| I'm sure we'll all be crossing paths for 4 days.... I figure I'll be using the Mini's hall as "HQ" for everything else I do.
I'm tentatively signed up for an RPGA event Friday Evening, but I will be bagging it if the grinder drags on to far, and I'm still in the game...
Saturday night should see some free time as well, Nationals starts at what, 10:00? with the elimination round pushed to Sunday, things should be wrapped up by 6-7:00 in the evening (depending upon how efficient the judges are...).

| Pat, yeah I am hoping a bunch of us can get together and grab some dinner and play some virtual horse racing about the Top 8. We can all compare notes and see who we think is going to win. :D (I am not expecting to make Top 8 again this year.)
Chris, what does your Friday look like? | |

| I'll show up to the maxminis tourney, but I'm not sure if I can realistically play in it. I want to meet everyone and I'll probably contribute something to the prize support. :)
There's a nice little Irish pub that I want to revisit so if anyone is up for that, I'm defnitely game. :)

| I hope that everyone will come to the maxminis tourney and at least play a round or two. Realistically, I don't think it's going to go all night... it'll be late, no doubt. But if the majority vote to call it a night after 3 rounds then so be it...
Pub? Irish? Uh... ok!

| I might be up for something Wednesday. I fly in around noon. I may end up eating dinner with the Miniatures staff, but I am not sure. I know he talked about a meeting that night too. During the week, I'm working until 9pm each night, but I'd be up for having some fun after that. I'll be working in the miniatures room, DDM league most days then AAM on Sat.
Thanks,

| Jesse,
I don't fly in until Thursday morning but would love to join in on the Friday lunch/dinner/last minute practice! And as Pat suggested, possibly Saturday night. Team Buddha has to gather, if only for 15 minutes! Phrank, talk loud in French and we'll find you! :) | |

| I checked my mail, and I have a meeting possibly at 8pm and one at 4pm on Wed, but I may be interested in something before. There's a Rock Bottom Brewery nearby too so anybody interested in hitting that some night? My cell is 919-522-1503. I'm staying over in the Marriott, I don't know if we have internet access or not.

| | I think a Friday evening get together sounds good. That way people who are judging and such can also join us (as I know Derry and Dagni are going to be judging on Friday at the very least.) This will also give me a chance to poison my major competition. Now where to find some arsenic... | |

Friday night would be good. I'm working with the DDM league until 9pm then have to be back at 8am the next morning for AAM, lol. I know Derry is working until 9 on Friday too, but I don't know who Dagni is, don't see him on our shift schedule.

9pmish Miniatures Hall? I know a couple of us will be working there, and it sounds like some people are playing in the grinder. If that doesn't work, we could meet in one of the hotel lobbies at 9:15pm or so. | |

| Well if we meet at the minis hall at 9:00, the grinder should be finished and we can then head out. I know that the Ram is in that General area, or the Tavern they are building for TD is in the Mariott across the street.
That beer thing is a food, right? Made from some type of grain right? | |
