Ehh, I really don't want to fly down to London to play Video games.

Just my two cents.

I was kinda think it'd be something cool to do on the Sunday, as look at the write-ups for the last two meats all people did on the Sunday was just sloth out.

Thats because you're all hung over.

Anyway. Not sure whether I want to drag two fake guitars and a PS2 all the way down from Derby. Especially since we can do better than video games if we tried.

Yeah, probably. It was a bad idea, I don't know why you suggested it.

I am coming by the way. I can't remember if I said I was or not in the earlier pages, although I've read through it all.
I don't want to miss out D:

I agree.. everytime we've ever planned to do something on a sunday it goes to hell cause everyone is way too hungover / tired to do anything... so far the plans have failed on sunday the past two meets. I dont think its a terrible idea, i DO think that people shouldnt go all out.

In other words bring your ps2/whatever if it isnt a big ordeal.. likely it might get used once on sunday and then not at all on other days when we are all going to be out and about.

Oh and kirk i'm going to be locking this topic whenever i get close to making a new one on general forum. It's still awhile away. I see myself doing it in june. By then the pages where i discuss where im at will be long burried unless one of you bitches is a snitch :)

Since people from outer seas interested in the meet might need to prepare themselves WAY in avance to get there (plane tickets, passport, etc.), I think it might be wiser to launch the topic in May instead of June.

It's a pretty good idea, nobody will be feeling up to doing much else if it's a wild night.
Can bring the pink playstation 2 along if you want. You know, for the real men.

Luis, the general forum and this forum aren't so separated that what you say in here will be kept secret. it's really not that hard to search for it, especially when people find out that you've had one of these before. Unless you can delete it (do you have super mod powers?), General will find out about it.

True... well its not a life or death crisis if they find it. I guess my point is that i purposely will be leading the conversation and plans toward saturdays' events in that thread rather than what we do sunday, thurs, fri.. whatever... so if anything, dont be alarmed. You can just PM me if youre interested in being in the loop... we're just tossing out ideas right now in this early stage so its all fine.

Cool pink PSP.
My dick was that color for a while... I had to take anti-biotics.
"Swollen Genital" colored PHP, great idea, love to have one.
Now if only it could ooze puss, then you would have something.

That's totally fair, and only the most sleuthy will find it, and they're probably regs. I'm going to wait until the thread in general to see what more plans are before I decide. I have the money and it's perfect timing to go to either PAX or London. It's all systems go for one of them, I just have to pick and I gotta see about the events going on at each. A decision will be made then!

moving this to general forum... people need time in advance to plan ... having the thread there trumps my hesitations about general forum. and it doesnt really matter anyway...

If you were planning to stay at my flat for one or multiple days PM me. i wont be discussing that aspect in the other thred. i'll just leave this thread open anyway.. managing two threads isnt impossible

k thnx

I am toying with the idea of renting a projector and maybe spending an evening watching ng movies and playing games on a big screen ... it sounds nerdy or what not but it might be fun. Its a newgrounds meet after all..

does that sound at all entertaining to you all?

Sounds good :D
Everyone should take it in turns to pick a decent movie/game or one of their own for us all to watch/play.

Luis said - projector idea

It sounds like fun if it was organized. If not it may be a bit boring.. Could imagine it being a bit slow.

Somebody should definetly bring a console so we can play whatever at some point. There's always times when we've been sat around (like sunday for example) so it'd be cool to have a quick mess about on.

I agree. This was a thought for one of the days where its kinda slow anyway.. Sundays usually pan out to be the ones where people are still reeling.

Nothing better to cure a hangover than to drink some beer and watch some flashes.

Yeah. Its happening. I'll be dragging down a 360 with Rock Band (assuming I have the cash for it at the end of May). Hans will be bringing extra film for his video camera. If we can hook it up to the projector...

Anybody good at cooking? I was thinking it would be economical and fun to have some sort of potluck on one or more of the days... maybe someone can volunteer to cook. I can only volunteer to bartend cause ive never actually cooked anything before. I only microwave. :(
