Well it had been quite a journey. I'd like to write more but it has been hard work this month.<br />
<br />
We have come a long way since starting back in 2011 with this [<a href="http://technomancerssojourn.blogspot.com.au/2011/11/lan-2-lan-harder.html">blog</a>]. Seen many people come and go, played a lot of league of Legends. Became an official incorperated association then let it lapse for lack of boardmembers. Now it is time to hand over the reigns to a younger crowd. Not sure who as yet. There are several other groups like this in town, but we never quite organised the big event that everybody thought would be a great idea.<br />
I have had quite a bit of fun exercising my creative writing skills here and coming up with a new theme each fortnight or so. I also really enjoyed streamiling the logistics of our events as can be seen in [<a href="http://technomancerssojourn.blogspot.com.au/2016/06/sojourn95-airforce-windows.html">95</a>]. Always trying to ensure there is one game people can all play together, though its also OK if you turn up for a chat and to help with Install Wars.<br />

Ten years ago I was playing online games at university, LOL was probably not a thing? I was doing a research project of fish brains, had an old car and not even considered buying a house.<br />
Ten years from now? Still playing games online, probably some sort of augmented reality Bass battle against Goku like in "Scott Pilgrim Vs the World". Maybe I'll be teaching my kids how to build their own PC. Perhaps I'll be managing the local distillery, travelling overseas or a fully fledged Lutheran Pastor. I'm pretty sure only one of the games below will survive the time travel.<br />
<br />
UPDATE:<br />
Probably going to join the Bowes Clan at [<a href="https://www.facebook.com/beach365/">Beach 365</a>] for a closer look at the [<a href="http://store.steampowered.com/app/358040/">Vive</a>] system from 6 till seven, you also need to book in advance.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<b>WHEN:</b> August 9th, 1900-2400<br />
<br />
<b>WHERE:</b> Wind room<br />
<br />
<b>WHAT:</b> LOL, Boarderlands, Rocket League, Lego, Artemis<br />
<br />
<b>WHAT TO BRING:</b> Arrange food and drink here
<br />
<br />
<b>WHO:</b> Who's expected to be coming? Who is coming late? Who is leaving early? Who doesn't have a computer?

This is a worthwhile theme to pursue. My little space sister will sidle into town soon. Mainly to see other people, but a sojourn set in space is now scheduled for our ninety sixth. I've sequestered a second spare PC, which may not be enough for a full Artemis HUD, but is sufficiently setup for an engineer or scientist. I've also two surplus monitors to loan at this time.<br />
<br /><br />
I'm Nominating Josh as El Capitan, otherwise he will likely mutiny and go rouge if we take to long to delegate roles. I'll forfeit my chair to play the Janitor until everybooty knows the score. But I may stay on as Chief, Cook and Bottle washer.<br />
<br /><br />
We will keep a few things in the Hold, for use in stormy weather:<br />
Frozen Throne; might help to set the scene and initiate the newbs. <br />
Rocket League; really needs a trial run with two Xbox, Dan/Michelle/Tony to facilitate.<br />
LOL; for late at night after all the rum has gone.<br />
<br /><br />
If you know any other Sisters willing to try their hand at sailing in space we're encouraging them to jump on board. It's easy enough to pickup an oar and Josh, Ben, Nicole, James can shoulder some of the burden for you.<br />
<br /><br />
Incidentally if you want to try out a real ship for a month or two years have a look at <a href="http://www.mercyships.org.au/">http://www.mercyships.org.au/</a> The longer you stay the cheaper the rent, it seems like they will take almost anybody: bottle washer, heart surgeon, nurse, store clerk, chaplain, perhaps even a Nun, I'm sure there is a void for two. I have a couple of Ex-pat contacts if you want more details or there was apparently a bit of a docco last night on channel seven.<br />

<br />
<strong>WHEN:</strong> 14/7/16 From 1600 till 2400<br />
<br />
<strong>WHERE:</strong> Wind Room - bring a scarf<br />
<br />
<strong>WHAT:</strong> Mainly Artemis [<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Artemis:_Spaceship_Bridge_Simulator">Spaceship Simulator</a>]<br />

