Current events

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

Edmiao I'll be doing pickup duty. Deiter, it would be nice if you could get to montlake or the U district, or somewhere closer than the amazon building. i'll be headed from my work near gasworks park, through the U district to pick up brandon and friend, then down to montlake and over the water. One note, i don't want to be staying to the wee hours, would be good if we could wrap it up by like 1 am, since i'm your return trip home i can't just ditch early.

--Gdaze 09:23, 23 June 2009 (MST) Here is a note for anyone who might care about it. The 255 goes very close to my house, you'd still have to walk a good 20 mins or so, but it is there. I'll see if I can't get my license renewed before Friday and then I can take some people home as well (Dieter I'm guessing since it is kinda opposite from you Ed).

--Brandon 11:04, 23 June 2009 (MST) Don't worry Ed, I'm not planning on going too late. I'm aiming to be done by midnight, if not before. Also, who's interested in pizza? I think we have 4 vegetarians (Me, Joe, Dieter, Gabe), for what it's worth.

Edmiao jeez, four vegetarians. this trend has to stop, or the animals are going to start multiplying and will take over the world!

--Dieter the Bold 11:32, 23 June 2009 (MST) I can get myself to Juanita without too much trouble. If someone wants to pick me up there around 7pm, then we're good to go. I am also totally down for pizza. There should be lots of options in the area. Plus there's the Kirkland Costco (but take the back way to avoid traffic).

Edmiao for some reason i love cosco pizza, if you go for that i'm in. where is juanita? are we starting rp at 6-ish or are we doing magic? since it's a one shot, i suggest we start with rp. deiter can you make it by 6-ish?

--Gdaze 12:01, 23 June 2009 (MST) Costco is kinda close. And yes, I'm down for pizza, as Noelle will be too. I'll see if she wants to jump in, but maybe by 10 we will be finished? And of course I want to get some games of magic in.

Edmiao can't recall if i still have my magic dex at home or if they are at ben's. brandon, is your friend a magic guy? do you have your decks? will we have time for it? one shots probably need more time than regular sessions and we want to not go too late.

--Brandon 13:19, 23 June 2009 (MST) Googlemaps sez that Juanita is close to Gabe's house. I just introduced my friend to Magic and he's become obsessed, so I'm sure he'd love to play some (especially against someone who isn't me). I definitely don't want to go too late, but I want to give the one-shot enough time (10 seems too early to me), so how about this: if Dieter can't get there before 7ish, we'll plan on doing the normal thing and playing some Magic from 6-7 and starting once Dieter arrives/is picked up; if Dieter can get close by by 6, we'll start right away, and I'll aim on ending closer to 11:00ish, so that we can play some Magic games. Ed, I want to stop by Ben's anyway this week to pick up dice (we need A LOT of six-siders), so I'll grab your decks if they are there. Ok on all that?

Also, I don't care where the pizza comes from as long as I get to eat some and it doesn't take too long to get. The advantage with Pudge is that it's right by my house, but that means a ride to Kirkland with pizza boxes in the car. Gabe, do you think Noelle would be interested in playing in the one-shot? 'Cause she's totally invited. Just let me know soonish.

--Dieter the Bold 13:33, 23 June 2009 (MST) Always down for Pudge, but I do have this weird hankering or Costco. But as you say, Pudge doesn't require anyone to go out and get the pizza. I'm down either way. I can be there by 6pm. I'll get dropped off on Market St. which is west of Gabe's from 405. It'll be easy for someone to run down and grab me and avoid pick-ups in rush-hour heavy areas.

--Brandon 14:12, 23 June 2009 (MST) Ummmm, does anyone have a Costco card? If so, and if Dieter and Ed want to make a run to the Kirkland Costco when Dieter gets picked up, that's fine with me. Otherwise, let's plan on Ed, Joe, and I meeting at Pudge (at maybe 5:15-5:30ish) and heading over to Gabe's with pizza. We'll start the one-shot as soon as everyone is accounted for.

--Gdaze 14:54, 23 June 2009 (MST) I've got a card, and the pizza place is outside instead of inside, Noelle bought something there with no trouble last time we were there. Whomever we go with I just need there to be some pizza left over for Noelle after she gets off work.

So are we meeting at 6 then? And so far de plans look good. Yes I want to play the rigger.

Oh, and I'll let you know tonight if Noelle will play, she won't be home till like 10 though. She is interested in the world.

--Brandon 17:39, 23 June 2009 (MST) Yes, the plan is to meet at six. It seems like most people want Costco pizza, and that's fine by me. We probably want like 3 pizzas though, since we need to feed six faces. I'll make sure that there is a character available for Noelle to jump into if she makes it in time and is interested in doing so.

Edmiao gabe, why don't you get the pizza? i tried to get pizza from costco once and they gave me a real hard time about it. probably just luck of the draw, sounds like Deiter was bussing it, but Deiter, sound off on if you want us to pick you up some where on this side.

--Gdaze 11:54, 24 June 2009 (MST) I don't have a car, and Noelle will be at work. I'm not like all you two car people! That said, how about after you all arrive, we just head over there and I can go with?

--Dieter the Bold 12:15, 24 June 2009 (MST) Let's just do Pudge if we can't have pizza there and ready to go at 6. I do have a Costco card if people want to delay for Costco pizza, but it'll be around 20 minutes to go from Gabe's house, get the pizza and return. I'm down either way. I will never be disappointed by Pudge. And I'll let you know Ed, but I think I'll go the bus route.

