    Well, that was fun. Turns out 4 fishbowls take a while to wear off. I look forward to seeing all you fine folks for another great(far-less liquor saturated) night at Wings on Wednesday.

    there's a burger king basically across the street. Unless you mean *actual* foodish, in which case I'm not sure.

    Hey, todays's Groupon is for a bunch of money off go-kart racing in Richmond. I bought a couple and acc3ss is as well. Coupon's only available for one day, so get it while it's hot. Otherwise we're going to be sad pandas driving around pretending to be mario kart drivers by ourselves...and I'll have *way* too many banana peels.

    oh ffs I wish I had known about this on the day they were being sold :(

    edit - haha you guys are seriously going to castle fun park all the way in abbotsford? oh god, well have fun! (My wife is from abbey so I have been many times, it's not exactly a big draw though heh)

    I wound up actually not buying the go kart groupon thing, mostly because I can't figure out how I'd make attendance work. Blegh.

    Awwww... I won't be able to come tonight. My M-I-L has just decided (literally, like 5 minutes ago as I was getting ready to head out and grab dinner) that she doesn't feel like watching the kids. *extreme sadface with possible, though unlikely, weeping*

    Reservation is set at Wings under PAX for 6:30.

    I'll be there around 6 to make sure there's no issues. We'll be taking up most of the lower section at the back (same space as last year).

    AbsintheMinded made the reservation, so i'm thinking they're expecting a certain # of people. I'm not sure how many last minute people can go, if any. He'd be the one to talk to.

    I'll send him a PM.

    I found out through http://www.meetup.com/Vancouver-Portable-Gamers-Group/calendar/14575681/, which seems to be for the same event and not really indicating any sort of reservation list.

    I have no idea who that is, it's definitely not Absinthe... Seems to be a different group booked at the same time. Or something.

    I'd show up anyways, we'll make it work.

    HonestD did ask about bringing his DS group along but last I was told no one confirmed. Accordingly there are zero spots in the reservation for them. If a lot do show up from that group they'll need to get their own table.

    There is some space under the reservation free so priority will go to people who didn't post that are actually attending PAX. So you should be fine to tag along with this being a very late RSVP. Lol.

    That all being said we didn't book the entire pub so there will be spots available at tables we didn't reserve if any lurkers or Ds entire gaming group shows up.
