Illinois/Wisconsin Game Night!

[Kroogah]

Update! We HAVE A HOST! Kamino is graciously offering his new apartment up in Fond du Lac, Wisconsin, for a night of gaming to all who show up!

We are possibly working a trip to 6th Avenue Comics & Cards (& arcade & video games) in West Bend into the schedule.

Right now the exact date is up in the air, but it will probably be a Saturday in January.

POST IF YOU THINK YOU MAY ATTEND, THEN WE CAN PLAN AROUND EVERYONE'S SCHEDULES!

Let's have it at your house...

Tried that, there is room for about 6 people total at my house. What NW suburb are you in?

Dave & Busters in Addison. Get drunk and then play some Mo-Cap Boxing...whee!

YES.

I was trying to remember what town it was in.

So arcade-wise and store-wise we have:

Dave & Busters - Addison, IL
Gameworks - Schaumburg, IL
Videogames Etc. - Norridge, IL
Video Game Kingdom - Green Bay, WI
6th Avenue Comics And Cards - West Bend, WI

Anyone else have any suggestions?

I am moving this weekend. I'd be more than willing to host it at my apartment: 633 S Main St #8, Fond du lac WI 54935.

That's a possibility. How big is the apartment?

Hrm.....yeah, on a rough estimate i'd say the bedroom is 10x10, and the living room might be 15x15? i'll take measurements when i move in and post in here again. I didn't really bother to measure, I just eyeballed it; it's on the first floor, so i took it. Heh.

[Kamino]

Ok guys. We're gonna have to look at some dates here.
Maybe Mid december? Saturday the 10th or saturday the 17th? The only thoughts I have on that, is with it being that pesky retail season, those who work retail jobs might have a bitch of a time getting off.
Maybe we should do this in January? Early January? That would give everyone plenty of notice, and give the college kids among us an actual chance to make it.
As I look at the calendar...maybe Saturday, Jan 7, 2006???
Those are the 2 dates I figure might work best, as I look ahead here.
Feel free to put in your input.

[Kamino]

crizap! Double post.

I might be interested in some gaming (I don't actually get to do a lot of it), but there's no way I could host -- if I didn't have a collection, maybe, but there's just no room in my apartment anymore!

[Queen Of The Felines]

January should be good for me. November and December are both completely shot.

(*note to self - need to see Russ' collection before I die )

It's not very impressive compared to some people's, especially concerning condition and presentation. But I suppose it's a very large pile of stuff if put all together.

(Part of the problem with my apartment though is that I also have lots of books, lots of CDs, and lots of miscellaneous crap too).

[ozyr]

Hang out at Kamino's place!

I'd finally be able to see all his MOD'd stuff!

It'll be really hard to make it on a Saturday though.... I work EVERY Saturday! I will try to sneak in for a few hours though.... Kamino promised to Mod my Odyssey2 if I hadn't done it yet (and I haven't).

[dave2236]

I have a wedding the weekend of January 6th

but otherwise count me in

[Kroogah]

Man, this can't be it! I can think of about 30 more people in the area, at least!

I know you're reading this. NOW POST! :D

[drummy]

Yay, Kamino! I'll have to rely on GrayFox to give me a ride though. I'll have a little chat with the man.

Now show us some pictures of your dwelling, boy.

EDIT: Oh, and if you guys are willing sometime, I can have a get-together at my house in Illinois during my winter break (it's about half an hour away from the Gameworks Capt. Yashiro mentioned above). Unfortunately, I go to a school here in Milwaukee, WI, so I can't do it until winter break.

[GrayFox]

As long as I can get drunk and play games, I'm there.

To the hardcore max.

You always have the same mindset you boring bastard.

Yes. Very yes. Extra points if you do it in that order.

All y'all: Feel free to copy me and Kamino and put a link to this thread in your signature.

What time frame are you guys looking at (how late?)? What about food? Perhaps a few people to bring drinks and we go in on some pizzas or something?

I may be able to attend but it's a bit far off yet to know for sure, and my work schedule is kinda goofy (no days off either). That could be completely different in two months time, so it may not even be an issue.
