Chicago Gameday XII is over... share the memories!

Sorry to hear that, Shadowbane. Real Sorry.
Buzz, can I claim one of those slots to get into your Harry Potter Game?
Yep, real sorry.

(Actually I am truly sorry. Hope it's nothing serious.)

For those itching to see what characters are available for Accursed City, you can take a peek at a few Right Here.

Now a total of 9 characters are available for your inspection, 3 of which have male / female alter egos.

Are these characters some new variant on shapechangers (ie sex-changers) or just characters that sometimes go around in drag?

Sorry, can't make it this Gameday

Hey Buzz,
Sorry for the last minute bad news but I can not make it to Gameday at all. I gotta take care of my car Sat since it has problems with the thermostat and engine overheating so I have to get that done. Make sure to remove me then from Slot 1/Game 5 and Slot2/Game 6 then.
I did manage to get about 3 to 4 people from the Aurora and Wheaton Meetup groups heading for Gameday and a couple positive responses last Sunday 11/6 from my Berwyn Group so you should have a decent amount of last minute registrants and walk-in's.
Well, have fun and I will hopefully see you the next time around!

Once again, My friend and I have to pull out of our second slots events. We'll still be there for the first half, though.

Stink! Sorry to hear that, SB. I've removed you and your guest from the afternoon roster.

Yep, real sorry.

Done!

Sorry for the last minute bad news but I can not make it to Gameday at all.

Stink!!! Well, we'll catch you next time. Good luck with your car; car problems blow!

FWIW, this does mean that there is now a seat available in "Against the Giants" and "Six Flags of Doom".

This is much appreciated, GORAK.

Sorry you can't make it Gorak! Fixing cars sucks. :\

Since it is now open, I'll take the Six Flags of Doom slot please.

GORAK, sorry that you can't make it. I sympathize with you over car problems.

If you can, do suggest that the people from the Aurora and the Wheaton groups try to sign up for some of the remaining slots.

Shadowbane, sorry to hear that you and your friend are going to miss the second slot. So, I still have some slots to fill for my event and I can take in some walk-ins.

I also made a post about the Gameday at The Chicagoland Dungeons and Dragons Forum. Hopefully, some people will turn out.

Done!

Update

Good news: The surgery went as well as can be expected according to my wife's physician and everything should heal nicely.

Bad news: They underestimated the amount of post-surgery pain my dear wife would be in and did not give her a strong enough painkiller...so back to the hospital we went at 5:00 a.m. this morning. It's a damn shame the insurance companies and hospitals try so hard to make even invasive surgical procedures outpatient affairs. No one likes being in the hospital any longer than they have to be, but sometimes an overnight stay is warranted. Now I'll get back down off my little soapbox, and return you all to discussions of nefarious plots and gaming goodness!!

Finally, thanks to everyone for their heartfelt wishes and kind thoughts.

Kevin, I am glad that your wife's surgery went well but sad that she had to be rushed back to the hospital because of a desire to try to make as many procedures as possible outpatient arrairs, to use your words. Hang in there, and give her our wishes for a full and speedy recovery.
