[Bryce (003)]

Well, as some of my friends consider me a "Bond Fan" - not sure why, I'm in.

Keep us posted as it shapes up.

[Athena007]

Ok... so it's no longer tentative... it's official.

The where is still yet to be announced. But I will get address & directions to those who will be coming... just make sure to PM me your e-mail address.

I need to get a tally of who will be coming, so please respond in this thread. Thanks guys!

[Joyce Carrington]

And don't forget... take pictures!

Have a ball.

I wonder if we should be running a bet as to who will win.

[Problem Eliminator]

"How can I refuse such a gracious invitation?"

Count me in.

[Qwerty]

Take pictures for sure!

[Ry]

This is going to be a lot of fun. Of course count me in!

[Athena007]

Ok, location set...

Saturday May 21 @ 7:00pm

At "Casa Zenthena"

(that's zencat and Athena007's place)

[zencat]

I've changed the time from 8 to 7:00. That way we will have some time to eat, drink, and socialize before we get down to bloody Bondian battle.

You're also welcome to bring along any non-Bond guests as a cheering section.

[Joyce Carrington]

I say... zencat vs. Bryce... should be interesting.

Oh, and Athena... don't let the female Bondfans down.

[Blofeld's Cat]

Does anyone know if there are plans to release another DVD with new questions?

I would guess no myself. Are there any for the other Scene-It's?

Not sure, but there's so much Bond out there to create questions from that it would be easy to do another one. It's not necessary to redo the packaging, just release a new DVD.

[Qwerty]

Yeah, I know what you mean. Extra verions to order if you've done all the ones on the main disc.

[Athena007]

Ya, totally.

Oh, and Athena... don't let the female Bondfans down.

Oh no... I feel the pressure already...

BC: I don't know anything about another question 007 DVD being released... I'd gathers there's just going to be this one.

[Athena007]

OFFICIAL e-vites with event address and additional info have been e-mailed out just moments ago! If you did not get one... check your spam box or PM me your e-mail address.

Perhaps you have contacts that can confirm either way?

Hey hey hey, Well perhaps I do...

I'll see what I can find out.

Who's the "Host" again?

This totally stinks. I cannot attend. You know. Work.

But enjoy, all you lucky people who can attend at the beguiling Athena's request. We raise our figurative glasses and salute you. And all that crap.

"She's waiting for you!"

[Bon-san]

It's times like this I'm bummed we left Southern Cal for parts east.

Enjoy all!

[Ry]

I will be watching a Bond film every day to prep for this challenge. This should be lots of fun! Going toe to toe with Zencat and Bryce will be scary!!

[Problem Eliminator]

"Sorry darling, something's come up."


Regrettably I've had something develop in the last day that means I will be unable to attend Saturday's festivities. Nothing to worry about, but a priority nonetheless.

I trust you will have a smashing time in my stead, keeping the British end up as always.

[zencat]

Well, I'm just rolling out of bed after the first annual CBn Scene It? blood bath!

I think it's fair to say a great time was had by all. The game went until after midnight and the Bond shop talk went until 3AM. Our special guest hosts did an amazing job running the game -- revising questions that might have been too easy and then pulling out their own "special" questions for the final playoffs ("special" meaning "damn near impossible"). They also bought along some spectacular prizes and everyone went away with something 007 under their arm.

But now, the winners...

*drum roll*

First place: "Collin" -- who, as far as I know, does not post here on CBn. Nevertheless, he is the CBn Scene It champion. Hmmm... Maybe staying away from Bond forums has kept his mind clear and sharp.

Second place: "Ry" (Ryan) -- who kept rolling those "9s"

Third place: "Solex Agitator" (Matthew) -- who's knowledge of Never Say Never Again did him absolutely no good, but his come from behind play in the finals will go down in legend.


Athena took loads of pics, but she's run off to a job this morning. I'm sure she'll post them when she gets home. I haven't seen the pics yet, but something tells me we got some great shots.

A great evening of Bonding. A great game. Thanks to everyone who came. it's time to start thinking about the rematch.

You sound like Stamper in Tomorrow Never Dies, zencat!

Glad to hear that the night was a huge success, and more importantly the game itself is a success in its format.

Can't wait to see the pix.

[Ry]

What a great time. Special thanks go out to John and Athena for hosting this extremely fun event and to our special moderators. You are all the best!

[Bon-san]

Congrats to the winner! Sounds like it was a blast. Can you arrange the next one to happen around the second week in August (to coincide with my vacation to So-Cal ?

Second week in August. Sure! Why not. Just give us a date so we can clear our schedules for that day and we'll set something up. It would be great to meet you.

[Ry]

So Athena any pics from the event?

[Athena007]

Yep... sorry... been very busy. I'll try and get them up soon!
