THE RECKONING III
commune-ist party
debauchery cometh:
(expired on 2014-01-18 00:00:00)When:
January 17 - January 26, 2014Where:
Raleigh, NCWhy:
Because you have to have a 'third' in a trilogy.First, there was the original Reckoning, and it was awesome. Then, from all the awesome times had at that meet, the NC Scummer Commune began, and it was awesome. Then, the Reckoning II: Electric Boogaloo started, and it too was awesome. Scumhaus may not exist anymore, but Grimm & I have recently moved into a new place and figured, "Eh, we have enough space to do this shit again" and so here at last is the third and final Reckoning. Disclaimer: there are usually several nights of empty beer cans and farting and you need to just be an adult about it.
Transportation:
You can get here by plane (RDU), by train (the Raleigh Amtrak station), or by automobile (we are located right off of I-440 aka I-40 in Raleigh NC). If you're traveling by boat, then you're just a dick.
Things to Do:
If the previous Reckonings are any indication, there will be plenty of board games and video games played throughout the course of the meet. Alcohol will be consumed with glee, and then there will wind up being one night that a bunch of scummers go out and do something as a group.
There's a pool hall right across the street from our place that does trivia, poker, and other fun things.
We'll probably do a Magic: The Gathering night, too... either buy-a-box and draft at home, or go to the LGS right up the street and fire off our own pod. People will plan to take pictures, and then they won't, and then videos of scummers making out will resurface months later. It's a blast.Money to Budget:
Aside from transportation costs, you'll need to budget for food. We recommend budgeting at least $7/day for food, probably more, but last year we just took up Holy Ghost Revival-style collection plates and made family meals from that. Then we ate a
lot
of Cook-Out, which happens to be a local delicacy. Our new place is located within walking distance of about ten different restaurants, too. The price only scales upwards based on how much you intend on engaging in extracurricular activities, such as alcoholism, movies, and gay bars. Don't worry, I hate gay bars more than anyone, and yet I was forced to go on my birthday last year. It's fine. Also, as always, tips to cover cleaning costs/paper cups/plates/supplies/the absurd amount of water & electricity used during the meet are greatly appreciated.Lodging:
We don't have quite as much comfy space as Scumhaus, but we
do
have a much nicer place with shiny comfy carpeted floors and the BRAND NEW SECRET DOUBLE TWIN BEDS for people to sleep in. We're upping the ante quite a bit for the final Reckoning... this time, we'll have couches, chairs, and actual mattresses
for people to sleep on. On top of that, one benefit of being in the Commune is that we have several local lodging establishments where wayward Scummers can find a comfy sleeping spot, so don't worry about that being an issue at all. In fact, upon taking an objective survey of the new digs, we'll likely wind up being evenly split between Reck/Grimm's townhouse and singer/Glork/quadz's house. For anyone who went to Balto, it'll work about the same way: people will generally group up for activities at one of the two main places, then we'll be shuttling people back and forth. I think it's safe to say that on those nights where things get heavy in the debauchery, there will be safehouses for those who do not wish to participate.Not convinced yet? Just look up testimonials of previous Reckonings. Go on, do it. Especially that one GIF of InflatablePie passing out on the staircase in the garage from drinking too much. You know you want to...
