The Report on...
Bath 2009 PPC Gathering
Bath 2007 PPC Gathering
Salt Lake City 2008 PPC Gathering
OR
There And Back Again: A PPCer's Tale
This is a pretty epic report; it ran to fifteen pages in Word, and I've split it across two webpages to save those of you with slower connections, because there's a lot of pictures in there.
So, if you've ever wondered what happens when PPCers from various nations get together at my insistence, wonder no more, but read on, brave Boarder! Read on!
Etc, etc, etc.

And pretty pictures!
Isn't a ha-ha mentioned in one of the Discworld novels?

Now, see, here is something I did not expect: you encountered a flock of Pidgins while you were gallivanting about..
Which, I suppose, explains where the rest of them went.
Good show. -

Hm. If only I weren't a minor living in America, then I could join the fun. Bugger.

Now that's one masterful retelling of the three tales. I love the way you interwove the three separate plot threads and made them work together like that. Wish I could have been there. :( Still! There's the one next month, which I will be attending.
Also, now you've mentioned Star Wars/Roman History crossovers, I get the strange urge to go and actually write some... -

I deny those accusations of being a spoilsport and a showoff, though. It isn't my fault I'm cleverer than you.

Seriously, though, good synopsis. Synopses. Either way. The picture with the portal is really good--the people in the background seem like they're leaning away from it. I also enjoyed the MST of the game shop.
... Nobody got a picture of the mini Mary-Sues, did they? Alas. Keeping straight faces until they were gone was an epic feat.
Also, I think the people here deserve a rendition of your speech about the canals, if you can remember it. *g*

... of your photos. There's just a couple of things I didn't record, which is always a shame.
... I speech'd about the canals? I have no idea what I said, sadly. These impromptubouts of nonsensethings always slip my mind.

I remember the gist of the speech. It went a bit like this:
"Back when you Americans were building railroads, the English had been there, done that, and had moved on to new and different forms of travel. Such as rivers. Where there weren't actual rivers, we made our own. Ergo, canal."
... It was really funny in person.
