Anyone interested in trying something a bit different come Thursday night? We usually play pure poker but...well, I think we can shake things up a bit.

Anyone ever heard of Faro? If you have, I've made a rather primitive box set up. Anyone's welcome to try it, but only if you've played before

Shake things up a bit? How so?

[x_dilettante_x]

Nothing too exciting; I've had enough of that in my life.

Just something a bit different to entertain the masses with.

[dividend]

Hey, sounds good to me! I'm happy to try out whatever you've got planned.

A change of pace would be nice, I have to admit.

[x_dilettante_x]

I'm always happy for willing players! Welcome aboard mate.

I've been looking into it for a while, but couldn't really figure what else to bring up.

[dividend]

Hey, thanks! I'm looking forward to it.

Well, you can figure things out as you go, right? At least you've got a vague idea now to work with.

[x_dilettante_x]

Vague is usually all I have to work with. This is a slight bit better.

If you can think of anything else, I'll be happy to hear it!

...if only we could make a full Casino Night...

[dividend]

Couldn't we make it a full casino night? Maybe we should pull in a few favours.

[x_dilettante_x]

We could but it be a bit more planning. Maybe have to get a tinkerer or two to make up a one-armed bandit.

Have to ask Shinjiro first though.

[You have him thinking, Phoenix.]

[dividend]

I'm sure that we can find the right thing to convince him with...

[x_dilettante_x]

The boys an enigma but...I suppose we can if it's a good enough try.

[dividend]

If at first you don't succeed, try try again!

[x_dilettante_x]

[Laughing]

Oh that sounds like a good amount of effort!

[dividend]

If nothing else, it'll fill in the time!

[x_dilettante_x]

That's for certain.

I'll bother old sock head about it.

What about you, old boy? Been up to anything interesting?

[dividend]

Sock head? That's a new one!

Not a whole lot, no. Just dealing with people coming and going - same old, same old.

[x_dilettante_x]

Admit it, that thing he wears on his head looks like a turned about sock.

The more things change...wonderful limerick, if only it weren't so bloody true.
