A short summary of the GaryCon goings on

[thebitterguy]

We ran 3.5 Tomb of Horrors. They managed to survive finding all three entrances.

In the first one, with the dodgy roof, the Ogre Barbarian actually said "Throg prods roof". Too easy, I thought.

Then, they hit most of the pit traps in the real hallway, but did not fall victim to either the Green mouth (they were very good at interpreting the warning), although they did not solve the misty doorway.

Unfortunately, being somewhat tenderized by the hall, they were easy pickings for the four armed mutant gargoyle, who went through them like a warm katana through soy margarine.

It turns out it was the first adventure for the host's GF & his roommate, which made my Catholic school guilt instinct kick in.

The whole thing was made moot by the Hawt Asian Chicks having a photo shoot in his lobby. Thank god for Lobbycam!

I remember surviving TOH, but only with having a 17th level MU. Sheesh that must have been the summer of 1980 or 1981...

I've heard others have tacked the project by driving a heard of sheep or other animals into all three entrances to trigger most of the traps.

that was actually discussed as an option...

To be honest, it wasn't the traps that were so bad. It was the gargoyle that just got silly.

What really bugs me is that I can't remember any Hawt Asian Chicks in the front lobby of the Tomb of Horrors.

Your GM was doing it wrong.
