Well, I was already excited. Now I'm really excited. Such great games, such fun. I look forward to seeing you guys play.

One of the things we're doing is asking for some help in the two-birds-one-stone variety.

Anyone who donates $10 or more to our Relay for Life page (located at http://main.acsevents.org/goto/WSIN) and contacts either myself, Christian or Bob via Facebook or e-mail will be put into our list of people who will get to play one of our games via either Skype or phone! This is a great way to get directly involved and it gives you a chance to be part of history.

Let one of us know before you donate if you'd like to be a contestant so we can make sure we still have room! And if you don't want to play, but want to just help us raise money to fight against cancer, that's OK too!

I'm bumping this to reiterate that we would still love a few players to stay up with us and play some of our less buzzer-happy games! Contact me, Christian or Bob for details.

I'll definitely try for something Friday night/early Saturday.

I'd be delighted, but I'm not in Connecticut. Still, I'm willing to come in via Skype any time you guys need me!
