Well duh: New York women don't walk.  They take cabs.

Complete lies.

Hush you and your real facts! Women are totally like in Sex and the City!

</completely awful>

To be clear: they don't walk in heels.  With all the grates, that would be foolish.  Still buy the silly tings, though.

I'd always take a cab too, but I'm the sort of bum who'd take a 1/14,000 chance.

Think I've taken a cab...somewhere in the vicinity of 3 times since I moved to the city 4 years ago.

So, uh. What are people's NYC-style plans for this thing? I feel like some combination of going out for drinks and hanging out in somebody's apartment playing Arkham Horror is in order. Or maybe a play? If you guys think you can handle my artfag tendencies.

EDIT: Also, artfag tendencies are a-okay for Grefter at least, I'd wager.

Absolutely.  I would definitely be down for a play.

I'd come for a play but I'm not gonna be able to do the whole NY thing, sadly. Ah well. Still, I sponsor you guys going.

I really really really would like to go to a play especially if you are in it. <_<

Sadly I won't be acting in anything while you guys are around.

If people are really game, tell me exactly what night you'd be up for some theater and I'll pick something reasonably priced for the group to see.

I want to go! And I'd drag Andrew with me. >_>

We get in eaaaarly Friday morning and leave in the early-ish evening on Monday, though, so I dunno whether that'd give us time to be involved. I got the impression these plans were mostly post-DLC for people who were sticking around. If that's the case... oh well, I guess!

Doing a play sunday night is possible in theory? Otherwise I'd think it would have to be monday/tuesday. Trying to get 23-25 people to NYC sounds like a massive headache.

I dunno about Meeple's house, but there's a damn good train from Princeton.  That wouldn't be too headachy (everyone aboard).

I would not recommend Sunday, just due to the amount of people leaving and not having to worry about things that might pop up last minute.

Otherwise, the bus to NYC is the easiest way I can think of from Meeple's house. There's a stop right near his house.

So... show?

My preference is for Sunday night or Monday matinee, though given that Andrew and I need to be at the airport ~6, that one makes me a leeettle nervous because I'm one of those insanely over-punctual (yes, over-punctual) people.

But I figure we should prolly figure out what we're seeing or buy tickets or something, no? Given how long the DL takes to make a decision, it may already be too late.

Due to Elfboy's appearance on Saturday, I'm gonna try to hold the FG tourney then instead of Friday. Anyone object to this?

Did some research, Monday is out. It's apparantly a blackout day and the only shows that ARE running start at 8PM. Sunday is... we're not so keen on Sunday due to the reasons in my previous post.

Tuesday would probably be the earliest optimal time for a NYC trip. I apologize to anyone this might effect.

Well, that cuts Andrew and I out. Maybe we'll find some other way to make it work for us. I hate going to the east coast and not making the most of it. The literal loss of time (3 hours, too) is a bitch I'd like not to revisit too often. >_>

Yo!

Since I will be leaving early Wednesday morning, if there is anything you guys want me to bring, say it now!  I might not see it before I leave on Wednesday.

Oh, maybe MMXCM and an endgame save. My memory is so faulty on some of the basic mechanics (some WE stuff) that this seems like a decent chance to get that straightened out easily.