So plan B is to spend all day sitting inside.</span><br />
<span style="color: black; font-family: "Calibri","sans-serif"; font-size: 12pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-AU; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: EN-AU;"><br /></span><br />

Otherwise Raskal and VRBones will be at the Elliot, battling with the Elements.</span><br />
<span style="color: black; font-family: "Calibri","sans-serif"; font-size: 12pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-AU; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: EN-AU;">Therefore the focus will be Dusk till Dawn, Instruments only night flight. Also in commemoration of our 95th official event and because winter is coming, I've prepared the Frozen Throne. Fit for Carnac's Maul and Elemental TD. Though we do have ~2GB of scenarios to chose from. Our other 95 game will be the old Killing floor, we have a "copy" but I believe everypeon actually owns this game now.</span><br />
<span style="color: black; font-family: "Calibri","sans-serif"; font-size: 12pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-AU; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: EN-AU;"><br /></span><br />

Failing that the old staple of League of Legends, there will be some type of weekend event that we can run through.</span><br />
<span style="color: black; font-family: "Calibri","sans-serif"; font-size: 12pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-AU; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: EN-AU;"><br /></span><br />

Parents will be home so it'll need to be somewhat civilised but we can use either the dining room or lounge room for PCs and the other for boardgames (both airconditioned) depending on how many people can be bothered to lug their desktops over.<br />
<br />
<strong>WHEN:</strong> Saturday 2nd of Jan . ~10am to Late<br />
<br />
<strong>WHERE:</strong> Sam's parent's place. Ask on Facebook page for exact address<br />
<br />
<strong>WHAT:</strong> For PC I don't have anything planned in particular so lets say Farming Simulator 2013. For board games I've got Cash n' Guns, Munchkin, Nuclear War, Worm Up plus whatever everyone else brings.<br />
<br />
<strong>WHAT TO BRING:</strong> I'll try to source a bunch of snausages and bread for a sausage sizzle. Maybe parents will arrange a BBQ dinner otherwise it'll be snausages again. Everyone else grab some softdrink bottles and snacks and we'll see how we go<br />
<br />
<strong>WHO:</strong> Sam will be there with some amount of family. Feel free to pop in and out during the day if you have other committments.<br />

I can never recall which one is which and end up just guessing the fruits of the spirit. We had an RPG growing up where your weapons were the fruits of the spirit, the banana flew the fastest and furthest.<br />
Ben is on holiday in town from the 12th to the 16th, so this is the only Sojourn scheduled for the wind room in December. More than likely the only Sojourn in December actually. Unless there are a heap of out-of-towners.<br />
<br />
Seems most people have recently acquired "Rocket League" So I'll put that on the cards along with LOL as the main event. You should make certain that both these games are patched and running. Other than that my recent hobby horse has been Rocksmith, but while interesting not really suited to a Sojourn. Depending on who arrives I wouldn't mind practicing job hunting and going old school with Frozen Throne.<br />
<br />
Also have a look at AoE II HD: As a lead in to the new years sojourn, along with SimFarm.....<br />
<br />
<strong>WHEN:</strong> Sunday 13th December, after church till 12:30<br />

<strong>WHERE:</strong> Wind Room<br />

I don't have any regular attendee's atm. Maybe we should all switch to Tricking? David warner got in the paper for that club, Though I thought it was just a group of mates. Or maybe we should have kept the Facebook page open to the public, would have got a few more random people then.<br />
<br />
Anywho, the Gold Mine...<br />
On the 31st I'm thinking of heading up to Nangandie (near where VRBones came from) to try my luck at gold panning, or at least have a nice walk in the bush near where gold has recently been found.<br />
<br />
In preparation for this I was thinking of a Church-Sojourn, seems a few of our youth still play a lot of Minecraft.<br />

Not 100% sure this will go ahead, Last time I organised a trip here every day less people could tag along. It should be a little warm, at the MtWalsh campground there are BBQ's<br />
If its just me then I'll probably eat only oranges and muslii bars and go skinny dipping at Utopia road rockpools. Otherwise Backgammon, Trekking, Red Wine and Bridge are on the cards.<br />

