We are hoping you run an Acaeum only adventure during the week, Al, but if you want to run a con adventure Saturday morning has a 8-12 slot if you can keep it down to 4-5 hours. Also should be lots of pickup games Friday night...

Yeah, but I might suck at it. While I have DM'd a few times in the past year (Gary Con I was my "coming out" party; one hour slots in the Tower were easy, the 4-5 hours there made me feel I may not have lost the touch, I have not played as a PC since my playtest sessions in LG. I appreciate the offer; we'll see. You want a slot in one of mine?

How many of you Brits are going to be there? At least two, right? Do you get as much of kick out of listening how we use "Amerlish" (American English) as I do listening to you guys? GB Shaw had it right when he said â€˜England and America are two countries separated by the same language',.

Should be fun.

It shows 51 are registered. Why does it still only show 48 names? You gotta add them in manually?

And lots of people tend to cancel at the last minute.

mike, yes that sounds good to me. are you on about before or after the con thing for an adventure? if so, yes i could do that. i will sort something.

i am thinking a TSR module for that, Al stylee

as for the Sat Morning, is that 8am-12pm? or 8-12 players...let me know and i will see what i can do...

KOP - that's a 'yes' to adding them manually... everything on the site is manual even the number.... I apparently increased it from 48 to 51, then I added the names to all the events they signed up for, but forgot to put them on the main "attendees" page... so I fixed that...

Maybe next year I'll have a more organized page to work with... been looking at a site management package so I can designate people to handle different areas, and some things can be a bit more auto magic....

i think you will find that nobody will really care that much with regards to being good at this or that or whether you suck at this or that.

i just like my games to be fun and enjoyable and a good bunch of folk will always achieve that.

8-12 in the morning....as many players as you figure you can handle. Get back to me on PM or email and we can plan something out.

We'll see how things shape up for either an after or before con adventure...

You've done good, accept a little praise.

Family reunion just canceled. That increases my chances of making it.

Nice, 150 copies

That's 90 more than the 12.5 gencon release. Anyway is assures that everyone can get one or 2

Put me down for 2

You guys are going to be there, so just buy one when you are there

Don't expect me to remember who wants what between now and then... I'll just be checking off who bought how many at the Con to keep tabs on the 2 per rule
