and member of the recent Gheneshi delegation to Amber. I didn't get a chance to interact much with the other characters at the game, since the delegation had only recently arrived in Amber, but Deb kept Kenric more than busy enough with the revelation that her father is actually an Amberite (still don't know who), and walking the Pattern for the first time. Still having a blast playing through the repercussions of that online.

Keith Cripe - Hawke, son of Gérard
Michael Croft - Gareth, son of Benedict
Kris Fazzari - Kenric, daughter of unknown
Jim Groves - Roarke, son of Bleys
Joshua Katzman - Jame, wife of Liana (daughter of Brand)
BriAnne Searles - Anna, daughter of Caine
Ginger Stampley - Martin, son of Random and Morganthë
Paul Weimer - Cadmus, son of unknown

"You have enough information to put it together once you figure it out." -- GM to Jame

"This is subtle, for Jame. The building's still standing." -- Josh Katzman to the group

"I take Taggert from the rear." -- Hawk to GM

"You're trying to disarm (Taggert)?" -- GM
"If by disarm you mean dis-arm." -- Hawk

"No, you're not eating Taggart." -- Anna
"It's like eating sushi, you've gotta try it at least once." -- Jame

"You crash through the door and the alarms start going off." -- GM to Gareth
"Apparently this is a night for subtlety." -- Joshua Katzman

"I may wind up having to explain to my father why I had to kill his sister." -- Martin to the group

"It sounds like Brendon is too stupid to be responsible for his treason." -- Michael Croft to the group

"You do not fuck a son of Brand." -- Ginger Stampley
"How was (Gen) supposed to know? It's not like there's a day-glo sign or a bar code on him that says, 'Son of Brand.'" -- GM

"Poor Brendon, he thinks this is rescue, and they're hurting him." -- GM
"We can rescue him unconsciously." -- Gareth

"I forgot (that Brendon's) been felt up by the Logrus before." -- GM to the group

Dinner, quite frankly, sucked big time. The group of people I was going to eat dinner with decided to go to the Lone Star Steakhouse, which, since I couldn't eat any meat, would have meant sitting around watching everyone else eat food I couldn't eat but wanted to. I'm not even remotely that masochistic. So I went down to the hotel restaurant, but everyone was eating at tables that had no more room. Plus, the restaurant menu had almost nothing on it that didn't have meat or seafood (which I despise) in it. So dinner consisted of free chips, dip and three drinks from the Manager's Reception, along with fries that JS kindly donated from his dinner plate. Bleh. On the plus side, I did eventually manage to squeeze in at a table, so I wasn't eating alone for the entire "meal."

After that, it was time for slot 4. This was "Ill Met in Amber," an ongoing campaign by Chris Kindred, where we play members of Amber society, but not royals, in the time leading up to Patternfall. I play Madeline Dumas, wine merchant by day, member of Amber's Secret Service by night. The GM promised more action this year, and there were thankfully fewer players, probably helped by the fact that Chris ran a session of the game in slot 1 as well. Still, I really didn't do much of anything until 11pm, at which point a bunch of us got to fight our way past, among other things, dire crocodiles, attempting to arrest a Duke who was also one of the Crime Lords. Much bloody mayhem ensued. So, I had a good time once things started happening, but I'm tempted next year to sign up for something else, then drop by when that game ends, knowing things will probably just be getting started in Ill Met. The game did end with a nice bit of surprise manipulation that potentially opened up the position of Duchess of Carlisle, and thus spawned many signs and posters around the hotel for the rest of the Con. So if you were wondering what all those <insert name here> for Duchess signs were about, now you know.

"(Ambrose) is our favorite High Mage." -- Kris Fazzari
"He's our only High Mage." -- Scott Whitney

"I am never going on a date with Brand...ever." -- Patrice
"You say that every year." -- GM

"Does anyone need several hundred ornamental rat statues? A variety of poses are available." -- Max to the group

"It's possible that House Sabatini has a Haliburtonesque role (in Aidran)." -- Fionntán to the group

"Lovely exotic creatures from far places...kill them all." -- Arryl to her Weir

"There's nothing worse than wet Weir." -- GM to the group

"Does O'Donovan have armor?" -- Kris Fazzari
"Yeah, they're called marines." -- Keith Cripe

"I'm going to be glad I wasn't at this scene, right up until the house I'm in burns down." -- Patrice to the group

"Weir medicine is all about the tongue." -- Arryl to the group

"Because you should always pee before the house gets set on fire." -- Liz Trumitch to Ginger Stampley

