My place Saturday. If you're up for bringing something, probably make it beer, and I'll order some pizzas. Also, if you have any games that you want to play, bring them! I don't have many (I think I have BananaGrams and Twister laying around somewhere).

I've been slowly furnishing my place; there are now 2 couches in addition to a large ottoman and an office chair. Yeah, pretty much living the life. If you absolutely insist on making sure you have your own chair, feel free to bring one, you smug bastard.

That's all I can think of right now. Yep. Let me know if you have questions.

Oh, also, you can park in the apartment parking lot. But make sure you're on one of the 2 (out of 4) parking lanes further from the apartment. As in, one of the 2 outside concentric circles. This will make sense when you get there.

Cards Against Humanity kicks the shit out of Apples to Apples. Anybody have a paper cutter?

Doug, Apples to Apples is terrible. The creativity involved is so limited. It's like if you took Balderdash, but decided that people shouldn't have any freedom. It's a commy Balderdash.

Also, if you still don't know what a concentric circle is, we'll get Melissa to go over some math with you tonight. No worries. Haha, Joanna is bringing your orange shirt. Got you covered.

Shvi, my event summary was only like 8 sentences. The 3rd one says I have BananaGrams. Come on.

Max, you can email one of us through Meetup somehow. I'm probably your best option.

What do I do when I have none of your numbers, is that an automatic deny and a "you can go to hell a.k.a. 666 Murder Street"?

Whats a 'concentric' circle, is that the same thing as a cul-de-sac ? 'Murder St' ?

11/2/14 - Fall Back to Standard Time

We only play on the weekends due to daylight hours. We are still at the Higgins Rd. entrance for now since there are more options for fields & better wind breaks.

We have recently adjusted Saturday's time to start at noon.

Current Schedule

Saturday Pickup: Noon - around 3:30 PM...ish

Sunday Pickup: Noon - around 3:30 PM...ish

About us - http://www.meetup.com/ultimatefrisbee-166/about/

Main Description

First thing, don't speed in the forest preserve. We've had a few individuals get pulled over / ticketed for going like 25 (the limit is 15).

More people show up than the number that RSVP! We usually have at least two games of 5-on-5 going, and almost, almost always have at least 7-on-7. (Winter games are the exception. We still play, but numbers are often weaker.)

We are a pick-up game. Not any sort of championship game. Don't worry about "letting your team down" or anything like that. This is a great way to get outside, get in a good amount of running, and to meet new friends. On Sundays we typically play a little more structured, but it's still the same sort of friendly atmosphere.

All ages and ability levels are welcome ~ we really mean this. Our youngest player was 10 (now 11 or 12), our oldest 69. We have a group of people that play multiple times a week in leagues, and then we have new players come who we teach to play on the field. Some of us are in really good physical shape - others get winded after a few runs up the field. It is a great time and you will fit right in!

The most important thing - this is a pickup game. Our skill levels vary quite a bit. Again, we have league/club/college players and we have completely new folks. If you want to be competitive, match up against someone else playing competitively. If you're a beginner, match up against the other beginners (And ask questions!). We enjoy learning strategy, playing a good game, and getting in a workout - but we are mainly out here to play and have fun.

We distinguish teams by "light" colors (usually white) and "dark" colors (usually everything else). Try to bring a WHITE and a dark (NOT GREY) to each game, so we can make teams even. At the very least, please don't wear grey. It's neither light nor dark and is really good at confusing people in the heat of the game.

The games basically run themselves. So when you come, just jump in. Everyone is really friendly. We were all new to the group once before.

Unsure of what to do during the "off-season?" Here are some options - http://www.meetup.com/ultimatefrisbee-166/pages/During_the_%22Off-Season%22/
