Does Scotland really counts as "Outside of England" in this situation? :P
Guess it should be named "Outside of the UK" instead...

Yes, technically I'm classed as a 4 on that list (closer to a 5 since London really isn't THAT far from Derby, especially since I can now drive there). But I'm also bringing Castle Crashers and Rawk Bahnd.
Booked that week off now. Will book train tickets as well
Mexican sounds good.

I'll be a (4), but I won't know if I've got any last minute Uni stuff to sort out untill after results day (mid-August I think), so I've not got an exact time or day.

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
i would be a 4 and soo is diamond armada and spamup99

18- You're not going. ;-p
Seriously though, if you're within a few hours of the place, you may be able to come for Saturday afternoon, leaving after dinner.
Or there's always the future. Seems to be becoming a tradition. :-D

In addition to what Bezman said, most people are actually going for just the meet (Aug. 30th @ 1pm) and then heading out/back home after that... thats obviously impossible for those flying in from other parts of the world, and thus planning accomidation is necessary.
Also I'm purposely only mentioning accomidations on this thread and not on the general forum. Dont send them over here, I'm already beyond capacity and have been there for quite some time now :P

I had to google it up to see what it was, but damn, it looks hilarious :D
I'm in (as long as we do it with beer, and not shooters of hard liquor)

That looks like a hoot!
I'm heading down for a wedding on the 16th and could scout it out.

Let's be honest here, Luis.
After a couple of drinks, you'll probably chug anything we put in front of you...
Anything.

Less than a month away now. It seemed proper to get the countdown started and to plug this shit.
If you need your name added/removed PM me... obviously the countdown is different for people coming in prior to the actual meetup day. This page is mostly for the general forum folks.

My Black logo shirt arrived this morning so my kit is sorted! It came with this snazzy postcard too.
Also massive YES to the tequila bar.

Okay guys. For those who are staying for the multiple day fiasco, I need someone who's got an XBox360 to lend a hand.
While I'm still bringing my XBox with Rock Band and (we can all hope) Castle Crashers, I'm a bit short equipment wise. Specifically, if someone can provide two spare controllers (for four player CC) and an extra Guitar Hero / Rock Band guitar, we'll have a full complement of geeky gaming controllers for hot steamy four player action.

I could bring my two controllers (one wireless and one that is not)
