| The Turkey of the Jungle once again
commands that the Kingdom of Loathing throw an official meet-up! That's
right: it's time for KoL Con 3-D (it's coming right for us)!
The event will take place over Friday and Saturday (and somewhat on Sunday) of
September 15-17th, 2006.
Friday night we'll be meeting at Gameworks at the Arizona Mills mall in Tempe,
Arizona. Those who pre-register will get free food and soft drinks there, and
everyone will get to buy all of the video-gaming and boozing fun they desire.
Mr. Skullhead has retired from his illustrious Dance Dance Revolution career,
but both he and Jick are open to Guitar Hero challenges.
Saturday afternoon, we'll be hosting a barbecue (catered by Sam & Dave's) at
the Kiwanis
Park in Tempe. Pre-registration guarantees that you'll get food if we run
out -- which shouldn't happen, but we're just saying -- and we'll provide soda
for all and beer for those over 21. We're still working up the list of
activities and games and whatnot that we'll be making available, but at
the very least, we suggest frisbee-tossing, watergun-shooting, game-playing, and general
roughhousing. There is a possibility of live music; we're still working on
that.
Saturday night there will be a costume party at a house rented solely for that
purpose, the location of which we have yet to finalize. Trust us, we'll let
you know. That party will reach a climax, undoubtedly, during a costume
contest, the winners of which are sure to make off with some groovy schwag.
Sunday morning -- which is more likely to be Sunday afternoon, if you've been
properly partying -- we won't have any formal events planned. However, there
will still be a ton of people in town, and there are bound to be several
informal breakfasts, lunches, brunches, linners, drunches, and dinners going on.
Temperatures will be in the balmy upper 90s for Saturday, so be sure to dress
inappropriately. Er, inappropriately for a blizzard, but appropriately for
hotness. We're going to have several outdoor swamp coolers -- despite what
Dad thinks, we are trying to cool the whole outdoors -- but please
leave your parka at home.
Hope you can join us, and we hope we can join you.
Wait, we know we can join you.
Unless you don't come. Then we can't. See what you made me do?
