Newgrounds.com — Everything, By Everyone.

I've decided to come down on Friday, spend Friday and Saturday morning on my own, meetup on Saturday and recover and some more alone time on Sunday before returning home either Sunday or Monday. No offense to any of you, I just generally prefer my own company.

Friday through Sunday, I'm looking at booking into a nearby hotel and sleeping there at least on Friday and possibly Saturday and Sunday. Meaning I'll come pubbing after the general meetup, then head to the flat (if I remember where it is) in the early hours of Sunday morning.

All of this is just "spare of the moment" stuff, but is my current plan :)

I has like 2 miles to walk from where the coach stops so ill get there super early, have you got the times?

Okay so we have a huge waitlist on people trying to stay at the flat. This meet is turned into a gigantic uncontrollable monster and i need to start getting control of the situation.

So in an attempt to filter out the amount of people staying with me, im putting a 20quid a night fare. and 10q if you are not picky about sleeping on a bed. i figure i can house 8 people comfortably.

So yeah i thought id mention this with time in advance. Drop me a PM if you are staying with me and what days your staying ... as much as i want to let everyone stay for free again, i think this is the most fair way to do it. I dont want a situation where i've promised so many people they can stay and then have like 20 people angry.

Thoughts/concerns let me know..

Like I suggested, going to see Spamalot on Monday (tickets are cheaper) would be really cool!
Besides that, any museum or things like that would also be cool :)

That would be brilliant, does it have the real actors from the film? Because some of them are hot ;)

Also, is there any solid plans for what's going on certain days?

I don't think so, but it's got Letitia Dean in it though, and she's a MILF.

luis, £10 a night sounds like a fair price to share breathing space with you

Camden would be fun. Not been there in years.

Anyway, yeah, put me down for £20 worth of bed.

Spooning is included in the price? Excellent!

Not sure when I'll be coming down, but if you can reserve me a tenner's worth of carpet I'll be reet.

I'd go for a bed, but those'll probably be filling up pretty quickly.

well now that suits me just fine

Hello everyone. I am just booking my coach ticket now so I should definetly be there. See you all in London, i'll be 19 by then too.

See ya all there :)

If any of you are travelling from within England and are strapped for cash, checkout the National Express funFare service!

put me down for 0, i'm most likely not going to be coming again this time round, certainly next year once i'm actually 18 and don't have so much other stuff going on.

Boo

Hey, we should have two football strips if we are to be having a football match. Black Newgrounds shirts with white shorts versus Red Newgrounds shirt with blue shorts.

That's a good idea (apart from the shorts!), but it means I'm gonna have to buy a new NG shirt. ;)

Also, with the meet little over a month away I'm now officially super excited! Hopefully next week when everyone's back from ComicCon we can get some concrete times and places sorted.

Boom! I'm back... Don't know when I last came to the NG forums but oh well... Anyone remember me. By the way if you happen to get a chance to see "The Woman in Black" do it. It's the best performance I have seen in my life. I would come and help the Americans get lost (I'm not too good with directions) but I've kind of abandoned Newgrounds :( Meh if something interesting enough comes up then I may get back into flash and Newgrounds in general but until then I'll see ya when I see ya. (Xenon I recognise your name...)

as long as it doesnt become a shirts vs skins thing... nothin worse than having my world class bolivian beer belly running around in public shirtless. Save that shit for when im drunk or something.

Anyway, i'd like to not further bump this thread any more... as hard as it may seem, go post on the general forum version. They arent that unfriendly over there and it makes it less confusing at this point.

For anyone that cares, i now have the exact address of the flat we're setting up base camp at.

If you happen to be one of the people staying with me and need/want to know the address then you can drop me a PM. I should have my UK cell phone on August 22nd.

I need to get a placeholder page going with the countdown thing. That always makes it feel 'legit'

Chances are most people will have the black shirt, like I. But football is definitly a good idea.

Saaaaaweeet. BTW, you has my number still, yes?

Also, is there a need you feel to update the list of those staying at the flat ATM and where we need to be and when for those that are staying?

hey guys i might be going to the london meet but i think we should make our own ng uk tshirts on cafepress.com heres a design i did like mogley's sig

kind of .....

hmmmm the picture came out abit wierd but i guess you get the jist of it

right?

anyways i think i am goin to ng london with fellow ngers Diamond Armada and spamup99

just 2 points worry us tho

1.we will have to get a coach at 6.30 in the morning to get to london by 1pm

2.were are we goin to sleep ?

Ok so august is upon us. Time to start diving into the finer points of this thing.

I currently have these people as ones staying with me, looks like itll be a full house on all days, with an even fuller house on fri and saturday. wasnt exactly what i intended but ill just live with it if thats the case.

If people dont need to stay on thursday then dont, people will be coming in via busing/train/air/boat(?) etc and it will pretty much be a hectic day. I'd like to account for as few people as possible. I know last year there was like people who got stuck waiting at the flat while we were out to dinner because they ran late or their flight got delayed or whatever.. those things do happen and i understand that but if you are someone who doesnt really need to come in on thursday or youre not really coming from far away then id prefer it if you didnt stay at the flat on thurs. (of course you can come out and hang out on thursday) until we are settled in and i account for those that ARE coming in from far away.

what exactly is far? well I've been thinking of having a food chain of sorts as to the level of preference. So priority goes as follows:

1- You are coming from outside of europe
2- You are coming from outside england
3- You are flying in
4- You are on the outskirts of england and are on a long bus/train ride
5- Locals to the area

===========================

Go ahead and let me know what day you are coming in via PM, i know ive asked for that before but this time im actually going to punch it into my roster. If you have your actual itinerary that also might be worth mentioning.. although its optional.

I have these people below as ones definately coming in on thursday with what number they correspond to on priority. I also dont expect the flat to be available until after 5pm on thursday, so if you have a rediculously early arrival to london then youll have to find something to do for a few hours :)
Travel light.
