I am trying to get rid of the rest of the retribution I have, although I should probably talk about that through PMs instead

**Neutralyze** · 04-14-2011, 12:26 PM

im also sure if you guys ask that RIW can be used on weekends for casual games as well. that is, if you dont want to drive too far. holly and I might even show up if summoned.

**tunagami** · 04-14-2011, 12:28 PM

RIW is SUPER close to me and would be the preferred venue on the weekends, but I understand if other stores are closer to people. I know that Tues nights they have gaming, but I am already in another group the regularly games on Tues nights.

Is there an email address (PM it to me) for the owner to ask these type of questions?

Thanks!

**Neutralyze** · 04-14-2011, 12:34 PM

im not sure what the email address is. i know the website is RIWhobbies.net.

you can always PM us as well and we can arrange a Saturday meet ( anyone from RIW hobbies thread). we like playing new people.

**Writer@Large** · 04-15-2011, 11:38 AM

Well, I've tentatively set up a game with someone at Shenanigan's around 7pm [Not a forumite]. I was hoping to start playing earlier in the day, but it'll do.

IF someone wants to play earlier in the day, I could be at either Shenanigan's or Pandy by about 4pm. I could probably do RIW, too, though it'd be take longer to drive both there and back down to Taylor, so it'd probably have to be a shorter game. But I'm willing!

I come from Dearborn, so I'm actually fairly centrally located. RIW is furthest, but only by about 4 or 5 miles.

**paradox** · 04-15-2011, 03:46 PM

Just an FYI: This saturday (4-16) is the Mini Art of War meeting at RIW. MAOW meets the 3rd saturday of each month at RIW.
This means that the club has reserved the rights to the Green room for the day.

This does not strictly preclude you from playing, but a member may ask you to leave. If you plan to play at RIW, it is best to post on mini art site (miniartofwar.net) that you plan to show up and are looking for games. We reserve the right to eject people we don't want in our club.

But membership is as easy as having someone sponsor you and and not being a @#!$ when you game. Just be a decent human being with good hygeine and social skills.

That said, I will be there for a bit tomorrow. I'm willing to throw games down. The doors open about noon. I'm taking off about 8pm or so.

In the gamer subculture, that's practically elitist.

**paradox** · 04-16-2011, 05:16 AM

So I have been told!

**Neutralyze** · 04-16-2011, 06:41 AM

I thought it was the third weekend of the month but sometimes think its the 2nd. ah well

.

**Nuriochi_sol** · 04-16-2011, 07:37 AM

Hey, Writer. Got some time on my hands and Flint looks to have fallen through. You gonna be around? Drop me a text. 248.229.7605

**Writer@Large** · 04-16-2011, 10:43 AM

Shoot, Nuriochi, I ended up somewhere else this afternoon. But I will be at Shenanigans in the 6 o'clock hour.

**PellaxVeritas** · 04-16-2011, 11:30 AM

My apologizes Nuriochi, just got your pm. Unfortunately I had plans this Saturday for a wedding. Wish you luck with the games though.

**Nuriochi_sol** · 04-16-2011, 01:04 PM

Ah no worries... I went to Shenanigan's for a while and came home. Next time.

**Writer@Large** · 04-17-2011, 07:55 AM

Well, I finally got to play. I literally lost the game by less than 1/4 an inch ... the distance my EBDT needed, but didn't have, to get to Durgen Madhammer after making a 12" charge from the backfield. Grrrrr!

**Nuriochi_sol** · 04-20-2011, 11:48 AM

Well, a loss is MUCH better than nothin'... gonna head out to Pandy tonight. Hope there are people there!!!

**Writer@Large** · 04-22-2011, 06:39 AM

Easter weekend. What's everyone's plans?

**Nuriochi_sol** · 04-22-2011, 06:45 AM

Bad news is I'm booked up for the weekend. Good news is I've recently been in touch with an old friend who isn't on the boards, who's looking for weekend games. So we'll see... I'm looking at the 30th to try and get people together.

