Potluck cookout sounds good to me.
Rel said:As for occupying your wife and child while you game, there is a lot to do around here. For little kids like your daughter, maybe The NC Natural History Museum (lots of dino skeletons and stuff like that) or possibly Exploris. There are also a ton of parks and such in the area that I can direct you to if you like. Pullen Park in particular might be good. It is over near NC State and has a couple playgrounds as well as a little train to ride, a boat ride and paddleboats you can rent. Our 3 year old loves that place.
Rel said:Maybe I'm just hungry but I thought we'd talk about food for a few minutes:
As to the "pre dinner" on Friday night, I had a thought of doing something a little different. My wife and child will be out of town for the weekend this Game Day falls on and I was thinking of possibly offering to host a cookout style pre-dinner this time around. The weather will hopefully be pretty good by late April and I've got a big deck and a grill. We could eat chips and hot dogs (or whatever) all evening and hang out chatting about gaming on comfortable (if a bit stained by my messy child and dogs) couches instead of sitting around the table at Errico's.
Would this idea appeal to anybody moreso than our usual routine? In case it impacts your decision, I live down south of Cary, about fifteen minutes from Errico's. Assuming light traffic, I'm about 25 minutes from the NC State campus area.

I like my beer more like "making love in a canoe".
Rel said:I assumed your back seat would be full of it!
I'll admit that I'm just not man enough to drink that stuff. I like my beer more like "making love in a canoe".

Old One said:For those playing in my Black Eyes of the Demon Scorpion game (Rel, Cthulhu's Librarian, Henry, Riggs and Nakia), I just wanted to get a sense of who has what books. Ideally, if you can beg, borrow or steal GT and/or BCCS, that would be lovely...but we will work around as needed. Many of the GT feats are in the d20 Modern SRD.
We will probably have 2 primary casters and it would be very helpful for those folks to get a good look at the BCCS magic system and pre-make some spell effects based on the spells I saddle them...er, provide them with!
So, please respond at your earliest convenience:
1) Do you have or can you borrow a copy of Grim Tales (I know Henry just got his)?
2) Do you have or can you borrow a copy of BCCS?
3) Do you have a real strong preference on the "type" of PC you play (strong, fast, tough, smart, dedicated, charismatic)?
Thanks!

PS - For those that played in my "A Tight Spot" siege extravaganza, I will be recycling several of those PCs - updated and altered for the GT/BCCS hybrid.