So I probably should do one a month out to let youse all organise your lives around it. But this time you only get a few days notice.<br />
We have a service Sunday church event on the 13th which means I may sleep in till lunchtime. so Sat evening seems like a the best idea to me.<br />
<br />
Since everybody is an individual it takes a while to notify people eg..<br />
Kyle likes the Steam events and contacting him there is reliable. but only if the weather is cool.<br />
Cam and Bryden both really need verbal notices and often already have plans.<br />
Josh is easy to contact but has very busy afternoons so the weekend works best<br />
Tony has lots of free time but would rather be at the beach is the sun is up.<br />
Ben rarely has a Friday eve free and prefers weeknights, easy to contact though.<br />
Duncan rarely comes if his kids are around.<br />
Scotty always joins in if he is in town and we are having it at the beach.<br />
Eddie has to check his roster each week and works nights a lot.<br />
Alex prefers school nights but cannot stay too late.<br />
<br />
<b>WHEN:</b> 12 September evening<br />
<br />
<b>WHERE:</b> Ben's Place<br />
<br />
<b>WHAT:</b> Artemis, Pathfinder, League of Legends, Fun-Employed<br />
<br />
<b>WHAT TO BRING:</b> Arrange food and drink here
<br />
<br />
<b>WHO:</b> Who's expected to be coming? Who is coming late? Who is leaving early? Who doesn't have a computer?

There is half a tree in the backyard also, so lets try something a little different again.<br />
<br />
Last fortnight we played fun-employed went wine tasting and chillaxed to some jass beats out of town. This weekend the plan is to start off with a Walker style Sojourn for friday eve, sliding over into Saturday. Subsequently sleep in then bacon it up in the backyard with cards campfire, do y'think that sounds delightfull? Eventually finishing early afternoon so I can sleep a bit before the Holy day.<br />
<br />
If need be, the spare rooms can be clensed and purified, swags rolled out and blankets distributed to the homeless. Just give us the 10:4 before you knock on the door, I cant have everybody walk the dinosaur.<br />
<br />
<b>WHEN:</b> Friday 5pm till Saturday 5pm<br />
<br />
<b>WHERE:</b> Ben's Place <br />
<br />
<b>WHAT:</b> Artemis, LoL, KillingFloor, followed by Fun-Employed, betrayal at house on the hill, First the Worst.<br />
<br />
<b>WHAT TO BRING:</b> Integrity, sence of humor, potions of Darkvision, Bacon offering for the woodsmoke or something equivalent to the value of 50 Shekels.<br />
<br />
<b>WHO:</b> Who's expected to be coming? Who is coming late? Who is leaving early? Who doesn't have a computer?

this a go I’d like to try teamwork to unlock new map areas, possibly the

extraction/ defence mission. But the fun part though is: being a space ninja
power ranger, running up walls and getting stealth kills. I was the yellow
ranger two years ago when we were in the Warframe beta test (closed beta I
think?) but have now switched to a Porygon color scheme, to hurt them in their
eyes. Orange didn’t work so well so I couldn’t be a neon Genin, like Naruto. If you want to join a guild I'm in Orcis [<a href="https://steamcommunity.com/groups/WarframeOrcisClan">steamlink</a>][<a href="http://warframeorcisclan.wix.com/home">WIX homepage</a>]</span></span></div>

