The Duchess's Nanny: super!

Plain, simple Garak: Should be an interesting time.

The Duchess's Nanny: what date?

Mr. Templeton: That's because Stig and Shiren talk too much

The Duchess's Nanny: haha

The Duchess's Nanny: I think it is because Garak has been bartending...<react>

Stig Redfin of the Ukrann: ( December, right Garak?

Plain, simple Garak: Lots of games, unique prizes, and hopefully some other events.

The Duchess's Nanny: got caught up in his work

Stig Redfin of the Ukrann: 9, even

Plain, simple Garak: Yes, December 9.

Stig Redfin of the Ukrann: What's lined up so far Mr Garak?

The Duchess's Nanny: OH, You meanie.... I have to be in Penrith on the 9th... <sigh> *sigh*

Plain, simple Garak: The schedule is about half-full with games. Still looking for more.

Plain, simple Garak: The link is on me, if you care to see it....

The Duchess's Nanny: *sniff*.... Otherwise could have hosted some event games for you.. <grin>

Stig Redfin of the Ukrann: Will there be any new games?

Stig Redfin of the Ukrann: Penrith is near where you are Mr T

Plain, simple Garak: Yes, and there are even some we can't talk about yet....

Plain, simple Garak: new ones, that is.

Mr. Templeton: Yes, I lurk in a basement in lancaster

The Duchess's Nanny: <grin>

Mr. Templeton: She was pleasntly surprised, I think

Plain, simple Garak: Excellent!

Stig Redfin of the Ukrann: Fingers crossed, if you have them

Stig Redfin of the Ukrann: Does anyone have other ideas about what they would like to see in scifi? Tell mr T

Mr. Templeton: Yes, excellent idea

The Duchess's Nanny: and make sure they host most of the games in SciFi

The Duchess's Nanny: LOL..

Plain, simple Garak: lol

Mr. Templeton: I am of the feeling that it is really up to the members to create events but I will help out on the admin side if I can

Mr. Templeton: I only create the space, what you do with it is up to you

The Duchess's Nanny: well... being a happy Star Trek person... will be happy to host a themes ST event in the New Year if you

The Duchess's Nanny: like..... ?

Mr. Templeton: Hey that would be good... alos, I can twist...

Plain, simple Garak: I hope that you will attend my Star Trek-themed games then, Nanny....

Mr. Templeton: designer Tim earls into finally doing an event in here

Mr. Templeton: He is the designer on Voyager

The Duchess's Nanny: I will for sure! <grin>

The Duchess's Nanny: That would be fab, T

Mr. Templeton: and was interviewed by me in Star trek Monthly last month

Plain, simple Garak: Nice...

Mr. Templeton: I've know him since he worked on babylon 5

The Duchess's Nanny: Well.. it would seem the SciFi opening event prizes are still highly sought after....

<ESP from Lady Lin: you here?>

The Duchess's Nanny: so, we can have some time to think up some realy doozies.. <grin>

Mr. Templeton: Really? That's good news...

<ESP from Lady Lin: where are you?>

<ESP to Lady Lin: black hole bar>

<ESP to Lady Lin: hiya!>

Stig Redfin of the Ukrann: Problem is prizes right now -- there's a limit on what is available

The Duchess's Nanny: and seeing how everyone has enjoyed dressing up for Halloween.... it will give everyone an excuse to put

[Corrupted text from The Duchess's Nanny.]

<ESP from Lady Lin: I'll be right there>

Mr. Templeton: Yes

Plain, simple Garak: Nanny, if you get to the point of planning an event, and if I can be of assistance, please let me know.

The Duchess's Nanny: Thank you Garak... <grin>

<ESP to Lady Lin: cool>

The Duchess's Nanny: I will ask for help for sure....

Plain, simple Garak: YW! <grin>

The Duchess's Nanny: especially since I haven't got a clue how to do a webpage. <react>

Plain, simple Garak: If you bookmark a page on my site, you can reach me by E-mail at any time.

Stig Redfin of the Ukrann: I will do a tour on your event day btw Garak

Mr. Templeton: Deadly in the wrong stomach

Lady Lin: Thats cool<grin><grin>

The Duchess's Nanny: well if your event is in December Garak....

Plain, simple Garak: Yes?

The Duchess's Nanny: how about we aim for Feb or Mar or April?

Stig Redfin of the Ukrann: Good idea, maybe one every three months rather than overdoing iit and folks get blase?

Plain, simple Garak: Sounds fine with me.

The Duchess's Nanny: at least one every 3 months I would say.... <grin>

Plain, simple Garak: Unless we want to have one every week, and focus the attention of the Avi's on Sci-Fi.... <shrug>

The Duchess's Nanny: Maybe we can talk to the designers about space related event prizes.... that can be 'recycled' in different colours?

The Duchess's Nanny: for various events?

Mr. Templeton: well, we could always have an event straight after stig's tour, perhaps

The Duchess's Nanny: yes <grin>

Mr. Templeton: and maybe have clues being left around that stig could hint at on the tour

Plain, simple Garak: That would seem to be the current challenge, the prizes. Perhaps there will be more options available from the Team in another couple of months or so.

Stig Redfin of the Ukrann: Yes, I could do that

The Duchess's Nanny: before I forget........ let me give you my email address......

Plain, simple Garak: OK...

The Duchess's Nanny: we can keep in touch about this

Stig Redfin of the Ukrann: and on my left is a lovely NOTE
