Newgrounds.com — Everything, By Everyone.

About 89% of NGrs don't live in london. Hell, montreal is connected to america, so we can drive there. We aren't flying all the way to london for this!

So what is what being liked feels like? ='3

I don't know, I'm a bit iffy about it all, it's no problem me getting to London, quick ride up, I just don't know if Newgrounds is ready for real life Gagsy.

Sounds pretty cool - I'll see what I'm doing. University doesn't start until September 17th, so If I'm otherwise available I'll definitely come up.

It's almost as if this meetup is intended for people in the UK.

It's up to you, but I think that's a pretty poor excuse not to go. It's just a day of tons of fun. Or a night of tons of fun, depending on how long you stay.

I know I'm a worrier, who despite what I like to think, I do want people to like me.

Heh, 'pull the other one' is such a British phrase, guv'nor. I'm sure that was intentional, though. Twill be cool to meet you Kirk, amongst the other English Newgrounders who will be attending :)

I challenge BBM to a drinking contest! (If I can make it). I may very well lose, as I'm a bit out of practice, but it's a challenge nonetheless.

You do know London is really expensive so save up some moneys. I can't go wish I could.

Swings and slides and things, I think it was there.

Eh, when I've met people from the internet, they've always been far more interesting in real life. Don't concern yourself with what people will think of you.

Ok then, 11% of newgrounds is from the UK

you start college on a Saturday?????

Well I just checked my University's website and the first day seems to be on September 29th, so lucky me then. Unless something else comes up, which is unlikely with my empty schedule, then I'll be there.

You poor people have to deal with me, I'll only know BBM, and Burnzoid if he comes.

Oh man, we're so going to this.

What uni are you going to? I start on the 17th I believe.

It's all good fun. I've never met any Newgrounders IRL, so I won't technically know anyone.

So wait...can I come or what?

if you can show up at the london eye on august 30th at about 1pm (i think thats what i said) then you obviously can come... you'll see a mass gathering of nerds and that'll probably be us. Or it might be the people from the ebaums meet.

But that's impossiblet, why else do I hide behind this mask that is the internet so often?

I agree, the basic gameplan based on past times is this... meet at the london eye at about 1pm... when we have a big enough group we goto the arcade for awhile (i think this year people wanted to play football?) ... eventually we get a few more people to show up.. then we find something else to do.. generally the older folks stick around later in the evening to go on a pub crawl or something 18+... but anyones welcome to leave or show up whenever... obviously it becomes more challenging to track us down later in the day when we are no longer in that general waterloo area...

anyone can show up... you can be a die hard forum goer... an award winning animator... god of actionscripting.. moderator.. new user.. whatever.. people who know alot about the site tend to have a better time tho... youll find more things in common with others duh.

Regarding the TYPES of people.... well most people that DO show up are in their late teens - mid twenties... it doesnt mean you arent welcome if you dont fit into those categories but just know that you'll be around people not within your age range and if late in the day everyone wants to goto something 18+ like a pub, well then your shit out of luck if you dont fill the req....

The way i see it.. the worst case scenario. Youll find the whole thing boring in the first hour and you can go home or disappear into the distance.

the end, youll atleast be out of the curiousity.

That's pretty much my philosophy on it - it's not a long or expensive trip for me to come over there. I respect the hell out of those going, and of those I didn't know much of before looking them up, I can honestly say there is nobody I'm thinking "Oh god, anyone but you..." about :)
Pweeese work, give me the day/weekend off.... pweeese?

Could we take a poll on that? I'd rather not come to london to hoof a ball around in the August heat when we could be getting down to the important things - talking about video games and stuff.
