Pen and paper. A carton of cigarettes. A lighter. Something GPS-equipped. My bike. An amulet of extreme plot significance. A thermos of White Canadians.

Next time, we arrange our own identification system, which goes unspoken outside this board and its members via PM, lest some little O9 joker tries to pull Clapham: The Sequel.

Of course, I doubt highly I'll be attending any live events, unless New York members get a little spot of mad-dash-through-Bryant-Park fun.

In which case:
Pencil, spiral notebook, calculator, plenty of cab/food/soda/bribe/tchotchke money, good sneakers, binoculars, subway passes, MP3 player, hardwood baseball bat, phone numbers of people on the board/IRC team, cellphone, and friends.

We have friends? Confused

Not bad, they only cost $6,000,000 each :p Loan me a few $100s?


Wow, we're gonna need to find a lot of cubes before we can get that.

Radar Jammer? Steve, you crazy man, you... Wink

I've decided I shall also bring some homemade cakes. Possibly brownies (no funny stuff in them!), 'cos I can make them cube shaped.

Christ, I'm a geek.

I'm going to bring a hand-taser, for anyone who suggests we take a trip to Elephant and Castle.
Or anyone who seems like they would seem right at home flying away in a helicopter...

Well...now we have a purpose for this thread. For London, three camera phones per team (teams of at least three then I take it) and presumably enough credit to be able to send them someplace.

Pen, paper, A-Z, calculator and thermos of tea, G+T money...My laptop is hernia-inducingly humungous so it's staying put!

London A-Z. Notebook/pens/fun crayons. Chalk, for leaving legal(ish) 'notes' on our surroundings. Laughing

Walkie-Talkies!

I'd like to say a set of tools - a few screwdrivers, trowel for digging, some kind of prying instrument, etc - but they might be considered cheating if, for example, we have to open a locked chest (though wasn't one of the cases at Clapham forced open?).

A dictaphone or something similar could also be useful. I'd bring my iPod plus handy voice-recording attachment.

Shuriken.

Crossbow, with grappling hook.

Bright pink hoverboard.

In NY, what are we likely to need? cameras and stuff, sure. Do we think there will be moles? I mean *Of Course* O5 will be there. s/he fFreakin lives there. But there's almost no way of identifying the sot, so it's almost a moot point.

T'would be nice if we knew what games we will be playing, eh. I'm really rather hoping it's in keeping with the proud and ancient PCAG tradition Smile Thus it will be games we all don't know Smile unless we happen to play carcassonne, i dont expect to do very well at all if we do earth-games. right. I'll bring games don't suck at to share, like fFluxx and stuff. Smile

Hmmmm, I'll bring my cam phone (if I can make it) and myself, and money. And some of my ppc spares (I might finally be able to get rid of my 5 Whipsmart Wordsearch spares, oh and read between the lines).
