I'll be showing up sometime between two and three, I think. I will be bringing Impulse to get some plays of it (Thanks Dana for ordering this one in!). I will likely bring compounded, since it has been requested at Chewsday Challenge. See you all tomorrow!

I'd be up for Mega-carc, depending on when you schedule it.

I am thinking from 1pm to 4:30pm. Does that work for you?

Unfortunately not; I'm doing either Tzolk'in or Stone Age at noon then I'm in the Power Grid tourney at 2:00pm. Oh well, some other time then.
Got a request for a game, check out this link right here: http://www.boardgamegeek.com/collection/user/t_shak I'd be more than glad to bring any of these out to play.

Also, I examined my settlers set (it's been years since I've opened that bad boy) and discovered that I had one extra road in one colour, and one fewer in another. If you're lacking in copies of the game still, I coloured the extra one to almost match the colour that was short; it's different enough so as not to be mistaken for any other colour anyways. Other than that and a bit of usage wear on the cards, it's 100% playable still.

Our dog got into garlic in the garbage.  We need to stay home and monitor him and probably take him to another vet before his eye appointment.
