Righteo then!
First off, can everyone who is coming please say so here, so I can put together a proper list. Definite yes/no's, etas and method of transport.
You can turn up any time after midday on Friday, and I wont be forcibly evicting anyone till Monday afternoon. If you are training it, you want to aim for either Leicester or Loughborough, although the latter is the better option. There is also Barrow-upon-Soar, but good luck getting a train to there. If people can try and get to the station in carloads it would be much appreciated. Alternatively, I can get you taxi numbers.
If you are driving let me know and I will give you directions and such.
As for gaems themselves, I'm thinking the following: Saturday and Sunday we have the mornings for waking up and farting about with characters and rulebooks. Have mid day fuuds, then kick off an afternoon gaems at about 1ish. Eveningfuuds whenever we get hungry, followed by another gaems session. This gives us roughly 4 big slots (hohoho) to fill with proper beardings, and we can squeeze in some extra games or whatever in between. Obviously, we wont panic if things over-run or finish early, but it gives us a rough idea of what needs preparing for.
So on that note, we come to gaems. Grimmie is putting a one shot D&D extravaganza together, and I'm formulating some SR and EP one shots, but that leaves us with at least one other slot to fill (teehee). I could probably pull another SR or EP pre-written thing out if all else fails, but it would be good to have some variety if someone wants to volunteer their GM services.
Something I thought might be an good mini-game to be slotted in if/when there's space would be a quick D&D 4th ed game. I know I've been pretty derisive of it in the past, and I doubt I'm going to be tempted away from 3.5 any time soon, but I would be interested to see what its like. Just a quick single encounter monster-pwn to check out the mechanics.
Finally, booze-n-food. There's takeaways and pizza places around here, and there's a couple likely looking restaurants or food serving pubs if people want to escape the house for a bit at some point. Any preferences? As for boozamahols and snackfoods, stick any requests in here and I will make a supermarket run beforehand.
