GoPlay Survival Kit

Anyone have any ideas of what one might include in such a thing? Things you want to have in your bag as you wander from game to game.

Notebook? Pencils? Dice? Index cards? Sticky notes?

All of those are good. Some of the following are good as well!
  • Water bottle for midgame throat dryness
  • Camera
  • Bandages for your fingers when Joe cons you into trying Jungle Speed
  • An extra shirt or thin hoodie in case of climate control variations
  • Non-melting candy for edible counters
  • A solid squad of WH40K minis, terrain, rulers, ref books, and battlemat for impromptu hallway challenges
  • Lunch/snack cash
  • Laptop and/or smartphone, for summoning Ryan Macklin (he is from the Internet)
  • Your go-to pickup game book
  • Condoms

Camera for sure. I'd totally forgotten. Good call. Also...

- needle and ball-point-pen for impromptu GPNW stick-and-poke tattoos
- malaria pills
- plus-one glaive-guisarme

Does the Richard Hugo House have wifi? I couldn't find any mention of it on their website.

Sunscreen. Seriously, gaming in the park may be a nice change of pace.

They do, but I forget whether it's locked down or not.

Also, the Story Games Name Project book is always a good thing to have in your survival kit.
