Any feedback from the hotel George yet Stewart?
Obviously a long way off ,so maybe no input yet?


martin

[Sean Clark]

Fingers and toes crossed.

Morning Chaps, I spoke to Kate a couple of weeks ago.
She is keen to have us all back in November.
I said I would speak to her again end of September and see how the reopening went.
With The experts working of a second wave of coronavirus in Sep/Oct ,
I think the big question is who wants to be close to others playing games?

Stewart.
WWW 2021
Weekend of November 20th and 21st.
Could you at least talk to Kate in the near future please and see if you can put this in as a provisional date ?
Otherwise other weekends in and around that date could be taken up at work, and I won't be able to have a "long" weekend for the correct time.

Morning Miles
It's to early to plan anything With the resurgence of the virus and possible tougher lockdown lasting longer.

I agree that the plague does  not even seem to be on the down turn yet.
My personal thought is that we should wait 2 months with no action at all and then stick our heads above the parapet to see what incoming fire there is?


martin

[Leslie BT]

Agree Martin, there are still too many unknowns.

I know the members of the group are desperate to have some gaming event to work their projects for exposure.

[Smiley Miley 66]

November does seem a good time, because by then most of us should have some sort of Vaccine in us.
So that's why I thought it might be a good time to start making enquiries.
Miles

[Wardy64]

Too many variables to plan for it at the moment Miles.

Dave & Ben

[Stewart 46A]

Ok to enable those with jobs that need to book time off and to enable general planning I have booked weekend 19-21st Nov 2021 ,

Games planned so far
Saturday night Simon will run 3 or 4 PBI/Crete games to play test his ideas.
Sunday Les will run Pony Wars so all bring your Western diggers please.

Friday Night ,Saturday morning & afternoon are open for suggestions
Martin I am sure will want to run MexRev to show and play test the rules.

Obviously this is hoping there are no restrictions in place as we enter the winter period again but the hotel is looking forward to seeing us all again.

Stewart

[martin goddard]

Don't forget Stewart that it is the 41st anniversary of The Jefferson Island disaster of 20th November 1980.
Incompetence followed by lucky escapes for all.

But that is a long way from Weymouth so should not put off more than two attendees?

Hope that helps.


martin

PS I would indeed like to play some mex rev.
Is Simon using PBI 20/20?

[Colonel Kilgore]

Martin,

I think Simon (and his willing Cretan victims) should indeed be using PBI 20/20. It would be rude not to?

This should add more fun and focus to the play-testing i.e. both of the new rules and the tweaks to them for the Crete scenarios.

Even if this event does indeed fall foul of the Covid curse, it feels good to be talking about it, and planning the games. So thanks for reinvigorating this discussion, Miles and Sewart!

Simon

[Stewart 46A]

Martin the ideas in addition to those already posted   

Friday you and I run a couple of MexRev games
And if you would run the following
Saturday morning Bloody Barons
Saturday afternoon mex Rev
Saturday evening before Simons Crete PBI a quick briefing on PBI 2020

I plan to run Pirate games Saturday  morning and afternoon

Sunday if Les doesn't make it across the channel
You and I can run a few Western games

That leaves space Saturday morning and afternoon
For another game each period if there is any volunteers?

Stewart

[martin goddard]

That sounds like an excellent plan Stewart.
Les is pretty reliable. He will be there!!


martin

[Stewart 46A]

Well it gives a framework for people to work on, it wasn't about Les's reliability, it depends on any travel restrictions, if he has to stay in a hotel for a week before hand i think it would be to expensive.
