CORPSE - The Carolina Otaku Role-Playing Society of Evil
CORPSE
The Carolina Otaku Role-Playing Society of Evil
The Carolina Otaku Role-Playing Society of Evil is dedicated to all forms
of gaming, including board games, card games (collectable or otherwise),
role-playing games, video games, and more. It is also dedicated to
Evil.
So, what sort of games do y'all play?
Settlers of Catan, Puerto Rico, Illuminati, Bang (Mancato!), Arkham
Horror, Munchkin, Ticket To Ride, Dungeons and Dragons, World of Darkness,
Champions, Cosmic Encounter, Carcassonne, Descent, Race for the Galaxy,
Chez Geek, Princes of Florence, H.O.L., Call of Cthulhu, Uno, Super Smash
Brothers, Soul Calibur, Hungry Hungry Hippos, I'm The Boss!, Zendo, and
anything else we can get our hands on.
Game Night
CORPSE gets together in room 3501 of the new Student Union every Saturday
night from 7pm (well...theoretically; folks usually drift in around
then, but occasionally won't show up until 7:30 or later; if you walk in
and no one's around, sit tight and gamers will arrive in short order)
until the wee hours of the morning to play games. On the off-chance
someone is using room 3501, we can be found in several back-up locations,
generally either the Cabaret lounge area in the basement of the Student
Union or the ground floors of either Murphy Hall or Bingham Hall. Here is a map to 3501 Student Union, here is a
detail map, and you can find
driving directions
here.
The Mailing List
CORPSE maintains a mailing list where players
can organize, inquire about, or browbeat someone into running a
role-playing campaign, demand an Emergency Game Night session when
Saturday night is just too far away, and chat about games or anything
else that comes to mind. Go
here to subscribe to the CORPSE mailing list. Traffic is generally
rather low, so no need to worry about your mailbox being hammered with
CORPSE messages.
The Guild
CORPSE maintains a guild at Board Game Geek. Among other
things, the guild page allows you to view the profiles of other CORPSE
members and see what games they own, so you can request that certain games
make an appearance at Game Night. Check it out!
History
CORPSE was founded in early 2002 as a spin-off of the Carolina Otaku Uprising (thus the goofy
name in service of a goofier acronym). Folks who liked to get together
and watch Japanese cartoons also liked to get together and play games,
generating enough interest on the COUP mailing list to inspire the
creation of a seperate organization dedicated to gaming. Since that time,
the phrase "game night" has become synonymous with pure, unadulturated
Evil.
Constitution
Here is the club constitution, such as it is,
in Microsoft Word format.
Cerebral Hobbies, R.I.P. Thanks for everything, Steve!
'Nuff said - it's time to game!
