Yeah. Lots of threads on the Starsider forums get drowned down quickly. Responding to it drags it to the top. the bump doesn't even need to be a simple "bump." It could be a bump that contains info.

Due to this being Finals Week and I am having off and on connection issues with SWG, I doubt that I will be able to complete the Jeopardy game pieces. I have the old pieces with the old values in my bank, but I know I probably won't get the new ones finished (with the new values listed on them). If anyone is interested, I used Armor Repair tools as the game pieces. They are pretty cheap on resources and you just rename the items before you finish crafting.

Also, due to some RL scheduling, I won't be able to make the anniversary event. Believe me, after two weeks of hell, I need out of this house. For those of you who have been through college, I'm sure you understand. For those of you who have yet to get to college, one day you will know my pain.

I apologize about not being able to finish the game pieces or make the event. Had the event fallen on a better date, I probably could have made the event. Oh well, i'm sure I'll make it for the two year anniversary. :-)

I doubt I will have much time tonight or tomorrow to get on. If you really need the old game pieces, you really need to let me know ASAP here on the boards. So, other than that, don't expect to see me for a few days.

I got the seating arrangements completed in the guild hall. But we still need to decorate the jeopardy board. Will there be time?

Guys... it's about time I explain my worries. We dont have a designated firework launcher, the 1 million credit reward, the tickets, nor the jeopardy board! It's kinda frightening that we set a date and everything but we wait till the last minute to slap this together. I strongly feel we should bump this event to next Friday... and really get together and set this up properly. It would only give us more time to advertise in the long run. Plus everyone is busy in RL, so should we really stress this?

i have all the money covered for the party so no worries there.
we need to set up the game board, we can use the old game pieces and just explain that prize values are doubled.
we still need tickets for the raffle to pick contestants, and tickets and small prizes for the 2nd raffle (i will give all my loot pieces and some spare armor pieces for prizes if need be)
for the fireworks we just need a few people to set em off and one person to kinda coordinate it (just gotta say"ok let em go!").

i would really hate to postpone this at this late time. we have advertised heavily for this. i sent email invites to several guilds over the past week. i'd hate for people to show up and no party. we have one hour, i know its not easy but i also know if we pull together we can get it done.
