i didn't see the need to gloat over what is obviously a very painful loss for all of you miscreants. just like lord "tom selleck" devonshire (of sicily), i am a gentleman of gentlemen. it would especially be bad form since it can't be attributed to any skill on my part.

wait, was it devonshire? i remember it was some proper english name.

edit: spain -> italy -> sicily

You got the Devonshire part right, but he was from Sicily. He was an Italian with the name of a Brit.

With SDCC, G-Fest and everything else coming up, Putt putt is probably going to be cancelled for July. Hopefully we can all get together in August. If anyone is coming to G-fest I am still planning something for all of us to get together.

^ Yeah, this month will be pretty busy. I had my birthday weekend already, then I will have a friend's bachelorette party to go to, then my bridal shower, then G-Fest, and then my friend's wedding all this month, and we'll have taste testing (wedding food) as well as a few other things squeezed in there somewhere also... Thankfully we have 5 weekends this month so we can fit everything in ;) lol.

I am definitely planning to go to G-Fest. I'll most likely go on the Saturday, but if you guys will plan a get together a different day, I'll try to go that day instead.

Hope to see you guys at G-Fest! :D And I really hope to make it to the next putt-putt tournament! Sorry I missed this last one.. We had to go to Brian's niece's 2nd B-Day party that day.

No problem, it's all for fun, we all have lives.
I'll probably plan for something on Saturday, I'll be there all day with Mary so we'll be chit chatting, tweetin' and facebookin', going to panels, and having a general good time.

^ Sounds good, I'll plan to go on Saturday then :)

I'm actually off that weekend so I might make it! IIIIIIIIIIIIIIF I'm not loaded with school work and crap, but I'm being positive.

BTW, anyone going to the joke-that-is Wizard World this year? I might go for giggles, I haven't been in ages, but feel that it'll probably be a waste of money.

Re: CASK Putt-Putt tournament of doom

Wed Jul 06, 2011 9:05 pm

Well I was going to go, but I found out they denied my press passes! I mean, NYCC let me in and that's a MUCH bigger deal, I may still go Sat, we'll have to wait and see.

Is everyone in this thread going to mini golf on Saturday?
Is everyone going to G-Fest on Saturday?
Dealers room closes at 5pm. I am planning to go to Rotofugi if at all possible for the big party 6-8pm. I will have to take a cab. Is anyone else going?

Re: CASK Putt-Putt tournament of doom

Wed Jul 13, 2011 12:15 pm

from what i can tell, putt-putt is cancelled for this month since g-fest takes precedence over putt-putt :) is everyone planning on attending the roto yo-yo afterparty rather than g-fest movie night on saturday? we should probably plan the sb gathering around one or the other.

also, linda, it would be very expensive to take a cab from rosemont to roto. it's almost as quick and much cheaper to take the el. just one transfer from the blue line (only a few blocks from the hotel) to the red line is all it takes.

Re: CASK Putt-Putt tournament of doom

Wed Jul 13, 2011 1:28 pm

I'm planning to go to both, and I will be in my car.. So.. if you or anyone (probably room for 4 people total (plus me)) would like to Roto afterwards, let me know :)

Re: CASK Putt-Putt tournament of doom

we're continuing the g-fest plan discussions over here now.

One more quick transfer to the Brown line Ultra dog :wink:

first: never, ever, never ever call me dog or dawg. second: it's only a few minute's walk from the red line station. the brown line is for woosies who don't actually live in the city ;)

I'd say you have to pretty brave to frequent the brown "It feels like it's gonna tip over any second holy crap!" line.

Re: CASK Putt-Putt tournament of doom

Wed Jul 13, 2011 8:46 pm

never ever never ever... That means all the time right? In my experience most people don't like to walk. And I think it's wussies.

Re: CASK Putt-Putt tournament of doom

Easiest way to get to Rotofugi from Rosemont...you take the Blue Line to the Logan Square stop, then take the #76 Diversey bus Eastbound to the intersection of Diversey/Racine/Lincoln.
Track when the bus is coming by using www.ctabustracker.com on your smart phone, if you have one.

Can't make it either of the events this weekend :cry: , but have fun everyone!

Re: CASK Putt-Putt tournament of doom

Thu Jul 14, 2011 5:21 am

“woosies”? oy vey, where did that come from? thanks for setting me straight, brydawg. however, the brown line stop is only a block or two closer to roto than the red line stop; not really worth the extra transfer.

i try to avoid instructing out-of-towners to take the bus because it almost always gets confusing or seems intimidating to them compared to the trains.

but none of this matters anyway since v is giving rides in her wedding mobile :)

Touche, you will be missed Minh, but you gotta save them ducketts for SDCC. Once the SDCC dust settles we will be getting together again. To anyone coming to G-fest this weekend, what time are you guys going, aside from volunteers and vendors because you guys will be there all day.

Re: CASK Putt-Putt tournament of doom

the brown line is the best line... it's like riding in the front car of a roller coaster. (anyone who
says different is a flaming-trouser liar.)

and REAL chicagoans bike. but only hipsters ride fixies. =p

Re: CASK Putt-Putt tournament of doom

What the hell is a fixies? Is that like a Pixies cover band?
