To take Arms against a sea of competitors
posted January 27, 2012 1:53 PM   RSS | iCal | +googleCal

Wed February 1 at 8:00 PM, Kelvin Arms
2424 Dunstan Rd, Houston, TX, USA (Map & Directions)
To quiz, or not to quiz, that is the question. Whether it is nobler to allow another week to pass, or keep to the biweekly schedule.
Or, to put it another way, it's time once again for our bi-weekly quiz, and I'm suggesting the Kelvin Arms again, on Wednesday.

And from the GWD website: Best team name theme for next week will be “We need to talk about Kelvin.” Think of a funny slogan or team name that includes the word “Kelvin” in it.

Runes, can you edit the event to show the proper date?

Arg, did indeed bork that hup. Had to invoke the mods, since the date had passed, but they fixed it for me.

Doth mine eyes detect that we have met the cap of 6 competitors per team already? I don't want to foul up a perfectly sized group by being the one who divides and thus conquers us. Just lemme know.

I say we gang up on Kelliebob and *'s and make them come, too. That way we'll have two decent sized teams!

I don't think it would be that much of an issue, especially if we stake out the vault again.

Houston: 310 Kelvin in February.

My +1 is now a maybe, so that would put us back at exactly 6.

Blargh. I am dying of something. So I am skipping tonight. Sorry!

Had another migraine this afternoon, and although it didnt force me to go home early, it isn't inspiring me to go out and play again tonight. Sowwy.

Sitting here all by myself at 7:45. I hope everyone else is just looking for parking. As for me, I parked in Scotland.

Sigh. I'm very very sorry. We'd just pulled into the parking lot when we got a call from one of our neighbors, saying "Your cat is on our back porch". So we turned around, rushed home, and went searching through that part of the neighborhood. At one point we did see a fluffy grey streak which might have been him, but that's as far as our luck went. Sigh.

We ended up being 4 people, and coming in 3rd - one point shy of second place. Not too shabby.

But I'm so glad to hear that you had a sighting! Did you ask your neighbor if you could leave a tshirt on their porch?

Nara had a great time. I'm going to try to convince her to be a regular, but her work may preclude that.
