Re: UKitP XII - On the twelfth Meetup of Christmas...
So, er, I might actually be able to make this meetup.

Re: UKitP XII - On the twelfth Meetup of Christmas...
Looks like the Star Wars game is in demand...
Realistically, I can't handle more than five or at most six players - more than that and characters end up getting left out of the action or the game becomes too muddled.
There was unfinished business at the end of the Bradford scenario. Calya, who paid Amasa to betray Koorly, is dead (very dead) - now Koorly and Amasa need to sort out their differences. This really means we need the five PCs from Bradford - Archie, Hamish, Curly, Grlump and Thufir. (Complicating matters, Canraki, Ku's character, is with them, but Canraki can be incapacitated pretty easily - sorry, Ku!).
I can probably add one more PC into the mix - if the Succubus is content to drop out, that just leaves Mercenary Pen and Captain Spanner. Ummm - thermal detonators at dawn, gentlemen?
Re: UKitP XII - On the twelfth Meetup of Christmas...
Uhm, Lensman and people with nut allergies: how do you feel about almonds? Because I can make a kickass chocolate and almond cake, and I'd love to bring it.

I'm usually okay with marzipan, but straight almonds I tend to avoid just in case. Don't let me stop you bringing it, though - I have long since learned not to impose my strangenesses upon others. <Stop laughing in the background, Cassie>

*is suddenly eaten by a Rancor whilst reaching for the explosives* I think Capt. Spanner said something about already having a character, which makes less work for you- so I'll let him take the slot.
Doesn't stop me from wistfully hoping that a second session is created (though I won't try and force you by any means)

My own allergy is mostly to peanuts, and almonds are usually okay for me. I tend to work on the principle that as long as there are things that I can eat, it doesn't matter too much if there are a few things I need to avoid (which I have plenty of practice doing from bring and share meals at churches down the years).

That sounds fine. If you're booking the hotel, what sort of time are you planning to get to Leicester? I'm not sure I want to make a habit of coming to meetups and having to carry all of my luggage around for the first few hours.

Re: UKitP XII - On the twelfth Meetup of Christmas...
Got my timetable today - lucky coincidence, Archie, the friday you arrive is the first friday with a 2pm finish instead of 5pm.
But yeah, on the 30th I'll happily wander down to the train station for chatting and games.

Love how this thread just tends to become notes for own use rather than being sensible and writing them down elsewhere.
But when have Britlanders been known for their common sense.

Ooh, excellent, my arrival time's about four or so.
So general assumption for Friday afternoon is:
arrive
check in
pub
various runs back and forth between pub, train station and the Premier Inn (is it that?) until either dinner or we get kicked out or other plans happen?
There will be gossip and games. I'm assuming. For all I know we could be glum Bessie's and do nothing but stare at our drinks in an oppressive silence.
(Notes for self:
Archie is owed two drinks
Succubus is owed one drink
Thu/Tas (I forget) is owed one drink)
ION:
Anyone heard back from the Freds about this meetup? Because chances are Fifty-Fredededededed and I would be catching the same trains.
Grlump, go poke Fred until he says "Ow!"

Did I buy you a drink? I assume Tasroth didn't, since he tends not to buy alcohol for people, but I don't remember buying you one either. Though I did want to get you drunk if possible, so I may have done.

Alternative plan: Everyone who has Fred on facebook, poke him on there. See if he gets really confused as to why he's being poked by all the Playgrounders at once.
Edit: He's online, and he just immediately poked me back. We need to wait until he goes offline and then all get him in a co-ordinated strike! (Or I could direct him to the thread, but where would be the fun in that?)

Well, this particular Fred is likely coming, he just needs to sort things out.
On the topic of that:
Anyone willing to possibly split a room at the local Premier Inn with me before I sort things out so I know what I'm doing? I don't snore to the best of my knowledge.

Re: UKitP XII - On the twelfth Meetup of Christmas...
Any history students/buffs/related-area people going to be at the meetup? If I can come there's a game I'm considering bringing, but it'll be a surprise.

Oooh! Surprise history-related games.
How long's the game? Because while I am interested (a lot) I tend to play one long game and then shorter ones.
Eh.
Put me down for it anyway if you're coming. But bear in mind I'll be playing a Star Wars game, so if it clashes I'll back out and let another person play.
