Dungeons & Dragons/Game Night

This week, our Game Night will be forever changed as we know it.

First of all, no D&D on Friday Night because dude that's WATCHMEN NIGHT!!! I'll be hitting the Alderwood Regal Stadium 7 (that's the one across the street from the Mall with the big comfy seats, not the one in the Mall parking lot with the "But uf we sacrifice comfort we can cram another 40 people in this room" seating) for the 4pm showing and won't be getting home till some time after 8. 'Cuz that's how you roll when you go see a 3-hour Super Hero EPIC, dawg!

So our next Gaming Night will be on SATURDAY, MARCH 14th. You heard me... Saturday. This will make it MUCH easier for people to get here without having to fight Friday Night Rush-Hour Traffic, and also opens things up nicely for if we want to do any BBQing over the course of the Summer. I'm flexible on start-time, but figure that any time after 2pm on Saturday.

Also, in the interest of giving all y'all a bit of your life back, I suggest that we make this a MONTHLY affair instead of Bi-Weekly.

SO! IN SUMMATION! The Knights of The Sacred Slinky shall from here on forward meet on the SECOND SATURDAY of EACH MONTH for feast, merriment and lusty bold adventure. It'll be a Pot-Luck Affair. Many games will be played, not the least of which will be a rousing series of "Done-In-One" interlinked adventures. Other games to be considered will be Munchkin, Zombies, Robo Rally and whatever else we can get our grubby little hands on.

Sound good? Any thoughts on the matter? Opinions? Suggestions?

Oh, also? If you can read this, you're invited :)

i'd be interested in coming over, schedule permitting. i'll have to check if Sophia's game for these. i do have one game night at a friend's house on Saturdays already, every other week... so if i have Sophia, i'll try coming by yours and se ehow it goes. if i don't, i'll probably swing by yours in the afternoon and stay til the evening, then drive myself down to Factoria.

i cna also bring Carcassonne (with loads of expansiony goodness yet without the stupid), Catan (no major expansions though), Risk 2210, Agricola, or other games... i have a good 50+ board/card games here, not to mention the video game collection that makes geeks drool.

I may be able to come. Amanda is probably gonna go out w/ her sister & I can skip my usual D&D game. So... I didn't immediately see the answer to this & I'm doing this on my G1, so I'm not gonna look... kid friendly? I'd likely have a 6 & 9 yr old in tow.

Also, d'you think anyone would like to play/test my strategy board game? The basic rules & deck are getting to be fairly well hammered out & I'd love more input. ^_^

Ack! Totally spaced on the fact that Julia's belated birthday party is earlier that day. My attendance will likely depend on whether the cousins stay after the party...

Kid-friendly of an environment as can be expected when Freak is concerned :) Also, there may be light boozing from the Canadian delegate. But Molly will be here (who is 3) and probably another little girl (who is 4) and *maybe* yet ANOTHER little girl who is older than that (can't remember... 9 or 10?)

Sure bring your game along... is it one that will consume all our time, or will we still be able to play other games?

I'll be making another post early Wednesday asking for folks to confirm/deny that they can make it... be sure to chime in there!

A typical game takes an hour or less. Usually less. If we don't make it this week, I'll make it a point to make the next one.
