Looking like Michelle will be able to make it. Bumping her up to 90%.

(Not entirely sure what time we'll leave and stuff like that yet.)

I got bored of messing with the song tournament, so I decided I'd try to compile the request/can-bring lists... pretty messy at the moment, but Thesp can clean it up since he's the one with all the games. ;)

It'd be nice to have some of the better fillers available as well (For Sale, Diamant/whatever it's called now, the other one that keeps changing names...).

Will do. Hey MeMe, can you bring Get Bit!?

Also, MoS, I'll be happy to bring Puerto Rico, and I can borrow Arkham Horror (and an expansion or two) to bring, no problem.

MoS List:

As much as I love Diplomacy, I don't think I'd want to take 4+ hours out of our limited time to play it. (Same for Twilight Imperium.)

Coloretto would be a good light game to have (and I've never played it, just observed in Mish Mash).

I enjoyed Cranium Hoopla (and I'm sure Michelle would enjoy it as well).

I'd be up for a game of Illuminati as well. Haven't played it in... 7 years or so, heh.

Category 5/Slide 5 is the "other one", apparently. Slide 5 is a stupid name, btw. :)

Happy to bring Get Bit! It's much more fun when you run it anyway, Thesp (I've not yet mastered the wailing sound-effects).

I think if I stayed up all weekend and then slept in the car on the way back, Michelle would probably kick me out and leave me in Oklahoma somewhere.

(But I'll probably stay up the first night, sure.)

Anyway, we need to think of something
else
ridiculous to do.

Oh, also, I was going to ask: I believe you mentioned a dog/multiple dogs, Flay? You don't have any cats, do you? (I am quite allergic, though I can bring a mask and pop allergy pills all weekend if necessary. Which is probably worth doing anyway, so that pj at some point use a mask tell to try to get me lynched.)

WOOHOO! :D

Now we can get a proper 5-player game of RftG with you, without running out of cards and unfairly robbing you of the explore phase on the last turn. ;)

No, although we used to and there's still some former hairs lying around. The house is mostly hardwood though so there shouldn't be much dander left after almost two years. Bring your pills, but I don't expect it'll be a big problem.

Speaking of which, is anybody who's coming have dietary restrictions (veg*, no dairy, etc)? We're planning on eating on the cheap (CostCo, here we come) except when/if we decide to go out, but we can accommodate most things if we know ahead of time.

Pooks, are you seriously coming? :D I'll probably sleep minimally, though I'm getting old and gray. ;)

Huzzuh! This thread just got a lot more awesome over a few days! :D We get Pooks
and
Michelle! w00t!

Also, mith, wearing a mask is not a
per se
scum tell. But if it results in a practically unchanging facial expression (such as, say, abject terror) then I would be happy to lynch you for that reason... *squints*
