New Zealand holiday, the War Against Swine
Jan. 8th, 2007 07:15 pmThe holiday with ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
caseopaya to The South Island of New Zealand was, as usual, full of landscapes of sublime beauty and fuelled by a bottle of cognac (courvoisier v.s.o.p.) and chocolate (ferro rocher).
OK, this is a long post but with a mere paragraph per day and pretty pictures I promise it's worth spending a few minutes reading.
( The New Zealand holiday in brief )
On the way back I jotted in my dairy plans for the coming year on a day-by-day basis. Must make sure this is not interrupted by interesting job offers (for the next few months at least). Return home was to investigate the destruction of our cheap couch by the two grumpy rabbits. Lots of love toseverina_242 for checking on our pets during our absence and warning us of impending lagamorph devastation.
Amusing gaming news occured whilst I was on holiday. Apparently becausehedgehog39 (really hedgehogs are much nicer than that) didn't like being painted into a corner over the importance of theory to role-playing games, he appealed to a chap who calls himself RPGPundit who has declared war on "The Swine" (i.e., people who think theory is important) with yours truly as the assigned first victim. Already however, it is evident that the attack has faltered. Why? Because good theory produces good systems which helps gamers to become better players.
