LTUE Rifftrax party: Reign of Fire
« on: January 30, 2007, 10:06:43 PM »
It's time to plan this sucker. The best night is looking like Thursday, and thanks to EUOL's class we'd be starting the movie at 8:30 or 9. We could do games or food before that. Is this groovy with everyone? Make yourselves heard!

Starting the movie at 9 would work best for me (have class), I wouldn't even bother with games we're 0/2 on playing them at TWG parties since Rifftrax.
Screw it, I'm buying crayons and paper. I can imagineer my own adventures! Wheeee!

Heh. That's because you haven't seen SW starships yet! :) I'm bringing my set, in case we ever get an opening to play. Either at a lunch between sessions at LTUE, or some other time.

I'll be there for the Rifftrax, and anything after something like 5pm works for me.

The thing is Stacer people come to these not planning to play games or are people who wouldn't normally show up if we were playing games so there's a real lack of intrest in those there for playing.  They want to talk and watch a movie, also the fact we're doing this on a Thursday at 9pm pretty much guarantees as soon as the movie is over everyone is going to jet (I know I am) and even if something happens earlier (like games at 8, movie at 9) most won't show up until 9.

It's pretty sad, but games at TWG parties are pretty much over since many of the people who come don't want or like playing games.

Oh, I didn't mean *at* the party. I meant, if any of us who would be interested in seeing/playing the SW minis are around at the same time while I'm there over the weekend, I'm bringing them to Utah. Sorry for the miscommunication.

Can I just say that I rock?  I surfed the official LTUE website:  http://ltue.byu.edu/home.html and found that they are using the art I created the first year I was involved with that thing.

I did the dragon breathing fire up the tale of the rocket.  I'm proud of it.

Skar,

I see that picture all the time at LTUE.  You have quite the legacy!

I'm another vote for Thursday on this thing, though if Stacer's flight leaves on Sun, then I'd vote for Sat.

Yeah, that's the trouble. They still haven't given me my itinerary yet. I really don't want to leave Saturday night, simply because it'll be a long, long day--I'm on the second to last panel ending at 5 pm, and if I have to go straight to the airport, I'm not going to be a happy girl.

But I'm waiting on the committee to let me know when my travel plans are. I'll let you guys know when I find out.

I'm good with whatever, but I might try to heckle someone for a ride if it'll be right after EUOL's class.

Wow, teachers can get professional development credit for attending LTUE. I know some teachers that are close to a lane change that would like to know about that deal.

So Thursday or Friday night is the best night for me.

Well I'll actually be at LTUE for the first time since 2001 (when I helped Fell with something there) and on the Website panel with EUOL, not sure if I'm going to take the full day off or just take 2 hours off for it, so there's the possibility of sometime Friday.

I would like to play something, and I'm open to suggestions. Maybe we can get some gaming in before the movie.

I would love to try Twilit Imperium but Thursdays just don't work out well for be to get to this in time to play (since it takes at least an hour from what I've heard and I believe that the 15th is a midterm in my 3d Modeling class), hopefully if Stacer doesn't leave until Sunday we can play then.
