Adepticon 2016
« on: May 22, 2015, 01:43:39 pm »
I just checked and Geek Nation Tours has their Adepticon 2016 tour up.  I submitted a booking request and asked if they offer any group rates in case we've got enough folks in Colorado interested in going.  I'll let you know what I find out.

I just heard back from GNT and they're already about half full.  I should get a call from them soon to work out cost, at which point I'll pass it along here.

Alright! I've gotten the proper clearances from CINC-HOUSE, so I am in for the Adepticon GNT. If we can get a few of us all going, we will have to have a MBS mini-Con one of the days we are there. Not to mention, we can spread the Good Word about naval gaming  8).

Awesome!  Sounds like Greg has obtained similar clearance!

It is true, I have. Put down my deposit today.

We need to get some MBS buttons or something. With 5 of us going, I'm not sure that's enough to have T-shirts made, but buttons might be doable.

And Stephan just told me that everything has to be painted for Adepticon...oh man, I've got a LOT of work to do......

Yeah. I'm thinking we need to have some Adepticon prep painting parties this winter.

So, are we going to throw down a challenge to the Firebase Delta crew?  Us vs them in Firestorm.

I'll defer to Ruckdog on this, since he is MBS-Actual.  :D

That could be an epic idea... we'd likely have to carve out some late time for it.

I'm thinking Iron Man Firestorm.  Take a shot of that 141 proof Navy Strength Gin for every ship lost.

If we're doing that, I need to get some ships with shields, or I'll be blitzed before turn 1 is over.

I'll supply the Gin  8).

Seriously though, I would be up for a challenge to another group. I also think it would be fun to just have a few games amongst all of us. The evenings are a prime time for these sorts of things to happen, since there is a lot of open gaming space and there is not a lot of scheduled events going on (seminars, tournament events, etc). We will just have to see once the official schedule goes up!

This is going to be epic...

Agreed. But it sounds like we're going to have some evening activities with the GNT crew, so hopefully we'll also have time to game. However...Ruckdog, you and I need to play some one-on-one DW. My FSA versus your Prussians, like old times.

How would we go about challenging the Firebase Delta guys? Should we make it a Kurak vs Zenian thing?

There is always time to game, if the halls stay open! 3-2-1 rule! 3 hours sleep, 2 meals, 1 shower, every day.

I wouldn't do Kurakvs Zenian since we're all likely all over the place...unless we want to "mix teams" to rep our Alliances :-)
