North Carolina Game Day VI: January 29

I'm going to try and come down with Cthulhu's Librarian and die_kluge. I'm a gameday novice. What games are still available? The Giants, maybe? What else do I need to do if I can make it?

Are you signed up at the Game Day site? If not then check the link on the first page of this thread. Once you get signed up (and it is fairly painless - I hope ) then you can pre-register for any game you like, provided it isn't already full.

That's about it really. If you're travelling down with CL then your first stop will probably be the Pre-Dinner where we get together at a local restaurant to socialize. The next morning will be game day and we'll play all day, followed by a group dinner afterwards at Rock-Ola Cafe for some burgers and beers and more chatting about the events of the day, gaming and life in general.

Let me know if you've got other specific questions. But don't be surprised if it is tomorrow night before I get back to you. I've got jobs scheduled most of the day tomorrow.

I've registered with the game day site! I'm still trying to figure out if I can go; I'll know by the end of the day today. If not, there's always next time.

Looks like Henry's Giants game is full, which is too bad. Although I have seen and heard about that module since I started playing D&D 15 years or so ago, I've never actually played it.

We'll see what happens. Thanks for all the help!

I should be there for the Errico's dinner next Friday, Rel. I think my GF has something planned, but if she opts to come, I'll let you know ASAP.

If there's any interest, I could run a round-robin game in the morning slot, since there doesn't seem to be any available RPG slots open then. And there seems to be quite a few people in Henry's game. Basically, round-robin is played where each person takes turns DM'ing around the table, picking up from where the last DM left off. It's a great mental exercise, and I've always had a blast with it in the past.

I have been working on my char (book got here a week ago). Stating is done, just need to get a short description and char history done and I should be good to go. Just out of curiosity, this modules uses the 1e greyhawk gods right?

I'll probably make the reservation tomorrow or Saturday. Don't worry if she's not sure if she's coming or not. I usually take however many people say they're coming for sure and add two.

Traditionally, two fewer then show up than said they would and we get no extras. Then the six people at our ten person table sit around, tell roleplaying stories and tell the waitress, "Those BASTARDS stood us up!"

I think this sounds like a lot of fun and I hope you get some takers. I think this would be a cool feature to have at every Game Day.

My friends and I usually write a "round-robin story" at our Christmas party every year. It is great fun and usually reveals the incredibly dirty minds of some of the more demure ladies in the group. God bless em'!

Correct.

Send me the character when you are done at henrythelesser at yahoo dot com. Can't wait to look him / her over.

So, nothing to do with Game Day, but I've got a mostly unrelated small confession to make...

Tonight my daughter wanted a "new scary story!" before bedtime. Somewhat at a loss, creatively speaking, I pulled some names from a recent source - this thread. Thus it was that Henry, die_kluge and Cthulhu's Librarian made an appearance in the "new scary story" tonight.

I won't get into all the gory details but let's just say that Henry wrought vengeance on die_kluge in the form of "the worst noogie EVER" in retaliation for having had his "long and luxurious nose hair" (each nostril of which was brushed sixty times a night according to her) burned out with a scented candle delivered by the shady Cthulhu's Librarian. If that all sounds gruesome, be assured that it was. Just be glad that you didn't have to see me running around in circles in the living room, acting like a Henry with his nose hair on fire.

Don't worry though, it had a happy ending. In fact, my little girl told me that Henry and die_kluge got married for a brief moment. Then she said, "Wait! They're both mans! Instead, Henry married a girl and die_kluge married a girl."

I'm sure your wives will be thrilled...

So, uh, sorry about that. I hope this doesn't permanently impair your image of me (or mine of you! ).
