I was the guy in the public enemy t-shirt, by the way.

I had such a great time!! I met tons of you people, and all of you were really nice. I desperately tried to remember names, but in doing so can't remember certain peoples' screen names.

Regardless, it was so much fun! Gagsy and Cally were both brilliant, I <3 you two.

All the admin are really great guys who were pretty relaxed. It was good to chat with other Americans for a bit and share impressions of London and the UK. Joe and I sat with Bob, Mike and Tim while people were bowling and playing in the Bumper Cars I think.

I did eventually get into a bumper car... despite my hesitation... it was peer pressure from Mike and Coop83 (I think... if you're reading this tell me if I'm right or wrong, I was never formally introduced to you even though I talked to you often :P ) Joe is much to big for those tiny cars and kept destroying his knees on the steering wheel. It was brutal! Tom was being targeted by everyone, poor guy lol.

Yeah, anyway, had a fantastic time! Thank you all for making it so much fun!

Cool, I'm waiting for Luis and Bezzman to put up some mugshot pics so I can get a good likeness of everybody.
Wonchop had goggles, Almighty hans had a cigarette and The swain was really, really tall.
It might take a while, anybody else want to lend a voice?

You guys should come to New Zealand around April for the Armageddon.

It's a big fair with lots of famous people like anime voice actors and movie stars. Like this year they're gonna have the voice of Chris Sabat. (The voice of Vegeta and Piccolo).

Anyway Tom could go and advertise NG and have a little booth where he could have an Xbox there for people to play castle crashers or Alien Hominid. He could even go on stage like all the other celebs do and talk about the site, his games and then be asked questions by his fans.

This is the site here. http://www.pulpexpo.com/

What a fucking amazing meet, I kinda wish I wasn't such a light-weight so I didn't make such a dick of myself. All of you guys are really great people, and we really enjoyed taking to you all. However, the biggest surprise for me was Bob. I mean, what a fucking legend, you could not meet a nicer bloke.

Obviously the hobo is a big talking point, but a few moments before that, as we (Poozy, actually) tried to move the sign to take a picture, a security guard stopped Poozy from doing that, so Poozy sized up to him and, honestly, I've never seen someone jump as far back as that security guard did.

My personal favourite bit from the hobo was when he dropped his can of beer and someone said "He dropped hit loot". Which was way better than my shit joke of "Beer Loss: Minus 10HP"

Anyway, thanks for a great time, guys, I hope to see all of you again soon.

Things I will apologise for:

1) Gushing over Tom like a faggot. Sorry Tom.
2) Telling Rob to fuck off. Sorry Rob.

People who still owe me a pint:

Tom
Tim

I was lucky I didn't take you up on that drink. I had just enough time to go a piss before my train arrived.

Very very very awesome meet-up! I was expecting to have a good time, I sure was, but I was not expecting to have this much fun!

Also, best dancer on NG is obviously Bezman who's late Saturday night asking to get my mugshot, then after a while of photing saying (AS IF THIS IS A VERY NORMAL THING TO DO): "Thank you Andersson, can I take photos of your arse now?"

Of course I had to say yes. ^^

Yes sure was. Now when you've got a craving for visiting different countries maybe you can order the others to plan some other meet-up not so far from now. ;-)

Gagsy - love you, you're just as awesome in person.

You're all amazing.

Yesterday was so awesome, everyone was real friendly and the NG staff are just the swellest guys ever. Me and Sam managed to get back to my place, but we had to stop several times for Sam to throw up his McDonalds chicken McNuggets, maybe getting them from a dodgy late night place at 3am wasn't the best idea.

There's so much more that I could write up about that day, it was hella fun and I got to meet so many amazing people, but I'll keep it short for now.

We can't make it to the Sports Cafe today, too tired and too worn out, so goodbye to all the Americans and everyone I didn't get to talk to yesterday, enjoy the game and it was great to meet you all DAWGS.

Everyone gazed at their shoes and only communicated thru notes written on Post-Its.

After the Namco Station, we went to the Walkabout bar and got booze and foods. Then we needlessly travelled to another farout pub where there was brief karaoke, a cat, and magically appearing pizza.

Surprisingly not, at least not from what I could tell. Everyone seemed to mingle with everyone else. I thinking certain people have have flocked together simply because they were more comfortable, but over the course of the night I talked to so many people! Both those whose names I recognized and some who were fairly new to the site but wanted to come to the meet-up anyway. It was great.

It was great. Dangen, where did you go btw? You seemed to have went missing after Namco. The day/night was great though. I'm a little coughed out from the bitter London air, but it was all worth it.

Met some truly awesome people, and if anyone wants they can read up about it in my blog. Cause I'm going to go and relax now, so I'm not too tired for work early tomorrow morning.

Online persona's versus offline persona's was so interesting to see btw. Some people (NO NAMES) who do act like assholes or badasses online were totally not like that in real life. Can't we all just by who we are guys? Online and off? :*]

me: No, it's old.
