Does that mean that we're not going to meet you, Cyzzane? A shame. I was looking forward to meeting the pair of you! It is always interesting meeting other gaming couples.

Hmm

Silver Crusade 3/5

Not this time around :) I'll plan for next year or a summer trip. :D all sorts of stuff to get ready for the school year.

I would rather they came when it was nice out. Better chance of convincing them to come to our fine state a second time!

Are you implying that February in Minnesota is not nice? It's been years since a snowstorm has trapped me at the convention hotel past Sunday.

I seem to recall helping unload cars without a jacket on this year.

Yeah, it's been years since the weather at Con of the North was bad enough to kill you!

Years and years

Heck, last few have been positively balmy!

So does that mean there's going to be snow at Skal?

Silver Crusade 3/5

Actually, living on the surface of the sun as we do... Snow actually sounds quite nice!

I will just be getting back from Hawaii though and I imagine my teachers would cry if I turned around and took more vacation days.

Liberty's Edge 5/5

I lived on the surface of the sun (Bakersfield, CA) for 2-1/2 years, and I love living back in the Midwest. I however do not like snow.

Grand Lodge 4/5 5/55/55/55/5 ***** Venture-Agent, Minnesota

Snow is nice.

The weather at Con of the North on Friday last year was bitter cold. Loading and unloading that morning was pretty horrid. But usually February in Minnesota is pretty nice. We usually get our first warm up that time of year. Come out to Con of the North as well if you like!

Minnesota in September is lovely. It's usually some of the finest weather we get, and the trees turn colors... Minnesota in September can absolutely seduce you!

Hmm

Alright, I threw some money at the screen to register. (That way at least you have my funds for a good cause.)

I will probably be flying in on Friday and out Sunday afternoon, since my lovely bride will have the car that weekend.

So: I just need to find some crash space before I can volunteer to TPK run some tables. Anyone willing to sub-let part of their room?

Liberty's Edge 5/5

If you and TOZ don't mind sharing a bed, you can have that space in my wife and my room.

Can we get a rollaway? I'm a cuddler and TOZ (or Mrs. TOZ, in absentia) might object.

Shadow Lodge 4/5

Hey, don't make this weird. :P

It's only weird if it's a standing offer, right? Or something like that?
Need to recheck the rules...

What happens in Minnesota stays in Minnesota? IDK my BFF Jill.

Let me check on air fare and I'll get back to you via PM.

Grand Lodge 4/5

I'm signed up to run Serpent's Rise on Friday and The Traitor's Lodge if anyone wants to sit with me. Looking to get in on the season 8 offerings I have yet to spoil, as well as The Cosmic Captive.

Liberty's Edge 1/5

Hey guys, just registered. and I know I can't signup for stuff yet but I can't seem to get at the list of events.

Liberty's Edge 5/5

Actually you can register for games and see a list of events.

I'm on my phone or I'd link you. But check out Link

And the top event is Skal Con. We have links inside that to our registration app and Google spreadsheet for signing up to GM.

Liberty's Edge 5/5

Ok, home now. Check out this link.

I keep getting the following message:

We're sorry, but something went wrong.

If you are the application owner check the logs for more information.

Liberty's Edge 5/5

I was getting that on my phone as well, but when I checked on my PC last night it worked fine. I'll send the note to our developer to check on why it's erroring on phones.

Dark Archive 4/5 5/5 ****

Problem should be fixed now. Simple nil check missed. Unfortunately only affected users that were not logged in. Was introduced yesterday afternoon.

Dark Archive 4/5 Venture-Lieutenant, Minnesota—Twin Cities Metro East

I have an Air Bed I can lend if needed. My extra Room is filled by the ND VL's though. :D

Dark Archive 5/5 5/5

Hey everyone!

We are so close to the Skal Con! Thursty! Clinton Boomer! Food drive!

I am humbled by the number of truly awesome people who are making the trek to Minnesota to be a part of our growing little tradition. You all are great people and why I am proud to be a member of this community. Thank you

I look forward to seeing everyone in a few weeks!

Back in now. May just have been my location.

Woo!

Everyone! Go here to pre-purchase as many raffle tickets as you want for Friday night's special tables!

We are raffling off a chance to play Hands of the Muted God, a retired season zero scenario, for credit GM'd by the author, Clinton Boomer!

But wait! There's more!

We are also raffling off the opportunity to play True Dragons of Absalom GM'd by the author, Thurston Hillman!

Each ticket costs just $5. You may purchase as many tickets as you like because they are good the whole weekend, not just for Friday night's tables.

I also want to remind everyone of our food drive, new this year. As Fall rolls around, Tubman's transitional housing will be packed full and can use all the help we can give them. Please bring as many non-perishable food items as you can for donation. Desired items would be things like canned fruits, vegetables, soup, and dry goods (pasta, rice, etc.). As always with food items, we can only accept unopened items in their original packaging.

I toured Tubman's transitional housing space last year and saw the need up close. It is real and everything we do makes a difference: every dollar donated, every can of soup, every box of mac and cheese. It all makes a child's life better. It makes a mother's life better. It gives the people there hope that life is getting better and will continue getting better.

Give. Please.

Thank you.

Two weeks? This happens in two weeks?

SO looking forward to this!

Whip that liver into shape!

We suggest a strict regimen of malt liquor and corn whiskey.

And on the whiskey note -- about 1 1/3 liters of bourbon are currently infusing with a full pint of bacon fat!

That's my secret, Captain. I'm never ready.

Obviously what I've been doing wrong all this time.

Should I reserve some kegs of Surly?

Feels like I have this guy named Illidan yelling his signature line at me.

"YOU. ARE. NOT. PREPARED!!!"

[/WoWref]

A number of raffle tickets acquired, may they be helpful...

Dark Archive 4/5 5/5 ****

You'll never be ready for this much AWESOMENESS!

That being said, time is growing near!

Shadow Lodge 5/5

My favorite part? Listening to the description of the clown car hotel rooms.

Dark Archive 5/5 5/5

Little over one week remains before we get down to business and raise a ton of money.

I am positively giddy with anticipation.

Dark Archive 5/5 5/5

ONE WEEK REMAINS!

Scenarios delivered to accounts checked with care, with thoughts that Saint THUNDERLIPS! soon would be there.

There is a dome that needs shaving, with scruffy cheeks to match. The razors are sharpened to leave none but a scratch.

Three birthdays! One unfortunate anniversary! Skal Con promises to be an exciting adventure in fund raising.

I will see you all in a week!

Silbeg, Fractal Law, and that Kapperson kid.

I leave it up to you to determine who turns 50 this year.

I gotta get a haircut.
