I hate to point this out, but you have "II" instead of "III" in the title.

  • Prospective GMs will be allowed to start posting games on the 4th of September.
  • Player signups will start on the 18th of September.
  • There will be a morning (probably 10-2:30) and afternoon (probably 3:30-8) session, followed by some sort of dinner outing.

Was hoping to run Shazbot II but with Seo and OO not going it may be best to hold off. I'd most likely still run something in the PM slot.

Oh well, f**k. Shazbot II was the only game I was definitively planning on playing.

Grrrr.

I know you wanted the original group but I *totally* want to play in the sequel and not sure our group will ever get back together...

So if you run I can play Kelly

But poor LIz :-(

They're slated to stay with MyLiz and I, so I'm assuming they are.

Running a new Dread game in the morning, set during the 80s in Miami. In the afternoon, the last (probably) running of the Return of the Winter Witch.

Was thinking of running Desolation, but so much of that is setting that I can't come up with anything for a one-shot that would play to its strengths.

Hot damn!

BTW - It is entirely possible that Liz MAY go but she won't know until much closer to the gameday. It's 95% no-go at this point.

As long as something crazy doesn't happen, yes, we're planning on it.

I'm thinking of running a Dread adaptation of "The Sea of Sorrow", an old Spelljammer adventure from an early 90s issue of Dungeon magazine. I haven't decided whether or not to yet and I see Jody seems to be running an interesting Dread game already in the morning.

That would be OK with me....I'm still pondering what (and if) I'll run...I'm sure I could come up with something, though, that would take the Shazbot refugees off of your hands.

Hoody Hoo! It's looking like I'll be making it to this.

Damn, I just realized this will be the first gameday I'll have been to since last fall's DC gameday... Crazy year.

Thinking about running some Alternity, if there's interest.

Looks like I'll be able to make it down for this one. So, anyone have any advice for someone who has no familiarity with any of these game systems and hasn't played a game since the DC Gameday last October?
