I’m really looking forward to some trivia tonight. I sure hope others are, as well. ---

The BF and I might decide to come along and try this trivia thing. (He lives in Ballard, and we like trivia.) It’s the Old Pequliar at 8pm, right? Is there some sort of indentifying hand signal I should make? ETA: We’re not for definite though, as he has been quite busy with work lately. ---

Yep, the Old Pequliar at 8pm. There’s no hand signal, but when you get there you can ask the quizmaster – since that’s our own **Interrobang?!?!?!?** tonight – and he’ll point you in our direction. Hope you can make it! Fresh blood is always welcome. 🙂 ---

Hmmm…it’s not looking too good for us this week. BF thinks he may be coming down with “the SARS” and he hasn’t called to tell me he’s home from work. Are you allowed to join a team once the game is in progress, or must you be there for signup to play? If we don’t make it tonight, we’ll try to be there next week. ---

You can join in progress, as long as the team has space. 5 people per, y’know. If you don’t make it tonight, subscribe to the thread and think about coming another time. We’ll be glad to have you. ---

Bumpity-bump. I can’t make it this week. I’m trapped in 1960s France. ---

I don’t have rehearsal tonight and am planning to be at the OP. I might be a little late, though, depending on how long the lines are at the polling location. ---

I’ll be there, doing my best **Interrobang!?** impersonation. That’s right, I’m hosting! Prepare for 80 questions about Brett Favre. ---

[QUOTE=Cervaise] I don’t have rehearsal tonight and am planning to be at the OP. I might be a little late, though, depending on how long the lines are at the polling location. [/QUOTE] They’re claiming to expect 50+% turnout, so it could be long. I’ll be there, but again very close to or right after 8. ---

I should be able to be there around 6:30 or 7. Looking forward to a new host, though I fear he’ll concentrate on the 1992 Packers. ---

I’m 150 miles away, but I’m on my way home soon. So, I plan to be there for trivia at the OP tonight.
