I'm glad the week is about done. Catching up on the posts here, I'm glad to chip in funds for myself and Teri ( [MENTION=35735]Dantilla[/MENTION] ) for the BBQ munchies.
[MENTION=29637]nasrat[/MENTION] - If you can manage to get to Harvard Square, we should be able to head through that area and would be able to pick the two of you up as we head to Fickle's place. Let me know if that works for you.

Mr Wright and I may be able to make Jambalaya again as a chicken-only with vegetable option, if there is need.

We'll probably have room for at least one more rider , leaving from Dorchester/Ashmont Red Line stop that morning.

Let me know what works!

Harvard Square is perfect - we'll be staying close to Davis on Mass Ave. I'll PM you contact detail.

There you go spoiling the surprise, piratecat. Thanks for letting me know about this!

EDIT: Oh yeah, put me down for BBQ, too.

So, since FickleGM is a goober and didn't allow alternates for the games, I can't tell if Kevin's game has more interest than space. If it does, and JC's game isn't punked, I want to switch to JC's game. If JC's game is gonna get punked (I will agree heartily that his game is best with a full table), I want to stay in PC's. If that's too confusing, just ignore this post...

Gooberosity aside, I completely follow. :)

I can guarantee one more, if JC's okay with a 19 year-old mommy joining the fun (two more if you want a 4 month-old in the game, but we're going to try to keep him otherwise occupied ;) ). She even stole my Xbox live account and uses FickleGM in an MMO (League of Legends)...

If that keeps JC's game afloat, I can move you into it. Doing so would pretty much keep all the afternoon games in the mix, but the morning edition of Sertorius may be in jeopardy.

Okay, I moved [MENTION=11195]Seonaid[/MENTION] from [MENTION=2]Piratecat[/MENTION] 's game to [MENTION=4779]John Crichton[/MENTION] 's game. I also added Tabitha (my daughter) to [MENTION=177]Umbran[/MENTION] 's game and [MENTION=4779]John Crichton[/MENTION] 's game.

If we aren't able to get at least two more players for [MENTION=74330]LordBill[/MENTION] 's morning game by next Saturday, I'm going to go ahead and move that we cancel that game and move [MENTION=74330]LordBill[/MENTION] & [MENTION=88534]WalkingCorpse[/MENTION] into [MENTION=177]Umbran[/MENTION] 's game. I am perfectly satisfied with sitting out the first game and helping with any preparations necessary for lunch.

While the afternoon games are not all full, I believe that each has enough players to make a go of it, so I'm going to assume all five will be run (if anyone feels that they do not have enough players to run their game, please let me know). Due to the attendance of this Gameday being a bit over 4-games and well under a full 5-games, I'm going to ask that anyone who has to bow out PLEASE post in this thread as soon as possible, so that contingency plans can be put into motion.

Anyone who is driving - please park along the side of the road in front of our house (3 Bridle Spur Rd - second house on the right...white one on top of the hill), or along the road on Bridle Spur Rd or Lakeview Ave - Please be courteous and do not block any mailboxes or driveways. The indented-gravel space in front of the third house on the right is part of the neighbor's driveway, so please avoid parking there, as well. Other than that, there should be plenty of curbside parking between Bridle Spur Rd and Lakeview Ave.

As a final note - if anyone needs to be picked up from the train station, please let me know. Thank you!

I wish we had a few more, but I'm still very excited and looking forward to May 4th! I can't wait to see all of you!

Hey, it is Matt (of Lugazi fame). Finally got around to signing up to the site. Hmm, sign me up for Fungus and Bulger? Or maybe Steam Wars.

Looks like all of one gaming group and most of two others will be present!

Matt & D ( [MENTION=6741636]Tachikoma[/MENTION] & [MENTION=6741645]RazorLollipopGirl[/MENTION] ), I will throw you into the last two spots in the Atomic Robo game and the Bulger game.

With that said, we are full on 4 of 5 morning games. I have a couple potential recruits left to try, so I am hoping Game 2 in the morning happens. :)

Yikes! We are only a few days away (and I may, or may not, be very nervous)!

Address:
[sblock]
3 Bridle Spur Rd*
Danvers, MA 01923

*Or Ln - it recently changed, so GPS might recognize Ln.
[/sblock]

I can't do directions very well, but I will try:

I-95 (from the North):
[sblock]
Take exit 50 onto Route 1/Newburyport Turnpike/Boston St.

Take the exit onto HWY 62 toward Danvers, go under RTE 1, stay right and get immediately back on Route 1/I-95 going north.
[/sblock]

I-95 (from the south):
[sblock]
Take exit 50 toward Topsfield.
[/sblock]

Everyone else:
[sblock]
If it is easier to get onto RTE 1 from the north, going south, do so. Go past the Topsfield Fairgrounds and turn left onto Salem Rd, then follow the last paragraph in the next sblock.

All others should find their way to HWY 62, travel west through Danvers OR east toward Danvers, hop onto RTE 1/I-95 North.
[/sblock]

RTE 1 North:
[sblock]
At the stoplight, go straight.

Continue for about 1 3/4 miles.

Turn right onto Salem Rd (this will be at the second yellow intersection sign - the first will be a left-only, while this is a + intersection).

Stay on Salem Rd for about a mile, then turn right at Lakeview Ave (immediately past the Danvers townline...the crappy road gains a center stripe at this point).
[/sblock]

Arriving and Parking:
[sblock]
Lakeview Ave is a U that eventually connects back with the road you just left (called Locust St in Danvers), so if you get to a T, just turn around and come back up.

There is only one road off of Lakeview Ave, the one I live on, Bridle Spur Rd. We are the second house on the right (big white house at the top of the hill).

We don't have any real parking, per se, as the driveway would be single-file and not fun to get in and out of, so please park along the street on Bridle Spur or Lakeview.

Be mindful of other people's driveways and mailboxes, as this is a mail delivery day (including our mailbox). Do not park in front of the house immediately next to us further in on Bridle Spur, as they have turned their "roadside" into a gravel parking spot for a few of their vehicles.

Other than that, there should be plenty of parking with a short walk.
[/sblock]

Note: Anyone in the area who knows how to get to my place is free to take your own route. :)

Call me if you get lost or need help.

We received no word regarding train station pick-ups, so we are assuming everyone is driving or riding with someone who is.

EDIT: As a user of tapatalk, I know that my use of sblocks isn't helpful, so know that I do empathize with others who use this app. Sorry.

Whoo hoo, I can't wait! I'll be spending Friday cooking BBQ while I work. Fickle, what's our total person-count for attendees?
