If there's only 3 players I may ask at least one of you to play 2 characters for the meet (or for you all to control an NPC).

It's only a suggestion - we can do plenty of other things

Bring a laptop for Half-Life/Counter Strike deathmatches? Or a multi-player NWN/BG2 game? (I have 2 PCs that we can do this on so we'd only need 2 more, or 3 if Henry comes) -- [[User:Craig|Craig]]
I have a laptop and a desktop that we can do this on so we'd only need 3 more.
I have a wired hub, or wireless.
The original Half-Life can be installed on multiple machines :-O (and I have it) -- [[User:Craig|Craig]]

Late morning suggestion

  • A nice walk up the hill to the tower (takes less than an hour, but is relatively steep) -- Craig

Afternoon suggestions

 It's only a suggestion - we can do plenty of other things
 I have a laptop and a desktop that we can do this on so we'd only need 3 more. 
 I have a wired hub, or wireless.
 The original Half-Life can be installed on multiple machines :-O (and I have it) -- Craig
I don't have a laptop. -- David
I do have a laptop; it's a Vista beast and the wireless can be finicky at times. I don't have either HL or CS, so would need to do some quick cheeky installing... -- Henry
I´ll bring my laptop plus NWN and BG2. -- Hannele
