I'm seconding this idea.

Yes! I never thought about that...as a side thing, how about we have a
tournament? Each realm has it's strongest warrior step forward to compete
in the grande tourney! We could, I dunno, roll dice to see who wins each
match or something . Any ideas to expand on this?

another great idea.

Anybody feel like tackling a big Inn?

With any luck, Shiri and I will also be there Friday early so we could also
help out with setting up.

Agreed. We should have a bit of a rough outline of everything before we
begin setting anything in concrete (or ABS, as it were :-)

I was thinking the same thing. I think three LEGO days would prolly be
good. Thataway, it could go right along with the fest. We could have the
arrival of everyone, setting up camps, etc., the meeting, of course, and
then all the other little things, like the smaller meetings, the tournament
(if we decide on it), maybe some sort of majick show by an expert wizard
(just imagine, a small stage with lots of logs to sit on all around it),
other little events, and such. Then, the winding up of everything and figs
departing with their newfound knowledge/deals/enemies.
