A new call for Seattle, I know you're out there... Options

[Cain]

I just happened to move into an old frat house in the U-Dist, and I've got space to spare for a game. My work schedule is flexible, as well. Anyone up for it?

[Method]

Cain: I would be down for a Friday or Saturday once or twice a month. Let me know if you get any more responses. What kind of game do you like to run?

[Cain]

Actually, I was hoping to get to play for once. :P At any event, I've lost my hardcopy core book, and I can't run a game until I can afford to print a new one (and find a Kinkos up for the challenge ;)) Is anyone capable of running if I host?

[Method]

Oh, well in that case I might be willing to throw something together.

I should warn you though, school can be a little intense for me (second year med student), so if I GM I'd need some time between sessions to prep. Every other week, or once a month.

I guess at this point it really depends on if we can find a few other people to play and what kind of game people are interested in...

[Cain]

Every other week would be best for me. As you can see in the other thread, my time in Seattle is going to be limited.

Maybe Steve can ask his group if anyone's up for a Friday night game?

[Method]

Hmm...

Cain: it seems this thread took a nose dive after our last exchange. I'd still love to do something if we can find some players. How long will you be living in the U district?

[Cain]

Until mid-march.

My roommate and I are interested in a game, so if we can find just one or two more players, we'll have a full group. Anyone? Anyone? Bueller? 8)

[stevebugge]

I'll see if any of my group is interested in an occasional Friday or Saturday game.

I can sometimes be available, I just need lead time to get my wife's permission - er-um make sure we don't have conflicting plans

[Cain]

So far, we have myself, Method, my roommate (a total Shadowrun newbie) and likely Stevebugge. That's one GM and 3 players. Is that enough to start a game?

[DTFarstar]

Good to know Seattle is relatively busy Shadowrun-wise. The Med-School there is one of my top picks. Too bad it'll be about a year until application time, and a year and a half to move.

Cain- I've kinda been waiting to hear back from Steve, but if he or one of his players is down I'd say we're good to go.

DTFarstar: glad to hear you are still considering UW. Unfortunately it sounds like I might be moving on to residency before you get here. :(

[stevebugge]

[Cain]

Okay then. Why don't you guys PM me, and I'll give you the address. What time Friday would you like to meet? I get off work at 5.

[DTFarstar]

Yeah, I took the MCAT and I made well, embarrassingly low if you don't consider the circumstances(25). Of course, with a job search and girlfriend problems and just general me not forcing myself to I only studied for 5 hours the night before with the Kaplan MCAT book, (did 600 pages in 5 hours so more scanning it into my brain that studying, I guess). I also had only had Bio 1 and 2 and A&P 1 and 2 as far as classes. Literally, I had never had a single chemistry or physics course before hand.(didn't go to high school- literally, not just home schooled, but period never had any of the work at all for medical reasons.)

So, when you consider that I didn't go to high school, only studied five hours(retaining information I read is one of my premier talents), and didn't have any of the classes a 25 is positively dazzling. (I know several people that rather easily got in with 27's and up) So, I'm more determined than ever now, since I'm sure I can do it and I decided to bite the bullet and stay another year in undergrad actually taking things like Chem, Physics, Microbiology, Cell Biology, Genetics, and Organic Chem. So, hopefully a year from this coming fall I will be attending... somewhere. UAB right nearby in Al, and UW are two I'm quite interested in. My sister and her husband(both 29s) are graduating from Creighton in Omaha and they have been quite pleased with it so it is on the list.

So, I don't know when you graduate, but from what it sounded like above if I DO get in at UW then you'll be graduating the spring after I start.

Probably should have put this in a PM because it really has nothing to do with the OP.... oh well.

Also -

Aww... come on Cain, after that whole recent thread with Frank and knasser don't you just want to go ahead and post your address so we can all come and visit? =P

Chris

[Cain]

:P :P

No, but I'll gladly put up my ex's email address, for spammers to farm. :evil:

It will be a sad day when Seattle looses Cain (IMG:style_emoticons/default/frown.gif) on the plus side i finally convinced my wife to give shadowrun 1e/2e a try again! wish me luck guys. This may be the last time to convince her its the best game ever.

[Method]

Wait, you're trying to convince your wife that SR is the best game ever by making her play 2ed??? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/eek.gif)

J/K. Out of curiosity, do you have regular group? Are you looking to join one? If Cain leaves in the next few months our proto-group may be hard up for people...

Shadowrun.... in Seattle???
What a novel concept.

If there are any open games anyone knows about, Please let me know,
I'm in the Kent/Covington/Auburn Area

The two games we're currently aware of are both in Seattle proper, one roughly every other Friday in the U-Distric the other weekly on Monday nights in Magnolia

[DocTaotsu]

There is a small chance I may be in the Everett 9 months from now. Where is that in relation to where most of you all are playing?

[Method]

Everett is a short ways North from both games. Probably 30 to 45 minutes depending on traffic.

[DocTaotsu]

Well it's a bit of a drive but what the hell. I'll be needing my SR fix if I'm up that way.

[Method]

How long would be in the area?

[DocTaotsu]

2 years
