Despite not having any out-of-towners at our May session, we had our best attendance to date (10 total during the day). Hopefully we can capitalize on this momentum, return a few of the regulars to the table, and add a couple of new folks who have recently expressed interest.

Since Tom and Mike have big life changes coming up this fall, I'm hoping we can squeeze in a session into August. Please list days that you are more than 70% likely to be able to attend with XX, more than 30% likely to attend with an X, and days that you are unlikely to attend with nothing.

My schedule:

July 23
July 30 X
August 6 XX
August 13 X
August 20 XX
August 27 X
September 3 XX

I am quickly approaching a major life change, so my time for playtesting is limited. As I told Jeff, it will probably be best to plan this without taking me into consideration, and hopefully I would be able to stop in for part of the time.

Here's my schedule, the best I can tell:

July 23 - Short notice, but might be able to make part in the evening
July 30 - Probably wouldn't work too well, again might be able to stop in the evening
August 6 - Totally out
August 13 - Might be able to make some in the early afternoon
August 20 - Might be able to make some in the evening
August 27 - Probably totally out
September 3 - Might be able to make a good portion of this day

Finally sat down with my calendar, below is what we have shaping up so far, this could change. We are trying to schedule one weekend trip which could take any one of these, and the thing currently occupying the 20th might move, but it is unlikely. We'd be happy to host if the dates are amenable.
peace,
Tom

My schedule shuffled a little too, the 20th is now open. I edited my entry above so it is current.

peace,
Tom

edit ... again, just as soon as the 20th opened up, the 13th closed.

We're starting to coalesce on a date, it looks like August 27 is going to give us the most possible people, sowe'll start to lean in that direction unless someone feels strongly otherwise.

Also, since Jeff is having computer issues he requested I update his calendar, and Sept 3 is off the table for him.

peace,
Tom

ps. fanaka, we'll try to set up a local playtest on a weeknight in early August

I'd like to attend on the 27th. I have a board game I've been working on called "Venus Needs Men!" -- Gil helped playtest it at Ubercon last year. And of course I'll be happy to playtest other games. Sands of Time sounds interesting -- I love Civ and Age of Renaissance, even History of the World.

What time do you typically start and finish? Can you send me directions (from the south -- I'm in Westchester)?

Thanks,
John Velonis

The 27th is good for me. And I'd love to try out Venus Needs Men again; I was very impressed with it last time! (Great to see you on the boards, John!)

I should be pretty open, though August 20th I am attending GenCON and I do have to head out to San Jose at some point in the next month. So my availablity would look something like:

July 23
July 30
August 6 X
August 13 X
August 20
August 27 XX
September 3 X

Once the majority of you figure out a date, I will see what I can do to make it out. I would love to clean up Invasions:Tuatha De Danann and let you all give it a good old fashion designer beatdown! :)

OK Folks, let's lock this in. August 27, 2005. Put it on your calendars!

I'm excited at the number of folks we could potentially have.

Please Private Message me and send me your email address whereby I can send you driving directions and whatnot.

peace,
Tom

my apologies for the "bump" but I needed to remind folks who are expecting to attend on the 27th to pm me with their email address. I have a couple of these, but not as many as seem to be suggested by the thread.

Here's looking forward to a nice sized crew, perhaps our biggest yet.

peace,
Tom
