Folks,

Yes, I realise the significance of the date - but this is no joke (despite 
being sorely tempted to announce the event as the first London Assembly 
Dojo)... 

Sign-up here: http://ldnpydojo.eventwax.com/8th-london-python-code-dojo

Last time we added game state and in-game objects to our continuing project of 
creating an old-skool style text adventure game. Several "teams" added extra 
“features” such as a chat bot and “monsters” (!?). The code can be found 
here:http://github.com/ntoll/code-dojo/tree/master/adventure/week3/.

At the end of the last dojo the group decided to “bless” only one of the 
solutions so we avoid another tedious “refactoring” dojo. I’ll also attempt to 
use Holger’s branch to merge in “monsters” and prepare a ready-to-go area in 
the repos for our next task…

Everyone seemed to like the small group / show-and-tell style so we’ll do the 
same thing again. Problems we might want to tackle include: a command parser 
that doesn’t suck (bye-bye CMD), NPCs/AI (monsters), authoring tools (Hello 
Bruce and John), turning it into a MUD (and so the list goes on…)

Photos from all the dojos so far can be found here:

Free pizza and beer will be provided. (Thanks Fry-IT)

Participants get the chance to win a cool book (thanks O’Reilly – poor old 
Josette was ill – hence the silence about the last dojo).

It'll take place at the usual time in the usual place. Remember to bring a 
laptop with Python and GIT installed (actually, shouldn't we be using 
Mercurial..?)

Looking forward to it,

Nicholas.