Saturday

Saturday is the day of the long slot games. First up in slot 5 was "When the Queen Says, 'Go and Die...,'" a serial game also by Chris Kindred. It's a fun game, not too serious, in which everyone plays a Musketeer, or someone associated with them, using a slight different stats system (Wits, Panache, Finesse, Resolve and Brawn). My character, Marcel Delmar, is actually a woman who disguised herself as a man to join the Musketeers and find her missing brother, then decided that she liked it so much that she stayed even after her brother was found. I think the first game of the series had at least three women disguised as men in it, and the odds haven't gotten any better since. In this game, though, we had a woman disguised as a man who was doing it so badly that it was funny. Like she kept wearing a corset around. So the rest of the women disguised as men kept trying to give her tips. :) The game involved the usual swashbuckling, brawling and drinking while we tried to figure out the meaning of a mysterious death at the beginning of the game, and we actually had to save the Cardinal at the end (now there's something I never thought I'd see). Surprisingly, for once Marcel didn't interact with the Man in Black, although we did run into him at the end. I think we probably had a few too many players this year for some people, and I wouldn't mind seeing it capped off at 10, if possible.

Matt Andrews - Xavier Philipe de la Vin Rouge, Musketeer
J.P. Brannan - Alexis Vigaroux, Musketeer, Duke of Averoigne
Paul Burdick - Artemis D'Arc, the Blade of Aquataine, the Protector of the Virtue of the Queen, Musketeer
Sasha Burdick - Armand D'Arc, younger brother/older sister of Artemis, Musketeer
Anne Delekta - Sylvie/Sylvan, female Musketeer disguised as a man
Linda Duncan - Charles Detoit, female Musketeer disguised as a man
Kris Fazzari - Marcel Delmar, female Musketeer disguised as a man
Madeline Ferwerda - Guiral, Musketeer and agent of his family's vineyard
Ben Fogt - Frederick, former merchandizing apprentice to Chester, a murdered wealthy merchant
William Gulstad - Lupin le Fou, Musketeer
Sean McCabe - Will, Musketeer, former spy
Glen Seymour - Sydney Sylvain, Musketeer
Tymen VanDyk - Armande Berenger de la Valencoeur, Musketeer

"If you encounter a man wearing black, you should ask for more detail." -- J.P. Brannan to the group

"I suggested a visit (to the Countess de la Fleur). Someone took that to mean break into her house while she was there!" -- Alexis to the group

"They discovered that Esteban was the long-lost cousin of the Queen of Spain. Carnivorous goatherd being the traditional foster family for the royal family of Spain." -- Matt Andrews to the group

"There have been other better-dressed Mustketeers (than Alexis)." -- J.P. Brannan
"Most of them were women." -- GM

"Armand is the younger brother but the older sister (of Artemis)." -- Sasha Burdick to the group

"You lose certain Panache points for servant genocide." -- GM to Matt Andrews

"Once again the best fencer in the Musketeers is a cross-dressing woman." -- GM to the group

"Charles is the luckiest Musketeer. This is why he's still alive. And didn't lose the arm." -- GM
"By the grace of God." -- Charles
"And Bugger's Ale." -- Armande

"So, we're invited to this party and oh, by the way, there might be ninjas?" -- Marcel to Frederick
"Spanish ninjas. Will they be bringing their own wine or drinking ours?" -- GM

"You've never had goat until you've had carnivorous goat." -- Kris Fazzari
"The meal that bites back." -- Matt Andrews

"You will arrive fashionably late to your own party?" -- GM to Alexis

"Help! Soldiers of the Cardinal! Help!" -- Cardinal's Guardsman, being attacked
"Well, he didn't ask for a Musketeer, so (Alexis) can just ignore him." -- Kris Fazzari to J.P. Brannan

"Maybe (Alexis) was successful with the Countess." -- Charles
"No. Once again, I know the level of his style." -- Sydney

"That's why Alexis keeps going after the Countess. She's the only woman that Alexis is relatively certain is actually a woman." -- Glen Seymour to the group

"Is she a woman of negotiable affection?" -- Paul Burdick to Linda Duncan
"Her virtue contains a certain commercial element?" -- J.P. Brannan quoting Terry ?

