About 3 hours after we made this revelation, they finished it.
Also would recommend escape room. Much fun.
That's the short version. Apparently it's a 2 hour playtime?
Would it be possible to coordinate this (aka i go to the DP bart station at a convenient time for me to mooch a ride off of you)
Sure. Worst case I can run and get you, it's not like it's
that
far. How about shoot for the train arriving at 2:38? That leaves Coliseum at 2:13. If you're leaving from Downtown Berkeley the 1:48 train gets you to Coliseum at 2:10, so if you hustle you could make it or you could take the 1:33pm train and not leave it to chance (arriving Coliseum at 1:55)

Yes. We have a fan in the sitting room, but otherwise it is going to be quite warm.
Around what time will you be leaving? If you're leaving fairly late and going to be passing through San Jose, would it be possible to ask you for a ride back to the transit center?

Our first game of Rex at Meetreal lasted roughly 15 minutes.
THEN they started taking hour.

I was planning on leaving around 9 but could be flexible. What time is your bus?

My bus is at 12:45 AM. Since I would be leaving for the Dublin/Pleasanton BART at around 9 PM anyway, it'd be more convenient to skip the intervening public transit transfers even if I am at the station early.

And i just finished my speech of why I should get a perma ban.
We have a plan to get the otter drunk and then convince him to capriciously ban someone. The idea is that once he stops, he can't stop. (bet'cha can't ban just one)
But nobody tell him about this ahead of time, okay?
Everything you say and do matters. People will respond in ways you may never see. May those responses be what you intend.

And rex game lasted about six hours apparently, but many people who played told me it was "worth it"
Agreed
ScumBlade's eloquent performance left me utterly disoriented, debased, depraved and sent me spiraling into a horrific murky abyss with emotional turmoil and immense despair as my only companions until slowly I suffocate in my own gloom, surrounded by failure.

lol I always wanted to play twilight imperium games.
I just need to play the original at some point. I hear that takes days.
