I wasn't trying to say that it had to be, I was just saying that I don't have any suggestions of what else to do.

Here's the deal.

Ari gets in on the 16th (and is here for about 10 days).  We're going to be unavailable the 16th, though.  Friday (the 17th) is probably good for now; give me a head's up.

When is LTUE taking place?  Where can I go for more info?  Does any of it require pre-registration?

Anything else I should know?

LTUE info is here:

http://www.ltue.org/

No preregistration required--it's a totally free BYU symposium Thursday through Saturday.

Looks like Friday night it is, though we still don't know what we're doing or where.  We could potentially meet at my place--no one will mind and I have quite a bit of space--but unfortunately I have a shortage of places to sit, which would cause problems.

Is everyone invited to this, or is it something exclusive? (I mean the get-together, not LTUE.) Incidentally, why isn't it LTUAE? Or LUE? Or even LTU&E? Seems like "and" is being discriminated against. ;)



The '&' is definitely being discriminated against. Nothing personal though...it's policy. The word 'and' is clearly superior, but its long length makes it feel superior to acronyms and it chooses to be excluded.

All these dates are February dates, right?

Yup, yup.  Not this weekend but next weekend, so be exact.

If we do end up playing some games again I might be able to snag Arkham Horror from my brothers. It's a new-to-me probably new-in-general game based on Call of Chtulu and the like, and the one time I played it, it was entertaining.

Arkham Horror is awesome. It's also a cooperative game which allows for more chatting.

No, for Friday night. I'll have to head back to Seattle right after my last panel on Saturday--flight something like 8pm or something. Speaking of which, OldOne has kindly said she could pick me up from the airport on Wed. Is there anyone who would be willing to take me back Saturday?

Right, and JadeKnight, you said you can't do Saturday.  

EUOL, Fell, are you guys changing your writing group?  Are you coming Tage?  (IE, are we going to have it at your place or are we all going to sit on my floor, since that's the only place that's been volunteered so far.)
