Title: November Gaming Day at Dave's
Post by: dmcgee1 on October 04, 2008, 06:07:38 AM: I still have the Excelsior gaming tables. They demand sacrifice. Bring your figs and your dice, and we'll let loose the dogs of war upon them.

When: See poll (I will cement the date at the end of the poll, unless someone needs it nailed down, sooner)

Where: My place

Why: Because the tables demand it

Who: Anyone with a hankerin' to chuck dice and sling stories

What: Chronopia and Warzone (mayhaps poker at the end of the night depnding upon interest)

How: I don't care

Post by: dmcgee1 on October 04, 2008, 06:10:11 AM: If there is a date that works better for you due to work or family commitments, please, let me know. We may be able to get a concensus for those on the fence.

Post by: Alxbates on October 04, 2008, 06:29:48 AM: I'd like to talk at length about my deep and abiding love of ponies.

er, no - wait... um...

:D

Hope you all have fun at the event!

Post by: Gun-Moll on October 04, 2008, 11:03:29 AM: I could provide the so called ponies....but you'd have to come here in Reading. Shippping Bubba and Pappy is just not an option.

Post by: Petru5 on October 04, 2008, 08:00:31 PM: The drive time from western MO to PA is a killer...especially on my beloved pony!

I'd make better time if I could get on the...wait for it...Pony Expressway.

Title: Re: November Gaming Day at Dave's
Post by: MadBrad on October 05, 2008, 05:06:26 PM: Gah...

Once again, stuck in Denver with only a Pony Car...

Maybe I can find a Pinto and make the journey...on second though, that whole bursting into flames thing might be a bit over-reated!

So, guess I'll have to stay back here on the ranch. :(

You all have fun, and if I get a good annual bonus next year, I'll try and make a trip out.

Yep- he's a Philly Boy. You would have a 7 hour drive or so by car- 420 miles (erie to his house). If you can swing it, awesome.... there are hotels near the airport, which is maybe five to ten minutes from him.

Post by: Glenn M on October 06, 2008, 02:09:11 AM: Unfortunately, that's just not feasible for me.
Title: Re: November Gaming Day at Dave's
Post by: Drachen on October 06, 2008, 04:00:10 AM: Ponies? Is that what the Mounted Hussars ride? They're not as cute and cuddly as I'd imagined.

Hopefully it'll be a weekend I have off...I'm down in DE now with a new job and back to ole' night shift....and (obviously) just found out that they don't block the forums!

Post by: luckyone on October 06, 2008, 05:23:10 AM: I will check today and I plan on attending.
Title: Re: November Gaming Day at Dave's
Post by: joshuaslater on October 06, 2008, 08:04:56 AM: Y'all decide, and I'll make it. I'm not foreseeing any conflicts in November.
Title: Re: November Gaming Day at Dave's
Post by: dmcgee1 on October 06, 2008, 01:44:06 PM: I should add that the wife is mightily partial to the 15th, if that sways anyone on the fence. Unless there is overwhelming demand, the 15th is the preferable day. That said, please, continue to vote and to not let that be the end-all of whether you would be able to attend.

Well... 15th is Drill weekend for me. Which would hold true to the theme of conflicting engagements

So if its not the 22nd, I'm out. *Shrug*.
Title: Re: November Gaming Day at Dave's
Post by: luckyone on October 06, 2008, 06:24:56 PM: 22nd works for me. I cannot make it if it is on the 15th.
Title: Re: November Gaming Day at Dave's
Post by: aoi cobalt on October 07, 2008, 04:08:26 AM: I would have a chance making it on the 22, as it's connected to my Thanksgiving week vacation.
Not a chance on the 15th though.

Title: Re: November Gaming Day at Dave's
Post by: dmcgee1 on October 07, 2008, 06:14:00 AM: The wife has rethought the issue. She would like to see as many as possible make it. The 22nd looks like the clear favorite, so far. She's onboard with it! SHE ROCKS!
Title: Re: November Gaming Day at Dave's
Post by: luckyone on October 07, 2008, 08:40:39 AM: Gas to Dave's house on the 22nd - $16.00.
Food (Death Fries), drinks, cigars for a weekend of gaming - $45.00.
Rolling some d20's with the gang- priceless.

See you there!

She's been known to partake of Baccardi Limon rum. Mixed with a splash of Coca-Cola, it is her potent potable of choice.

Post by: joshuaslater on October 08, 2008, 10:13:01 AM: A world famous jungle board seeing active duty on a regular basis. It doesn't get much better than that in gaming.
