Posted February 5, 2008 Eeek, I have no idea how to get to those places jayseven. There's no way in hell, I'm getting a tube on my own either. So I may pass this one 0.o There's no way you're missing out on this, I'm afraid. London can seem overwhelming to begin with, but trust me it's not too bad. I nearly always get on the wrong tube, but there's maps on the trains and stuff. It's still months away, if you are freaking out I can use my mad organisational skillz to give you a step-by-step list of how to get from where you are to where you need to get to. Hey I'm not deliberately trying to be a kill-joy I'm just going by the existing evidence of how last years meet up turned out... No worries dude :P Just a shame to see the pessimism. People complain that there's no meet up, then they complain when there is one. Quit doubting. It is happening. I for one am very much looking forward to sitting around with a bunch of weirdos not saying anything and feeling generally awkward. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted February 5, 2008 Not a feeling like it. Who knows what to say or what to do. Part of the fun is sitting there and finding out. Epic games better be played! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I for one am very much looking forward to sitting around with a bunch of weirdos not saying anything and feeling generally awkward. Hahaha. You said it much better than I would have. It's the main reason I've decided against going to this - and actually any social gathering where the amount of people I don't know who I have to hang out with out-numbers the people I know and feel secure around.

Posted February 5, 2008 Dude, I'm much the same. But ultimately, what's the worst that can happen? I'm just going to get pissed, smoke some fags, try to teach some people some card games, bump into things, say stupid rubbish, call everyone by their forum names and eat chips n' dips. If you fancy bringing a safety buddy type mate thing then do. The park's big enough for all of us Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted February 5, 2008 Eeek, I have no idea how to get to those places jayseven. There's no way in hell, I'm getting a tube on my own either. So I may pass this one 0.o If you get a train to Euston station you just get on the Underground there, pick up a map before getting on and just get on a train in the direction of the park. It's so simple. What would be the thing to do when everyone's there though? Unless everyone brings DSs and mario kart it could get boring quick. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted February 5, 2008 ROUNDERS! It could be fun... Maybe if there's other staffers going we can have staff and vets vs forumers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted February 5, 2008 It's not that I'm just not using the tube on my own to meet people I've never met before, I'll meet at train stations because they are all the same, but I've never used an underground system *cries in blind panic* I could magically appear if it means kicking shadow's ass, it'd mean I'd beat a scot xD Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted February 5, 2008 London ay? That would take a bit of parental negotiation but i think i could possibly do it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted February 5, 2008 Or, we could gather all the mods and admins, before lighting them on fire and whacking them with sticks. Fun for all. Seriously though, DS' might be a good idea, not only for the trip there, but for later too. Cmon, it'll be fun, just toss a bunch of strangers, who've known each other for years in a park with beer. It'll be epic. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted February 5, 2008 Well that's not the primary intention of the meet-up. Personally my main goal is to find a couple of good souls willing to drink excessively in public. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
