OOG Natural Laws

There are some things that are immutable and particular to KR. I have started compiling a list and here are my first three:

1 - One does not need to consult the Farmer's Almanac to determine when precipitation is most likely to occur in Sparta. The KR Event calendar is more accurate.

2 - If one brings something nice to KR it will be damaged - first told to me by Jason T.

3 - No matter how much smoke and strobes are on hand, Jeff will use them all.

4 - Zach Theis will leave something behind in the statehouse.

5 - You can try to keep up with Matt Magnus when he is running somewhere, but you will fail.

The following are KR Theories, which as we all know, are almost as valid as laws:

1 - One's chance of quickly encountering James is inversely proportional to its importance.

2 - The month you volunteer to cook feast or major NPC, is when everyone needs your PC.

If this is a thread intended for group modification, we might be here a while... :lol:

At my 6th event, it did not rain. I was both IG and OOG confused...

Perhaps I was wearing my hat?

You will always forget to pack / bring one thing. If you somehow manage to remember everything, the supply you need to pick up will be out of stock on the way to camp.

There is a finite amount of sleep at KR, divided up among all the players. If you cannot sleep, wake someone else up.

I think some kind of law relating to my keys is in order, but I haven't the wit to come up with it.

^ THIS.

If you have to paint yourself for anything, you will be that color for the next two weeks

1.Corollary to Geoff's law:
If you do in fact manage to bring everything you need to camp, some of it will stay at camp as you lose it or forget it there.

2.You will lose only one thing at Camp Sac. However, it will be the most important thing you need IRL, and you will lose it every single month.
(for Bill it's his keys. As Charlie loves reminding me, for me it's my phone )

Any boots you have, no matter their color, will be a uniform "Camp Sac mud" brown by Sunday lay-off.

When walking down the path, you will inevitably step in the largest puddle. There is no way around it.

Actually, I think you were

As soon as you see James you forget what you needed him for.

Keep them coming and I will winnow them later. Remember, a Law means always, not mostly. i will have to cogitate on that.

It will pour when you play your makeup intensive alt

If a group of no less than 5 engage in a battle on the hill by the fork in the road to Winterdark from Alisandria, there will be an injury.

I have witnessed this. It is the place where your ankles go to die.

Matt M., Jason T., Chris Z., and Steve O. are all different timelines of the same persons hair.

You will only see James when you're not looking for him. The moment you start looking for him, he starts showing off his hide and seek skills.

Added a new category, Theories, with one from Diane and a version of Jeremy
s (since several people messaged me something similar). Sadly for Jeremy, a few actually found James quickly in the past

The rock/tree branch/divot you manage to skillfully avoid in the dark on Friday night will automatically trip you on Saturday afternoon.

when you are the last person in your state house to take off all of your garb and are about to go to bed, there will be a scream for help outside.

A lot of mods you want to be on will be during your NPC shift.

The fourth law has been added.

The one thing you elect to not carry with you when you leave your sleeping area will be the one thing you need most when you are farthest from said sleeping area.

There will come a time during your NPC shift where you love it so much that you are upset that you couldn't experience interacting with the NPC you played as while being your PC.

At least once per event while NPCing in a monster encounter, you will envy everyone you fight because it just so happens to be the perfect conditions for a fight that your PC would own in.

Vision during main MOD is completely unnecessary, simply use the shouting heat from everyone around you to guide your every move.

If you do not bring at least six pairs of socks, begin writing your last will.

When you wake up on the Monday after an event, DO NOT be afraid when you cannot move any parts of your body (legs, arms, neck etc...) Simply call into work that you are dying and enjoy a martini. Your body will eventually begin to work like normal when you are least expecting it.

Accidentally call the wrong skills during a fight and nobody bats an eye...Mention that you haven't had a drink of water in five minutes and everybody loses their minds.

If one of the Rochester crew shows up to a mod with a white headband and a big smile, bring your A game, it's gonna be a bumpy ride.

You can try to keep up with Matt Magnus when he is running somewhere, but you will fail.

Winter Dark is black and blue because they like to match the way that they leave your face when they are done with you.

If you are not a rules marshal, you are always wrong until a rules marshal says otherwise.

Bacon is love. Bacon is life.

Magnus does not die. He just leaves for a bit.

The big red gem and the big blue gem have zero gold value. Stop touching them.

You can, in fact win Knight Realms. All it takes is getting Jonas Kane and Count Sebastian Everest of Winterdark to have a rap battle in the middle of the inn.

Bring an extra pair of pants. These are not for wearing but for scaring off any hostile Celts.

If you wake up Monday morning after an event feeling chipper and ready for the day, you KR'd wrong.

If you are a good cook OOG, you are a great one IG.

Okay, I'm done.

Considering this was the first event you did not lose them in recent memory because of a change in how you stow them, perhaps...

"If Bill Hannings does not hand his keys to someone to store, they will find a way to go missing sunday at lay-off."


Incidentally.... someone said there should be a rule about me leading NPC groups or coaching them....
