Ok, flights are cheap so not impossible then.

The CityPass looks a decent deal, when I was in Seattle it eas pretty great. I'm im going i'll probably arrive on the friday, then leave like the following friday -- since it'd not be worth it to just stay for a weekend.

Faraday · Post Post #298 (isolation #4) » Mon Jan 18, 2016 9:44 am

i'm pretty likely to go at this stage tho. i assume shea or marble have enough floor space since there seems to be a decent amount of interest. (also assuming everyone will be able to get together to play games at one of the places.

Faraday · Post Post #299 (isolation #5) » Mon Jan 18, 2016 11:06 am

booked. arrive @ 4pm on the 12th.

Faraday · Post Post #306 (isolation #6) » Mon Jan 18, 2016 11:19 pm

I'll be around Monday, anyway.

Friday, plan to do some touristy things during the week post official meet.

If that happens it's going to cost me about 2500. I will not pass that cost on to participants except to say that I will accept donations to help defer the costs to myself if people want to give them.

It does seem like itd be worth if there's like 20 people or so anyway, so we're not split up the whole time.

Faraday · Post Post #324 (isolation #9) » Wed Jan 20, 2016 6:31 am

I mean there's like 5-6 confirmeds already and a lot of probably yes people so might be ok?

Just without the card art.

I think that's a pretty decent list, fair amount of variety. Would be p cool, too.

You could probably nix a few. Tracker and watcher are staples but are somewhat awkward face to face. You could probably use 3/4 goons and have it be fine, though

Ya, guess it depends on how many but just browsing the site it seems there's a few available for 16+ people.

Faraday · Post Post #387 (isolation #15) » Sun Jan 24, 2016 10:09 am

Oh yeah, obviously money not withstanding it's a better idea. I'm perfectly ok with whatever option ends up happening.

Faraday · Post Post #459 (isolation #16) » Fri Feb 05, 2016 11:09 pm

oh, it'd be cool to do an escape room too if there was enough interest and there was one close enough to us.

Faraday · Post Post #462 (isolation #17) » Sat Feb 06, 2016 4:05 am

There's

Fox in a box

, which might not be too far away from where we're staying I think? Also has a couple of different escape room options. (33 dollars each for a group of 4/5)

I want to go but I need the cheapest airfare and least disruptive work schedule to have a shot.

So put me down as I really want to but we'll see. Not likely but possible.

People are mostly arriving Thursday or Friday (12/13th) and leaving that Monday it seems.

Faraday · Post Post #534 (isolation #19) » Wed Feb 24, 2016 7:15 pm

Yes plz @ cosmic. I will see what I can fit, maybe Witness since I've not done many of the cases.

Someone should bring spyfall, or we can just use the phone app I guess.

I'd play fury of Dracula. Is it the newest edition?
