Thanks, Steve.

I have never arranged one of these before. So I appreciate the help.

Did you ask him for one of the suites that we use? If not, let me know what I should best do next.

Also, I'll want to get EOTB's description (or a version thereof) up and running as well.

Fight on!

Awesome.

Chainsaw, I see you are running "Crystal Point" again.

I super love that one.

Since I have been in it once before, does that mean I ought not to play again, or are there other options I wouldn't spoil for folks?

Fight on!

Here's a link to the event description.

If you have a badge, you should be able to register the event pretty easily. Doug assigns the room on the back end.

Awesome.

Chainsaw, which ones are the most like "Crystal Point"? I super love that one and would love to be in some similar kind of dungeon.
Very nice of you to say, man. Well, The Strange Tale of Crystal Point was the working title for what became The Lost Treasure of Atlantis, so they're not just similar - they are identical. :lol:

Here's The Brazen Bull description: In the desert port town of Xambaala, a shifty-eyed Pict named Motios approaches your party, scratching at imaginary insects on neck. He looks left and right, then suddenly whispers, "I just escaped from a murderous cult in possession of countless gems and ancient coins - I'll take you there if you give me black lotus!"

Oh, okay.

Do I need to put in a special request for one of those rooms? If so, what would it be called?

Thanks for the help, EOTB.

I didn't have to. The social is one of those events that's always been at Nortex. Just register it, and if they don't assign a ballrom then we can contact them.

Just remember not to list it as a game event, but a social. IIRC they created a new category last year so that it wouldn't pop up for people who don't know what K&KA is, but are searching events for "AD&D" or "OD&D".

If the event type, title and description makes it clear that you are registering the K&KA Social, then he will almost certainly assign it a boardroom (if there are any left at this point) because we can't have all that homebrew beer out in a public area (and he knows this).

Ah, darn it, too late.

I didn't see a "social" category as available, although I did look pretty hard. In the end I went with OD&D.

Hopefully, since Doug knows us and this is a long standing event he can change that when he assigns us a board room.

I will keep track and contact him as per necessary.

Well, I got in for Saturday Daytime, but I wasn't quick enough to catch the pre-tickets for Wed night. I hope I can still slip in.

Hey, I see you signed up for my game. Thanks, man, looking forward to having you at my table.

Dude, you gotta submit Brazen Bull so I can sign up.

Heck yeah! I can only hope I have enough time between now and then to develop my PC's backstory fully. :wink:

Already did. Will let you know when I see my events approved.

I e-mailed Doug about the Social several days ago, but I still haven't heard anything back. Maybe someone else will have better luck.

Tetramorph, I'm planning to sign up for your Thursday game, but I'm too cheap to sign up early. :lol: Hopefully I won't forget about registration day like last year and end up locked out of everything! :roll:
