Short version: Con game. GM is late due to running a demo. Had not prepped ANYTHING. We meandered for a while. Then spent 30 minutes being introduced to the party from his home game. Then capped it off with a random puzzle that did not fit the genre at all. Exhaustingly frustrating.

I had a character die that way once. Best character death of my life.

Uber is a great invention like the cotton gin. The idea is good, but it also enables some really shitty business practices.