"It's a macho battle to the death with the string cheese. And it's wily, I'm just saying." -- GM
"It's embarrassing when the string cheese has more wits than the GM." -- Linda Duncan

"Your sense of wine cellar emptiness is going off, letting you know there are Musketeers in your house." -- GM to Alexis
"Based on the current emptiness compared to the level when last you checked, you estimate they've been here for 12 hours." -- Kris Fazzari
"I will attempt to slow the rate of emptying by asking to speak to the Musketeers." -- Alexis

"Alexis has never had this many men in his bedroom before." -- GM
"And he still hasn't." -- Kris Fazzari
"He's never had this many women in his bedroom before, either." -- GM

"I wait patiently for (the Musketeers) to reach the conclusion that I've already announced." -- Alexis to the group

"'To the tavern!' is the rallying cry of the Musketeers." -- Kris Fazzari to the group

"I think we should find Rene Decart." -- Alexis to the group
"That's putting Decart before the horse." -- Paul Burdick

"I researched to find out the fan symbol for 'tell me everything you know about the Cardinal's Guard.'" -- Sylvan to the group
"There is no symbol for that." -- Kris Fazzari
"Yes there is, it's when (you) hit them over the head with the fan repeatedly." -- Anne Delekta

"The Cardinal is going out to smite the heathens and lay upon their asses a holy smackdown." -- GM to various Musketeers
"I especially like your use of the French vernacular." -- Kris Fazzari

"If (the Huguenots are) going to assassinate the first Minister of France (AKA the Cardinal), should we stop them?" -- Armande to Alexis

"Those of you in stately, singed Alexis manor...." -- GM to the group

Dinner on Saturday was much better - a bunch of us did our annual outing to the Bonfire Bistro, and tasty steak was had. It was also probably the fastest meal I've ever had there, once we communicated the fact that we were under a time crunch to the waiter.

Then it was off to change into my costume for my slot 6 game, "Morpheus Falling" by James Arnoldi. This was the final game in a series where you could play anyone you wanted, a character from fiction, TV, movies, gaming, etc. I played Aeryn Sun from the Farscape TV series. This was the best game of the series, except possibly for the first one. We only had three players, so we got to spend a lot more time doing stuff of interest to our characters. For Aeryn, that meant spending a lot of time in the Matrix, since that was the only time that Soul Catcher wasn't stuck in her head, still looking for John Crighton and Moya. This is something she's been doing since the very first game, although usually there wasn't enough time to deal with it as more than a throwaway line as to what Aeryn had been doing between games. There was a great bit where Aeryn finally found John, after 20 years of searching, and Morpheus tried to get her to leave the Matrix. She almost shot him. Having the conversations between Aeryn and Soul Catcher when they were outside of the Matrix and sharing a body was great fun too. In the end, all ended well, with Soul Catcher getting a body for herself (that of the original Brand) and Aeryn managing to save Talyn, Moya, and her crew from the destruction of the Matrix. So everything ended happily. Or did it? Aeryn's last scene involved her waking up and for just a moment seeing symbols moving across the ceiling, and feeling like there was something stuck in the back of her neck....

J.P. Brannan - Adrienne McCullough, clone of Fiona
Kris Fazzari - Officer Aeryn Sun, former Peacekeeper, clone of Deirdre
Leslie Lightfoot - Soul Catcher, clone of Brand

"I'm going to go into the Matrix and try to Trump Morpheus. No, wait, I'm going to go into the Matrix and Trump Morpheus." -- Adrienne
"What's the difference?" -- GM
"Adrienne wouldn't say 'try'." -- J.P. Brannan

"(I discovered I could shape shift because) I blew off my twin sister's head and it grew back." -- Adrienne to the group

"The rat's rather uncomfortable with how the man is holding him." -- GM to Soul Catcher
"It's not a good touch." -- J.P. Brannan

"While you're doing that, you sense that this world is shrinking." -- GM
"Well, that will make it easier to find my Trump deck." -- Adrienne

"Are you crazy?" -- Aeryn
"You have to ask?" -- Adrienne

"Any other artifacts that look like artifacts of power? Paper clips, stapler...." -- Adrienne to GM

"Look, if you want me to keep it quiet, quit killing yourself." -- Morpheus to Soul Catcher

Sunday

As usual, I stayed up late talking to people, and the change to daylight savings time didn't help matters any. At least I remembered to reset my clock before I went to bed, only because I happend to notice that the clock on my computer was now an hour ahead of my watch. Still, with only four hours of sleep, I was definitely dragging.

