Hi guys, I have some super awesome news that I wanted to share with my online friends (and I'm fully aware of how lamesauce that sounds) and I was looking for the right place to do it.  I thought about the Random Stuff thread but then thought, I bet other people have good news they'd like to share sometimes too so...this thread has now been born.  I'm thinking fun and exciting things like graduations, new puppies, exciting moves, etc.  Super excited to hear about your good stuffs!

My show opens in 3 nights. I'm part of the ensemble for Big: The Musical. You may think this is a new show. Actually, it's been around for nearly 20 years. Who knew?

Anyway, excited about this because it'll be my first show with some pretty crazy choreography, and I haven't done anything like this before.

And, well, it's Big.

Congrats rae!

Kuildeous, do you get to tap dance on a giant piano?

Congrats.

I also got a job. Been temping ever since graduating in 2010, looking for someone to take me on permanently. A few permanent jobs came up where I'd been temping for a month and I applied and got one. Today is my second day but so far it's pretty boring. First week is our induction but I've been working there for over a month already so it's pretty pointless from my position, but there are other new people so it makes sense for them. Never mind. It's permanent and I get paid a salary rather than an hourly wage for the first time in forever.

Nope, I get to lift the lid off the giant piano for the two to dance on. The original plan was to have a plexiglass piano built that lights up. Best-laid plans and all, but they fell through. So, we have a painted piano. It still looks cool. I imagine that a Broadway budget made the piano really awesome.

Well, I started my new job today, but it isn't that exciting since I was already working here during my previous job.
They just liked me so much they decided they wanted to hire me directly instead of paying my previous employer way too much to hire me.

I haven't been keeping up to date in the forums as much. Details, man. I'll be at GenCon.

Oh, and congrats.

It's not officially announced yet, which is why I can only jump up and down with excitement in anonymity currently.

I don't suppose you can give us a really quick blurb about basic mechanics?

Congrats!  And also congrats to those of you moving from temp to permanent jobs!

Honestly, at the moment I'm not 100% what's okay to talk about and what's not, because of the licensing. I promise I would love to ramble about it for hours, and as soon as it's officially announced, no one will be able to stop me.
It has dice! And tokens! And spaces! And a rulebook!
Also, once I figure out what booth number it'll be at, I'll put that up also.

Sounds like a clone of Settlers of Catan.

What about company name? Will there be a booth in the dealer hall?

Licensing... does that mean it's a game for an existing brand/franchise?  Or just generic licensing?

Let's all ask more questions he probably can't answer!  :D

You know guys, white doesn't work very well when the forum backround isn't white.

Still not white. Can see even without quote.
I've seen some forums where you can only see it in a quote.

If I squint I can see it (when not in a quote, of course). But congrats Drab! Make sure to keep us posted (on odd-numbered replies of course)!

Might as well post this here instead of the VLA thread on forum games. But my wife and I are expecting our first child at the beginning of August. We are having a girl. Pretty excited about it.

One name we were seriously considering was "yuma." My wife and I both loved it as the name of the street we were living on--hence my choosing it as my f.ds name--but ultimately I found it kinda weird to give our child a name that I had night killed and lynched people with... (not to mention Saboteuring, Swindling and Torturing.)
