As the wise man said, the wheel in the sky keeps on turning.
Accommodations:
I’m approaching 20 attendees over the weekend, some of you coming some distance. This pleases me. I have to say I’m a little surprised by the demand for accommodations, so I’ve juggled things around and found some more floorspace.
If we forego any notion of privacy, I can fit 7-9 of you in here, evacuation center-style: Two on sofabeds, the rest on the tatami in sleeping bags or futon.
Here is a layout of the ground floor where the gaming/sleeping will take place:

Now, if privacy/real sleep is going to be a concern for you and you still wish to attend, I recommend the Santoku Business Hotel 5+ minutes walk away from here. The rooms start at
￥3900 per person, although I’m not sure if breakfast is included (I believe parking is). Here’s a link

Dinner Plans changed
Dinner will be Sunday night, not Saturday, once all the dice are bagged and cards packed. Saturday night really kind of broke up the day. I figure most people came to game. Time and place remain unchanged (Italiano, 6:30), so if you still have the energy to celebrate a weekend of good gaming... goodness, welcome aboard.
Sorry if this is an inconvenience for anyone, but don’t worry; You still have my permission to eat ;)
RPG schedule
I’ll send one out in a day or two. I’m trying to arrange it to maximize participation (whatever that means) The schedule will be formatted like this:
SUNDAY
Time slot: 14:00-18:00 (four hours)
Game: Dragon Warriors
GM: Paul Harding
Scenario description: Dark medieval fantasy using a classic ruleset. An open ended story with tough choices based on the scenario "The Greatest Prize".
Number of Player Slots: 4
Cthulhu, Dragon Warriors and Gamma World so far are confirmed. If you’d like to participate or GM yourself, drop me a line and we’ll pimp your game.
But what about boardgames?
I’m talking a lot about RPGs, but you boardgamers shouldn’t feel slighted. RPGs just need a bit more TLC than rough-and-ready boardgames. More than a few of you have expressed an interest, so don’t be shy; pack up a favorite game or two and share.
If there is a particular game you’d like highlighted, like the RPG schedule example, please drop me a line and we’ll work something out.
Parking
Parking still looks good, But that will change if a bunch of folks show up in Voxys. If you’re driving please tell me the make/model of your car, so I can maximize the parking availability.
Please keep the questions and comments coming. It is shaping up to be a fun fun weekend.
