You were there, Capntastic.  Toady drew a picture of you and we mounted it at the end of the table.

I was there in spirit, yes.   But pictures and other datums should be posted for the gratification of others.

I have some bad news boys, when we went fullscreen with DF the video went insane. I will do my best to make it viewable but... we'll see   :p

We still have the embark video and you can even hear tarn in it!

Everyone got so wasted that they couldn't give us a nice report of the meeting?

I would love Toady to make a DF recording of how he plays a game. I want to see him play the current version and just go for broke...make as much $value$ in his fort as possible, have the best army ever (lots of champions in great equipment), etc.

Is there any time limit to a DF recording?

Give 'em time.  It's only been 15 hours since we went home anyway.  Toady's not going to wake up for another hour.

Yeah, we saw it through the window and it looked like it was taking off right as you left.

Makes me sad that I probably won't be able to go to these things for a good 5 to 7 years due to financial problems, settling in, etc.

Stuff

The donation lion video at the bottom went through some trauma itself due to bizarre behavior of the video software (it saved over half the movie with audio only while we were working on it, so we had to trim out the zoom-in on the fragments/money at the end), and the focus isn't right (you can see the lion in a few of the pictures though), but you can hear it breaking in all its glory.  Including the meal, we received $246.23, which is cool.  Thanks!

Hopefully a few other pictures surface, since I know the ones we have on our camera are missing one or two of the people that showed up.

Anyway, it was entertaining hanging out with everybody!  My birthday is on the 17th and Fourthtriad's was on the 13th, and that works as well as anything for a party.

Damnit. I wish I was there. Curse you airfares!

Couple of questions though..1) What is the story behind the donation lion? And 2) At the risk of sounding like a creepy stalker, who is who in the pictures?

edit: Re-reading Toady's post...So the donation lion held all the donations from the partygoers?

Yes, the donation lion was the receptacle for all donations.
