NC Game Day VII - April 23!

[Rel]

FIRE ELEMENTALS roamed the streets, causing random carnage and destruction.

I thought he was a Bear Elemental. Made from the element of Bear.

(note this is not the same thing, and is in fact considerably worse than, a Beer Elemental. Made from the element of Beer.)

Yes, I'll be coming down with Nakia and Cthulhu's Librarian. I'll be happy to feast on much barbecue.

Is there an estimate of what time you guys are going to be rolling into town? If possible, I'd like for as many of those wanting BBQ to be able to ride along to go pick it up. This would assure that you get exactly what you want and I won't have to wrangle back and forth with so many folks about the menu choices and whatnot.

If you can't make it down early then don't worry about it.

In case you want to get your mouth ready, here's the menu.

If we want to go more generic then I can get a couple of their "PDQ's" (pound of BBQ, pint of slaw, pint of veggies and a dozen hushpuppies) and we can just make barbecue sandwiches to our heart's malcontent.

Ole Time BBQ eh? That's just up the street from where I work. I fact, our secretary use to work there quite a bit and helps with catering sometimes. Lillian, or simply Lil to friends. Either way, good choice on Ole Time. They are tops in Raleigh for BBQ.

Oh man, I shouldn't look at that so close to lunch. Now I'm starving.

I think the plan is that CL and Nakia will be in Richmond by about 1-ish, which should put us in Raleigh by 4-ish? I think it's a 3-hour drive, IIRC, from Richmond.

BTW, the NC game day site appears to be down...

BTW, the NC game day site appears to be down...

It's run off a server at Neal's home. If there was a brief power outage or something like that then it might be down for the rest of the day. Nothing to worry about.

As to the matter of travel plans and BBQ, you guys will be in town in plenty of time to get in on the trip to the restaurant if you don't mind. If you'll tell me where are you planning on staying then we can work out the logistics about whether I pick you up there or if you want to come on down to the house and ride from here.

OK... from playing in a one-shot of yours for TWO HOURS, my character had dead enemies stacked up around him like cordwood to hold a gate. Flights of Arrows blotted the sun from the sky at random intervals. FIRE ELEMENTALS roamed the streets, causing random carnage and destruction. Not a whole session... TWO HOURS!

And yet, you have me coming back like Oliver Twist.

Hehe...just wait until you meet the sand elementals...talk about grit in yer britches !

I just vote for a couple of pounds of BBQ (pork and chicken) + fixins...

That makes it easy. Just let me know what I owe. We can also pick up some adult beverages on the way in...Guinness, Smithyck's, Newcastle...the good stuff.

I think we're planning on staying at the Motel 6 again. It's cheap.

And I'm with Old One in that picking up generic packages of barbecue may be the easiest option. Do they cater? If they do, they can probably prepare large quantities of it ahead of time.
