Currently, I have Masks of Nyarlahotep and a more recent acquisition, Horror on the Orient Express. But, Jared is currently running CoC for our bi-weekly sessions, so I don't know if we want to run it during the meet-up.

I have zero objection to playing a CoC game during PeCon. For what you've listed, I'd be most interested in Warhammer Fantasy 4e, CoC, and All Flesh Must Be Eaten. The two DCC variants also sound like a lot of fun. I'd not heard of them before but I see a couple gaming purchases in my future now that I know of them.

I decided to fly in to DEN on the morning of Wednesday, 30-June @ 8:05 AM mountain (local) time. One of my bucket list items is to take in a game at every MLB stadium. The Colorado Rockies have a day game that afternoon v. the Pittsburgh Pirates so this is a great opportunity to scratch another stadium off my list.

On Monday, 5-July, I fly out of DEN @ 2:55 PM mountain (local) time.

Southwest is screwing around with both legs of my flight.
They moved me to departing stoopid early (5:55 AM) on 6/30. Bullshit. So I reworked it and got better times than the original booking. Now I depart OMA @ 10 AM Central and land at DEN @ 10:30 AM Mountain so that's cool.

The trip back on 7/5 kinda sucks. Now I'm scheduled to depart DEN @ 4:45 PM Mountain and arrive at OMA @ 7:10 PM Central. Not much time to unwind after getting home since I have to work the next day.

Delta just issued a time change for our flights out to DEN on the 30th, also.

Our original schedule was:
JAX to ATL: 12:30 - 1:40pm
ATL to DEN: 3:00 - 4:30pm

Our new schedule is:
JAX to ATL: 12:40 - 1:50pm
ATL to DEN: 4:30 - 5:40pm

So looks like we'll be getting in about an hour later than planned, which may be fine since you all will be getting out of the game and heading to the airport to pick us up. I don't mind waiting around. Thankfully United hasn't made any changes to our return trip yet.

I've made another addition to the spreadsheet: Flight arrivals and departures. So I can have all that in one place to plan pickups and drop-offs.

The adventure, tentatively titled The Skull of Inklu-Naid, is something I'm toying with for publications and any feedback for the session will help towards that end. The adventure has combat, of course, but more than one situation that works best with players being thoughtful and creative with solutions to obstacles... :wink:

Pre-gens will all be 6th level. The classes include bard, druid, fighter, ranger, rogue, and wizard.

Spoke to Quinn about running and he said, he wouldn't be. Initially he thought about it, but he can't settle on anything he would really like to run so he's just settling for playing.

That seems reasonable. We've got 5 GMs planned so far for the weekend at least, with only 3 days of real play time that's a pretty full roster.

Copy that. Just wanted to make sure Q knew he had the opportunity if he were interested.

I put a session of Pimp: the Backhanding and my C&C game on the events schedule. I also put the chili on Friday evening's meal plan. Let me know if there are any issues. I'm happy to be flexible but ask only to not cook chili on the same afternoon / evening I'm running C&C.

If there is enough interest I can whip up some chorizo ommlettes for breakfast one morning. I add other fixings to the chorizo, of course to make them extra tasty!

@ alester - should we remove the Deadlands game from the spreadsheet since Travis' trip shifted dates?
