Feast of Fools 2008
We arrived on site around 3 Friday and set up camp. Nothing much happened until some ditching later in the evening around 7 or so. The ditching really got good around midnight with maybe 30-40 people on the line. There were a couple of injuries and some "special" friends were made.
Saturday morning they held a hangover tourney at 8am. It was disorganized and many of the people who signed up for it didn't show. There was another tourney scheduled for 10, but that was canceled.
The Fools War happened around noon. It was supposed to be CG against everyone else. It turned out to be everyone else against mostly Saracens. It was so terribly one sided that I didn't get to throw a single shot, everyone was dead by the time I got to the line. On the third run our shield wall took a seat and watched the flankers sweep the entire other side.
After the Fools War Sir Haggis started a pick-up Class battle. This was fun, but small.
The company battle started around 3 and was run "ditch style". Our team, 4 Winds plus 2 others, tied for 3rd place. Omega; Sirs Goliath, Haggis and Sanchez; managed to herd the entire Saracen team, doing more damage than any other group.
Right before feast the rains came. By the time we got back to the site from showering everything was mud. Feast was apalling. The food was cold and the potatoes were raw in some cases.
After Court they did a Who's Line Is It Anyway game. This was very funny. Squires Armand, Justice and Pyro were hilarious as well as some Wardancer guy. We hung out until 5am then went to bed
Sunday morning showed just how muddy it had gotten. We packed up and headed home.
All in all the event is what I've come to expect from Crystal Groves. The events rarely run on time. The food is sub-par. The event is over priced. Hanging out with your friends is the only reason to go. -Kentigern
