Title: Arimaa Party in Dallas
Post by omar on Apr 1st, 2008, 9:18am
I am planning to have an Arimaa party at the park this Sunday. My self, Aamir, Fritzlein, and Elmo will be there. Other attendees though unconfirmed as of yet may include: Naveed, ArifSyed, soldier and sulimp5.

It would start at 11am CST. Pizza, punch and animal crackers will be provided :-) Feel free to bring other snacks you can share. Also bring your Arimaa sets for some casual games.

If you think you can attend, please send me a message through the Contact page for directions. Would love to meet more of the players face to face. Sorry for the short notice, I just decided to try this a day or two ago.

Sounds like fun.  I can't go as I'm adopting two cats this weekend.  Black ones.  I need them to replace cats I lost in a recent game.  I need to teach them how to move, how to get along with the bigger animals, and not to chase the rabbits.

What about subs2000, Sana, and Amina?  I think IdahoEv holds the record for largest live Arimaa event ever organized, with four boards played at the Gateway convention, so if we are going to top that with five boards we need everyone in attendance...

This will be funny! :)

But why announce it in the off-topic section?

Frenchies, how about a party in Chessandgo's southern town when springtime gets a bit warmer?

The Arimaa party turned out to be a real blast. We had a great time playing a simul against Karl. Even though he won all 6 games we had a great time discussing our horrible positions :-). Afterwards we had pizza, punch and lots of Arimaa discussions. Here are some photos from the event.

Awesome party ! I love the photos :)

How about the shirt ? I didn't know you made some, will you put more for sale ?

Leo and others, if you happen to come to Montpellier, I'd be delighted to have an arimaa party ! Well, maybe we might have more chance to meet in Paris, who knows ?
