Weekend

[lynxreign]

Pete came up! Hooray! And I believe he also made it home again!

We had a day of gaming, thanks to all who came and to aliwings and head58 for hosting.

I played Mwahahaha!, Formula De and Wealth of Nations. Also played were Hanging Gardens and some Rock Balancing Game that Pete brought. Also Rock Band in the Basement (where it belongs).

Pete wanted to play Titan, so naturally I couldn't find it.

head58 grilled for us and that was fine indeed.

Wealth of Nations is quite a good game. It will likely go faster in the future as we now know how to play.

We started the day of gaming at around 3 PM and left at around 3 AM. A solid day indeed.

Sunday morning Pete and I played some Madden 09 on the XBox and then emilytheslayer and I took him to Wild Willy's for lunch.

Now to get wizadrru (and family) and hagbardc (and family) and Pete again up here for the minicon thing this fall.

Yay, it was fun.

I have a repair-fellow here now looking at our AC! Hooray!

[lynxreign.livejournal.com]

I hope it was actually fun, unlike getting the AC fixed. Good luck with that, I hope it is minor.

It was a combo of the filter being blocked and it being VERY low on coolant, he said. Not as bad as I'd feared, but bad enough.

[lynxreign.livejournal.com]

At least those are just maintenance things and not structural things.

What's 'Mwahahaha!'? A mad scientist/scene chewing villain game?

[head58.livejournal.com]

Exactly.

Ooh. This looks like it's right up my alley! How's it play?

[lynxreign.livejournal.com]

Fairly well. I'd like to play it again now that I know the rules more.

[editswlonghair.livejournal.com]

Well, color me interested for next time!

[lynxreign.livejournal.com]

That's a sort of mauve with puce highlights, I think.

[lynxreign.livejournal.com]

A mad scientist card game where you create a device to take over the world, destroying/threatening to destroy cities, states and nations along the way.

Glad you had a good time!

[emilytheslayer.livejournal.com]

What's Rock Bank? I think you still have Wealth of Nations on your brain.

[lynxreign.livejournal.com]

Fine, I fixed it. Sheesh.

[emilytheslayer.livejournal.com]

Did I say you had to fix it? Sheesh right back atcha, mister! I just wanted to know!

[lynxreign.livejournal.com]

Yes, you did.

[emilytheslayer.livejournal.com]

Um, no.

[lynxreign.livejournal.com]

Oh sure, lie now.

[emilytheslayer.livejournal.com]

no u

[editswlonghair.livejournal.com]

Ooh, maybe it's a heist board game! Another one that'd be right up my alley! ;)

[head58.livejournal.com]

Another one that'd be right up my alley!

You have no idea how grating to my ears/eyes that phrase is :)

[editswlonghair.livejournal.com]

Ooh, irking Chris! That's right up my alley! ;p

Hey how was wealth of nations? I was bummed that i had to miss it.

[lynxreign.livejournal.com]

It was a ton of fun.

However, it was likely good that you left when you did as we played until 2:30 AM and ioianthe would have killed you by then.

Travel up to your frozen northern climes in newer Englande? The very idea frightens me, sir!

What do mean, you couldn't find Titan? That's crazy talk.

[lynxreign.livejournal.com]

It was packed and I think is in the storage facility. It is sad.

You'll be fine, our frozen northern climes are quite bracing!

[wizardru.livejournal.com]

Well, I like New England! What's wrong with you?

-oops, it's me, Komochiko.

[lynxreign.livejournal.com]

I was wondering why he was arguing with himself.

I've seen him do it before, but was wondering why now.
