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

6/15/07

--Edmiao 09:18, 12 June 2007 (MST)absent, family in town.

--Gdaze 09:29, 13 June 2007 (MST) I will be absent as well, sorry but this weekend is very busy for me.

Jeremy just emailed me to say that he's out again this week as well. I'm still planning on running Gemini unless the rest of the players don't want to, in which case we can open it up for one shots, etc.

--Dieter the Bold 22:07, 13 June 2007 (MST) Definitely showing up at my own place.

Ranting and raving or other random comments

--Matts 08:53, 13 June 2007 (MST)So, I want to run SMitV then, but unfortunately in 3 weeks I'll be back in palo alto probably, and the week after Rina's parents are in town, so neither slot works well. I propose SMitV starting in 5 weeks, on the 13th, and running for 3 sessions to start with, until the 27th.

Congrats on your intertronz, ben!

--Gdaze 09:28, 13 June 2007 (MST) I would be more interested in at least doing a few CoC. I don't really care if it is a two season thing or just a one shot. Either is fine by me. A whole arc might be fun too. The space marine thing sounds pretty fun too.

Ben: In that case it should probably just run straight through, since the first two fridays of August I will be gone. If you don't want to run it straight through, then we need to shift the start time back to, say, either the 21st or the 27th (I'll double check when I leave, may be the 27th).

--Edmiao 09:31, 13 June 2007 (MST) CoH was a bust. Dave's graphics card was not up to par so his machine was running like a snail in molasses so we swithced back to DoW dark crusade. Dave's looking for an upgrade. I had thought that five players would be ok, as it is easier to modulate the difficulty on the game, but turns out that the teams are fixed, so 4 humans vs 4 computers is the max. at any rate, usually dave and/or brian is bailing by like 9, and ryan and i are often up for going until 11 so we could do some switch hitting. or do random other nights. Ryan is aways against PvP, mostly because he hates to hear us wine while he whips our asses.

I've just about finished my Lovecraft short story collection, thus my CoC interest. read the first 6 issues of league of extraordinary gentlemen, and it turns out to have a lovecraftian inspiration (there's a short story at the end where Quartermain goes up against creatures from Yuggoth).

you fuckers have wiki-blocked me twice in a row. thanks

--Jason 12:41, 13 June 2007 (MST)Sounds like the plan is you keep doing what youre doing for 5 weeks, then Matt runs SMiTV for 3 weeks, then back on your current game. Once that has gone on a while Ill find some time to do CoC. It gives me the time I need to get this Charlie stuff taken care of.

depending on what kind of stuff you find there, btw, and what prices you are planning on charging, I may be interested in buying some of it, so keep me informed.

--Jason 12:54, 13 June 2007 (MST)He has a little of everything it seems. Give me an idea what youre after and Ill let you know what I find.

--Edmiao 13:02, 13 June 2007 (MST) dare i say....micronauts

--Jason 13:40, 13 June 2007 (MST)Check on the Micronauts, Charlie has lots of stuff in that era. And Ben, Im interested in doing something Sunday.

Sounds good: we can board game, one shot, movie, or I'll come up with something else. I'll probably have to be at work for some portion of the day, but I'm thinking late afternoon/early evening for a get together.

--Dieter the Bold 22:08, 13 June 2007 (MST) So what are we doing this week? No Ed, Gabe or Jeremy. Can we actually run Gemini with only 2 players? I'm thinking not. Do we want to do some CoC again and invite Jason or just some boardgaming? I'm also down for some extra fun this weekend.

The Gemini GM (me) says he's tired of waiting and will run Gemini if the players want. If the players do not want, he (me) is happy to do anything else.

Other Random Comments unrelated to above random comments

Dune BITCHES!!!!!

So Im almost done reading Dune, and since you jokers are playing in a space game I thought you might be interested in the following activity. I have purchased the David Lynch version of Dune, and the Sci Fi Channel Dune and Children of Dune miniseries'. My plan is to have a megaDune marathon some weekend day. Skippy got a new super huge HD widescreen tv, and it would be perfect for this event. Anyone who wishes to attend is invited. If interested, let me know what day would work best. Also, I got the Dune boardgame (won it, hasnt arrived yet), so I have included quite possibly the bestestest board game review EVAR!!1 [1]

--67.183.132.220 23:51, 26 May 2007 (MST)My house is probably too messy but I am up for a Dune event if someone else can host. I know its weak, I kinda suck.

--Dieter the Bold 19:37, 30 May 2007 (MST) My dad leaves for Europe on Thursday June 07. So we're welcome to game at my place that Friday and the Friday afterwards (6/15). We're also welcome to watch Dune and BBQ here (if someone has a BBQ to bring) that weekend or the weekend after. I also own the big tin box David Lynch Dune and my dad owns the SciFi miniseries of Dune. Anyhoo, just thought I'd throw that out there. The only downside is that parking is a bit tight. It's an apartment complex with very little visitor parking and nothing really good close by. This could be worked out, though.
