The Scotto Grotto (org)

From rgladiator… a lovely way to urinate on spammers.

wpoison – a nifty little cgi program to kick spammers in the nards. if you don’t know, or can’t use cgi, they welcome you to link to theirs.

I made it inside the house *just* in time to avoid the storm. Yay! It’s coming down pretty nicely now… it was sprinkling earlier, but the ride home was dry. A good test of the bike’s splashguards. There are a zillion tiny frogs jumping around near the alyssum on the east side of my place. I thought that they were bugs at first… literally the size of large ladybugs.

Random Scotto opinion / factoid:

I liked Murphy Brown, before all the politics showed up, then it mostly sucked…. as opposed to the Ellen show, which was mostly stinky throughout the few episodes that I’d seen.

Oh, coolio…This radio-controlled flying-saucer incorporates a programmable LCD on which you can add your own scrolling message, i.e., “I paid $99 for a radio-controlled flying saucer!”

On the way home, past Mickey-D’s… I noticed that they’re selling hot dogs, now? How long has that been going on? I imagine it’d have done well, if they started in July 4. I see that the Cuban food that they tried is no longer there. Bleh…

Public schools officially opened today… wow, does the traffic pick up at that point. Who’d have thought that a yellow bus or nine would make such a difference? Of course, I live within four blocks of an elementary school.

Well, looks like Scotto forgot to hit post! Nigh nigh, dear journal!

scenario idea –

Hostage Situation

The villains have taken several people hostage in a small office building. The police have called in the heroes to free the hostages and capture the villainous fiends. Which side will emerge from this conflict victorious?

This game takes place on the Indoor map that is included with the Starter Set. Six tokens to represent hostages (or, if you picked up some terrain like I did, you can use the little figs that come with for that) .

One player creates a team of villains with a total value of 150 points and no more than 4 figures. The villain characters start the game anywhere (except the room with the hostages) in the indoor area on the side of the map where the round reception desk is located. Place the hostage tokens anywhere in the room adjacent to the reception area (the room in the corner of the map).

The hero player team may have up to 150 points and five figures in his team. The heroes start the game anywhere in the indoor areas on the opposite side of the map (the outdoor terrain is between the two teams when the game begins).

Each hostage can take two clicks of damage before dying. Use the terrain tokens from the Starter Set to keep track of damage to hostages.

Victory
Determine victory points as you normally would with these exceptions. Any hostages who do not survive reduce the victory point total of the hero team player by 25. All hostages who survive the scenario add 15 points to the hero player’s victory point total.

Hostages (dead or alive) do not affect the victory point total of the villain player.