At 5:37 it will begin its ascent on the sky, purported to reach its crescendo at eleven. At which point I've planed to take a sabbatical and journey to the outside world for a gander. The rest of the eve we will be worshiping the fluorescent lights and observing the triangulation of our pixel trifecta.<br />
<br />
Though the preferential alternative was to spend a day with the absence of watered ablutions then retire under a chandelier of stars, but this was not to be. Organising oneself is not so challenging but as a communal expedition it has not come to pass.<br />
<br />
Dependant on who it is that replies and confirms their attendance, our schedule for the evening includes: Diablo2, the old one that I've never actually played. Copies should be available for transferral on the night. League of Legends, the old favourite that can easily consume an evening on its own. Warframe, was once on the cards, two years ago I believe, and it is worth another look. Pleas resurrect your old accounts and be patched up and ready to run on the night. For some good old power ranger space ninja FPS action. Then a small break is also scheduled because of [<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/April_2015_lunar_eclipse">this</a>].<br />
<br />
<strong>WHEN:</strong> Saturday 4th April<br />
<br />
<strong>WHERE:</strong> Residence of Ben<br />
<br />
<strong>WHAT:</strong> Diablo2, LoL, Warframe<br />
<br />
<strong>WHAT TO BRING:</strong><br />
Please bring some beverages and other consumables to share,<br />
PC (2 old unreliable backup spares onsite)<br />
Ethernet cable (optionally an extra switch)<br />
Powerboard (probably not needed, but be prepared)<br />
Sunny disposition <br />
<br />
<strong>WHO:</strong> Who's expected to be coming? Who is coming late? Who is leaving early? Who doesn't have a computer?

So instead it is day-D.<br />
<br />
D is for<br />
Don't Starve<br />
Dino Beatdown: Orion's Hoard<br />
Divine Cybermancy<br />
Dino D-Day<br />
Depth<br />
<br />
I don't think Don't Starve will last a long time, alternatively its a really long game. Punching T-Rex can be fun for a few 20min rounds and is now just $0.99. The divine cybermancy got a workout when Levi was present and I've a competent healer now as well as furiously fast frog. More dinosaurs, couldn't leave this one out, possibly only played once previously when Sam was in town. Finally Depth the dodge counterstrike mod with sharks that I thought was going to play like Hydrophobia Prophesy but disappointingly doesn't.<br />
<br />
Also note that I'll be a church a little later than normal on account of our AGM and being responsible and stuff. Text/ring for more details as I may leave my place unlocked i.e. for baby sitting during the AGM. Lego's in the sunroom.<br />

<strong>WHEN:</strong> Sunday 22nd after service<br />

<br />

<br />
<strong>WHAT TO BRING:</strong> Arrange food and drink here
<br />
<br />
<strong>WHO:</strong> Who's expected to be coming? Who is coming late? Who is leaving early? Who doesn't have a computer?

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"> On account of a scheduled fortnightly
Vampire the Requiem, scheduled for Sunday evenings, sojourns for Lent will also
take place Sunday evening on alternating weeks. Out of the ordinarily Levi will
also be physically here this weekend. By then Levi and I should both have a
DX11 compatible graphics cards working again, but I don’t think there are that
many intensive games. I can’t recall the last time I felt the need to turn off
shadows or shading. Possibly in Dark Souls, but that’s mainly because it was a
buggy PC port.<o:p></o:p></span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"><br />I’ve had a decent bash at Don’t Starve
now, it’s similar to Terraria in that you quickly have to build resources to
make your lifestyle sustainable and the most fun thing is discovering how the
game works and how to use all these things. So another session on it will
progress faster but be less fun. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"><br />Recently played a couple of Frozen
Throne mods, wow League of Legends has come a long way since grass roots.
Almost every match feels like an ARAM but the game modes change as well. Quite
happy to go back to LoL where I have a vague notion of what items I want to get
and which shop to find them in.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

session in this. Partially because Levi is in town but I like the game still.
It has plot, and is a 32 player co-op FPS RPG dungeon crawl hack and slash. But
I’m only game if we can put a few hours into it as I’ve done the first missions
several times now. I suppose we could run the scenarios a few times?<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

played over Christmas. I’m keen for another session as well and can setup the
TV as our main screen. I still have a couple of gift able copies as well as the
client files if anybody is keen on hosting their own game.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

about this week, free to play on steam in which you use circles to make
triangles that swarm circles so that you can make more triangles. When such a
simple concept is fun I can understand why graphics card development cycles have
slowed.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

My plan is to visit the beach, BBQ some snags and spend all day playing enemy at the gates and don't starve alone. Though I may have a little foray into town to help with the ROTARACT fundraising BBQ for the council at the botanical gardens. Also my spare graphics card does not run DX11, so I may be a little limited for choice.<br />
<br />
Is it three years ago now that it was raining and Sam was intending to drive down from Rocky but couldn't get here because the roads started to flood?<br />
