I've been mulling this over for a bit. While I've invited individuals to come stay with me and come hang for some Atlanta gaming, I've never really tried to round up a group of people.
I'm going to rent a clubhouse to game at or we can possibly game at Mercer College.
I'll help coordinate transportation from the airport if you're flying in.
I'll let people sleep at my place, and or line up an inexpensive room.
I'll make sure there is a plethora of games available.
You're going to have to deal with getting here.
I'm looking at a Mid - Late February.
Those coming the farthest get priorty housing arrangements.
I need a head count of anyone who might consider coming. I'll set down specific dates once I see how well this idea is recieved.
I'm driving down to Florida in late Feb. Stopping in for some gaming and drinking along the way for a night might work out. Keep the info coming as to dates.
Let me clarify that we will very likely be doing most of the gaming at the Mercer Gamefest. Their conference center is an almost ideal setting for gaming, with lots of space tables, chairs in an open airy environment (which incidentally looks a lot like the Justice league Fortress.) The clubhouse is the backup plan.
Frank has made tenative plans with the director of Student Services there though no offical dates have been set. Once that gets firmed up I'll post it. I doubt you're going to a cheaper, easier, gaming roadtrip if you can swing the transportation.
It is free. The money we charged went toward a late afternoon drink and deli tray run.
They seem to like having 80 people.
They have space for perhaps 120 people, with a large food service counter alongside one side for snacks. There is a commercial kitchen just off the room with an ice machine and fridge.
They might be willing to host a 3 day event.
The downsides:
Absolutely no booze. It is a dry campus. I can see this as a major problem.
No hotels within walking distance.
We can't really do a seriously late hour thing, as they kind of have to have a Mercer student or faculty member available. For my birthday thing, we shut it down at 1:00AM. There were mostly just a handful of us left anyway.
Mercer is decent, but yeah, no booze and yes that is a Major Problem. Of course, you can always do what Kenyon does and just show up drunk. It's also pretty remote if you're coming from out of town- it's way off public transportation lines and it's an expensive cab ride to the area- and then ther's nothing else there but the school.
But that being said, between us ATL folks we can get you around, I think.
For anybody that winds up staying at Avery's place- $25 to the first F:ATtie who takes a dump in his foyer.
Nothing in walking distance but we can arrange shuttle service and plenty of people who can help drive. Anyone who is staying with me will probably pile into my wife's minivan.
I just pulled out Deathrace the other day. There are a new line of toys out there called Battlecars that looks even cooler than my beloved Racer knights. I just need to add some barbed wire and gun emplacements to the track to really add the finishing touches.
