Last Call Poker Guide

So, new today is an updated, swankified Muck page that is going to put me right out of business. I’m so redundant i’m redundant. There you can find pretty much everything I have here, only in a cooler format. *sigh* And what happened to the nifty Lucky maps?!

Anyways, the wonderful PMs who are making me oh-so redundant have also updated the front page with a new fancified movie. To get there, go to the Home Page and click on the giant gun (this will also drop you off at the muck).

In updates this week, we had a phone call, a 1-800 number to call and talk to a live person to save Matt Viet, a puzzle where we overlaid images to get a new character name, aaaand I’m sure I’m forgetting something. Oh right, Poker with Pancho.

There’s also a Tournament this evening for last week’s Winner’s Circle and this Saturday is a Live Event in New York City (which I’ll be attending - NEW YORK BITCHES!).

I’ll get the story updates taken care of ASAP, but I had a big qualifying exam for my PhD today (PASSED!) and I’ve had enough to drink that I’m getting sleepy.

Ok guys, the guide is once again up to date.

All of the 2005 characters can be found on Lucy’s Page

All of the 1914 characters can be found on the brand-spankin’ new Story of 1914 page.

As always, I’ve updated the character list and the “where’s the gun” timeline of possession with the new information.

The Live Graveyard Games in Kansas City pulled us further back in time and west in place, to Mexico, 1914 during World War 1 and Dios de los Muertes.

The site has a bit of an Ole! flair and I’m humming and singing “Ring of Fire” because I think that silly little trumpet line goes well with the setting. The pictures are hilarious, we have George Patton and Pancho Villa, and I swear upon all things holy, my avatar has the worst wig evar! (Seriously, the ones from 1929 were pretty bad, but this one?!? OMG! It’s so white it puts albinos to shame! It just screams “bad Halloween costume.” )

The poker chips have gone from art deco coolness, to uhm, I dunno. Patriotic glory? *sings “Ring of Fire” more* Much more of this reliving of American glory and I might turn Republican. Here’s me crossing my fingers for more tales of the dirty underbelly.

Here’s the list of characters and their updates for the day. The stories, as usual, will come when I am less tired (a.k.a. Tomorrow).

Cnet has written another article mentioning the efforts of 4orty2wo Entertainment while also outlining the online content revolving around the television show, Lost.

Mentions of 4orty2two, LCP and The Beast begin at the bottom of page 1.

UnFiction member JackBurt0n reports that IGN.com has begun streaming a trailer for Gun that leads to Last Call Poker. Though IGN.com requires Insider membership status to view the trailer, Burt0n gives the pertinent highlights.

The end of the trailer flashes words such as:
“What the son starts”
“The daughter will finish”
“Find her first”
“www.andadaughter.com“

The website given at the end redirects to LastCallPoker.com, giving us another solid link to the use of LCP for marketing Gun.

The location for Graveyard Games in Kansas City has been announced as the Historic Elmwood Cemetary (4900 Truman Road). Players should arrive at the gates around 1:30-2:00pm Central to meet up with Lucky’s liason.

Following the tournament, there will be a toast to those underground at Eastsiders Bar and Grill (7321 E Truman Rd).

As always, during the second half of the tournament, Lucky will have a mission for the Kansas City players that will require some help from those of us online (around12 noon, PDT).

Be there or be dead! Er.. wait…

This Saturday’s Live Graveyard Games took place at Historic Congressional Cemetary in Washington, D.C. Though rainy, players managed to do all the favors Lucky required and unlocked the LCP.com website to begin to reveal the story of the Navy Colt in 1929. Congrats to all who joined in at the Cemetary and online, and super-congrats to LouMac and Cortana, who won the Graveyard Poker tournament.

Once again, updates were abound on the site. I’m working on the 1929 Storyline and the current Lucy/2005 Storyline. Wait for a later post on those being completed. In the meantime, the Character List is updated and re-organized and the “Where’s the Gun?” page is also updated.
