Miss_Tessa_Melissa | 88 comments I'm in for games! It doesn't matter to me if its for the book meet up or separate.

Sarah (sflanagan19) | 127 comments I'm up for games as well as a meet-up! Depending on how many people are interested in playing, it might be better to do a book discussion separately--if a whole bunch of people show up to play games, we might need to split up to play a couple of games, which would make having a book discussion more difficult...


message 353: by Emily (new)

Emily | 266 comments Okay Im going to try for a separate date and reserve us a table. When i get confirmation I'll put the details here and make an event.

Emily | 266 comments I went with the few responses I got on the last whenisgood. There are available tables at Dragons Lair for April 14th 2-4. If that absolutely doesn't work I could do another whenisgood. Just get back to be and I'll confirm with them the date! I was thinking let's do something simple for the first meeting. Either munchkin or star flux?

Also for the book club I'll go make an event and give the location as Austin Java on barton springs.


Miss_Tessa_Melissa | 88 comments Yay! I can make it!


message 356: by Emily (new)

Emily | 266 comments Date confirmed and both events are in just waiting on Vicky for approval. See you guys on the 14th for tabletop and the 28th for book club.

Jordan | 8 comments Regarding hangouts: Work schedule permitting I will be there!

Figured I may as well post this here:

so we got this puppy just to give it a temporary home because we didn't want to see him to go the pound, but have been unable to find someone that we knew to take him. So if theres anyone here interested please let me know.
About the dog: Hes about 2 1/2 months old, chocolate lab, has not received any vaccinations yet. Super sweet, great with people and other dogs, just had his nails done so the little bit of jumping he does doesn't scratch. He comes with a collar, some flea medication and if you take him to the Petsmart on Parmer you get discounted baths :)

Ender Wiggin (enderwigginout) | 137 comments I don't think you'll have much trouble finding him a home if you spread that picture around. You managed to capture the "pleading, homeless puppy dog stare" quite nicely.


message 359: by Jordan (new)

Jordan | 8 comments I swear he looks like that all the time so it wasn't hard. he could have been pooping and still had that face


message 360: by Sarah (new)

Sarah (sflanagan19) | 127 comments I'll be at the tabletop event tomorrow. looking forward to it!


message 361: by Emily (new)

Emily | 266 comments In the back rm at the new location


message 362: by Katie (new)

Katie (katie_jones) | 348 comments That was so much fun! I'm glad I went, even if I knocked over a bunch of shot glasses while looking at the Game of Thrones game...nothing broke...but my pride ;)


message 363: by Marcela (new)

Marcela Reyna | 31 comments Oh wow. Sorry that happened to you Katie. I had fun too. Hope we can continue gaming. :)


message 364: by Emily (new)

Emily | 266 comments It was fun. Thanks for playing everyone!


message 365: by Katie (new)

Katie (katie_jones) | 348 comments I watched the Tabletop episode after I got back...if I had watched it sooner I would have picked up on everything so much faster! I also saw some printable boards/level counters online, like these:

message 366: by Jackie (new)

Jackie (jackpurdy) | 120 comments So mad that I missed it! Will try hard to be at the next one for sure!


message 367: by Jackie (new)

Jackie (jackpurdy) | 120 comments Oh, and I looked at the event post for the in-person hangout this month and it had the address for the Barton Springs Austin Java, but we met at the Lamar/12th last time. I don't have a preference, but I just wanted to double-check which one we'll actually be meeting at?


message 368: by Emily (new)

Emily | 266 comments I thought Barton Springs had better parking. So that one.


message 369: by Katie (new)

Katie (katie_jones) | 348 comments FYI everybody: I checked the library website and there are 12 copies of Shadow's Claim and 21 copies of Poison Princess :) Easy to be green/thrifty this month!

Yeah, I totally forgot, too.


message 371: by Marcela (new)

Marcela Reyna | 31 comments Thanks for the update, Katie. I just reserved my copy at the library. So glad there isn't a wait. Maybe this time I'll be able to finish the book early.


message 372: by Emily (last edited May 03, 2013 05:51PM) (new)

Emily | 266 comments In Person Hangout for the book:
http://whenisgood.net/nefjsww

If you guys are into doing another game day. I can host at my apartment if you want or dragon's lair.
http://whenisgood.net/f4c4h8k

I have: Gloom & Starfluxx. If anyone else wants to bring something that's cool. Feel free to watch TableTop for clarification since I'm not the best at describing games. :)


message 373: by Emily (new)

Emily | 266 comments Thanks for the quick replies! I have the dates for the book hangout pinned down.
Hangout:
May 26th Sunday 2pm
What do you guys think as far as location? Austin Java seemed to work fine last time. Open to suggestions.

For the game night the same weekend seemed to work, but that might be too much. How about May 14th around 7pm? I can host at my place. If you guys want Dragon's Lair just say so and I'll put in a request.


message 374: by Katie (new)

Katie (katie_jones) | 348 comments Wish I could make it for game night! I'll be out of town that week. Have fun!


message 375: by Jackie (new)

Jackie (jackpurdy) | 120 comments The 14th sounds good to me for games. Either location, whatever is easiest.

