We would like to invite the IF world to show up and hang out at WordPlay in Toronto on November 8th. (Free admission.) That whole weekend, really -- we'll have some kind of dinner and stuff.
For the past few years, the Boston IF gang has hosted community get-togethers in association with various local game-related shindigs. (First PAX East, then NoShowConf.)
What with one thing and another, that's not happening in Boston this summer. (Although we will be in attendance at BostonFIG in September.)
However! Jim Munroe is running his second annual WordPlay festival in Toronto on November 8th. This seems like an excellent opportunity to declare a get-together. So let's do that.

A word from the wise: do not expect to drive around Toronto and still maintain your sanity. It's a crapshoot, but when it's really bad in the downtown core, it can be over twice as fast to walk distances less than, say, a mile.
