Have you considered having smaller events throughout the year as well? I'm sure people would buy tickets or make donations to come to events similar to the Draw the Jazza stream, could do a series with various NG guests teaching different skills - drawing. voice acting, etc or doing panels / meet&greets. It would be a great way to utilize the downstairs space and bring in some revenue to keep everything running.

Forgot to tag @tomfulp! Thanks again for having this event, I got to meet and spend time with people who were previously only names on NG/twitter before this weekend, everyone was really nice and offered great advice and encouragement!

Fuck, I would love to do that.

While on the topic of other meet-up locations, why not choose Denver or the Mall of America as a change of pace?

We used to have all kinds of meetups: Montreal, Boston, nyc, London, Atlanta, Glasgow, Iceland. They are a pain to organize but nothing is stopping you from hosting one yourself.

It has to stay invite-only because it's expensive to host so many people and there is limited space and bathroom capacity. I have a feeling demand will be higher than ever if we do it next year, too.

IF we do it next year, too? I see how it is.

How about a Washington D.C. meet-up? If you're lucky the President might show up to give his seal of approval!

I doubt having a meet in what's probably the most expensive city in the country in the couple of weeks where there's stupid% markup on everything is the best of ideas, but I would absolutely try to plan one of my football trips around a Germany NG meet

I am super tired, and thought this thread said, " Best of April & Pico Day Muffins"

If I come next year, I'll bring muffins.

That's a very good point, especially the hotels are insanely more expensive during Oktoberfest, if you even manage to find a free one without booking very long in advance. While I was joking in my post, a real meet in Germany or anywhere close (Netherlands / Belgium?) to many western and central european NG users would be great.

What football trips? Which club should I watch out for, in case it became Bayern Munich's opponent next season?

It's given me such an incredible piece of mind the last two years. Even when it poured rain all of Friday, I couldn't fathom a non-Sunny Pico Day.
.....and I never will be able to.

Is that seal the same one from Club a Seal?
https://www.newgrounds.com/seals/

I know that there is a Pico Day 2015 submission that has one of the seals from Club a Seal take revenge on Tom, but I guess I forgot to fav that submission since I can't find it. I think the name of that submission was "Club a Tom".

It's a shame that we don't have more submissions inspired by Club a Seal.

Another reason to sell the office, and have the party at a convention center near the turnpike. Gotta divest while the divestin's good. It's a solid place, I'm sure if you keep it listed, maybe some online distributor (like a sawed-off Amazon) would be very interested.

Also, I wouldn't be the slightest bit perturbed at the sight of a chained-down can saying "Pico Day Donations" on it, even if all the attendees were supporters, their contributions get eaten up in hosting costs (among other things). Shame I wasn't there to force a few bucks onto your person ;)
