We need to enact a play.

Is your place hot or cold at this time?

It's fun, but really not good for non-board gamers
Define "non-board gamers." People who don't have a tolerance for geeky/complicated stuff or any kind of strategy game, or people who rarely play tabletop board games? (We're probably the latter.)

I've heard many, many good things about Carcassone but have never had an opportunity to play. Thus, I selfishly vote for that. <.<

I'll bring my own blankets and pillow, but I had thought you were supplying all the rest.

If you don't have enough I suppose I could haul my sleeping bag.
I'll give you a moment to let that sink in

Hmm. My bus stop in Maryland is a lot further from Baltimore than I realized. (White Marsh Park & Ride.) Would someone be able to grab me from there? I'm supposed to arrive around 5 pm on Tuesday, although I'm not sure I trust Megabus to run on time.

We currently have nine beds and air mattresses (3 queens I believe, 2 fulls, 3 twins) so that's at worst 12 sleeping situations and we obviously need eight more not including sleeping bags which are a last resort. I'll e in Baltimore starting tomorrow night and will be asking around for spare ones and Oliver expects to get at least two before coming down so I think at minimum we will have 15 spots on beds but the last few are just being an issue. If someone traveling by car brings an air mattress it saves a lot of calling by me

At worst maestro said he has sleeping bags for the last few spots and we will just have to switch out over the weekend when we have over 15

I'm not gonna get into the math of how i got 12 but it's basically that Oliver and I will share a bed and so will glork, singer and quad

So 12 not counting Oliver and I

Oh look that was the math

We can still bring a sleeping bag and a couple of comforters/pillows. We're only there for the weekend but hopefully it'll help provide a temporary solution.
Glork and quadz08 are my favorite.

I like tomatoes.

Sorry, I ended up going with Arkham Horror. The guy at the game store gave it a glowing review and recommended it over Carcassonne
(probably because the former is much more expensive)
. Last chance for someone to tell me they're bringing it to the meet or it's unplayable to someone of Faraday's intelligence level before I open it!

Also, I'll try to get my hands on a sleeping bag within the next few days.

If I have time, I'll test-pack today and see how many of Dominion, Intrigue expansion and BSG I can fit in my suitcase. Well, I already know it won't be all of them. Probably only one. Any preferences? Intrigue can work standalone so if chamber is maybe coming and maybe bringing base set it might make more sense to bring that instead of the base set. But I could bring BSG instead. Possibly.

I have no intention to bring dominion unless there is a lot of desire for it, I'd rather bring my cube and race and they take up less space/I have limited space (if I'm comming).

Fair enough. I might lean towards BSG over it, as well.
