NC Game Day VII - April 23!

[Belen]

Great. And, by the way, I picked up d20 Past last week per your suggestion at the last Game Day. I'm finding that a lot of the stuff that I did to mold d20 Modern into a workable Sky Galleons format closely matches the d20 Past stuff. In other words I probably didn't need the book all that much. But I've picked up a few useful tidbits from it and it has some other fun campaign ideas that I might have to try one day.

I'll bring it along and let you have a look at it.

No worries. I have the book and love it. I only wish it were bigger and done in hardcover.

I just got word that I'm probably going to have a job on Friday, April 23 that may interfere with some of the tentative plans I'd discussed with a few folks upthread. The job starts at 10:00 in the morning and probably won't last more than a couple hours but it's in New Bern, NC (that's out on the coast for you out of state types). So it will probably be 3:00 at the earliest before I get back into town. This sadly means that I won't be able to hit the BBQ joint with Nakia and it may curtail my offer to show die kluge around town.

I did want to offer a couple of idea by way of substitute: I was thinking about picking up some BBQ on Friday night and bringing it for lunch on Saturday. If that interests anybody else then I'll be glad to pick you up some.

And as for the sightseeing trip around town for die kluge (assuming he is still even remotely considering a move to the area), I could easily reschedule this for Sunday morning if you're planning on staying overnight. My wife and child are headed out of town on Saturday morning so I've got no other obligations that would prevent this.

Let me know what you guys want to do and I'll do my best to be both caterer and tour guide.

I am all about the bar-b-que. If you have to be in New Bern on Friday, then I'd be happy to have some for lunch on Saturday. Cheers to Rel, NC Gameday host extrordinaire!

Rel,

I should be able to make it on Sunday. Would you mind posting a quick list of who's actually signed up for the game? I threw my name in the hat a page or so ago, but I wanted to make sure before I show up @ 1:30 . Also, I assume that directions are forthcoming? Or should we just look for the pillar of evil light and drive towards it ?

I'm still waiting to hear back something. They wanted me to revise my resume to better reflect the skills they were looking for. And then I think the guy who was reading it was out sick. I'm not planning on staying over Saturday night. and if we did a sight-seeing thing, my wife might want to be a part of that. So we might could do it some other weekend if you're open to that.

And I'm all for barbecue. Maybe it would be easier to cater it to the event, versus having you bring a bunch of barbecue with you?

Ok, it looks like we've got a full table now. The roster is as follows:

Jon Potter - Captain Umbridge
BelenUmeria - Budrajah
Kat - Lizzie Jameson
AdamantineAngel - Tex
Kerrance (a friend of mine) - Carlotta

and that would leave Professor MacTaggart for you, NCSUCM. I hope that's ok.

As for how to get there, it is pretty easy. All Fun n' Games is located in the Crescent Commons Shopping Center at the interesection of Tryon Road and Kildaire Farm Road in Cary. Basically, if you go south on Kildaire Farm Rd from where Errico's is, you'll go through about a half dozen or so stoplights, cross Tryon Road (this is a pretty big intersection) and take the next right. There's a Wal-Mart in there so you can't miss it.

By the way, Matt, did you ever get word back about how things came out for the next three dates we were seeking from Talley? Could you e-mail me about that?

That'll work just fine. If the job looks promising then just give me a holler and let me know when you guys are free and I'll be happy to play tour guide if my schedule allows.

I'll have to see how many folks are interested. Catering it to the Game Day sounds a bit more complex and expensive than I was really looking for. We'll work something out though.

I'm all for BBQ and willing to kick in a few bucks of course, but won't be heartbroken if it doesn't work out - the Pizza thing we've done in the past worked adequately, too.