Slot 7 was "Blaze of Glory: Chaos' Fleets" by Sol Foster, the penultimate session of this ongoing campaign. We all play members of Bleys' Elite Guard in a Shadow he controls, originally with no knowledge of Amber or other Shadows - my character is Lorianne, a pirate queen and long-time member of the Guard. Once a gloriously silly thing, the game has been somewhat grimmer with the advent of the Black Road running through the Shadow. Our mission this time? Stop Chaos' fleets from continuing down the Black Road to Amber. An impossible task? Not for Bleys' Elite Guard! We set an ambush in a nearby Shadow, with French ships, Italian marines, Bleys-worshiping fanatics and a giant, disgusting heart of Chaos. And they died and died - and I don't just mean the forces of Chaos. At the end, we had one ship (Lorianne's Revenge, ironically Ruin was sunk), the PCs in the Guard, and one or two others. But we'd decimated the Chaos fleet. I guess that explains why their attack on Amber was primarily over land. :)

J.P. Brannan - Ewan Burnett, AKA "The Worst Sailor in the Guard"
Kris Fazzari - Lorianne, Duchess of Brittany, AKA "The Pirate Queen"
William Gulstad - Cyrano Savinien Hercule de Bergerac, Marquis of ? (anyone remember what title Philippe gave him?)

Liz Trumitch - Jayne Green, AKA "Plain Jayne"
Edwin Voskamp - Lord Dagincourt, Sir Jeffery de Goulon AKA "The Gray Ghost"
Jennifer Woelke - Robyn Sage, medic

"But we can stop them if we are clever, and smart, and brave." -- Bleys
"Well, two out of three isn't bad." -- Lorianne

"If my sword melts and my body doesn't, I'll kill them with my bare hands." -- Jayne to the group

"Bleys hasn't told me specifically not to kill my sister yet." -- Jayne to the group

"What ships are you taking, what soldiers are you taking?" -- Philippe
"All of them!" -- Lorianne

"Jayne has given up on ever being sane again." -- Liz Trumitch
"Again?" -- Kris Fazzari and Cal Rea

"Rachel's hair is cut short now, so she and Jayne look like sisters. From behind, in the right light, they almost look alike." -- Liz Trumitch
"It's a good thing Ewan won't take her from behind." -- Kris Fazzari
"No, Ewan will take her from above." -- Cal Rea
"Not before asking her name first." -- J.P. Brannan

"We're bringing along lots of planes because we'll need spares." -- Ewan to the group

"If you get shipwrecked on the island full of Bleys worshipers, you either adapt or get eat." -- Jayne to the group

"Bleys by name and blaze by nature." -- Guy Gascoigne-Piggford
"You can't have a religion based on Bleys that doesn't involve self-immolation." -- Cal Rea

"I descend into full-on Bleys worshipper mode." -- Jayne to the group
"So it's just another day in Jayneland?" -- Kris Fazzari

"Ideally, I'd like to get on the ship that's listing." -- Jayne to the group
"Because it makes perfect sense to board the ship that's already starting to sink!" -- Cal Rea

"So Reality is good at letting you know when you're fucked." -- Kris Fazzari to the group

"This arm is not going to work very well later." -- Jayne to the group, after getting run through the arm
"It's not going to work very well now." -- Kris Fazzari

"Well, the good news is that the parts that are on fire are the parts that are the most protected." -- GM to Jayne

"It's like using the Death Star against Amber. Sure, it doesn't work, but then it drops out of the sky." -- J.P. Brannan to the group

"As soon as the (turtle's) head emerges, it breathes..." -- GM
"Fire!" -- Lorianne
"No, it doesn't breathe fire." -- GM
"No, that was me ordering my cannons to fire at it." -- Lorianne

"I'd rather kill six-armed lords of Chaos any day than touch that nasty fucking (Chaos) heart." -- Jayne to the group

"I think under the water is the safest place to be right now." -- Lorianne
"You mean the water full of burning oil, sea monsters and a giant turtle destroying everything around it as it suffers epileptic seizures? That water?" -- GM

"Your grappling hook goes through (the Chaos lord's) chest and rips his upper torso off." -- GM to Ewan
"Are you left facing an angry pair of legs?" -- Ewan to Robin

Plain Jayne of London Town
Watched the ships of Chaos drown
Got in the water and walked around
While the fire burned upside-down
Plain Jayne of London Town
-- Cal Rea to the group

"You're walking on water next to Bleys - I don't think it gets any better than that." -- Philippe to Jayne

"(Jayne) looks like Joan of Arc dressed in a ninja wetsuit with two swords." -- Cal Rea to Liz Trumitch

"The phrase you're looking for is, 'Eat Herring, bitch!'" -- Cal Rea to Liz Trumitch

"Before Bleys gets attracted to this woman, she must die." -- Jayne to GM

"We're all motivated by different things." -- Jayne to the group

Slot 8, the last slot of the Con, was Sean McCabe's "Dude! Who's Our Student Council President," the third game in the Dude! series. I played Random AKA Randy, the same character I played in last year's "Corwin and Random Go to White Castle." This year, it was a throne war, of sorts, with students competing to be elected Student Council President, or at least trying to keep other students from being elected. The game got surprisingly vicious (well, for a Dude game), but I had a blast playing Randy with his pal G-Man (AKA Gérard), trying to figure out how not to get elected but still remain cool. I do think I enjoyed last year's game a bit more, probably because we weren't always attacking each other (at least not on purpose). But this year definitely had the coolest Power Word of the Con: Detention! Next year, the GM is considering running "Dudesicle! The Musical." Clearly we didn't break him badly enough this time.

