Are either of them making the trip with a pregnant wife? I didn't think so. And I'll bet your wife would not be too interested in making the trip down here.
Maybe my wife doesn't want to go, because we drove 3 hours (each way) last week for a LEGO event, and we (I) have plans for another event next week.
Women. Gotta love 'em.
Well, as much as I'd like to meet Mario and Ralph, also hang out with Calum T, Jeff VW, and Doug C (that I met at Brickfest), or talk with other friends I haven't yet met, I think I'll have to wait.

That's what's killin' me!

I'm sorry to hear that. (I mean I'm sorry she isn't an AFoL, not that she's pregnant, she'll be there, or that she's your wife...)

Only that I enjoy being married... :)
don't you...

If anyone wanted to hear my opinion, I'd suggest Janurary. Mainly because some people (like me) may have FLL commitments.

For the record, I love to pick out flaws with the rules. Also, this may, or may not have been discussed in depth... but couldn't you put something of greater value in the machine to encourage people to put in more money (per 'turn')?
Well, I'll wait for the offical game.
Another item that some people may of interest... There is a LEGO group in Ann Arbor, Michigan (www.24tooth.com) that is having a 'Maze solving' event in September. I WILL be making the trip for that, and it's about half way to Toronto. So I'm sure you guys could come down for that...

Heather has said the same thing. Why do people do that?
