Songs learned, learning songs, songs added that should have been on there long ago. I'm feeling a bit more relieved that this is going to be a fun band session.
Question - is there truly no cell access out there? If not, is there a long distance line that we will have access to? I have to call and say good night to my girls:)
We have a land line with national calling you can use in the castle.
I have also setup the wifi to turn on from 12:05am - 4:55am when we have unlimited data through our satellite provider so you hosers can get some connections with the real world for a few hours.

Also verizon 3g is off and on here, I dont know if there is any signal for voice though.
Ooooohhhhhh YYyyyeeeeaaahhhh! I have my shipping info on my copy of Mice & Mystics due to the castle 10/26!
So I am really excited/anxious about tomorrow. Is there any particular games you reccomend to someone who has never really played any of these games before?
If you're not on the road yet, you may want to toss a sweatshirt or a light jacket into your bag. Weather.com is showing today's high at 81 degrees, tomorrow's at 64 degrees, Saturday's at 50 degrees, and Sunday's at 49 degrees, with lows in the 30's.
When I said "Winter is coming" a few posts back, I didn't mean quite so soon.
There's also a 50% chance of precipitation, so that might put a damper (get it?) on our Fire Pit plans.
Then again, this IS Ohio, so I'm not vouching for the accuracy of these reports. As the local saying goes, "If you don't like the weather, hang around five minutes, it will change."

Are there any games that you *have* played that you really like? Even PC or console games?
I have an important question!
So regarding alcohol sales - will the pub strictly be a cash bar (in which case, I will need to get some cash) or will we be able to run a tab?
Beaten to it by the bird.
But yes, after you check in with Oily for the convention itself, you'll check in with Mono or myself. At that point you'll have the option to open an account with the castle. If you do, you'll get a nifty sticker for your name tag that will let the servers know you have a bar tab.

I have played ticket to ride and Carcassone on my iPad and those are both fun.

I have a crappy Gamestop mic stand I use for my Rock Band mic--would that work?
I'm not sure, I'll get back to you once I get the mic this evening.

Curse my skimming! Nevermind!
Can't wait for it to be tomorrow--looking forward to meeting all you crazies!

Meh, I'll pack it regardless--I've just got me going down so there is plenty of room in the car for stuff.

Those are both excellent intro games. I might recommend Quarriors (a quick dice/deck-building game) and Lords of Waterdeep (a worker placement game in the same extended family as Carcassone). To be honest, though, there will be tons of games that people are playing for the first time, so you won't feel out of place.

This. This is awesome.

It's like a Steam Sale, but with booze!

Much gifting will be had this weekend then! Is there a drink equivalent of SotMC?

More than you know, my friend, more than you know!
Edit:
Here's the actual sticker that will be on your nametag if you open a tab.

Yes. Dogfish Head Tweason'Ale. I don't have a whole lot, thankfully. But if there were ever a drink equivalent of Pony Rolling someone, that would be it.
I am pretty sure that is more then 50/100
I am thinking 80/100

After a few drinks it'll look like 50/100 I'm sure
Or maybe 100/50?

Shhh. That's my favorite part of that image.

Thank you Minarchist!
And it was totally intentional too. Had nothing to do with a sloppy Photoshopping job in order to make the image fit onto the labels....
I probably won't do much drinking, but I'll open a tab just to have that sticker.
This is super late and half-assed, but that's how my life is this week. I was at work 10 hours ago, got back to work 3 horus ago, and am hoping I'll find the time to print character sheets before tomorrow. Weeeeeeeeeee!
Please pass this around to any other RPG team members who you think won't be monitoring the thread.
---- Zenke RPG Funtime Highlights ----
1: Characters will be pre-provided. Bring dice if you want to, but dice will also be provided.
2: Sessions will take 2 hours or less. Some segments of the session are actually mini-games instead of combat, plus RP.
3: Session scheduling will be finalized tomorrow once all boots are on the ground. The first session is scheduled for tomorrow evening. That session will be filled by the team eager to play that has all four members there. If there's an RPG team that already knows it will have all four members there at ~3-4pm, please PM me.
4: You will be goblins.
5: There will be singing.
Thanks everyone.
It's quiet in this thread. Too quiet.
