Chicago Gameday XV: Thanks for the memories

[buzz]

I wonder how many people even get the reference.

:raises hand:

That's the second thing that's made me feel old today. The other was learning that the written-by-a-16-year-old book Eragon has been made into a movie with Jeremy Irons and John Malkovich, as well as a CRPG.

FYI, I sent out a request for prize donations to my list of publishers yesterday. We'll see what happens.

Tough on grease... Easy on hands.

Go easy on Vinny, ok, Troy?

(Just kidding...stick it to him.)

LOL, ok. I may be a cuddly marshmellow on the outside, but on the inside I'm roasted jello!! So watch it, I may just make you the Kenny of the group.

Mark, should I stop by Tucker Inn to get some desserts for the gameday?

Who serves Pudding in a Cloud?

"The WolfRiders" cancelled

[highlight]Slot 1, Game 4: The WolfRiders has been cancelled.[/highlight] As it always does, life gets in the way, and Redwind will not be able to make Gameday.

spacepirat3, Gwen110, Sir Brennen, and Yort are now game-less for the morning slot.

So, we've got an event slot to fill. Unless someone else wants to volunteer, I will step forward and run something. (I'm bummed, though, as I really want to play Hero's Banner.)

Do the displaced people above have any preference? I could run:

• ...my Burning Empires event a second time
• Burning Wheel
• D&D
• Iron Heroes
• something else

I'm going to wait at least overnight before I make a final decision, in case other people come forward.

OK, Buzz, you still haven't added me for Breakfast.

Careful, or I'll run Synnibarr!






I know, I know, signing up for breakfast doesn't really matter. But it's a more entertaining way to bump the thread.....

AUUUGHH!!!

Done.

...Redwind will not be able to make Gameday.

Can you adjust my afternoon event to reflect his abscence? It opens up a seat in the Pineapple Extravaganza.

Ah, well; it's just my instant karma for suggesting, even in jest (would that be a sujjestion?), the standby player list for the IH vs. the Isle of Dread game.

And weren't those commercials with Madge usually followed by some snarky woman saying to her husband: "Ancient chinese secret, huh?"

Actually, it's a customer in a (what else?) Chinese-run laundry who is snarky. The man (played by Brian Tochi of Razzmatazz "fame") does the whole "ancient Chinese secret" thing. The wife blows the lid off the entire scam with her cheerful, "We need more Calgon!" And then the customer is snarky to Brian Tochi.

God, I know entirely too much trivia.
