I started training last night. two pitchers, and a few shots, and while I don't feel like death, I don't feel great either. I'm thinking I will definitely take it easy this year.
I was honestly not planning on drinking THAT much at the TWDT. I'm a natural lightweight and I just didn't think that I could drink like I was 21 anymore. That all changed last night when I downed shots all night until last call. I didn't even puke! I still got it!
I'm taking my wife TWDT'ing this year as a birthday present and I worked up a cool acceptance letter for her. Let me know if you want me to upload the .psd somewhere so you can edit it for your own purposes. dtc-wsuv.org/amay/TWDTInvite.jpg
A fun little thing to do is to buy a couple of rolls of $1 coins for the drink buying, and call then Galleons.
The only downside is that carrying a lot of dollar coins can get quite heavy. Make sure your pockets are in good repair!

Already ahead of you there! Spent the past two weekends paying in $1, although it is a pain carrying a bunch of dollar coins.

That's super nice - Hope she likes it!
Have you trained your owl to deliver it to her? Let me know if you need help, I know a guy.
I would love to approach an opposing house with nerf guns and when we are within 50 or so feet, we unleash a hail of whistling nerf "magic missiles" flying from our "wands". That's probably discouraged...

Nerf rounds can still hurt if they hit you in the eye. Also, I think most bars wouldn't allow you to use them anywhere near their premises. I would just follow PAX rules for this.

Lindeman's Framboise Lambic tastes godly mixed with Young's Double Chocolate Stout... and a shot of Cake Vodka.
Anyone at my birthday party this year (Atlus included) would've seen me downing those puppies like no tomorrow

Also, I'd like to point out that I'll be at the Sheraton Pre-PAX Board game meetup well before the Pre-PAX Dinner and TWDT start, if anyone wants to pick up their beer steins beforehand. You know.. so you can have them filled up on the way...
And since I've finally been able to sit down and order the scorecards, here they are!
Wow! Those look fantastic!

Only question I have is if bars will fill your own glasses. Will it be a waste to take these on the crawl?
Would a shirt and tie be sufficient for proper school attire or are robes or a sweater vest required for completion of the bonus challenge?

I've rocked just a Ravenclaw tie (although last year I picked up the Ravenclaw Quidditch Captain t-shirt to go with it) and gotten the "dress up" bonus.

Just a shirt and tie would be plenty to count as completion. The challenge just requires that you've got the house colours on you. Hell, if you want to dress in a house themed steampunk outfit or as a tacticool SWAT wizard knock yourself out.
Case in point, I'm going as a Slytherin frat boy this year:
And last year I went as Hunter "Slytherin" Thompson:
The wilder people get the more fun looks we get from non paxers. I myself go with a green corset and black clothes.
A cheap costume (if not mentioned before) Go to Salvation Army or Value Village and get a black graduation gown and slap a house badge from hot topic on it.

You can follow @SlytherinDE whenever you want. It's fairly quiet now but it'll definitely light up come PAX. There's also the Facebook page for us where you can get to know your fellow Slytherins. I'll be posting stuff to both accounts there as info shows up in this thread so that people who don't follow this thread will still have access to the route map, challenges, etc.
