I left my games at home since I was missing dominion at a friends' and everything else I own is really long to play-- I hope people are bringing games for today!

I just got here. There doesn't appear to be anyone in the upstairs lounge...

jsh357 · « **Reply #207 on:** July 12, 2014, 05:15:39 pm »

bringing my games is proving that it might be more cumbersome than expected; will there be enough sets for the amount of people without me bringing mine?

AdamH · « **Reply #208 on:** July 12, 2014, 06:45:16 pm »

There seem to be plenty of games around, we're playing mostly dominion though (imagine that)

jsh357 · « **Reply #209 on:** July 12, 2014, 07:56:11 pm »

My flight is heading out now. Will see you guys tomorrow.

Hey everyone! Just a quick post here because we're in the middle of a 7-person game of Cosmic Encounter! The meetup has gone better than I possibly could have imagined. I'll have more photos from today up later (probably Monday or later), but for now, here's a picture of what's going on right now:

clockwise starting with green shirt: liopoil, a non-f.ds member, Axxle, TA, and EFHW. Not pictured: mcmc (getting a refill) and Voltaire (taking this picture)

Fun facts from this game: Axxle is a parasite, and TA and I agreed to Negotiate instead of him getting me that beer from the blitz game.

ashersky · « **Reply #211 on:** July 12, 2014, 11:08:44 pm »

TA is redheaded? I never would have guessed!

Voltaire · « **Reply #212 on:** July 12, 2014, 11:44:01 pm »

What happens when six Mafia addicts (with +1 friend) play Cosmic Encounter? The game enters its fourth hour, that's what.

Axxle · « **Reply #213 on:** July 12, 2014, 11:54:10 pm »

I blame/thank Hate!

Witherweaver · « **Reply #214 on:** July 12, 2014, 11:54:52 pm »

We should do this in New York

Witherweaver · « **Reply #215 on:** July 12, 2014, 11:58:38 pm »

Not convinced EFHW is a girl. Could be a guy with one of those feminine hair things!

(I don't known what they're called. Clip? It's probably clip.)

Jimmmmm · « **Reply #216 on:** July 13, 2014, 03:59:51 pm »

I hope you're having fun!

Are you referring to each other by your real names or usernames?

Axxle · « **Reply #217 on:** July 13, 2014, 04:02:52 pm »

Both, since we have a slight mix of non forumers.

Tombolo · « **Reply #218 on:** July 13, 2014, 07:09:38 pm »

This was really great! Definitely gotta do it again some time.

Twistedarcher · « **Reply #219 on:** July 13, 2014, 08:45:12 pm »

This was a lot of fun, and it was great getting to meet so many cool people. Thanks once again to Voltaire for organizing this!

jsh357 · « **Reply #220 on:** July 13, 2014, 08:55:57 pm »

We made it home. Had a great time today, hope a repeat event can happen some day. Props to Adam bailing me out after failing to bring my sets.

Axxle · « **Reply #221 on:** July 13, 2014, 08:58:16 pm »

Leaving on a jet plane, don't know when I'll be back again, but it was fun!

Dominion, Cosmic, Avalon, Hanabi, Room 55, and a whole bunch of other games were played. Great fun with great people.

The venues that Voltaire got were great, and it looked like everyone had an incredible time. It was cool putting a face and body to a bunch of you. It seems like meet was a great first success.

If anyone finds themselves in San Diego, look me up!

This was a ton of fun, I'm just sorry I could only make it for one of the days. Safe travels for everyone still on their way back home!

Kirian · « **Reply #223 on:** July 13, 2014, 09:28:35 pm »

I think it's truly awesome that you guys (and girls) were able to get this together!

I CAN'T TELL!!!

On the serious side, the fiancé and I have decided to crash at her place at purdue rather than try to drive all the way home tonight, so you'll have to wait until tomorrow until you can see the video.
