we made the basilisk take a vacation; the statue removal was really getting expensive. and Nix & Nox aren't big fans of chicago winters so they usually head down to florida in december.....

I'm trying to remember, did you pick up the basilisk at the GenCon auction in 89 or 90? IIRC, they went for less than $500 back then.

[quote="bombadil"]That was before we discovered it, forcing him to move the whole thing to a nearby site called "Chicago".

Could you be a little more specific please?

I would like a paid entry into the 2009 World Series of Poker Tournament in Las Vegas, $1,500.00 event (No-Limit, Hold'Em).

OR

An OD&D brown box :wink:

Something lame like the first dungeon I ever wrote - I even made illustrations ala S1 (I think they were pretty bad I was 13 at the time!).

Or maybe my first character on that old D&D light blue character sheet.

For reference, I am talking about the summer of 1978 when I first started playing...so it was quite some time ago.

And I could've bought these damn modules off the 1$ rack!!!

I live on the SW Side of Chicago by Midway Airport, and my game (tomorrow) isn't until the evening [We do play a 3.5 AD&D campaign].

So if you want to come in the afternoon, sit back and have a beer somewhere, watch a game, break out a board game, etc., I could host...

... hell... if you want to play later in the evening for the D&D Game, that would be great too...
