HI for those who wrote I just want you to know we are running another convention on April 29th. The same place and times. I will be reposting it as a new event when I get some time. Please contact with if you have any questions. The Private message worked great last time and I will see if I can figure it out. After this it will be awhile longer as the Church has no AC so the summer is out for us. Hope to See you April 29th
Take Care

FMGC 2012 - Gaming Convention - GTA CANADA

HEY! I don’t know why I didn’t think of this sooner! Would anyone be interested in playing a round or 2 of my (in)famous Axis&Allies Drinking game? It would have to be held outside of the convention, perhaps something to do after it closes at night? Any takers?

Clyde, you should hit the duty free shop as you cross the border. Alcohol/tobacco is rather expensive in Canada. I can’t cross the US border so am not that familiar with how much you can bring across.

Now if only I can find somebody who will smuggle some weed and feed lawn care product for my yard. Dandelions are taking over the neighborhood!
Cuban cigars are legal and plentiful in Canada by the way. Trade ya some cigars for weed’n’feed!

Ooooo! drinking is allowed!?!Â
As Jeremy mentioned … YES … but discreetly!! If anyone gets out of hand we’ll have no choice but to remove them from the building especially as we don’t have a licence for the event, only the RCAF Club having a licence for what they sell during the time the bar is open.

Yes, discreet. Also make sure you have a safe ride home/hotel. I’ve only been walking again for about 12 months since a drunk driver nearly killed me. I for one really enjoy the sensation of being able to walk again.

Yeah, guys, with all of this talk of rum and spirits … just keep it under moderation and control. I’m probably going to save all of my drinking calories until the evening after the event. Also, I’m planning on spending some money on the bar that is there. We are using their space so I would like to give even just a little back.

Absolutely have a safe ride, everyone!! There are plenty of taxis available, and I’m 100% certain that if needed those at the event that have not had anything to drink will gladly give others a drive!

@Young:

I’m going to assume they’ll be removed from the premises before that. lol.
That would not be the definition of moderation. ;) -
Gargantua and I have worked together to come up with a special “gift” for everyone at the event. Custom made just for the event!
I really wish I could come too (stuck on the wrong continent), as it really sounds like it will be a blast!

For those of you on Twitter and Google+ the hashtag for the weekend will be #FMGC12.

I’ve kicked off the membership drive for 2012. If you would like to donate in person, I’ll take USD cash at the convention.
I’ll actually take some CAD, it’ll save me a trip to the ATM. I’m going to set a limit at $60 CAD, total.
And as long as there is WiFi (as promised) I’ll give you your badge on the spot (as long as I’m not in the middle of a turn).
