Do I have a bid on a black shirt with my name on the back from NTRPG?

That place and time works for me.


RPG’s, D&D in particular has had a major influence in my life. It’s bonded me together with life long friends...it’s that bond in life not just as friends, but in our jokes, our mannerisms, and what we find funny. Invincible Overlord

It's a GO!
Thursday, 12:30 to 4:30, at Buca. Address is 35 N. Illinois--a very short walk.

I am undecided on how I will collect on this, although I am leaning towards good old cash.

If any of the Tier 2 hopefuls are going to be at GC, they can find me in the Auction or Tower of Gygax, money can exchange hands and you can take it home with you. By the same token, if you are not going to be there but have a friend who will be, simply state here in the site that is OK for them to pick up your copy.

I went off of Franks list and notes. Tier 1 is the players; Tier 2 is the two Alternates (who, as of this writing, don't seem likely to get in--no cnx yet), Tier 3 is all the ones that commit to a copy to potentially pick up at GC (not a necessity--we can mail for cost of mailing) and Tier 4 was to be those that want one after GC, if any were left. The Tier 4 cost will be $50.

Malc, if you and your wife, as well as the other Alternate, Ligmancer, want to come to the game and be the Peanut Gallery and eat with us at Buca, I have no problem with that whatsoever and would enjoy your company. The Pope Table seats 15, and my Res. is for 15; 10 players plus me makes 11, three of you make 14--NO SWEAT.

The way Frank had it compiled when he left, you and Ligmancer have dibs on no-shows. The pricing structure was such that it cost everybody the same; the lucky 10 got to play. I have no qualms about letting you three share in the fun (I might let you be an NPC...nah). If the Lucky Ten don't share my sentiment, please PM me and share your feelings.

As originally outlined here, there were going to be numbered copies set aside for EE. I have decided to make all 50 available and produce the others needed as I outlined in a previous post. I have always enjoyed being a part of Acaeum, and have formed many friendships through it; I would like to satisfy as many requests as possible without violating our stated intentions

Tim, if Doug and I can still get on the list for Tier 3 copies, stick us in there (Badmike and Scktrewhisp). If not, no sweat.  You guys have a great time gaming at Gencon this year!

Just a quick question on Gencon itself - I'm planning on driving down on Thursday morning, meeting up for the EE game that afternoon, and going to Gencon for the day on Friday. Do I need to register online in advance for tickets? I'm not planning on doing any events as such - I just want to wander around the halls and check everything out.

Do I need to get it sorted before I leave, or do I just buy a day pass on the door?

Regards
Mike

Look at the GenCon website to see if it might be cheaper in advance. Otherwise, walk-ups are never turned away.
