Owlbear and Wizards Staff Con 2026
I really can’t believe it’s a year since OBaWS 2025, that event is still fresh in my mind.

In the latest episode of my appliances choosing convention weekends to cause issues, the mysterious smell when we got home from OBaWS has been dealt with via a full cleaning of the fridge, inside, outside and underneath. An upsetting experience for all concerned.

Lastly #OBAWS Cypher System climbers were rescued, all joined troop 33 & a lahar (a fast-moving, destructive mix of water, volcanic ash, & rock debris surging down the slopes of a volcano) was escaped. Sterling efforts by @orlanth.bsky.social Thomas, Hannah, Chris & Jimbo in First Responders.

Big thanks to @davepaters.bsky.social Angus @cottonmouthmcr.bsky.social @filmfan68.bsky.social and Darran for coming up with a rescue plan that J R Sebastian would have been proud of in Blade Runner Replicant Rebellion. Action and comedy in equal measure. #OBAWS

Weird feeling after #OBAWS it feels like I did too much and didn't do enough
FOMO of missing out on Saturday evening & Sunday morning, but it felt like my brain got a bit squished with running 3 games in 2 days
Decompressed and recovered with a stellar @thetweedmeister.bsky.social Trail game

On the final short bit of my journey back from OBaWS. Tired, social reserves empty but happy.
And now, I've got to go make nice at a family get together when all I want is a bit of peace and a cuddle with H+M.
Boo!

Had a lovely afternoon with the Grogs! Early night now in preparation for all day gaming tomorrow. Too many people to tag and too many people that I didn't spend enough time chatting with, but hopefully I can remediate that over the weekend #OBaWS

Ahoy OBaWS & Tabletop Scotland attendees! Circumstances dictate that I'm not at either event so please post lots of pictures so I can at least see what's going on.
Cheers! 😊

Don't remind me! Between OBaWS, Tabletop Scotland and various US events I'm having a very lonely weekend plus my sister's under the weather today so can't fetch me any shopping and I'm running out of some things 🙄
I'll join the Mitchester IF I'm still awake - things have changed since my 1am days!

Thanks Jim. I only ran Bearcats the once after doing a load of prep for it! I created the map by printing it onto six A4 cardboard sheets, then laminated and stuck them together. I'd be happy to pass it all over to you at OBaWS this weekend as I'm not likely to run it again, would save you some time

Huzzah - everything printed I think for OBaWS - only B&W because colour printer is playing up and needs a clean. But I can relax and think about untimely deaths for the players - there could be some amazing ones!!