Matt Andrews - Brand, sulky goth kid, sits around smoking clove cigarettes and writing poems with the word Abyss in them
Sean Dorsey - Julian, the back-woods country-boy who until recently was home-schooled by his Uncle Jeb
Kris Fazzari - Random AKA Randy, surfer dude, slacker and pot head
Madeline Ferwerda - Gérard, AKA Gerry or G-Man, jock, muscle-head, star offensive player for the Amberite Purple Unicorns
George Gitari - Benedict, the AV Geek who's spent a little too much time reading comics and watching kung-fu movies, and a little too little time showering
Rachel Holmberg - Deirdre, rebellious punk girl whose CD changer's full of singers that are mad at their dad
Ray Laura - Corwin, the ambigiously gay head of the drama club
Diana Probst - Fiona, Ms. Goody-Two-Shoes, straight A's and a member of Year Book, Mathletics, Debate Team, etc.
Irene Schwarting - Flora, head Chearleader, most popular girl in school, she's a Barbie Girl, like, fer sure!
Mark Wizynajtys - Caine, the greasy older kid who's been held back a few grades, smokes too much, rides a motorcycle to school and picks on all the other kids

"The winner of the election gets to be the next Duchess Carlyle." -- GM to the group

"I was locked in Flora's closet while she was taking on the football team." -- Fiona to the group
"That gives a while new meaning to 'taking on the football team.'" -- Kris Fazzari

"Oberon wears the Jewel as part of his...bling?" -- Irene Schwarting to the group

"Brand, I'm thinking English (is your first class)." -- GM
"I'm thinking Cosmic Annihilation." -- Brand
"That's an upper-level class." -- GM

"I'm going to burn this place down." -- Brand to himself, many times

"Dude, (Flora's) totally hot." -- G-Man
"Dude, I'd totally do her, I just wouldn't do her homework." -- Randy

"Fiona, you're getting a Trump call." -- GM
"Excuse me, I'm going to go have a hallucination." -- Fiona
"Dude, this is good pot!" -- Randy and G-Man

"I crush Benedict's brain. But I do it with my mind, so I doubt it's going to work." -- G-Man to GM

"That's why you rewrite the universe, to erase the memory (of the Benedict, Brand, Dara sandwich). -- GM to Brand

"I throw a dodgeball through a wall at Benedict." -- G-Man
"It totally misses." -- Benedict
"Because Benedict always anticipates dodgeballs thrown at him." -- Matt Andrews

"Dude, even I'm not crazy enough to smoke pot in the Principal's office." -- Randy to the group

"I'm going to fill Benedict's locker with bees." -- G-Man
"Benedict, you hear a buzzing noise coming from your locker." -- GM
"I don't open it." -- Benedict

"It's a bong that gets stoned." -- George Gitari
"Dude, what else would the two pot-heads invent?" -- Kris Fazzari

"Because Benedict is always prepared for a locker full of bees. Much more than Brand is." -- GM to the group
(This is especially funny when you recall that last year, we had the exchange:
"I should totally try this trick with Benedict sometime." -- G-Man to the group, still conjuring the bees that are now stinging Brand
"Yes, but Benedict always anticipates bees." -- Matt Andrews)

"(Dara's) like this magic princess, who when she gets high, she gets hot!" -- G-Man to Flora

"I've never had to pull someone out in the hall for a Dude game before." -- GM to the group

"(Principal O) says, 'Get to class,' and it's not a power word, but you think you should listen." -- GM to the group

"Your pot supply never ran out the whole time you were in detention. Of course, that might have something to with the amount of pot you carry around with you." -- GM to Randy

"I haven't gone to my locker in 16 years." -- Caine to the group

"I'm not saying you can't do it, but man that's disgusting, especially if you do it to a man." -- GM to Brand

"Next year, I'm running Dude in an old age home." -- GM
"'Dude, Where's My Teeth?'" -- Mark Wizynajtys

"That night never happened." -- Brand
"What night...sweetie?" -- Benedict

"In Dude canon...I can't believe I said that." -- Matt Andrews to the group