Austin java had good seating and parking, and I'm loving the patio weather. I vote there again OR someplace with margaritas and a patio :) perfect romance bookclub combo.

Margaritas does sound good. Trudy's is the only place I can think of.


message 377: by Sarah (new)

Sarah (sflanagan19) | 127 comments Unfortunately I don't think I'm going to make either meet up this month :( Maybe in June!


message 378: by Ender (new)

Ender Wiggin (enderwigginout) | 137 comments Oh...Trudy's? Trudy's? I might just abandon my hermit tendencies and show up again if it's at Trudy's.


message 379: by Emily (new)

Emily | 266 comments Okay so. Thanks for the feedback here's the consensus:

Table Top Gaming:
May 14 Tuesday 7pm
Dragon's Lair Anderson Lane - that way we could always try their games for free. Castle Panic anyone?

Book Discussion:
May 26 Sunday 2pm
Trudy's North Star
8820 Burnet Road - parking is kinda weird there but 2pm should be okay.


message 380: by Ender (new)

Ender Wiggin (enderwigginout) | 137 comments Oh, I thought you guys meant the Trudy's off Guadalupe. I'm central and carless, so that one is really far north for me. I might show up. It depends if I want to take a 30-45 minute bus ride each way on that day. :O


message 381: by Emily (new)

Emily | 266 comments Sorry Ender. I can change the local. Lets meet at the Guad Location. The official invite will say it too. Hope to see you there.


message 382: by Ender (new)

Ender Wiggin (enderwigginout) | 137 comments Cool!


message 383: by Jackie (new)

Jackie (jackpurdy) | 120 comments Who all is coming to the game night tonight???

I'm coming and bringing my friend with me, but we might be a little after 7, but we'll be there!


message 384: by Beth (new)

Beth | 31 comments I will try to come. sounds fun!


Miss_Tessa_Melissa | 88 comments Sorry guys, I'm sick :( PJs and downloading the new borderlands 2 character for me.


message 386: by Marcela (new)

Marcela Reyna | 31 comments Busy tonight :( hopefully I can make the next one.


message 387: by Emily (new)

Emily | 266 comments I'll be there see you guys soon.


message 388: by Ender (new)

Ender Wiggin (enderwigginout) | 137 comments I'm planning on being there today at Trudy's near Guad and 30th. Might be a little a late though. :)


message 389: by Katie (new)

Katie (katie_jones) | 348 comments Have fun! I'm ditching to see Star Trek w/my hubby ;) I'll be out of town for work soon, so I might not make it the next few times :(


Miss_Tessa_Melissa | 88 comments Where are we meeting up? Patio, inside?


message 391: by Emily (new)

Emily | 266 comments We're in a booth in the back inside


message 392: by Emily (new)

Emily | 266 comments Hey,
I'm putting up the whenisgood for our book hangout this month:
http://whenisgood.net/wafyxzw

Thanks for responding. I don't think I'll organize a game day for this month. If someone else wants to I'd go I'm just a little busy this month. See you soon!


message 393: by Marcela (new)

Marcela Reyna | 31 comments Hi All,

I don't mind organizing a game day at Dragon's Lair if anyone is interested.

message 394: by Katie (new)

Katie (katie_jones) | 348 comments I'm out of town this month, but I recently got Munchkin Zombie and Munchkin Deluxe...can't wait to get back! :) BTW, Steve Jackson lives in Austin; we should definitely try to get a game night going somewhere and see if Felicia can get us the hook-up to his contact info to invite him. Maybe through the "events" thread? Do you think her moderator would pass it on if we tried?


message 395: by Emily (new)

Emily | 266 comments Hey everyone. Just thought I'd tell you that Alamo Drafthouse Ritz is showing Felicia's new movie RockJocks and she's going to be there for a Q&A afterwards! http://drafthouse.com/movies/rock-joc...


message 396: by Marcela (new)

Marcela Reyna | 31 comments Thanks for sharing this, Emily. I just bought my tickets. :D


message 397: by Emily (last edited Jun 18, 2013 04:05PM) (new)

Emily | 266 comments Thanks for the responses! How about Saturday June 22 at 3pm. Trudy's near campus worked last time. As always open to suggestions. I'll leave this open for a few days then add it to the official event thread.

You're welcome. I bought an extra ticket if someone else wants to go.


message 399: by Marcela (new)

Marcela Reyna | 31 comments I received a confirmation from Dragon's Lair that we have a table on June 23 from 3:00-5:00pm for a VF Board Game day. I'll try and get an event set up in goodreads for this. I personally have munchkin (deluxe edition), Aquarius, Zombie Flux and Zombie Dice. I'll bring those in case anyone is interested. Also, the reservation is made under my name.

That seems like a really good idea. Maybe for next month someone could try and arrange this?
