Anyplace that can hold a decent amount of people. Lets count on about a dozen people at least. So a mongolian BBQ, Gameworks at GLC, Dave and Busters etc.

We need to make sure it's a place friendly to those of us that can legally drink and those of us who cant. Just in case we have anyone <21. We should make it 18years old or only older tho.

How much money is everyone willing to spend?

I'm all for Saturday October 21st. It's enough time for people to set aside time and/or get off work.

My thoughts are we goto Dave and Busters or Gameworks. Lola I suggest you start a poll perhaps and see what people think as far as the restaurants go. Then you and I can call either restaurants and set setting things up. Timewise it should be in the afternoon. Perhaps starting between 5-7pm.

Come on everyone keep posting and tell us what u think.

My vote goes to somewhere that has drinks. Will there be people under 21 that are attending? we need to find that out first so we can decide what our options are.

Late october works fine for me.

we could always do Gameworks and they have drinks so folks that wanna drink can, and those that dont, its ok too.
Plus, we can have it eariler in the evening to later so under 21 can game if they want before 10pm. :)

Alright, I OKed it with the wife (although she probably won't attend). Either the 21st or the 28th work for me. I don't have any recommendations on where to go as I'm reasonably new to the area but I'm up for anything.

My wife and son were going to go last time but my son came down ill. Many people brought their kids last and had a great time. PLus we some of the younger ATOT's show such as Metaloid with his parents and they were really nice.

Some days of the week have unlimited gaming for one price. I'd be interested in attending.

keep in mind that saturday the 28th lots of people will be having halloween parties, so that might cut down on attendance.

Michigan has home games both of those Saturdays.

Iowa and Northwestern

I'll be in no condition to make the drive. ;)

Looks like I'll have to wait until the next party.

The 21st works fine for me too. It might be a little better as my wife's invited to a Halloween party on the 28th.
