November Gaming Day at Dave's
« 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
If sing, sang, and sung, sink, sank, and sunk, and drink, drank, and drunk, how is it that it isn't bring, brang, and brung, think, thank and thunk, and ding, dang, and dung?

Don't even get me started about bad, badder and baddest.  Run, ran AND run...again?  C'mon!

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.

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.

I've been to Illinois - you lie (so says Thom).

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.

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.

Unfortunately, that's just not feasible for me.

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!

Y'all decide, and I'll make it.  I'm not foreseeing any conflicts in November.

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.
