Our Next Session - The Birthday Marathon

When:  Sat. 12/18
Where:  Jay's Place
Start Time:  4PM or ?????

As many of us discussed this past weekend, we appear to be set to play our next game on Sat. 12/18.  In honor of Jay's birthday, Barb as graciously agreed to allow us to start at 4PM or even earlier if possible.

To help get a proper head count, could everyone respond in the comments thread to confirm attendance and let us all know just how early you could join us (e.g., before 4PM)?  We can then make an informed decision about exactly when to get the game rolling.

Thanks for a very entertaining evening, everyone.  It had been too long!

I didn't realize until I saw this post that you're located in Rochester. We're practically neighbors. ;)

I can be there. Assuming that Carl's campaign winds up, I'll be ready to go with Andronia assuming everyone is amenable.

Riley said...

Also, I'd be happy to start as early as Jay wants. Just let me know so I can take off early enough.

It is looking like 4PM will be my earliest start time. I was hoping for earlier, but obligations are already starting to mount. Obviously I can join during play if others can make an earlier start time.


@Christopher B - I didn't realize how close we were either! Love the Rust Monster blog...

I can be there. Any time works well for me.

Riley said...

Carl, I'll give you a call and let you know when I'll show up, but I'll try and get there by 3p at the latest. Can't wait.

I'm guessing you all already know, but I'll be there. Wait. It's at my house. . . . Yeah, I'll be there.

Really looking forward to this!

Riley said...

What all should we bring, Jay?

Batman 1970 said...

Howdy y'all,

Barb said she would provide Chex mix, some dill crackers I tend to like, a brie cheese with pine nuts and bread coins thing I like and some other snack type of stuff. We figured we'd also order a pizza. I'm a pepperoni, mushrooms and onion kind of guy, but if you have something else you like (or hate), please let us know -- no one goes hungry on the 18th!

You all know I don't drink alcohol or caffeine, so if you want that sort of stuff, BYOB. Otherwise, it's pretty much the same as usual. We probably won't have much in the way of sweets, so if you would like something in that variety, it would be good to bring it. If anyone was considering cake, I prefer the ice cream variety -- But it's NOT NECESSARY! Lord knows, I have enough other fattening stuff for this gathering!

I'm really looking forward to it! I can't wait to finish up with the grinding gear -- I think we might even have a chance to escape alive. I mean most of the party -- I believe I've already had Batman bin Suparman's death warrant signed and delivered. Now all I have to do is wait for that final trap to do its worst. I only hope I die with glory, not ignominy.

I'm a pretty traditional pepperoni man myself, but pizza's pizza.

Julia said...

I'll be there. Are we doing 3pm? I'll talk to Barb about what I'll bring (nice to have an inside connection...). And my tastes align with traditional pepperoni, also. I'm used to picking off what I don't fancy.

Can't wait!

Riley said...

I don't think Matt H. can show up before 4, and I might not be there till then either since I'm driving in that day. Anything you want for your birthday, Jay?

Batman 1970 said...

Since you're asking -- STACKS OF CASH! Preferably in small-ish bills, non-sequential numbering, etc. Other than that, the only thing of value I'm looking for is the ability not to die for an evening. For me, that's NEARLY unprecedented!

Thank you for asking, but honestly, I'm just thrilled that all of you can come, and that Barb is kind enough to subject herself to all of us once again!

It's looking like 4:00 is going to be the official start time.

I can't wait to see all of you!

Riley said...

Definitely thank Barb for all of us because it's quite a treat.

post festum said...

I'll take care of the cake - I can't promise a full ice-cream cake, since I might not be able to get the impaled bat character I am doodling up set in icing in time. But, we'll see. :)

My thanks to Barb as well.

Can you make it at 4PM, Paul? Or at all?

Julia said...

I'll be bringing some kind of cookie. Any preferences, other than traditional chocolate chip?

Calysta said...

Have fun and a happy birthday to you, Jay.

Batman 1970 said...

Thank you Calysta!

Saturday is looking good at 4PM!
