Who here is interested in (or planning to go to) the Congress of Gamers on October 9-10?

For those that don't know, it's a relatively new local gaming convention that's run by some great people. I'd encourage everyone to check it out if they can, they are people worth supporting and, hey, more gaming!

http://www.congressofgamers.org/index.php

Unfortunately, it does intersect with one of my normal game days. So, I'm trying to find out if:

- you're planning on going to CoG -or-
- you're planning on heading to my place, but could be talked into CoG -or-
- you're planning on heading to my place, but wouldn't be interested in CoG

Based on the replies, I can figure out if I should host or go to CoG myself (which, like I said, worth supporting).

I will be at CoG. I will be working the snack bar! So if you are planning on going to CoG, please stop by and say Hi!

Hey John. Have you determined if you are going to CoG on Saturday or still planning to host? If the latter, I should be able to come over.

Also, if anyone is interesting in playing Dominant Species (http://www.boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/62219/dominant-species) I received my copy last week so I will bring it.

I will be hosting this Saturday, so feel free to come by, starting at 1pm, as normal. I'd still encourage anyone who was contemplating it to attend CoG, but if you definitely aren't up for that, come on by!

There's a chance I might be there from like 1-6pm, but I'm still not sure and would definitely need to leave early unfortunately. I'll try to swing by for a bit.

John, I was thinking about going to your place, as it has been a while for me. However, it seems like they're both the same difference, and CoG only comes once a year (at least AFAIK), so I'd figure I'll go to CoG and go to your place next time (earliest is 2nd week of Nov.)

There we go, decision made with minimal AP :p
