(subtitle - I am slow, I know.)

So, it came up that some of us would be interested in forming a sort of league amongst ourselves. Anyone who is interested should let me know, drop me a line here. Let me know what days would work for you, where you'd be coming from and any lanes you've had experience with (good or bad).

I know so far Mike, myself, David, Jim and Sean are interested, though some of that is dependant on the whens and wheres and all of those details.

If we get enough people we can get shirts and stuff. C'mon. It'd be fun.

Coming from - work (Renton)
Lanes I've bowled at - There's one near the 405 / 90 interchange in Bellvue (AMF Bowling). It was nice (albeit expensive, I think - don't know for certain, it was the company dime)
I've bowled HELLA at the bowling alley in Auburn near the skate rink back in the day (I don't know if it's even still there.....)
I bowled at this place in Kent Valley. It was a hole.
There was the bowling alley that Phokus played a show or 2 at. That place was pretty nice, but I never actually bowled there....
Narrows Bowl in Tacoma is good. Only bowled there once.
That's all I can think of, but if you open a phone book you can find a ton.

Where?
When?
How often?
How much?
How many do you need?
How soon?

Where is what I'm trying to figure out.
When is why I'm aking for who has what days open.
How often would be once a week.
How much is rather co-mingled with the where question.
How many would be as many as I can grab but I don't want to start without enough for at least two teams of four.
How soon would be hopefully in the next few weeks.

Depending on who else is involved and where it is, I may be interested.

My weekends are pretty full. My Wednesdays are full.

My Tuesdays will clear up as of the 15th.

Or we could go with one team and join an existing league.

It would pretty much have to be Fridays for me, and even then it would be dodgy for me. :( Stupid 60 miles.

We'd have more people than one team would allow, I think. We can join an already existing league as well. That takes much more research and ability to get to various alleys to ask questions.

Making up our Own Damn League would certainly give us much more flexibility with times, yes indeed.

Exactly what I was thinking. It generally allows for more felxibility all the way around. Fridays sound excellent to me but Mike and Leigh are starting up their movie nights again and that is on Fridays, so.... We'll see what's up there.

I'd like to play, but starting in January, my schedule is Shite. I have Mondays free, then class on Tuesday-Thursday. Fridays I'd have kids. So basically Monday. And I suck at bowling anyways. :P

GamerLeague!

We could have a team of Board Game Geeks, and a team of Role-Playing Game Geeks, and a team of PC Gamer Geeks and Console Gamer Geeks and ... and ...

Damn, I'd have to join 3 out of the 4 leagues (and perhaps all 4 depending on how you classify them...)

We could alternate weeks . . .

one week - movie night,
one week - bowling.

That could work. *ponders*

I couldn't commit to joining a team unless the team had a really good name.

See that gauntlet?

I'm interested. I may not be able to participate until February, but yeah! Sounds like fun!

And I like the name "Our Own Damn League."

Well, we seem to have a name for the league but individual teams don't have names yet. Why don't you help make a team and then craft a name?

It's only ONE LEAGUE.

Just 4 TEAMS!

And the Roleplayer Team would probably have to be two teams -- the d20 team and the non-d20 team.

DAMN!

I can't bowl on 5 teams - my arms would die!

I know. I can't bowl on all of the teams either. Hrm.

I demand a miniatures gamer team!

The closest I've ever come to regular bowling is having a rug that really ties the room together.

Other than that, I'm a much more intermittant bowler.

That and I'm about as good at bowling as I am at designing and arranging shrubbery, which is to say, not.

I'm not even very good at drinking pitchers of grody american beer.

Bah. The point of this is not to be good but to have a good time. Besides getting better happens if you play more often.

You in?

I can't believe I forgot that one!

Does this mean you're considering my team divisions?

You're just trying to marginalize me! I see through your protestations!

Possibly, though we'll see on who we get first before we chop things up.

Who's on first?

From: [identity profile] gamethyme.livejournal.com
I'd be up for that.

We could set up an LJ Community!

Like [livejournal.com profile] oodl (Our Own Damn League)

I'd definitely endorse that. I'm always nervous about doing anything "every week," just because I have so many other things to do.

Do it, Chris. You know you want to.

Jim, you need a 'bowling' icon.

The soccer icon is used for sports. Bowling isn't a sport! It's an excuse to sit around in bad shoes and drink beer!

If we actually pull this together, I'll get a bowling icon.

Right after I get a music icon (because Soundwave really doesn't cut it) and a Blood Bowl icon and a Warmachine icon and a work icon and...

I gots a War Machine Icon.

It's ... my Presssscioussssss ...

Jeff and I could be interested depending on when it would be (much like everyone else). Don't know about the rest of the House though.

So, I'm only a little bit of a geek. And I can't bowl either. But I'd love to toss a few down the lane with y'all. I have no current time demands. So I'll just keep watching here.

Besides, I already have country music as an excuse to drink beer.

I'm free pretty much every night during the softball off season unless there's a tour that week

The one by the rink in Auburn is still there.
