| Most of our events were held in The
Lab, but some of our fun is just too big for that space.
In particular, there's this thing we do called Andy
vs. Everybody. Here's how things looked in one of the three
sessions we did: |

Something new we started doing this year was giving out these
ribbons whenever I lost a game:
Naturally, everybody wanted to earn one of these, which ended
up being something of a problem; since only the actual winner
gets a ribbon, folks became a lot more interested in two player
games like Volcano. I think we're going to need to start enforcing
the ten-game rule (limiting the number of games I can be in to
the number of little flags we actually have) and requiring that
people play in bigger groups rather than trying to start up their
own 1-on-1 matches with me. But anyway, it was great fun as usual!

However, there was one pyramid game people wanted
to play with the big pieces but which wasn't an option, due our
lack of a gigantic board: World
War 5. So Bryan Stout took up the challenge, starting with
a big blank canvas and a bunch of jars of paint, and this became
this year's big "Rabbit Craft" project. It was a lot
of work, but by the end of the weekend, they had the whole thing
done!

Here you see Bryan and Jessie Clark
(who I think worked on it the hardest) as they enjoy the end
result: |

it (from left to right): Annie Stout, Laura Marsh, Bryan Stout,

| Speaking of elaborate arts &
crafts projects, here's Petra with another pyramid-themed tiara.
She's been making a new one every year for many years now! |

We put this big bulletin board up at the Registration
area, to let everyone know about all the cool stuff we have going
on in the Lab... |
It
used to be a struggle to find a recycling bin in the convention
Center, but now they have these big wonderful "single-stream"
collection bins! Yay!
