BE ADVISED: The doors to PBJS will be locked all weekend. Please knock on one of the conference room windows to either side of the door, and someone will let you in. Or try the doorbell thing. I think it works.

Space is available both Saturday and Sunday (thanks John Harper!!) The space is free, but perhaps you could buy John a beer. Really...he won't mind.

Local Accomodations


Carl, Chris B and Matthew are all staying at The Warwick (401 Lenora St,800-203-3232). Best cool hotel we could find in Belltown for the money.

If anyone needs crash space, post here and perhaps someone can accomodate:

Because Jackson is coming in Saturday and I want to make I play The Roach with him, I'm gonna put a stake in the ground and say that I will be facilitating a game of the Roach on Sunday morning. All others are welcome of course!!

Hey, this is J. Bodewell,

So I will be there, with my 13 year old son both Saturday & Sunday!

I'm not sure what time we'll get there yet, I assume probably not til after 11 on Saturday.

I'll be up for playing most anything, but I always look forward to IaWA.

I'd also be up for running:
"In the Age of Chivalry" home-brewed crazy easy story-game featuring Arthurian Legends.
Star Wars story-game
or
"To the Moon!" using the same way simple story-gaming as above but this time all the players are Victorian Adventures trying to be the first one to make it to the moon! (getting back is optional).

Also, Ogre and my friend Deke may be interested in coming as well.


REMEMBER:
THE SEATTLE SEAFAIR TORCHLIGHT PARADE IS GOING ON SATURDAY NIGHT!

This will make getting into and out of downtown a HUGE pain on Saturday night. It's also going to screw up parking. Be warned.

I put down 3:16 for the Sat night slot, but I can move that to Sat afternoon if that works better.

I just like saying "xenocidal space marines..."

I'd love to game, but I was expecting something less "formal".

I don't know if I can really afford another con at this time. No more than $15 would be my budget.

cdr8 4 hour slots please? 0 Jul 5 2008, 12:43 AM EDT by cdr8
Thread started: Jul 5 2008, 12:43 AM EDT  Watch
Would it be possible to make the slots Saturday 9-1, 2-6, 8-11 (with the room available to 12 for people who want a 4 hour slot at the end, as long as everyone knows up front), and Sunday 9-1 (with the option of people starting at 10 if they only want 3 hours) and 2-5 or 6? Breaking Saturday afternoon into 2 2-hour slots as well as 1 4-hour slot might be good, or else putting the two-hour slots at the end of either day, for people who want to leave earlier.
