XP: Euchre Night, part deaux

Moesten · April 2011

Alright ladies, so I have a list of 26 women interested in euchre night. Wowza! The way I worked it last time was that I chose a date that worked for me and then emailed women an invite in order that they responded to the initial interest thread. As people declined I moved to the next name on the list. So now I am trying to figure out the fairest method of doing it this time. So I am thinking we'll do it just like a sports draft does.

For those of you who don't watch sports, that means that we'll go in reverse order on the list this time. So the first name on the list last time (Mrs.Moher) will be in last position this time and the person on the lowest position (Riabiron) will be first.

We had 3 full tables (12 people) last time and I am thinking I could fit one more reasonably well. For those who came last time, do you think I could fit another table or is 16 people too unwieldy?

I am going to take a look at my calendar and choose a date in the next day or two. I am hoping for mid to late May.

Is there anyone who wants to be added to the interest list?

OH, and several people contacted me about couples euchre nights so I have an interest list of that floating around too. Anyone want their name added to that one?

I definitely think 16 would be doable. And would love to be added to the couples list too

I checked and I do have a small card table if you need me to bring it. That is, if I make the draft.

As for the couples, could I bring my hetero-life partner?

As long as it can play euchre, you can bring it. The Moesten household is an equal-opportunity, live and let live household.

That sounds fair. I also wanted to add that it might be best to limit the "newbies" to one per table, as you did last time. There prob aren't as many now that 3 of them have already learned the last time.

16 would probably be ok, I also have a card table and chairs I could bring if needed.

I think you know I'm also interested in the couples euchre.

My hubby and I would be interested in the couples euchre. We met at a gathering of young adults from our church and played together quite a bit in the "getting to know you phase" before dating

I think I wrote my name down about 3 times on your list. : )

I like the draft concept. It speaks to my competative nature. And as long as I don't have to play with MrsGeorge, I'm good to go. Haha, only joking Stick out tongue

We'd also be interested in couples euchre, as long as we can find a sitter!

KittahMama · April 2011

So I would be interested- I love card games, but I don't know how to play Euchre

Uhm... maybe I should learn first, huh?

Ditto and Ditto.

I have a card table and chairs as well to share! I am also willing to make food or donate cash to the cause as well as bring wine for everyone (except tiffy!) LOL

Wow, you are already scared of my mad Euchre skills? I would love to be on the list, and yes, another table would have worked.

I would love to join but it would all depend on what night. I am assuming no kids. I do not have a night time sitter and my DH works a lot of nights. We would also be interested in a couples night but again it would depend on the night

Our schedules suck!
