I am down for it. Cannot afford Indy so will have to bribe my dad for that.

I won’t have time for Indy this weekend.
And yes, if we are playing tomorrow i need to know today, so i can try and cram in as much sleep as possible tomorrow before we play.

I should be sleeping now, but can’t…and i got school tonight. Sigh…

Alright, so when are we playing? Thursday at 7:30pm EST (4:30pm/1630 PST)(sharp)? Are people looking to see Indiana Jones on opening night or is that a Friday event?

I need answers people!

Don’t mind picking up Cliff, but at the cost of gas these days he will need to start chipping in for gas the days i pick him up.

Nothing crazy, just $5 or so.

Completely understood. The only wrinkle (for this week anyway) is that John’s not around, so Cliff might need you as transportation this week. Not a major concern, but I thought I’d mention it.

I’d also like to solidify a day/time ASAP. I’m excited!

It’s starting to look like Thursdays are still the best bet, all things considered.

I am down with making sure that the game always starts exactly on time. Especially if we end up playing on a weeknight.

I may also play a bit more from home given the circumstances as they are. Until i switch to day work again, last thing i wanna be doing is driving here there and everywhere when all i want to do is go to bed.

So days i really need the sleep and to get to bed asap after the game i will play from home. If i can swing it otherwise i will go to Carl’s.

Like i said though, this should hopefully be temporary. I will hopefully switch jobs to something more agreeable for myself and the game in June after school is done. I really don’t want to stay at my current job any longer then i have too.

Just cause the game starts at an absolute time doesn’t mean that if you miss the start time you’ll be out of the game. It just means that if you’re late, even by a few minutes, you’ll miss some of the session. Furthermore, you will miss out on XP for the part of the session you miss.

You know, “blood death and vengeance” and all that.

Fridays and Saturdays are usually iffy as that is usually the do outings for groceries, visit family, etc. Any other day of the week I can arrange including sundays. So really I am pretty open. I can maybe even swing fridays if it really is more convenient for everyone.

I agree with Curt on enforcing in some way a start time. Considering our current Eberron game was ideally supposed to start around 7:30pm people just show up when they feel like it which means no point to a start time and usually around 8-8:30pm. So I really think it is not harsh at all.

As I said before if people wanna leave snacks for themselves here, books, character sheets, whatever makes gaming more convenient then by all means do so. It avoids arriving late in the first place and people then deciding they need to do a Couche Tard run which makes things even more delayed.

I understand where you are coming from but please don’t be suprised if you have to start the game with one or two members. I can only speak for myself, but there are nights that I might be walking through the door @ 7:30. And I don’t mind preparing muted but I don’t want to be kicked out for IRL circumstances.
