Monthly gaming get together

[Mantis]

Since our last one didn't really happen I agree that we should do it around this time, especially with Christmas being around the corner. I'm not sure what my weekend schedule is so I'd have to get back to you. As for the 23rd that might be possible but I'm not certain yet. Do you mean Sunday at the end of your first sentence? Unless it's some kind of parallel universe thingamajig.

God damn it. Mix ups like that are embarrassing. I meant to say this Friday. I'm not opposed to doing it on Sunday. I'm kind of wondering if it would be best to wait until New Year's Eve since a lot of folks are probably going to be at home with their folks during Christmas but we'll see what the others will have to say.

The good news is that I will be available both tonight and Sunday. (I too will be unavailable for a lot of Saturday.)

The bad news is that I'll be very much AFK on New Year's Eve as I'll spend it with family. However, I'll be home on the 23rd. I'll also give Denim a notice about this.

[Mantis]

Er, so, tomorrow night then?

[Starwind55]

Sure. I was ready for Friday but I saw that you were away on Steam so I didn't know if you were doing something else or not. I did PM pseudohippie about getting together but I didn't hear back from him.

So this gaming gettogether was a success after a bumpy start in getting a Doomseeker server to work. We started off with a coop game and then a rather satisfying shotgun death match. It was like the duel between Gene Starwind and Leilong, only with more shotguns and midi music. Overall, a good time by all. The next gaming session will be on the 23rd. If folks want to get together of Friday the 22nd, I'm cool with that too.

Haha, if only there was an Outlaw Star WAD. The 22nd should also be fine with me.

It's been awhile since we've done this so I think we should try to get back in the swing of things. And it's fitting since next week is my birthday! I was thinking to celebrate, we could play classic Doom coop for those who want to join. Hell, maybe we can even watch that Doom movie that came out years ago for a laugh. Anywho, let's see who is interested in joining up and then take things from there.

[Mantis]

Yeah, I agree. Happy Birthday in advance. That sounds like a great idea. Perhaps we could find some kind of mod that improves its co-op functionality. I'll certainly take a look. Oh man, that one with The Rock? Yup, I can see that being one of those "so bad it's good" experiences! Anyhow, just let me know if you have any particular day in mind. I should be fine whenever.

Thank you good sir! I'm not sure of any mods that can do that, but I'll keep an eye out for it as well. Honestly, I haven't seen the Doom movie in such a long time that I barely remember it aside the FPS scene and one line of dialogue but I figured it be fun to watch for the hell of it. I'm free this Sunday so as long as everyone else who decides to join us is cool with it then I have no problem with it.
