Well it's not as if the whole place was owned by the MtG club. They just call a pub and make reservations for a few tables, depending on how many players there are in a given competition.

Funny thing... same happened over here around the time of your post.

But what's interesting, is that it kinda left like I triggered it for the whole street. I just tried to switch on my bathroom light, and there it was a short-circuit with a bam and a little flame behind the light switch and the light in the whole house was off. And so was at the neighbors (though being night time, I thought they were just sleeping). So I went to the electric panel and switched everything on. When I came back to my laptop, I noticed the wireless wasn't working. I checked the router - everything fine. And only then I realized my laptop was also not detecting anymore the wireless connections of my neighbours either (it used to always easily detect at least 4-5 of them at any given time). So wth happened: did I press a button and killed the lights & internet connections on my street??? :devious: :P

Wanna get really motivated? Deal with my customers. I'm doing THREE school plays on the same weekend. One sent me a list of measurements a couple of weeks ago. It was mostly do-able. I only had to make a dozen new "Winkie Guards" for the Wicked Witch of the West. Now they drop the bomb on me about the 8th of the month that they also need 36 "Jitter bugs" - by the 24th. Plus all the other stuff. No 1/2 days on Saturday or enjoying the spring weather for me!

*bleck* I always seem to get covered over with work when the weather is nice. By the time I dig out from under all this crap, it will be over 90 degrees out there. Damn Al Gore!
