Pweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeease?

[CurlyKitGirl]

Crazy cat koorly?

>.>
In truth I only own one, but I have lots of cats I regularly play with and cuddle because they're cats. Also the two Bengali kittens are neglected I swear; they're always kicked out about six in the morning and let in after eleven.
And my two 'new' kittens look exactly like my Demon Cat and Jesse when they were kittens.
And they have two older cats who hang around and 'babysit' them, so they're mine too.

Okay, that does sound crazy. Never mind.

Bah humbug! Those kitteneyes don't work on me.
Cats, and kittens, are EVIL!.

To that I can only agree with this:

Noone is disputing that. But they're adorable all the same.

This is all the truth.

[factotum]

In truth I only own one

You mean, "I am only owned by one". *Dogs* have owners, cats have domestic staff.

[Castaras]

ROLLCALL PLEASE.

And such.

Fraid I'm a little busy nowadays to update posts (I'm either deep in gaming with friends or more often swamped with very enjoyable work).

and the facebook event https://www.facebook.com/events/529501787067247/

[Mercenary Pen]

Still need to confirm I have that weekend off from work, will let you know whether I can make it ASAP.

[--Lime--]

50/50 chance I can be there. Statistics can go up as well as down.

[Alarra]

*sigh* That weekend, and actually that whole month is really bad for us. Buuuuuuuuuuuuuuuut...we'll come to the next one. As long as it doesn't conflict with SE Trogland or gencon.

[lesser_minion]

Still pretty sure I can make it.

I will not be able to come to this one, as has been stated several times.
So you'll have to do without my two bags of holding boardgames, and unless someone else has a copy... No Nuclear War for this meet.

[Archonic Energy]

It's not a UKitP meet without Nuclear war...
*waves copy*
yes that one goes without saying.

7 wonders...
Sabeotuer...
Bang! is 7 plr...
I could bring BSG again...

[Castaras]

Leicester Sabres also has a copy of Nuclear Escalation, if we're stuck. However, we don't have any other nuclear war than that edition.

Exact list of games from Sabres is long. I'll see if I can get a proper list at some point.

[Totally Guy]

I should be coming too... I might be giving up on these as I didn't really feel all that welcome last time.

[Etcetera]

There'll always be a place at my table for blanket hobo.

[Strawberries]

But...but... I like you!
Please come?

Also, are I and Snow Leopard in the "definitely coming" list? Because we are definitely coming.

[factotum]

I never like to say I'm *definitely* coming because, tempting fate and all that, but I'm pretty sure I'll be there...

[GrlumpTheElder]

I know I told you at the Steampunk Market, but I'll say it here too, It's good to see you at the meetups. And I do really enjoy the Burning wheel games!


UPDATE RE THE GRLUMPANING OF LEICESTER
I have just been informed that I am required for a concert on the evening of Friday 30th November. This means that I shall no-longer be arriving then. Instead, I will be arriving on the morning of the 1st (snow permitting), most likely arriving by midday. Tickets will be booked and timings confirmed as soon as I talk to my accommodation.

I hope you'll change your mind - I like seeing you at the meet ups. =)

@V: \o/ - I still owe you a hug from the summer meetup. =3

[Lix Lorn]

I am leaning towards coming. Because kitty eyes. >_> But not sure.
All past evidence says when I say this, it means I will though... DXD

[Dallas-Dakota]

If everything goes as planned, I might actually be coming to my third UK meet-up, this summer.

[Serpentine]

Aw, sorry Guy If it helps, Hazyshade was also somehow left out of the group photo, too! And I know Qwaz likes you being there. *pokes Qwaz*

[Fredaintdead]

I might have to switch from "Definitely Coming" to "Might be Coming", due to workload and such. It's still very likely I'll be attending however. (as it stands, I'll probably be arriving sometime Friday evening and leaving Sunday morning).
On the topic of that, if anyone is willing to share a room at the Premier Inn with me, let me know, as that would be fantastic (helps cut the cost down a little).
I haven't booked anything yet, but there's other things (see above) that I'd prefer to sort out before I set things in stone.
As I said, odds are I'm still gonna be there, so no (or barely any) worries in that department.

When has snow ever affected a meetup?

[CurlyKitGirl]

He has a point. Sheffield anyone? That was a devil to get to, and I was only coming from Oxford. And poor old Eldpollard coming all the way from . . . Aberwiffwiff wasn't it?

[Castaras]

So I've seen in a few threads that quite a few of us who are going to UKitp are considering NaNoWriMo...

End of NaNo party on the 1st? I think a few from Leicester Gamesoc are doing this as well, so we can all celebrate or offer commiserations.

(Yeah, I'm thinking I'll try it. If it ends up that work gets too big for it, then I'll stop, but if the work load stays as it is now I'm pretty sure I can deal with it. And if needbe, I'll just go for some of my word count being the reports I have to write. )

Sounds like a plan- If you want we could always arrange a word war between us as a motivator...

[lesser_minion]

As I said before, if I can think up something cool to write about by the end of this month, I'll give NaNo a shot. If not, I won't.

[Lensman]

Can I participate by including chapters of an existing novel? I'm a third of the way through Sorrel Snowbound, and I could really do with writing 50,000 more words in November. Not sure if that counts, though...

I believe they have a "NaNo Rebels" category that would suit you...

(On the subject of rebels, here's something that might be of use as an extra for your Star Wars game at the meetup- access to a whole range of authentic sound effects)

[Sgt. Cookie]

I assume this is the best place to put it. We really need a thread for this sort of thing...


Anyway, from Monday 19th to Saturday 24th, I will be in the Little Shop Of Horrors play that my local Youth Theater is producing.

I will be three things: The disembodied 1970's style radio announcer at the very start (voice style isn't set in stone, though), a Wino (most of what I'll be doing on stage) and an interviewer (my only on stage speaking role). I will also be a part of the chorus, singing some songs.

If you want to see me, the address is: Bridge Lane, Bramhall, Stockport sk7 3ab. To book a ticket, you need to call: 439 0505 at any time.
