F2F 2: Is there anybody here that hasn't slept together?  

Plan what to do, what to wear (you can never go wrong with a corset), and get ready for the next BuffistaCon: New Orleans! May 20-22, 2005!

Sure thing Sean, only we're talking about dealing with folks that are throwing darts for fun,

I've never played for anything but fun.

Heck, even most of the dart leagues use nylon tips now.

Not back in Michigan. There wasn't a single bar I frequented back home that used those. All my bars had boar-bristle.

Gotcha. I'll be playing with the auto scoring boards, I'm a lazy ass.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I for one don't want some of our wonderful Buffista friends armed with a sharp dart after they've had a dozen or so drinks.

This is what I meant. I grew up using the real darts, on a real board, since my parents had one, and the others feel wrong, but not as wrong as turning someone into a Xander.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

There was a pool table in the hotel bar at the first F2F. That's all I've got, so I'm going the stand with Sean in the real darts corner. (Not that I play, it's just the principle.)

If you'd get some sleep once in a while, you probably wouldn't make mistakes like that.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

I haven't played pool in years, and I wasn't any good then either, but I'd love to join a Buffista table.

Of those sticking around for Sunday night, would any of you be interested in dining in the Tabard's garden patio (here's a look at a sample dinner menu)and then heading upstairs for drinks, conversation, and whatnot?

Sounds lovely. I’m in, regardless

Well - does anyone play pool? 9-ball to be specific, but really, any form of pool? And if yes, is there a pool parlour anywhere nearby for an outing? Because damn, do I miss 9-ball.

There are a few pool places in town. There’s a Scottish pub near the hotel that has a pool table. And darts, for those who like that sort of thing :)

I'll be on the hunt for a glass of single malt older that me, but I don't think I could afford to buy an entire round of that. I'd happily do a round of 14 year Oban or similar though.

Scottish. Bar.

the hardest to learn / was the least complicated

I love pool, even though I can really suck at it. It's weird, though -- other times, I am en fuego. It's Random Pool Skill.

Also like darts, at which I also suck.

And then there'll be the requisite fencing....

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!

Me + hand-eye coordination: funny for everyone else. I have no skills, at anything. Though I don't mind being the person who holds the beer and talks to the people not currently playing/shooting.

Heh. I didn't even notice the numberslut. Woo.
