Harpo, Ccesarano, Abu are you coming to this? If so, I can split it out into two rooms of 4/4, and still have room for a few more people.
Nah. I wouldn't be able to make the weekday. Alas!
I look forward to reading about the adventures, though.
Aw, that sucks that the escape room isn't accessible. I'm perfectly happy to have her join for the Chinatown crawl though!
I'm probably getting out of work a touch too late to make it over by 6:15 (things have been a bit nutty in the office) but I'll be there to meet you guys post escape! Just tell me where to go, and I'm game for the rest of it that night!

I can aim for 6:45 if that works better for you? Looks like we'll be just about exactly at 6 people
Make it 6:30 and it should work out. I'm coming from 50 Rock, and if they try to keep me late I'll just punch them. #modelemployee

Looks like 6:45 is a better time, actually, in terms of the schedule for the various rooms. The John Doe room, at
http://www.escapegamesnyc.com/ has a 6:45 slot.
It looks like the theme is something along the lines of investigating a murder house before the murderer comes home. This work for people?
Bonus, if this one works out, is that I can get a Groupon for it, so it'll bring it down to $20/person, I think, instead of closer to $30.
Sure!
Works for me!
Awesome! We're in
Ok, I'll book it tonight, then!

Yay! Thanks for checking out the Groupon. That's not bad at all. I'm super pumped to meet you all!
Ideally we should get to the Room Escape 15 minutes early, so let's aim for 6:30 - it's at this one:

Sorry for the radio silence... Mrs. Abu and I will be more than happy to meet up after you all solve the mysteries and get out of the room. Point us in the right direction and we will meet you.
So, I was thinking: how do we want to coordinate all this? Forums are cool, but we should probably exchange contact info so that we can make sure everyone is in touch?
I know that when I went to PAX East a couple years ago we made good use of the GroupMe app. It seemed pretty easy to use and worked well. Should we take a look at that?
Good call on GroupMe - I've made the group - Abu, you're the only person I had friended in GroupMe so far, I think:
Here's the link to join:
https://app.groupme.com/join_group/2...
Have fun everyone! I demand expect pictures!
It has already gotten off to a weird start!
Yay!
If you guys are hitting up touristy stuff tomorrow, such as Rockefeller Center, let me know and we can do lunch while I hide from work responsibilities!
So, when and where are we meeting tomorrow?

Ah, it's in the GroupMe, but I'll post here, too - The goal is to meet at The Grey Dog Cafe at 244 Mulberry St at 2:00 - we're also going to pick up Mooosicle at some point after 3:00, but he'll coordinate via the GroupMe, or by texting me
I haven't logged onto the GroupMe. My train doesn't get in until 3, and I have to drop stuff off at my friend's house, so...
It was great to meet you all last night. Hope you have a great day today and a safe trip home.
That was a really fun day
