Ales & Tales for Tamoro

[Eilye]

Dann,

If things do work out for you schedule-wise, it will be a pleasure to have you. One thing that was very striking in looking back through chat logs for "Tam-isms" was how animated and happy he was one night when Gori was telling a tale at Ales and Tales. So, your presence would be very meaningful!

Be well, and enjoy that cider.

Heya folks!

I will do what I can to make this. Real Life will be throwing a schedule change around or before November 6th. I'd like to perform as Gori with a tale of his (any requests?). Knowing Tam's gone is... still one hell of a downer. He wouldn't want us down for long though.

As Kaerri and I have done for the Tinkster and Godwineson, we'll be going by our favorite roleplaying and dining establishment (same place!) and getting a tall cool one in Tam's honor (Zombie Killer Hard Cider) and bringing the bottle home in his honor.

Honor and fun,
Gori a.k.a. Dann

First post updated again - I'll track any suggested songs there as well.

Thanks all for the great input and feedback.

No, I don't mind. Just no "Leave your hat on" though. hehe

All right, let's plan for Nov. 6th.

Also, if there are any specific song/lyrics requests, please post here or let Lhinn/myself know. I have fond memories of Tam singing 'Keelhauled' and 'Gimme Some Muffins'.

I think I'd favor Nov. 6th.

As previously stated, the 20th is perilously close to the holidays and I'd rather not push it into December... for several reasons one of which is the fact that Mia and Blynd are having an in-game wedding early in December (which I am coordinating for them haha).

[Veriwin]

Just throwing in my opinion here, but November 20 is perilously close to, if not directly within, holiday travel season. While November 6 is... nothing. It'd be a shame if some people wanted to attend this but couldn't due to family obligations.

[Aedon Durreah]

Either would work for me. Like Eilye, I defer to Tearna.

[Eilye]

My feeling would be to take the closest option (11/6), but I'd like to hear from Tearna.

[Byrcha]

Do we think that Monday November 20th is too far away? It would be closer to Yulefest (and after Harvestmath) but is also the beginning of the Thanksgiving travel week in the U.S. Otherwise we could go for Monday November 6th or even Monday December 4th (which fit my schedule). What say you?

[Aedon Durreah]

That would be so lovely Tearna.

[Eilye]

Ok, Lady B. As our fearless leader and the only one with a problem child schedule (j/k), I am leaving it to you to select our date. Pick a Monday and I'll update the first post with it.

I may just go ahead and decorate for Christmas. Tam loved it when it was done up for the holidays.

Yes, please! It will be more evocative of our past visits there with Christmas decorations up. :)

Yes, I've spoken with Animal House and they said they would be honored to come and didn't have any problems with a Monday night. I'm assuming we are still looking at November?

I believe you can ban folks from your house, though I've not had to do that before. I'd be pleased to give Byrcha a boot to use! hehehe

We have one of the large Gondorian fountains with benches and steps out on the lawn that would do nicely for nibbles and nobs. I'll rearrange the interior to make it group and dance friendly. :) I may just go ahead and decorate for Christmas. Tam loved it when it was done up for the holidays.

Aw, such nice news about Galzagar!

Yes, we can boot griefers from housing properties -- as long as we have permissions to do so. Griefers have not been an issue of late on A&T nights, but best to be prepared.

Thanks for arranging this, Eilye!
