Revision as of 11:26, 23 June 2008

This page is for discussion of stuff related to the game coming up this week, no matter when that actually is. For instance, we can all assume Nate isnt coming for some lame reason and that Ed is sick of pizza and is bringing teriyaki or some other crap. They can post something here if that happens to be untrue.

--Matts 10:26, 23 June 2008 (MST)Brandon, am I reading this page right and you'll be at game on Friday?

Ranting and raving or other random comments

--Dieter the Bold 13:02, 16 June 2008 (MST) Gentlemen, and lady: It's finally dawned on me that in 3 weeks it will be the 4th of July. On a Friday, no less. I think, given the date, we should be a little more proactive in determining our whereabouts. I already see Ed has declared himself busy. Is anyone else planning on crazy BBQs, late night fireworks, etc., etc.? If so, speak soon, because for those who plan on attending gaming, I'd like to put out the idea of doing a Patriot Themed One-shot or series of One-shots. Are we your average Joes caught up in a time-warp, leading us to fight in our countries greatest battles? Are the Brood invading and we must use our amazing super powers to defend Earth? Or have we accepted a race for charity with people making donations to the hero that can traverse the world the fastest (but some of our arch-nemesis have other plans?)? Regardless, as the 4th is a federally recognized holiday, and we therefore get the opportunity to take off work, I vote we have a gaming day + BBQ, and then leave the night open for more gaming or for fireworks or whatever. I look forward to your responses.

KIM: I too vote for festivities, and will bake cherry pies or other such traditional yums on request (and if you say please). BBQ is good, if heroes, count me as present, if one-shots are to be had instead, I might have a couple friends over for boardgames in the other half of the communal area. Also, isn't the other side of midnight Matt's bday?

--Matts 16:17, 16 June 2008 (MST)I'm not sure if I'm in town or not yet. I may be off having a cabin adventure. Regardless, sometime in proximity we'll party for my big day. It's only once a decade that the digits in your age add up to 10!

--Edmiao 16:40, 16 June 2008 (MST) damn, sound like fun. parents in town. so no me.

--Dieter the Bold 20:01, 19 June 2008 (MST) I hearby make the official motion to cancel gaming on July the 4th. I introduce a second motion that we hold a BBQ, movie, boardgaming day in its place. Movies to be of the classic patriotic kind. Patton, comes to mind.

JASON: If this materializes I would like to say I am 66% on attending, as well as bringing along a sidekick, some board games and possibly even some patriotic movies.

GABE: Dude, the Patriot! Nothing is better then spearing a British officer with the American flag! What is your sidekick's power or powers?

JASON: She has the power to speak Japanese and use Photoshop CS on the mac. Dont be a hater, thems some serious powers yo.

GABE: Man..., I can barely speak English and have the ability to burp after eatting even the most least gasiest of foods. My powers blow.

KIM: I'm a fan of the boardgame-bbq... may be inviting some vanilla friends to play teh scrabblez wit me, unless ya'll are down with the Kung-fu Munchkin.

JASON: Teh Scrabblez? D00d, wiik. At the very least we should play Cranium. Ill bring it. Thats a rad party game.

KIM: ooooooooooooooooooooh, CRANIUM. There's gotta be a way to make it a drinking game, no?

GABE: Man, Matt, The Authority is an awesome comic. Are these two books all there is?

--Matts 10:22, 23 June 2008 (MST)There's a ton of offshoots, like Jenny Sparks Secret History of the Authority, and I'm pretty sure there's tons of shit with Jack Hawksmoor and the Midnighter and the old Stormwatch gang, but I'm not sure how much of it is written by Warren Ellis, who did those first two books.

Other RPG or Non-RPG gaming Events

Monthly Board Gaming Day

--Gdaze 22:56, 19 June 2008 (MST) I just got two sets of the new jungle set for Heroscape, it makes the board look AWESOME. And yes, I am actually going to play it too.

--Edmiao 08:48, 20 June 2008 (MST) i'll believe that when i see it.

Weekly Magic Whining/Complaining/Smack Talking

BEN: Got a nice set of lorwyn, morningtide, and shadowmoor. Probably 600 commons/uncommons, 2 planeswalkers (red and white, at the low price of $3ea), and 14 other rares. Should have probably gotten a few more rares, but my haggling skills suck and I was trying to be nice (paid $1 per rare). Anyways, I didn't edit the commons/uncommons, but for the rares, I didn't get anything for control decks cause I hate them, and I didn't get anything for the elf deck, cause he had some gross rares for that deck. But I did get a bunch of elemental rares so we can finally have an elemental deck or two (including another horde of notions, 3 smokebraiders, and 4+ flamewalker invokers!)

KIM: I reckon this feat deserves a "w00t".

--Edmiao 13:52, 22 June 2008 (MST)woot. i remade my green red deck. might need a few artifacts to finish it out, but mostly good to go.
