Curse the fact that I don't have any money so I can't go over to join you all.

THE FLIGHT IS BOOKED. THERE IS NO TURNING BACK NOW. :eek:
I'll be arriving at DCA at 17:00 on the Thursday and flying back again at 15:00 on the Monday.
Archie, is there any message you'd like me to pass on to the Hippie while I'm over there?

DCA not BWI??? where are you going via. :smallamused:
depends of if you can "deliver" it

Re: Baltimore/DC Area Meetup 2012
I'm staying with the absolutely wonderful Monkey Business and DCA is the most convenient for her to get to. So I'll be flying out of Heathrow and changing at Newark or something. It's about 13 hours in total. z.z

Re: Baltimore/DC Area Meetup 2012
UPDATE!:
Hippie has this fantastic idea to turn Red Dragon Inn into a sort of Beer University drinking game. The concept is basically that the Drink Deck will correspond to several actual beverages (they may or may not be thematically appropriate, we're still working on what will be what). So, for example, at the end of your turn, if you draw Dirty Dishwater, you may be forced to drink something like Milwaukee's Best, but if you draw Orcish Rotgut, you'll get to have a drink of an IPA. Awesome, right?
So, this brings up a couple of questions. First, if we do this, who all would be interested? Second, if we get a huge response, would people be willing to contribute to the beer fund to help make this happen? (Don't worry, the vast quantities of homebrew will be included in the setup, so that's several varieties we won't have to procure from an actual beer store.) Third, Krade, if we get a HUGE response, would you be willing to bring your RDI's so that we can run two games simultaneously?

Wouldn't Pabst be more appropriate for this one? Or are you reserving that for something that's even less appealing?
-
Re: Baltimore/DC Area Meetup 2012
Believe it or not, Mango, Pabst is better than "Milwaukee's Beast". :smallcool:
Fun story, on my 21st birthday, The Beast was the first beer I bought from a liquor store. Back then I had no idea and the purpose was quantity over quality. This stuff was cheaper than soda. That was also the LAST time I ever bought it. :smallcool:

First, Yes I would be interested, it sounds fun and would force me to actually try to enjoy beer (Something that I semi-want to actually do. Horizon broadening thing, I guess?:smallconfused:)
Second, yes.
Third, that sounds like something I could do, yes.
Edit: Largely unrelated to anything, but I'm still bummed that I'm only gonna have a couple sit downs with the new XCOM before I'm gone for four days. Oh man that game is gonna be so awesome. It just HAD to come out a couple days before the meetup:smallannoyed:

I approve of this idea, but as I am generally not a beer drinker I would not participate. Would be willing to chip a bit to help pad out the drinks fund, tho.

Re: Baltimore/DC Area Meetup 2012
Although I'm not so much of beer-guy, count me in for the game. Sounds like fun!
-
Re: Baltimore/DC Area Meetup 2012
Consider me in. This may go very, very badly. BUT I WANT IT TO HAPPEN!
What kind of quantities are we talking on the imbibing? I haven't played RDI before, so...? Anyway, if we are talking an entire beer each turn, that could be problematic for those of us who are "lightweights", as my husband would avow.
-
Re: Baltimore/DC Area Meetup 2012
I would be interested. I haven't had a beer-cation in awhile.

Heavens no, we have little sample glasses. The objective is to taste and learn about lots of beers, not get completely smashed....though it's possible that this will happen.

Flashing is likely if smashing occurs. Fair warning.

Re: Baltimore/DC Area Meetup 2012
It's unfortunate that there isn't really a reliable way to instantly reduce how drunk you are. Because if the cards came up right, someone could be in trouble.

And I had you pegged as being such a shy and reserved individual. Unless we're talking about Gryff here?

Re: Baltimore/DC Area Meetup 2012
PS I might have to sleep over if complete smashedness occurs. :smalltongue:
-
Re: Baltimore/DC Area Meetup 2012
Please bear in mind folks, that "drunkenness" is not the objective here. It may be a by-product however... :smallamused:
I feel this might also be a decent means to decide "I'm done playing this game... lets play Kubb!" :smallbiggrin:
De: I am ridiculously happily married, so "flashing" is unnecessary...... You may need to keep some semblence of control if you are to beat up nazis afterwards.

Thanks. I came THIS close to spitting root beer all over my laptop.

Re: Baltimore/DC Area Meetup 2012
Smashing leads to flashing which leads to splashing?

Re: Baltimore/DC Area Meetup 2012
Soccer schedules are out. And as I expected, I'll need to decline once again. My team has two games that weekend. I look forward to reading about all the fun I'm missing out on...
