Days of Ice and Fire

By Staton, in 1. AGoT General Discussion

Well since this event is only about five weeks away, I was kinda wondering who was going. I know Katie and I will be going. Not sure who else we might be brining. Although, there is definitely going to be a surprise guest coming with me! An old player who is interested in getting back into the game.

It also looks like the price dropped. I am pretty sure that when it was first announced it was $60, but now looking at the Product page for the event the cost is only $25. That certainly makes it more managable for people.

I want to attend, but alot depends on having to cover the store. But with all the people talking about attending (on website other than this) I really want to make this to see everybody. And GRRM, of course.

I'm totally down for it, though now that I see it announced again, I really, really need to make sure that I asked off for the right weekend from work.

FFG really, REALLY needs to post a schedule of events for this. Some of us have long drives to make it there and need to plan accordingly. For the Thrones events, is it LCG only? Joust? Melee? Is it going to be regional-type prizes? When is Martin scheduled to be onhand?

Really, there is so much more that needs to be posted regarding this weekend and we are only 5 weeks away.

I feel the same. See my thread in the Events Forum regarding this.

This needs addressed immediately if you want people to plan on driving.

So, I just confirmed with the powers that be (um...the wife) that I will be attending! Woo-hoo!

That is, if there is anything to attend that I know about... :)

I spoke with FFG yesterday and they assured there would be a schedule up tomorrow.

steve and i just got plane tickets last night -- and my first printing/first edition copy of game of thrones arrived not too long ago, ready for the signing happy.gif

Any chance you can take me in your luggage? I'll pay the passenger bag fee lengua.gif

This E-mail comes directly from FFG regarding the event:

Friday 7:00pm Melee

Saturday 2pm Joust

Sunday 10:00am Legacy Highlander

Hope it helps

Thank goodness!

I can skip the Melee and play in the Joust. Probably just fun games from that point, not sure if I am going to re-try Highlander.

Hopefully I can get GRR Martin to sign my new Brotherhood - I have all my old Westy Brotherhood signed already.

2pm Joust. Let's hope we don't get 40 people, or it will go until midnight (or later). On the plus side, I could likely make that if I can get out of work early.

I should be able to make the joust, but not the melee. Which does not break my heart since I don't like the idea of melee tournaments anyway.

:P

Woot! The only day I was able to be there was Saturday so this works well. I convinced my wife to visit her sister who live an hour and a half south of the Twin Cities as a veiled excuse to be in MN that weekend (I'm from Illinois). I'm incredibly devious that way.....bwahahahah! See ya'll there!

Any places to crash yet?

Nickler? :)

I will be participating as a player for a change. Looking forward to it!

Got my November schedule at work today, and I am most certainly off the appropriate days!

Good chance I'll see him tonight, so I'll ask.
