Thanks Jeph for bringing the next NCGD to my attention.  I've been wanting to come to one of these for a while now, but have been two busy with work and side stuff to come.I'm still iffy about this one: Everything about it is screaming "You're free this time! Go to it!", but the only problem is that January 31st is my birthday, and I don't know what my wife/friends have in store for that day. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f641.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":(" title="Frown    :("  data-smilie="3"data-shortname=":(" />Anyway, If I CAN come, I'll probably run a couple pick-up games of some RPG or another: Either Dread, My own game I'm playtesting now (Kyuseisha: Think Mad Max meets Dynasty Warriors).  Or, just to match the d20 vibe, maybe a little BESM d20 action.  But, again, It'll be pick-ups: Just in case I can't make it, or if others suddenly join, etc.I dig the vibe of the upcoming NCGD-Trinoc cooperative for this one event.  I'm in charge of the Non-RPGA RPG portion of the gaming events at Trinoc-Con next year (which amounts to doing a lot of straightening chairs, area planning, event coordination and the like: Neal's the "real man" when it comes to overall gaming planning at the con- and as earlier stated, he IS a really nice guy), and think that setting up a meet like this would be really cool for both groups: We get to throw in some games that may interest you guys (board games, etc), widen the audience a little, and will hopefully:A) Get some more RPG folks onto the EnWorld forums.B) Get some more folks to check out Trinoc-Con.Personally, I'm a big RPGNet whore (and The Forge as well), but getting people together for local events is really hard with those forums- Most people are scattered all over the place.  I think what you've got going on here is really friggin cool (even if it's just "See the people behind the avatars on this board"). You guys are really coordinated and vocal, and I hope that I can come join in on the fun.Anyway, just wanted to stick my head in and say hi (and thanks again to Jeph). If I come, I'll be bringing some gaming goodness, and if not, I wish eveyone who goes a fun time.-Andy</blockquote>
