Expect mid to upper 80's or hotter with high humidity(80%+). The last few days have really been toasty(93-95). Our pale asses need to move to Alaska.  :)

Not sure yet, I'm still plotting when we'll be delving into Castle El Raja Key for our after-hours game.  I'll post back next week, and if I don't, someone please PM me a reminder? :D

I'm auctioning minaiatures until 2:30 on Friday. Anytime after is OK so far; do not know what they have me scheduled for. It will probably be the big auctions on Fri and Sat nites, so I may be able to make it, if I'm still welcome. If I'm not dead broke, that is.

All Acaeum members(and guests) are invited.

However, please email me individually so I can get a count for reservations. They may even have a special room they can set aside.

Claddagh, eh? Good choice imho.

Forget the Ram except for early lunch; it's good but overexposed and almost always packed.

I can prolly make it; depends on when I start Friday night.

I should be able to make it; I've still got Friday afternoon open. The Claddagh is a good choice; I ate there last year, fine place. I'll be sending along an e-mail shortly...

See the GenCon boards for some comments from people about what they're putting up... but generally we don't know what's coming. More than 10,000 items arrive by surprise within a couple of days, and there's no time to produce or publicize a master list.

The custom Acaeum buttons were a special that I arranged last year (and paid for myself), but I won't have time to do that this time. I just opened a third location of my business -- in a shopping mall -- and I'm kinda buried...