Ed: cant believe out of five guys im the only one with a car. Yall are so unamerican. I may actually not be done exactly on time. Been real busy lately. Brandon why dont i meet you at your place so you dont have to sit on the curb for an indetermimant amount of time.

--Gdaze -- I'd still rather go with Costco, cheaper and more pizza for your buck. Let me see if I can arragne something for you whiney hoes.

--Brandon 23:20, 24 June 2009 (MST)If Gabe can arrange for Costco pizza, cool. If not, let me know and I'll set up the Pudge. Ed, I'll totally buy your pizza for all the driving you are going to do ('cause it looks like you're going to have to take Joe and I across the bridge and pick up Dieter from the bus). Joe and I will be at my house awaiting your arrival. We'll aim for 5:30, but it's cool if you're not there right then (we can play some Magic). But, if it turns out that we have to get Pudge, let me know a little in advance as to when you'll be by so that I can make sure the pizza is ready by then. Cool?

Edmiao roger. how much lead time you need for pudge, 15 minutes?

--Gdaze 09:26, 25 June 2009 (MST) Alright guys, how about this? I'm just gonna drop outta pizza, since it is as my place I can just eat whatever, so go ahead and go for Pudge, it also doesn't look like I can secure transportation for the Costco pizza anyway. Also I've eatten a lot of cheese this week so I'd like to cut down a bit on that. Is cool? I just realized it may be tough for me to beat you all to my house haha, but don't worry, I should be able to.

Edmiao I don't have your current address. can you provide. so no pizza for me.

--Gdaze 09:47, 25 June 2009 (MST) I'll email it to you, or does Brandon know it, since he is driving with you that should work?

Edmiao email it to me por favor, so i can map it on my fancy i phone.

--Brandon 10:02, 25 June 2009 (MST) I know the way, but emailing the address to Ed is still a good idea (for backup purposes). Ed, I think about 15-20 minutes lead time is reasonable. So, for pizza, it's just Me, Joe, Dieter, and Noelle? Is Noelle fine with vegetarian pizza? Dieter, will you call when you arrive, or something like that?

--Gdaze 10:07, 25 June 2009 (MST) Well I can't access my normal email at work, I'm cut off! And no, Noelle won't need pizza either. Gimmie your email Ed. But make sure to not use the @ symbol.

Edmiao its emiao......systemsbiology.org

--Dieter the Bold 10:48, 25 June 2009 (MST) Estimated Arrival Time= 5:40pm @ NE 116th / 98th Ave NE via Rt# 234. Let me know if I've got the wrong area, Gabe. And yes, I'm down for Pudge.

Edmiao deiter, do i need to pick you up at the above on our way in? as i say, not sure on timing, hoping for 5:30 depart, but could be 6 or 6:30. should not later than that though.

--Gdaze-- Yeah, thats right Dieter, you should just walk, it is uphill and takes about 20-30 minutes. Or if you want you could just meet me after work and we can bus together all HONKY like.

Edmiao Deiter, i will call you when we start on the road also, and we will coordinate, all HONKY like.

--Brandon 15:59, 25 June 2009 (MST) Does anyone know if Ben is out of town or something? I've tried to reach him a couple of times to arrange some time to swing by and pick up dice and Ed's decks, but I haven't heard back.

NOTE: I've made some minor edits to the above comments. Please consult the usage rules for this wiki when making future comments. ; )

--Dieter the Bold 16:57, 25 June 2009 (MST) Gabe has asked me to pass the message on that Noelle will be attending from the start and is ready to play. He will also be responsible for picking me up and/or walking me to his place.

Edmiao if noelle will be there from the start, gabe should get us some costco pizza.!

--Gdaze 20:31, 25 June 2009 (MST) Sure, if it will make it easier with you all. We need two then? Pep and cheese? Brandon, please text me your phone #, I had to switch phones and it didn't carry yours over. WE ARE PICKING UP PIZZA. Dieter, can you please come to the Symetra building to be picked up?

--Brandon 21:59, 25 June 2009 (MST) With six of us eating (Me, Joe, Dieter, Gabe - 4 vegetarians - Ed, & Noelle - two animal killers), we need at least 2 pizzas. 3 might be better. Cheese is fine with me, but we might want one pep, one veggie, and one cheese. Gabe, I just texted you my number. I just posted Noelle's character, and updated versions of all of the other characters as well. Take a look at them before tomorrow night, so you can ask questions if necessary. Or, you know, don't.

Plans to save Danny-Girl from the dragon

Fight the dragon, kill it

Lyra told us where to find the freezing Tears of _____ so we can put out the dragon's breath, right before she extinguished the eternal forge flame in our temple (bitch) by sucking its soul out like a vampire. She will help us fight the dragon. In return we agreed to let her strike the killing blow IF we successfully obtain the Tears. Other allies could also be enlisted in the fight.

Deal with the dragon

Give the dragon something he wants more than Danny. Say the Ruby shield or freeing Iximion.

Dragon vs Dragon

Free Iximion, tell him Oryxis is getting up in his magic shit and doens't he want to kick the shit out of Oryxix for learning magic?

ED: anything interesting happen last week?

--Gdaze 09:21, 23 June 2009 (MST) We raided the Forge's stash. Turns out the Prince took all the shiney stuff, which is actually the weaker stuff. I got a box. Matt got a sword, and we went into the old ways and had it forged by some old dwarf witch. My shadow self called out to my crow and killed it. Oh, there is now basically a pirate town on the island as well. We went to see the fairy king who was way more relaxed then before but still a dick. Matt met the new guard of the fairy bridge.

Oh, and there is a big political scuffle at the Forge (mostly due to our request). It isn't too bad right now though.
