    Was supposed to be going out on the 24th but the dates been changed to the 23rd so I'm good to go for the Saturday.


  • Registered Users Posts: 30,123 ✭✭✭✭Star Lord


    24th is good for me I think!


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,695 ✭✭✭DinoRex


    I have moved since last time... but only just across the road to a bigger place right next to Priory Hall, so I hope no one is allergic to pyrite.

    Brilliant, as it's scary game night I'll wear the brown trousers

    A friend of mine wants to know if he can get a lift from the Tallaght area to this to save him a taxi ride from Dublin?

    I'll be going past Tallaght so could pick him up.


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 50,812 CMod ✭✭✭✭Retr0gamer


    Cool I'll get in contact with him and arrange something. Thanks a million!


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,695 ✭✭✭DinoRex


    I'll stock up on spooky chicken nuggets this evening.

    I also have a lovely Trintron for the older consoles now too.

    PM me for directions... you'll need them, I currently live in the centre of a post apocalyptic wasteland.

    The view of Priory Hall is exquisite though...

    Plenty of parking though, I guess....

    What do you need us to bring, if anything


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 50,812 CMod ✭✭✭✭Retr0gamer


    I'd like to bring the MSX but I feel that we'll only be playing awful horror games all night :)


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 34,528 CMod ✭✭✭✭CiDeRmAn


    So no Burn Cycle!

    What sort of output are you rocking on that?


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 50,812 CMod ✭✭✭✭Retr0gamer


    So it will be touch and go if I can make it tomorrow. The car exhaust just fell off my car as I was leaving from sligo, could be worse and I could have been in Leitrim or Roscommon. Anyway Depending on when I get someone to pick up the car I might not make a train home and would need a lift anway :(

    RGB only.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,695 ✭✭✭DinoRex


    If you and Sera can get here then I can put you up in the spare room if you don't mind an air mattress, haven't had a chance to get a second bed yet.


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 50,812 CMod ✭✭✭✭Retr0gamer


    I'll try my best, I have to stay here until someone collects my car to be fixed.

    My poor baby :(

    Just drive it without the exhaust. I'm sure it sounds bleedin rapid.

    Thanks for a great night of scary games and scarier player conditions to see the end of PT!
    Off to work I go, thanks end of BST!


  • Registered Users Posts: 30,123 ✭✭✭✭Star Lord


    Got tied up in a few things yesterday, sorry I couldn't make it Dino!

    Ended up playing Pandemic Legacy and before we knew it, it was after midnight... O_o


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 50,812 CMod ✭✭✭✭Retr0gamer


    Thanks for another great night!


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators, Regional Abroad Moderators Posts: 15,183 Mod ✭✭✭✭Atavan-Halen


    Thanks to the hosts as usual for an enjoyable night!


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,695 ✭✭✭DinoRex


    Thanks for coming, guys. Have spent the day eating the remains of the spooky snacks.

    Have heard great things, must pick up a copy soon.


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,019 ✭✭✭Touch Fuzzy Get Dizzy


    Thanks again for having us over, was so much fun. PT wreaked my head though.
    Definitely want to play the rest of Life is Strange.

    So, Chrimbo Beers!
    I know, I know, it might be a little early, but it's probably only around 4 weeks away from an early December party date, and that's what I'm after right now.
    .
    ..
    ...

    Ok, I'll spell it out!
    What date will suit people for the Seasonal Beers in mine?
    Unless you'd prefer a change to someone elses, that's ok too, don't want to seem like I'm taking over or anything, just I seem to have space for everybody, should everybody turn up!

    The possible dates then, I suppose the first two Saturdays in December, the 6th or the 13th, I'm not sure how work parties are going to go but I'll assume that there are those who may find Saturdays awkward, so lets include Friday 5th and 12th as well, just in case.

    Let me know, we can do the pressies then as well.

    As always, I can give directions to people, courtesy of Google maps and the more the merrier!
