    2 people have already said they're coming - I'd be interested if you could make space for one more? but if that's not going to work out I'm happy to wait till next time - Risk is a bit meh.

    I'll do my best to be there, and I can confirm that in nearly a year neither Daave nor algorithm_colon have tried to murder me (though Daave's cooking came close once!). Risk Legacy is better that you might think, particularly when you've played a few games, especially when Daave tried to help me out by *spoilers* and ended up *spoilers* me instead, leading to the rise of *spoilers*. That was an awesome game...

    So, don't be shy, come along. There's no obligation to play Risk and plenty of other games will be played. However we might need to establish a secret password otherwise you end up playing a 4 hour game with a stranger (who has made no promises about not being an axe murderer) over a simple case of mistaken identity!

    I am going to slightly highjack this handsome thread to say that for any RPS in scotland there is an edinburgh gaming group that are friendly, would be nice to play with some RPS'ers!

    I'm going to the Social Club the night before this, so you'll probably see me here. What's the nearest tube station, do you know?

    I believe it's St James Park from having had a poke around the site! Do we need to confirm or something btw? Looks like the link has "spare places" listed.....

    It's St James Park tube station but I usually walk from Victoria. I would sign up and claim a spot, I've never known them turn anyone away, but they can get a bit grumpy if a load of unannounced people turn up.

    I hadn't realised there was a social club, so I may very well turn up to that too.

    Right sod it I've signed up and committed!

    Should be fun, Daave what time are you guys planning on turning up? I can get up to London for any time. Will probable jump off at Waterloo or Charing Cross and walk from there, anything to skip the underground!

    P.s. If this is a elaborate double bluff to attract potential murderees I'll not be best pleased ;-)
    P.p.s. Murderee should totally be a word.

    Well the guys doing the murdering dont want to get murdered, so maybe we just read the thread title wrong.

    That's the problem, it's GW HQ. Just a bit of boardgaming, find the GW crowd a bit weird and all.

    Fair, most warhammer/40k players i know would be a lot more interested in boardgaming or role playing than the general populace though. We have both done scientific studies and come up with different results, who'd have thought it.

    Coolio I'll head up for 11 then. Be nice to make a whole day of it considering the trip ;-) I'll be the one looking uncomfortable!

    I've always been interested in these Board game meets, but shyness, distance and the fact that I'm 16 have kept me away. It's looking likely, however, that I'll be attending Rezzed this weekend, which I hear will have an area set up for that very purpose. Apricot, Sarigs - I'll hopefully see you there!

    Any others going?

    I'm in the Brentwood area of Essex looking for a similar regular group, anyone else out there? Really want to get into a Descent campaign but open to anything. Except being murdered.
