New Hampshire Gameday - Sat. Dec. 6th

[Silver Moon]

My family will be hosting a one-day Gameday at our home in Raymond, New Hampshire (off of Route 101, half way betwen routes 93 and 95) on Saturday, December 6th.

The schedule is:

8:30 to 9:30 AM - Breakfast buffet (each person should bring something for it if you're planning to arrive prior to the first gaming slot).

9:30 AM to 1:30 PM - Gaming Slot One, we have a big house so up to four games can run per slot. (Game Descriptions in the next post)

1:30 to 3:00 PM lunch - a full turkey dinner with all the fixings (we do ask for a $ 5 donation for anybody who wants to share in the prepared lunch - alternately, you could bring your own lunch).

3:00 PM to 7:00 PM Gaming Slot Two. (game descriptions in the next post).


I'll be cross-posting this on three message boards and updating the opening thread with the gaming schedule once we have some gamemasters sign up. Based upon last year, there should be enough gamemasters interested that each would only need to run once and get to play in the other slot.

Without ready access through the gap the Riperian army will be under-supplied for it's assault on the Black Fortress of Arithdor.

The exact resting place of the sword is unkown, if the sages are correct it will be found in one of the three following places: The crypt of Ithor (the Villain of Kathidand) within the southern extens of The Gaunt. The armory of the Grey Elf King Nerindimol or perhaps returned by to it's smiths of Imindor by the Hero Garmond. You must complete this task in two weeks or the assault against the growing darkness may falter and degenerate into a defense" Characters will be provided.

It would be awesome to see you.

AO and I, are as always, in. I believe AO plans on running something.

 

[Ao the Overkitty]

Yeah. I posted in one of the other threads.

I'll run something. What it is specifically, I'm unsure. I'm currently working on 3 oneshots:
Monsters and Other Childish Things - The Great Pumpkin Mystery (A Peanuts Adventure)
Monsters and Other Childish Things - As Yet Untitled (A Calvin & Hobbes Adventure)
Dread - CaNaRieS Down the Mineshaft (A SciFi Horror game)

I'm open to suggestions.

 

[scholar]

tentatively count myself and yttrai in...

and if I could get a spot in the roaring twenties game that would be awesome

 

[Yttrai]

I can't commit right now, but i do so want to be in

 

[Qualidar]

Yeah. I posted in one of the other threads.

I'm open to suggestions.

PKB "suggests" that you run the Peanuts one. I'd go with her on that, or your slot might start to look like another 20's gangster scene. Capiche?

BTW, we're in.

Silver Moon, I'd also like in your game, please (as would PKB).

 

[John Crichton]

Seonaid and I may be there. Gotta check the dates.

 

[Silver Moon]

Sounds good, I'll start a games listing this evening.

Players (especially those with allergies) should know that we have a cat.


Gamemasters should indicate:

1. How many players they wish for their game;
2. If they would prefer the morning or afternoon slot;
3. If characters will be provided and/or criteria for generating playign charcters;
4. The answer to the question "If a tree falls in the forest and it lands on a mime does the mime make a sound?";
5. If there is anything specificially they will need for the game (battlemat, mimimum table size, etc.)
6. If they have a preference of room

Room choices are:

Game Room (Dining Room) - huge room with huge table and wood stove that will be running during the game.

Living room (Comfy Chair Room) - another large room with several couches and soft chairs.

Kitchenette - smaller room with a kitchen table that can hold 5-6 players plus a Gamemaster.

Office - another smaller room that can hold 5-6 players, (with the potential distraction of several thousand comic books also being in that same room).
