    So Joanna and Tara (Edda and Gwenevere) are in a play. I was going to go during this week to check it out. Tickets are $15, does anyone want to come?

    Word on the street is that they make out. Just sayin. :P

    Does anyone want to go see a movie next Tuesday at Metrotown? I'm not sure what's playing, but I haven't seen anything that's in currently so I'm pretty open to suggestions.

    I can't do this coming Tues but could go the following week (Tues 17th). Is Mission Impossible any good? Interested in seeing that?

    Really? Well, why wouldn't you come to:

    WINTEREENMAS GAME DAY!!!

    We are having another gaming day, so come on out and celebrate that most holy of festivals, Winter-Een-Mas!


    Saturday, Jan 28th

    ... 3pm-late


    The rules are the same:

    -Bring stuff to play

    -Bring stuff to eat or cash to order food

    -Don't invite people without checking with me first

    -Don't be a dick (that's my job)


    If it doesn't rain, we'll have a fire, and hopefully Cory will hyperventilate.


    Oh, also, I'm hoping to get an 8 player game of Halo Reach on, so we'll need four more controllers. It would also help if people brought a couple gamecube controllers for the smash as I only have two, and playing it with Wii controls sucks... Thanks!

    A bunch of game designers, programmers, artists, sound designers, etc. get together at UBC, form teams, and then each team spends 48 hours designing a game.

    Because playing board games one weekend isn't enough.....

    We're having the 'American Anti-Superbowl Superbowl Commercials (and superbowl probably) board game party!

    Feburary 3rd, 2012. 3pm-10pm.

    Located in Bellingham, WA. not too late since we have to work monday.

    Probably try to play some longer games like Arkham Horror, Railroad Tycoon, etc.

    We'll be ordering pizza, but if you wanna bring a drink or snack to share, that'd be awesome.

    PM me, or add me on FB so I can send out the invite.

    Well I can be quite hammy at times. Don't know about teeny though, I think I'm quite average.

    Game Jam was awesome! My team was 1 of 7 teams showcased out of 22 teams :D Here's our game if you guys wanna check it out: http://globalgamejam.org/2012/pyramid-defense

    I could gush all day about how awesome it was, but instead I'm going to suggest that something happens in Vancouver soon? Even if it's just a bunch of us going to a pub for food and drinks.

    Hey everyone. I'm trying to get a group together to go see Arrietty at Silver City Riverport on February 18th. (Time to be announced if/when Cineplex actually gets the movie into their schedule.) Anyone interested?

    **EDIT** I'm going with the 6:55 pm show, since my mom will be watching my kids and will want to go home eventually.

    (P.S. I'm not sure this thread name is entirely accurate any more?)

    I'd be up for going. I'm wondering if we should not remake this thread?
    We could start adding stuff to the OP...

    Does anyone have contacts for Absinthe?
    I know he usually heads this thread and don't want take his job...
    If not, @smalllady, do you want to? Worst case I don't mind starting and maintaining the thread.
