<p>I sampled the local beverages and other offerings, but waved off from engaging with our target.  I figures Beeper Bob would rather play up his fame with the ladies by himself.  What a player. </p>

<p>I slam my whiskey, turn to the door, and its dark.  I feel my feet shuffling towards the door, so I know its not the coke or at least I think its not.</p>

<p>Call in a favor from my pal, Jeffery Downten, at Night City HQ that fucker owes me for covering for him on his gambling debts, now its his turn to pay up.</p>



<p>This is bad and I mean really, really bad.  There is no way, they&#8217;ve uncovered dirt on me.  I relay the news and suggest we follow Jeff&#8217;s suggestion to lay low and come up with a plan.  Ok, I&#8217;ve got an idea.</p>

<p>After the closure of our Starfinder adventure it was time for a change with our gaming table.  Too long had Zach been shafted with the shit seats, and the prospect of going back to minimal legroom was too much to bear.</p>



<p>I know we discussed the getting an <a href="https://ultimategametable.com/">official gaming table</a> to store all of our equipment, but it eats into our mutual beer money.  We did discuss the option of crafting this equipment from the finest materials, but there too we had challenges to great to overcome.</p>



<div class="wp-block-image"><figure class="aligncenter"><img width="800" height="700" src="https://www.deathbadgers.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/quality-builds.jpg" alt="This heinous mess of a home reminds me of our first gaming table attempt" class="wp-image-48" srcset="https://www.deathbadgers.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/quality-builds.jpg 800w, https://www.deathbadgers.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/quality-builds-300x263.jpg 300w, https://www.deathbadgers.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/quality-builds-768x672.jpg 768w" sizes="(max-width: 709px) 85vw, (max-width: 909px) 67vw, (max-width: 984px) 61vw, (max-width: 1362px) 45vw, 600px" /><figcaption>A close approximate to our original custom built GM screen</figcaption></figure></div>



<p>With the tools of the trade in hand, I quickly grabbed a dry erase pen and scribbled away on a drawing surface.  I presented my well documented plan to others and expounded and great length about how this would work.  At that point in time everyone else had just stood up and started moving tables.</p>



<div class="wp-block-image"><figure class="aligncenter"><img width="800" height="532" src="https://www.deathbadgers.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/bridge-fail-e1567267921563.jpg" alt="Just like these bridges that don't quite line up, neither did our gaming tables" class="wp-image-51"/><figcaption>Half way through the evening</figcaption></figure></div>



<p>How long does it take to get six gamers to agree on the position of four tables, a mangled dry erase board &#8220;screen&#8221;, and a single projector?  About three hours with 75% of the original screws and only one wasted trip to Menards.</p>



<p>After much re-arrangement of the tables, I believe we&#8217;ve come to a beneficial solution for all.  Zach, future gamers will appreciate your determination to make our gaming area better.</p>
