Adventure Gamers' forum members get-together in Amsterdam! - Page 7

Luna Sevithiainen · 02-21-2010, 01:40 PM

At least there will be a puzzle that is about finding and recognizing everyone

Hammerite · 02-21-2010, 01:59 PM

Well, if you have difficulty, always remember: Use Everything on Everything Else!

tsa · 02-21-2010, 09:35 PM

Yes, and take everything that isn't nailed down!

Where does that phrase come from anyway? I first saw it in the manual of The Pawn (1986 or so). But maybe some old geezer here can tell me if it is older than that?

Also, I'd love to see video of all of you going around the town, talking to everyone about trivial things, selling these fine leather jackets, taking every item you can find...

Of course most importantly, using the items and saying "that doesn't work".

*stepurhan* · 02-22-2010, 05:42 AM

Newsflash!!!!

Adventure Gamers arrested in Amsterdam.

"They were taking everything they could lay their hands on and then poking people with them" said horrified witnesses."They kept muttering about how `That doesn't work"'

The group were apprehended trying to push a copy of Die Telegraaf under the door of Fortis Bank while wielding a variety of thin pointy sticks.

Slightly earlier, a group of construction workers had called the police after the same group had interrupted them in the middle of lifting a crate by removing the pulley they were using and stuffing it in in a rubber chicken.

Jelena · 02-26-2010, 09:44 AM

The construction workers were also upset by the fact that the strange group of people were climbing the scaffolding they just had assembled. They also reported the men and women referred to themselves as Nico and George. Perhaps that could be a lead for the police to find the right asylum to bring these weirdos back to.

Stop it you three, I can't handle it anymore! My stomach hurts from laughing!

Hammerite · 02-26-2010, 01:08 PM

His stomach hurts?
If we USE this toucan on this frayed curtain, we can make the signed photograph of Chris Rea fall from the curtain rail above!
Then we can GIVE the photograph to the strange bearded man pissing up the building, in exchange for his prescription medicine.
Great work!
Now, all we need to do now is USE the prescription medicine on tsa and...
...
...
... oh, no.

Spoiler:
The lid is too tight, and we'll need to find some means of opening this mother!

*stepurhan* · 02-28-2010, 03:43 AM

Sorry, what was that tsa?

I can guarantee there will be puzzles at the event by the way.

If you want to replicate the above try here.

Jelena · 02-28-2010, 04:08 AM

Those poor Dutch people won't know what hit them.

tsa · 02-28-2010, 12:09 PM

Oh come on. We've seen better stuff. Besides, the date was wrong. There is no Saturday, April 9, 2010

.

Jelena · 02-28-2010, 12:15 PM

We're obsessed with the Dutch. We even have a dog by the breed: Nova Scotia Dutch Tolling Retriever

Sorry. My kids calls it teacher's sense of humour.

Jazhara7 · 03-05-2010, 01:20 PM

I just booked my ticket and hotel - Jelena will already know it's the same as they and Stepurhan have booked. I'm looking forward to meeting all of you - I'll be arriving on Friday. I will most likely be the Goth Girl sitting in the lobby drawing or reading. ^^

I mailed the restaurant we chose to ask if they serve salt-poor food, because of my new diet. They didn't answer. I will call them later this week, but if they don't do salt-poor or salt-free then I have to choose another Indonesian restaurant that does. I hope you guys don't mind.

Of course not!

UPtimist · 03-06-2010, 02:47 AM

I am appalled. I'm not even coming there but I am absolutely appalled. How dare you change the restaurant, due to mere health reasons?

tsa · 03-06-2010, 11:11 AM

I just wanted to annoy you

RLacey · 03-06-2010, 11:28 AM

Whereas I'm just appalled in general!

Hammerite · 03-06-2010, 11:29 AM

I vomited out of pure disgust.
