Brennor Party 2008: Schedule thread

[Brennor]

Based on recent discussion, we really need to set a schedule of slots for gaming that will help us to determine what times we have available for running games.

• Friday
• ? - ? Arrival/Intro
• ? - ? Games
  
  Saturday
• 8 - 9 Breakfast
• 9 - 12 XCrawl (JP, Vman)
• 12 - 1 Lunch
• 1 - 5 XCrawl (JP, Vman)
• 5 - 6 Dinner
• 6 - ? Games, L5R CCG/RPG Primer (Vardaen)
  
  Sunday
• 8 - 9 Breakfast
• 9 - 12 Xcrawl Wrap (JP,Vman)
• 12 - 1 Lunch
• 1 - 5 Games, Wereworlf (Amaris)
• 5 - 6 Dinner
• 6 - ? Games & Awards & Selfgame (Bitom)
  
  Monday
• 8 - 9 Breakfast/Brunch
• ? - ? Departure

In the list above, read "Games" as RPGs/Open Gaming.

This is just a place to start (thanks to Vardaen for the base schedule)... please make suggestions.

Much like SCA events- lunch will be put up on a sideboard on Saturday and be something simple like sandwiches etc. Both lunches will be planned to allow mingling and continued game playing if it is amenable to all involved.

Also- I suggest that RPG gaming times be marked RPG instead of just games... just a suggestion though..

[Brennor]

I was actually using the Games for the timeslots because I figured that some people might wish to RPG after Dinner, whereas the previous sched had that setup as open gaming time.

Specifically for Xcrawl, so that it'd have a morning session, and afternoon session and the final battle after dinner.

In the above shedule, read "Games" as RPGs/Open Gaming.

Okay. makes sense.

[Bitom]

I would like to grab one of the saturday or sunday 6-? spots to run a selfgame.

Selfgame requires no chargen, no setup, and players can enter and leave at will without difficulty. So I can take in new ones as "mini-games" end and lose them as people grow bored.

Can't take the friday slot, I have an 8 hour drive and probably won't be there yet.

[Brennor]

Should probably also mention that the 6-? slot should probably be multiple slots... but it was easier to do it that way. That timeframe will likely be at least 6 hours... though if last year is any indication, 3am is not out of the question (ie: 9 hours).

[Connie_the_Fire_Element]

so true.. though it appeared last year that last 3 hours was all about the drinking...

Then getting your ass kicked by a cat... in very lucky special circumstances...

[Brennor]

quite true. still tons of time there though.

[Vardaen]

The Xcrawl Game will run Saturday Morning until Saturday Dinner time. 9-12,1-5. This day is the best for me, my wife will be at work and my son will be with his Grandmother. That will leave me free to play things on Sunday, but be able to bail if the son needs something and not impact the whole game by being the GM.

The Xcrawl might have to spill into the late night on Saturday as we look into venues to host, our best bet will kick us out Sat at 4, so we'll run short on time, so either late Sat or early Sunday to finish out. So far, other than Bitom's Selfgame thing, which I know nothing about, we have no other games slated for spots, but people have mentioned possible games. If no one does have a game, the Xcrawl can easily fill all slots.

Also- lunch on saturday has the option of NOT being a seperate thing depending on how people feel. It will be the least distracting option available . so we might be able to make up some time there.... I hope to see the site tonight/ tomorrow evening and i'll get some photos so we know what we are getting.
