You know the drill.
League is on a FRIDAY this month!
Practice starts at 5pm and I will have Chili and beer(limited amounts since we are not big drinkers; please feel free to bring your own if there is something special you like to drink)/water/soda provided. PLEASE use/update the calendar so I know how many to plan for.
6pm start time for league play.
Address is 1353 MacArthur Road, Madison
Please use the sliding back door to enter. Barking dogs are nice. Pls do NOT feed the dogs.
Please remove shoes after you enter. Feel free to bring a clean set of "playing shoes" to put on.
Parking info: Our street is now NO parking on both sides. Feel free to use the driveway and pull all the way up and and double park where it allows at the front and back of the driveway. Please stay off the lawn when parking. If street parking, you can park down the road 1 block (the dead end to the left just after you pass my house and sycamore ave both allow on street parking, but please be respectful of my neighbors). You can also park in Cousin's parking lot and walk down to my place. Carpooling is always a good idea.
Game list of functional games is forever changing and things may have gone out to route between now and then (you just never know).
Excalibur, TX Sector, Congo, Corvette, FishTales, Baywatch, Robowar, South Park and BK2K are all likely league games

I appologize but "new things have come to light man"
Feb league will now be a Friday night. Too many conflicts on Saturday and a few people said they were not able to make the earlier start time.
This is the best alternative that works for me and also keeps me in good graces with the wife
FRIDAY Feb 20th. 5pm for warmup. 6pm league start.
see you all then. I appologize for all the flipping around of dates (blame Garrett since he originally had Feb

)
PLEASE use the calander to track attendance or in this case update attendance based on new date/time.

Bummer. My co-worker took vacation all around this time. I signed up to cover everyday for weeks on end, except the 21st looking forward to league and Schwoeg's. Guess I'll have to un-signup for the 20th. Now the question is do I sign up for the 21st and make that big money, or take both days off and win at Schwoeg's?

Sorry Ken,
I would suggest planning to come to Schwoeg's on the 21st. You need to win at both Madison Locations to really establish your dominance. Also winning at schwoegs means free drinks

The only thing I need to do to establish dominance is win the SCS.
But still want to play Schwoegler's

Come on now. You know for fact, the calendar changing will have affected those who don't check here as often as you and I. From what I remember of the old calendar you can expect at least a dozen. Probabaly more like 20.

Just asking for people to update (mainly since I changed the date), no more no less.
As a host it is nice to have as much advance notice as possible. I actually would like to see us get to a point where 2 weeks out we have a pretty accurate estimate of attendance for each league night. I find it very helpful and is a pretty minor thing to ask as a host.

You didn't just ask people to update. You added in that it appeared only 4 people were coming.
I know it's important to have an accurate head count, I was just pointing out that NOBODY checks this site as often as you and I

and that you should expect 16-20 + or- 4.

Current functioning game list
Centaur, Excalibur, TX, Congo, Corvette, FishTales, Baywatch, Robowar, WWind, BK2K, SG (if is not acting funny; still cant figure that out even after watching the recent Clay tutorial on it), and possibly SST (just picked it up and needs some cleaning).
I may parse down the list on the day of depending on what is playing well or not; you know how it goes.
Night Moves is offcicially dead so no cocktail action unfortunately (It makes for a nice table when working on projects though).