**Neutralyze** · 04-22-2011, 06:47 AM

i know chuck and I most likely are going down to columbus to play some games with their crew. game room is the name of it in toledo. were going on saturday.

**paradox** · 04-22-2011, 06:58 AM

I plan on hitting GoB and possibly meeting up with Stokes.

**Writer@Large** · 04-26-2011, 01:48 PM

WEEKEND OF 4-30

Shenanigan's has a 40k tourney on Saturday. Pandy has a MTG tournament AND a WHFB League AND a Yu-Gi-Oh sneak peek on Saturday. RIW has a packed slate for the Blue Room on Saturday.

A table! A table! My kingdom for a table!

So ... who's up for a Sunday game?

**Nuriochi_sol** · 04-26-2011, 05:07 PM

Thinking about meeting a friend up at Guild of Blades in Madison Heights; should be tables there, though sometimes they're pressed for space.

**Writer@Large** · 04-29-2011, 07:09 AM

GoB might be the only option ... how long do you think you'll be there? I'd drive up there, but only if there was a fair chance I'd have an opponent.

**Nuriochi_sol** · 04-29-2011, 12:20 PM

Well, I'm hoping to get there around 1 or 2, and probably stay for a couple games.

You missed that fair chance.

We had about 5 people.

**Writer@Large** · 05-01-2011, 04:10 PM

Yeah, dishwasher broke. Had to spend the evening playing repairman.

On the bright side, didn't need a new one.

**Nuriochi_sol** · 05-05-2011, 09:21 AM

Alrighty Weekenders... who's available? What's the local haps? If I don't hear anything, I'll probably head to Guild of Blades, but I'd rather have access to more elbow room.

**Neutralyze** · 05-05-2011, 09:25 AM

theres a 150 ot tourney this weekend at RIW starting at 9 AM reg at 8:30.

**Nuriochi_sol** · 05-05-2011, 09:35 AM

Yeah, I saw that. Can't rationalize spending that much time gaming.

**Writer@Large** · 05-05-2011, 09:43 AM

And I can't rationalize being prepared enough to go be the kicked bodger of the tourney.

Shenanigan's has something going on this weekend, a 24-hour event thing ... so probably Pandy's the place.

**Nuriochi_sol** · 05-05-2011, 01:38 PM

I thought Shenanigan's 24-hr event was the 20th-21st... I may have to meet someone up at Guild of Blades. Not sure yet though.

**Writer@Large** · 05-05-2011, 01:54 PM

Do I have the wrong weekend? I might ...

... I was wrong. This week is the Settlers of Catan tourney, but that's on Friday night. So Shenanigan's is viable!

I need to fact check before I post ...

**Nuriochi_sol** · 05-06-2011, 02:56 PM

So which should we go to? Guild of Blades? Pandy? Shenanigan's? What time? Wish more people would get involved!!! Where are you all? Besides the 150pt tourney at RIW, which I know the peeps going to that usually don't play or have to worry about weekend games anyway.

**Writer@Large** · 05-07-2011, 02:53 AM

I'm not available today until closer to 5 pm. If you can make that time, I'll go wherever you'd prefer.

**paradox** · 05-08-2011, 06:02 AM

Says that man who showed up with no models the other weekend.

**Nuriochi_sol** · 05-08-2011, 06:46 AM

Yeah, yeah...

**Writer@Large** · 05-11-2011, 11:46 AM

Alright, Nuriochi, my goal this week is to actually get a game in against you. So let's start planning now. I have a more open schedule this weekend. What's yours like?

**Neutralyze** · 05-12-2011, 06:36 AM

where and when this weekend? i might be able to drop on by.

**Nuriochi_sol** · 05-12-2011, 01:30 PM

I'm working on it, Writer. I think we're looking at Pandy, Neut. Probably around 1 or 2pm. Kinda middle-ground for those of us in the area.

**Neutralyze** · 05-13-2011, 05:42 AM

just update tonight or tomorrow morning if you are going and where it is at.
