Dumb idea...? I propose a worldwide ENboards get-together game day.

[Dr Midnight]

Was just in the Gamers seeking Gamers forum, and saw that there's a Boston get-together thread (which I'm involved with) and a Toronto get-together thread.

Now, just in the spirit of shmaltzy, I'd-like-to-buy-the-world-a-coke community spirit and brotherhood, I propose we set one day in the future as a worldwide ENboards game day. Players find their regional game location (Sidney, London, Boston, Austin, etc.) and someone in each region hosts the event. We all spend the day playing with other ENfolk.

Obvious impracticalities aside, the concept brings a tear to my shriveled, pink-rimmed eye.

It would be cool, but I would not the money for such a trip.

 

[Dr Midnight]

Well, ideally, everyone would have a game within driving distance to go to.

 

[Sir Osis of Liver]

sounds good to me, it would cool, we can sing coom by ya and everything. Sign me up!

 

[Dungeon Master]

Sounds like a cool idea. I'm in!

Good gracious, Dr. Midnight! What have you done? Have you no idea what havoc this will wreak upon an unsuspecting world?

You guys do realize that Dr. Midnight has his super death runebeam ready for action, don't you, and he just needs a coordinated source of geek energy to power it with?

He's gonna organize this international gaming day, you're gonna join in, you're gonna have your souls sucked from you by his nefarious incantations, and his super death runebeam is gonna start blasting people, and you'll be to blame.

Just so you know.

looks like you found a following... alls you need now is an idiot to raise his hand to volunteer to host it...

My Gosh- can you imagine hosting a gathering of 100 geeks that just sit around the house all day- rowdy and loud.. and then there are the ones that are gonna come in character- we got elves and dwarves running around the rooms and ugly troll of a man rampaging through the halls- and a ogre of a woman tearing trhough the fridge...

Man, Peter Jackson can just bring a camera there and start rollin'. He would have the fight sequence for his next film...

Wait. Theoretically a geek powered rune beam would wipe out all the non-geeks, thereby leaving us to rule the world! Where's the downside?

That would, of course, be just freakin' awful.

For the Boston area get-togethers we can only gather maybe 6-10 people at a time, so I doubt there'd be many areas with more gamers than they could handle.

We behave well when tramping around in Piratecat's house, and have some good hearty fun. Plus, if you can lure one of his dogs into the closet with a milk-bone, there's even more fun to be had.

Finding people to host would be the big chore, but I think it could happen.
