Should just do one maybe a few times a year and try and get some other CPers in there for a bigger tourney. I'd love to play with some CPers but I'm stuck on this rock, maybe if I'm out in Calgary in the summer and there is a game I will pop by and take all your money....ya that's right!

The 6th sounds okay for me, its possible to offer my place again if necessary but was hoping for a different change of scenery.

That and a few more people, lets try to hit 10 this time!!!

I think the 6th works for me... have to check with the boss. But I am 90% sure the friend I brought last time will be out of town, so I won't be +1.

I understand. I should be able to offer my place for the one after, but not this one. That's the curse of being single - you are the only one allowed to have friends over.

I have a 2.5 year old who goes to bed at 7:30--and my place is less than 800 sq. feet. So, not really practical for hosting.

I didnt realize there was a curse to being single, count on Vlad to rain on my parade!

Ok well if it has to be at my place again i suppose its fine, that doesnt mean anyone else who could offer their place shouldnt

Lets try to get it to ten so i have the possibility of not just breaking even again.
Lets tentatively make it for Mar 6th then, ill be able to confirm that date for sure after this weekend.

Similar situation to me. I have the required square footage (and plenty of chairs) but the 4 month old and the 2.5 yr old vastly limit my options for having people over. This is compounded by the fact that my wife thinks that meeting people online is really creepy and doesn't want any of you "creepy computer geeks" in our home (no offence).

Just tell her that Albert doesn't represent us all...

VladtheImpaler · 03-01-2010, 06:58 AM

Bump to remind people we are playing this Saturday. 8pm or do we want to start earlier? I assume Albert, IFF, and Starfishy are in for sure?

Poison · 03-01-2010, 10:25 AM

To put the heads up out there, i may have to go to a wedding that night, will know more by tommorrow or latest wednesday so i have to put a tentative mark until i know for sure.

Unless it's your own wedding, I fail to see it as a relevant excuse. We barely excused Albert for his honeymoon.

albertGQ · 03-01-2010, 11:23 AM

My wife's friend from Edmonton is in town that night so I will have the baby. Unless you guys are okay with a 16 month old running around, I won't be able to attend

I was looking forward to collecting on my free buy in courtesy of Vlad, but I guess it'll have to wait until next month. lol

Iowa_Flames_Fan · 03-01-2010, 11:55 AM

To be honest, guys--Saturday's not great for me either. Later in the month would be a lot better. I might be able to come, but it would be after 9:00 or 9:30.

VladtheImpaler · 03-01-2010, 12:25 PM

Well, it looks like the flies are dropping.

I'm definitely out for the 12th/13th. 19th/20th might be OK....

EDIT: What about Friday the 5th?

If you don't mind a newcomer, I can do the 5th.

Iowa_Flames_Fan · 03-01-2010, 02:33 PM

5th is no good for me. I have a major deadline that evening.

Poison · 03-01-2010, 02:58 PM

Sounds like we may need to try for later this month then.

VladtheImpaler · 03-05-2010, 08:09 AM

Just wanted to bump to make sure nobody shows up at Poison's tomorrow.

csnarpy · 03-05-2010, 02:28 PM
