11 people in the RPG room might be very interesting.
Dread, yes? Or were you making a funny?

It will probably be standing room only. Trying to play DREAD seated is... foolish. But yeah, I should probably make a note of that- 10 "seats" is perhaps inaccurate.
Also I doubt I'll get all 10 people.
Dread, yes? Or were you making a funny?
I think he's just giving me static. He likes to do that =P

In all honesty, it was not clear to me. I got the impression it was Dread, but the wording had me unsure whether it was a pun or just descriptive language.

Buzz, please add another event for me in the afternoon slot.
TOMB: Tomb of Horrors/House of Cards Remix!
"System" : Tomb Boardgame
Seats: 5
Description: Recruit a party and gear up. Some evil so-and-so infused the Deck of Many Things into Acererak's tomb. Can your party kill the most monsters? Take the most stuff? Survive the deadliest of traps? All for the glory of besting the other hapless souls daring to enter the infamous demi-lich's crypt.
This event uses the Tomb and Tomb: Cryptmasters boardgame. We will be using completely random card layout, a custom-made tomb map, and random crypt modifiers inspired by the Deck of Many Things. Familiarity a plus, but rules will be taught.

D&D Next vs. I6: Ravenloft

I trust your judgement, buzz, but feel free to use the still awesome original cover art: http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/2/2c/Ravenloft_I6.jpg
Number of Players:
6 pre-generated characters. If you’ve got a current D&D next character of 10th level that you’d like to kick the tires on, you’re welcome to bring them along—just send make a note in the sign up thread or PM me in advance.
No Table Preference
Description
“Under raging storm clouds, a lone figure stands upon the ancient walls of Castle Ravenloft. Lightning splits the sky, its cold light revealing a tall form wrapping in a billowing cape of shadows. Another flash exposes a face full of power and madness, contorted by a tragedy darker than the night. Far below, a part of adventurers has entered his dread domain. He smiles. Another lightning bolt rips through the night, but the figure is gone. Only a howling wind fills the midnight air.
The master of Castle Ravenloft is having guests for dinner—and you’re invited.”
Come see if you can outwit the master of Castle Ravenloft armed with your fancy new D&D edition. A classic AD&D adventure that spawned an entire campaign setting, and was probably one of the first published adventures to have a villain with goals, a detailed background story, and a personality.

Greetings. I am your SuperUser. Today we will experience life on a toroid space station off of Saturn. Our Utopia is crowded but dynamic. We’ve turned death into little more than setback and eliminated the need for money.
What drives us then? The continuing pursuit of our shifting desires! But don’t get a Frownie, or everyone on the station will know you did bad.
We’re happy pioneers out here on the shoulder of Saturn and you can be too! So print out a spare body and buy some fresh memories and get ready for the transhumanist weirdness that is FreeMarket!
FreeMarket can handle a maximum of five users of adult age and preferably without Frownies!

This sounds like Dread. Which I adore. I so wish I was not going to be out town for this.

It is, in fact, Dread. Which for some reason I have been laboring under the impression should be stylized DREAD, but since nobody else seems to be doing so, perhaps I am in error.
Not that his has ever stopped me before.
It is possible this game will not go off, and I may switch to DRYH instead, so maybe you won't be missing anything =P
