Hi
oh .. you meant people fFrom scotland ... right ...
I'm an 'Almost definitely'. I will have school, but I cannot think of a better reason to take a night off my studies -- and best, I can insist it's fFor The Academy! So I'm still technically going to school!

I just feel kinda sad that New York event is a versus affair.
I feel like we're missing out on the whole "run around like loons" dynamic.
Do I expect to win?
Let me answer that with this: no.
So, let's see... Chess, Poker... down with that.
And there's... Go... I remember it... sort-of; Othello-esque.
Further on... Yumisk, Twin-Wheel, Pyramid, Clash, Commit, Advantage, Territory, Rejection and Da-Quan...
Um... pass?!
OK, games I found on Wikipedia:
Chess
Poker
Go
Pyramid A
Pyramid B
Maybe this is related to Commit?
The rest yield nothing even remotely game-like.

Where'd you get the list from? The kids in Granier's diary have een playing pyramid, so hopefully the next entry will have a full set of rules and detailed analysis of strategy!

Possibly he got them from the PCAG site ?
There's some really interesting stuff on there - it looks likely that we might be playing 'Clash' at some point...

If the square mile of central london that they mention turns out to be clapham common, I'm bringing a shotgun.

I possibly will be attending the London meet, depending on exact date and prior commitments.
Will be heading in from the Coventry area if I do though.

Have a threesome making the short trip to London. Cant wait
Love the idea of the new york one though.. actually taking part in the PCAG in one on one deathmatches! How can you guys be sad about that? Id love it.
But the scavenger hunt around london sounds great.. hopefully they'll be plenty of events to choose from. Picadilly Trocadero is like home to me.

I have spent far too much money in Trocadero! Let's hope we have to keep away.
Mind you, Playlounge is bound to be included.
