09:57 @blue_cat_online Thanks love! The C Chain are doing SO much - i am currently in awe. The STs are rocking on as well and everyone's so keen! #
09:58 @the_eggwhite Read our minds :) Now it's just to the writing + making sure that there's plenty that STs can personalise for all venues! #
10:13 Just in case folks following this wonder why I've gone "Cam UK" mad. These will be on my NST LJ. Just trying to keep people in the loop. #

Plot kits! GIMMIE!

2008-09-08T10:01:27Z

Hey folks,

In an effort to create a stockpile of basic plotkits for new
domains/games/sts for every venue we run I'm asking you chaps and
chapesses for a hand.

I am looking for basic plotkits varying from non-venue specific,
venue specific, short term, mid term, long term, socially orientated
etc Not all will be used but those that are will be compensated with
5 or 10 National prestige depending on the kit supplied.

The deadline for contributions will be the 30th of September.

The blank plot kit format which will need to be used is available
from myself at nst@camarilla.org.uk - also point any and all
questions about it at me there as well.

Thanks

Ehem

2008-07-14T12:16:31Z

Sign up, tune in, rock out

2008-06-27T13:51:58Z

I would recommend keeping your eyes on http://www.camarilla.org.uk/ic/news.shtml as the aNSTs will be using it more and nabbing VST stories from reports to get things out there!!

We are the Champions

2008-06-19T14:08:55Z

What can I say? Baz is a bloody gem!!

He took a poor pocketed NST UK out and we got absolutely trollied. He sang loudly whilst we staggered down Oxford street.. he is truely fabulous.

We've got plans so you best watch this space :)

Also i suggest you get your bums to the Irish National! We have been guaranteed a damn good time :D

Onwards and upwards chappies!

Now that my hangover's gone anyway.

Wednesday Wednesday

2008-06-11T15:03:52Z

So good to me!

Right - next Wednesday me and the NST Ireland are going for a few bevvies in London.

I'm not saying there's a sort of drinking contest going on, only that I shall drink slowly and carefully and then have some documents for him to sign once the evening is done.

Any requests?

Anyone want to have my hangover for me?

Ooooo! I love em

2008-06-05T11:25:07Z

My day has been perked by two fantastic emails re: The National from our Italians in attendance (Federico and Claudia)

We have ties being built now in two of our venues with Italy - which is something i'm looking forward to persuing! Also looks like they'll be back for the Southern :D

Happy NST

NPC Request - Southern Regional 2008 Forsaken

2008-06-04T23:38:46Z

The Southern is looking to be in Peterborugh on the first weekend of October - booking confirmation pending

Southern Regional Forsaken – NPC All Call

After a long blether with the Lead ST for the Southern Regional Forsaken game, Joe Doherty, we managed to formulate a "What we want"
list with regard to NPCs.

So without further ado:

One slightly large or strong built fellow who is not afraid to throw himself about a bit and make a lot of noise, must be ok with heavy costuming and makeup.

Six tall, tall-ish individuals (you don't have to be THAT tall but some would be nice, we're ideally looking at three tall folk and the
rest can vary) who don't mind heavy make up, costume, stilt-walking (not HUGE mega stilts but leedle ones).

On top of that there will be Spirits that need to be NPCed at some point or another.

If you want to NPC for the Forsaken Game then please contact myself at fran.dale@gmail.com or the Forsaken ST Lead for the Regional – Joe Doherty at retephpesoj@googlemail.com

Thanks

Thanks to the folk who've already volunteered - blimey! You're Keen ;)

Before i give the list I want to repeat my unending thanks to the current aNSTs and everything they've done/been doing/still doing. Volunteering can be hard ruddy work and it's hard to try and provide the best for everyone, thank you to them for facing up to that and
doing some awesome work!

Thanks again to everyone who applied, it was overwhelming how many folk applied.

So without further ado:

Awakening: Áine MacLennan
Team Created: Roger Kennedy, Kirsty Chilton
Forsaken: Rik Sowden
Lost: Becky Spence
Mortals: Steve Clapton
Requiem: David Mitchell
NST Legacy: Matt Hope

The aNST Rules Call will go out in the next couple of days.

I really DO mean thanks to all the aNSTs that have put heart n soul into the venues. It's been hugely hugely appreciated.

Just a couple of mentions

2008-06-01T23:46:12Z

Everyone who took part in the national did a bang up job, from the player participation, to the prop making, to the NPCing, Co-ordinating, to the helping out with STing (Especially those helping out in venues they had noooooo clue about - thanks so much!) and obviously the STs.

I just want to mention three people, really, who made me stop and wish i had had something to give them to show my appreciation.

Liam Dennis - every time i hear more about this guy the more I wish i knew him better! Great RPer, great ST and this weekend he threw himself 100% at everything. He did some great NPCing and the effort he put into even that really shone through. Rock on!

Jason Farley - The tall Kiwi gentleman who has just joined us membership wise this very month and has been playing Requiem down in London for a couple of months now. Talk about in jumping in the deepend :) He just took everything he got in any venue he played (whether or not it was the pre-gen he got handed for Forsaken or the last minute character he came up with in Mortals or his wonderful Requiem PC) and was involving, engaging and fantastically energetic about it all. Many an ST or player had lovely things to say about him, he's a brave soul!

Lastly, Nick Webb.
Not only for once again putting up with some bad singing in the car but more importantly for being such a bloody gentleman. Instead of letting folk who were having serious trouble with accomodation have to struggle without transport to and from the venue, he let them stay, at the last minute, in his room whilst he slept in his car to make room for them.

That's all really.

Fran

Irish National 2008 - go go go!

2008-06-01T21:04:01Z

Get your bums over there! Sounds like it's going to be a real laugh and the NST has promised to show us some real "Hospitality". Let me know if you're planning on heading over and i'll give Baz a heads up!!

National

2008-06-01T20:38:52Z

Was good to see folks there, sorry not to see some others but well, reasons is reasons.

I'm after pictures - me dears - I know Liam from York has some awesome ones of the Crone ritual on the Friday that i simply must get my paws on - but if folks could post links I would really appreciate it!

I'm just gutted i didn't get any of the awesome Invictus meeting, but I was too busy being in awe IC to be snapping OOC :(
