Revision as of 11:28, 13 July 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.

Attendance and Food Preference

7/18/08 - Guttersnipes!

--Brandon 10:34, 8 July 2008 (MST) Check out my thoughts about the basic concept of the Shadowrun one-shot at: Guttersnipes!.

--Brandon 17:12, 10 July 2008 (MST) I think that Dieter should play Max and Kim should play Rad, so Dieter=Max, Ben=Togo, and Kim=Rad. Everyone happy with that? I'm totally going to be making characters on the plane to Chi-town tomorrow!

--Edmiao 10:53, 12 July 2008 (MST) I am most likely going to bail on you guys. might show up for magic if you are still playing from 6-8.

Ranting and raving or other random comments

--Edmiao 19:07, 12 July 2008 (MST) A bit o the bad news. Cheryl was diagnosed with breast cancer last week. She has to get a mastectomy, but then has a 98% cure rate. If the pathology turns out like the biopsies did, then she will not need radiation or chemo. I'll be a bit leaving early so (as to be more awake on saturdays) and sometimes absent in the forsee-able future. I had enough of talking about it so didn't mention it last night, but that probably contributed to my lack of attention at points. It sucks, but at least it was caught sort of early, or at least not too late. Could be worse, she could be gabe's mom.

--Gdaze 23:25, 12 July 2008 (MST) Holy shit dude, well that sounds bad but then agian that cure rate is looking promising. I'm hoping she pulls through okay! And yeah, my mom is so dirty, the dirt will never come off.

BEN: I'm sorry ed. I know it doesn't really help, but if there is anything at all kim or I can do for you guys, let us know.

Other RPG or Non-RPG gaming Events

Monthly Board Gaming Day

Dark Knight I've just purchased tickets for myself and kim for SATURDAY, JULY 19th at 9 PM at the seattle IMAX. Anyone else who wants to come see THE superhero movie with us on THE big screen, feel free.

KIM: My friends are NOT coming up from Portland, therefore we now have two spare pre-paid tickets to IMAX... who wants them?

--Edmiao 15:57, 9 July 2008 (MST)trying to convince cheryl to do this still. she shies away from the opening weekend crowd thing. but working on it....

BEN: it's at imax, where there is always a sold out show, really, but the seating is such that this isn't really a problem. Kim and I may actually have two extra tickets if two of our friends don't show (which is likely).

--Brandon 17:43, 9 July 2008 (MST) Kate and I are interested! Ed, let us know if you and Cheryl are in, so we know whether or not we should buy tickets.

--Edmiao 08:19, 10 July 2008 (MST) we're still a probably not, so those tix are yours. enjoy!

JASON: I got tickets for the midnight opening at the Cinerama. I am also considering hitting the IMAX with you guys.

--Brandon 23:25, 7 July 2008 (MST) Ben, sorry that I didn't come by; time got away from me and it was past 9:30 before I knew it. I'd like to come by at some point this week to pick up the Shadowrun book. Let me know a good day/time to come by, and if some faeries get into a fight with some elves while I'm there, so be it. I'm getting kind of excited about the prospect of running a one-shot, so I should have the book around.

JASON: The Tukwila Half Price Books has a ton of books for Shadowrun, both editions.

JASON: Also, I will be having a massive shindig for mine and Rumi's birthdays on either August 30th or 31st. I would like to see as many of you jokers as possible attend. Mark it on your calendar. I am planning on renting a venue so we have plenty of space for games, Rock Band, and partying. Does anyone know of a centrally located, reasonably priced, venue?

GABE: I'd like to come, I'm trying to be more social. A central and big location for partying thats cheap? *insert your mom comment*

KIM: Oooh, I'll be back in town then, might have a job that weekend, but will try to keep it during reasonable hours so that I can show up and commandeer the potato chip bowl... *nom nom nom*

Weekly Magic Whining/Complaining/Smack Talking

The Next Step in Werewolf

Werewolf Recap

Next step in Super Heroes

--Edmiao 08:50, 1 July 2008 (MST)so what did i miss?

BEN: we battled the juice for a bank and the juice's reputation, then we battled silver skinned dudes for hostages at the museum of natural history, then we battled a giant demon for hot girls about to be sacrificed to an artifact, then we battled Cortez, who possessed Brim and sent ancient Aztec spirits to kick our asses and flew off in a giant steampunk ship in Brim's body. You know, the usual.

GABE: We were a little busy that day.

--Brandon 16:52, 2 July 2008 (MST) Don't forget that we became acquainted with a mysterious individual who seems to be able to (1) call you wherever you are and (2) possess an entire platoon of Roombas. Be afraid, be very afraid.

--Dieter the Bold 18:27, 2 July 2008 (MST) Especially considering who makes the Roomba

--Gdaze 20:02, 2 July 2008 (MST) Gawd help us!

--Gdaze 00:19, 7 July 2008 (MST) Are we gonna run supers that week everyone is gone, or rather are you Matt? I mean Dieter is only KINDA playing, it leaves only me and Ed for most of it.

--Edmiao 08:39, 7 July 2008 (MST)did deiters computer dude get into the story last time? this next session could be a deiter-centric prequil to introduce the character

Ben: Matt is gone until the 25th of July, so when is the next session of supers scheduled?

--Gdaze -- I was guessing August 1st?

MATT: August 1, yes. We'll run supers. Brandon not being there works out well for the particular story, and Ben not being there just means there will be some close shaves! We can certainly work in a Teletraan-7 prequel if desired.

--Dieter the Bold 16:33, 7 July 2008 (MST) Not so interested in a prequel for Teletraan-7. If people would like to establish something I'm fine with simply talking it out and saying "This is now so".

--Brandon 17:51, 7 July 2008 (MST) Also, Ed, I should've been more clear that the mysterious, Roomba possessor mentioned above was, in fact, Teletraan-7, so he's been introduced, albeit mysteriously.

--Edmiao 18:15, 7 July 2008 (MST) ahh! bueno. what is a roomba?

--Matts 08:50, 8 July 2008 (MST)IRobot Website
