Easier to play, but nope, no running on the board; don't want anyone to trip and get hurt. That's why if we have fights, it happens next to the board.

(Setting something up like this on carpet is easy: painter's tape, done. On grass, it's a bit more difficult, but don't worry, me and the minions got it under control. ^_^)

Go Minions!

Lol. Checkers would be easier, but if we get enough, we should definitely try chess.

TanisNikana · « **Reply #52 on:** September 07, 2008, 10:52:55 pm »

Pieces: there will be more of them.

Also, can I get the minions at my house at 8:30 in the morning of the day of the picnic for preparation?

Two things about checkers:
1. when someone is 'crowned' they wear a pirate headband or ninja headband (possibly of the Naruto variety)

2. when someone is jumped, they are glomped instead.
we also need a 'player' on either side to command their 'pieces' as long as it isn't DBZ or Yu-gi-oh! characters...they would take too long.

TanisNikana · « **Reply #54 on:** September 07, 2008, 11:15:28 pm »

Now I was thinking if we did kings, the king would piggyback on an enemy piece, just like in the boardgame. Heh.

TanisNikana · « **Reply #55 on:** September 08, 2008, 06:51:26 pm »

I move that the skits are moar awesome. This is what cosplay chess is about.

Also, you're not a minion. The minions know who they are.

TanisNikana · « **Reply #56 on:** September 08, 2008, 07:33:54 pm »

Minions need to be here by 8:30 on the 20th to help with board construction and donut hauling.

DemonSpawn · « **Reply #57 on:** September 08, 2008, 08:14:54 pm »

Sir, yes sir.

My sister will be going with Alyssa and I, is that okay? (or else I've got no idea what to do with her). Right now she's kind of a minion in training...

TanisNikana · « **Reply #58 on:** September 08, 2008, 08:23:19 pm »

That works, as long as she helps out. ^_^

Darknight2433 · « **Reply #59 on:** September 08, 2008, 08:24:46 pm »

You know who's coming with me.

TanisNikana · « **Reply #60 on:** September 08, 2008, 08:34:03 pm »

She's not coming over here; I got all the minions I need already.

But you're welcome to come to the picnic.

That and I don't want Ari seeing where I sleep at night.

Darknight2433 · « **Reply #61 on:** September 08, 2008, 08:36:18 pm »

HAHA XD

Do I still get my ramune?

TanisNikana · « **Reply #62 on:** September 08, 2008, 08:48:16 pm »

I may bring a box of Ramune to the picnic. Maybe.

DemonSpawn · « **Reply #63 on:** September 08, 2008, 09:08:43 pm »

Suprised you have any left. O.o

nikkiolie · « **Reply #64 on:** September 08, 2008, 10:29:40 pm »

Ramune? I loves ramune

xxxchihiroxxx · « **Reply #65 on:** September 10, 2008, 05:58:23 pm »

Cosplay chess sounds fun to me :3 Ill play in it with my blue chocobo (if I can convince Kenzie to do my make up for me... x_x) if not I'll be kairi,

TanisNikana · « **Reply #66 on:** September 10, 2008, 07:47:51 pm »

Care to select a piece?

xxxchihiroxxx · « **Reply #67 on:** September 10, 2008, 07:55:32 pm »

*gotta change from chocobo to kairi

~~and erm is rook still availble?~~ just checked the first post, rook's taken, I'll take queen if theres not a reason no ones selected those yet

also do you know about what time youll start playing?

TanisNikana · « **Reply #68 on:** September 10, 2008, 07:58:06 pm »

The list is on the front page. Please also pick a color.

We hope to start playing at noon.

xxxchihiroxxx · « **Reply #69 on:** September 10, 2008, 07:59:55 pm »

white please :3

*and points to edited post*

noon? good I have a soccer game sometime in the afternoon... I know its after lunch though

TanisNikana · « **Reply #70 on:** September 10, 2008, 10:25:19 pm »

And no one yet has (publicly) noticed that we don't actually have a black team...

nikkiolie · « **Reply #71 on:** September 10, 2008, 10:56:52 pm »

well seeing how the picnic starts at noon I wasn't planing on starting the chess game till about one. That would give people a chance to show up a little latter if they wanted.

TanisNikana · « **Reply #72 on:** September 10, 2008, 11:07:03 pm »

The idea is to tell them noon, but not to start it until later. That way, the early people can take a break, rest, and talk, and the late people'll be on time.

nikkiolie · « **Reply #73 on:** September 10, 2008, 11:10:17 pm »

yeah that makes sense.

This is actually a good idea, for the K-con cosplay chess it took us way longer to set up than I thought it would. The whole drawing the board, writing the spots creating the armbands was somewhat time consuming.

Here is my apartment, where we get the board packed for quick deployment. Then we take it, the ramune, and the donuts down to the waterfront.

PockyReno · « **Reply #76 on:** September 13, 2008, 10:14:02 pm »

Reno of the Turks, reporting for duty!! *snappy salute* I will be a black pawn. ... Yes, pawn. Not peon. PAWN. DX

*Edit* If anyone needs me to help out with armbands, or something like that to separate the teams, I'd be happy to. ^^ I think I have some black and white fabric lying around somewheres...

nikkiolie · « **Reply #77 on:** September 13, 2008, 10:24:25 pm »

Yeah go black team. We are so going to win now that we have Reno ^_^

Cassiopeia · « **Reply #83 on:** September 14, 2008, 07:33:34 pm »

We need more people.

nikkiolie · « **Reply #84 on:** September 14, 2008, 07:36:40 pm »

I'm sure a lot more people will be interested once we get there....

nikkiolie · « **Reply #85 on:** September 14, 2008, 09:04:35 pm »

OK stop posting in huge font. People aren't going to join the team if you post in this topic. The people that want to join and read the topic have joined....there wont be a whole lot more that join between now and then....we will get the rest of the pieces AT the picnic.

If you want to recruit then go to different topics and talk to your friends and ask them to do it.

The list is updated. Directions and a map to my place will be posted in the morning.

DemonSpawn · « **Reply #90 on:** September 15, 2008, 06:54:33 pm »

You lie. Its tomorrow's evening, and still no map. Or directions. The Tanis is a lie!

TanisNikana · « **Reply #91 on:** September 15, 2008, 07:39:27 pm »

Gimme a second.

Darknight2433 · « **Reply #92 on:** September 15, 2008, 07:43:27 pm »

Ari has access to this thread.

TanisNikana · « **Reply #93 on:** September 15, 2008, 07:49:45 pm »

Nuts to Ari.

Anyway, directions to my house:

A. Take Google Earth (or Google Maps) and go to 45.496745, -122.833108. These coordinates are very, very exact, and they will put you within 3 inches of the front door of my apartment. Make sure to zoom in. A lot. More zoom. I'm not kidding, zoom in some more. It's a 3 story building. I live on the bottom, at apartment 414. Google Earth or Google Maps can plot directions right up to my doorstep.

B. To get there on train, take the blue line west until you get to the Beaverton Creek Station. Then walk into the castle you see, and all the way back until you find my apartment, 414. It helps if you look at the satellite map on Google Earth or Google Maps first.

C. My postal address, if you'd rather find (less than exact) directions with that is 15125 Millikan Way #414, Beaverton OR, 91006.
