Steely Dan is a band, right? I’ll be there. ---

Steely Dan isn’t _only_ a band, IIRC. However, I’ll be at an Earshot Jazz Festival event this evening, so I can’t make it. ---

I’ll be showing up late, and I know that Steely Dan is some sort of risque play on words. Or something. ---

**November 10** I’m in for tonight. Anyone else? New hosts – usually play on All Joy, No Division. And y’all requested a Law & Order round, so **stargazer** had better show up. ---

Oh, that’s tonight? I’m busy. HA! Fooled you all, didn’t I? 😉 Don’t worry, I’ll be there. **Cervaise** is hoping to show up, too, but might not be able to make it. ---

I shall attend. I’ve watched some Law & Order over the years, so maybe I’ll remember a detail or two at the right moment. ---

I’ll be there, exceedingly late as usual (9ish.) ---

I’ll be there very close to 8. ---

I will not be able to join in tonight. Good luck, team. ---

I can’t make it tonight, either. We may be teamless. ---

Will we be teamful tonight? I was planning to be there. ---

I’m planning to be there, and I might have baked goods to bring with me. Cervaise is planning to be there, too. ---

I can’t make it. I’m in Sun City West. ---

I want to be there, but I doubt I’ll manage it. The current project is a black hole, warping space and time in a most unpleasant way. ---

As I currently understand things, tonight we will be without **Interrobang!?**.\* Dave & Emily are hosting, and they’ve leaked that there will be a round on ‘Avoiding Matrimony.’ I’ll be there. Looking forward to it. \*I had trouble deciding if this sentence should have a period at the end, because of the two punctuation marks already present. I decided to go with the period. Probably the wrong call, but what the heck. And now there’s an asterisk as well. ---

Confirming: I won’t be there tonight, hosting or playing. (I’m attending Ignite.) Wishing: I could be in two places at once doing two completely incompatible tasks. Announcing: For the Twitterfied, there’s a new OP Trivia account to follow: @OPtrivia ---

Oh, that sounds like a fun round! I can’t be there tonight, unfortunately. **Cervaise** says he’s out, too. ---

Starting to look like I may be playing alone. Oh, well. Maybe I’ll drink lots of beer and aim for the swag. ---

**Dec. 8** I’m in the later stages of a cold, but I’m coming anyway. Anyone else? Hosts tonight: The Ted Danson Experience. Selected round topic: the Discovery Channel. Also, there’s a “funniest team name” prize this evening. ---

I’m in - and I watch a good deal of the Discovery Channel, so I might be more helpful than usual! I haven’t heard from **Cervaise** yet - I’ll post when I do.
