I can almost definitely squeeze you into my Thursday night game, assuming that a midnight-ish stop time isn't too late for work on Friday?

On Wednesday we've talked about playing some boardgames, etc. after finishing booth setup. Nothing definite scheduled yet.

Allan.
I think the Thurs. night game would work great! Sleep is overrated anyway. Is the annual Popeye's dinner happening Wednesday night?

You can crash my Thursday morning AD&D game, if you like (10:00). Also, my peeps are probably playing TSR's Conan game Wed night if you or anyone else wants to play. Time and place for that are tbd but we'll be up there mid-afternoon.

Thanks for the offer, Keith! I don't think I'll be staying in Lake Geneva, driving home instead Wednesday night then coming back down Thursday, but if I do I may very well take you up on the offer! Your last game I played in was fantastic!
