Yes.
Rocky: you do know what an A-bomb is, right?
Bullwinkle: A-bomb is what some people call our show!
Rocky: I don't think that's very funny...
Bullwinkle: Neither do they, apparently!

Told you in PM, but might as well say it here...

Yeah, I'm coming.  Again, I live so close it'd be kind of insulting NOT to come <_<

Confirming for sure. Tentative plan: I'm driving up to Milford on the 13th, crash at Shale's place for a few hours to sleep, then leave early on the 14th. Car/gas money is secured, so yeah. Does anyone have AtA?

E: Shale, Miki, Sopko, Strago, Fnorder, Meeple, Super. Am I missing anyone?

Unconfirming for sure.  The weekend was just nuked for me.

Sorry ;_;

But hey, if anyone wants to come to Pittsburgh for a Christmas party or something...

(Also, need to speak to you when I get home tonight, Super - around 2200)

Good, so do I. I need those saga status notes among other things.  I'll be home from school by then.

I might not be mentally stable or very awake, but I should be home by then. 

So, date is on.  Olive Garden?  I'll wear the dress.

"Saga status notes" are codeword for 'rough sex in Super's car in the parking lot by Olive Garden'.
Don't think of it as a novel. Think of it as a chance to retroactively win every argument you have ever walked away from.

I believe Dave took that from him long, long ago, that fateful Freshman year.

Jesus Christ, I just realized the implications of that.  How has this group not just said "Screw you guys, I'm going over there" by this point?

Strago is still a maybe. Haven't heard from Fnorder. You'll need to get in contact with me on whether or not you're coming.

I don't get off until late on Fridays, so I will probably hop the train over Saturday morning, if no one objects. I humbly request 1) to be told what NJ transit train to take and 2) that no overplaying of fighting games occur before my arrival.

I'll get you that ASAP, Fnorder.

Heard from Snowfire, so that would be 8 if Strago also is able to make it.

I have Meeple and Jim's numbers, but no one else's. If you're coming, please either PM it to me or tell me in IRC.

May have said this before, but might as well say it again...

Soppy, if you need help with any of the bussing people from one spot to another (so long as its not Friday morning), feel free to ask.

Edit: Naturally, I assume I'll be one of the main carpoolers AT the Minimeet itself so <_<;

I think thats a net loss for Fnorder

And yeah, Meeple. It should be fine. It'll just be some runs to the bus stop for the NYCers, and the train station for Fnorder. Between you, me and Shale we'll have more than enough cars. Miniature American flags for the rest of them!

Come on, I survived the trip. Mostly.

Minimeet is 9 days or so away. Just updating.

For people coming in from NYC, the best way to get to my town is by bus leaving from the Port Authority.

Friday between 3-7: Take the 196 Express. The first stop is my town, takes about 45 minutes, leaves every 20 minutes or so.

Other times: Take Route 197. MAKE SURE you check the schedule and make sure it goes to the Ringwood Park & Ride. Usually leaves every hour.

Still looking on that train thing. I'm pretty sure the closest stop is in Wayne, but I don't know what stops there.


Other stuff:
Food! What do people want? I'll be picking up breakfast stuff for Shale-fast, as well as drinks and snacks. Still need an idea for dinner since the grill may or may not be a viable option.

In other news, my Dad, in a surprising twist, will be home for the weekend. Who'da thunk it? Doesn't change anything, just letting people know.

Meeple says that his house is availible to hang out in, so we'll be spending some time there too.

Gaming: Well, I have a PS2 and a PS3. Meeple said he'd provide a Gamecube. There's my TV upstairs and the TV in the living room that we can use.

As for other gaming, people can bring their Magic decks. If no one has Apples to Apples, speak now. I'll pick up a copy on Sunday if not. Betrayal at the House on the Hill, Dreamblade, Crack the Case and Chess are also possessed. If anyone plans on bringing anything else, let everyone know.

There will be bowling. Probably on Saturday.

Give me a final itinerary on when people are coming and going and how. People are free to stay into Monday. We may possibly take a day trip into NYC on Sunday, since there are a bunch of people going back there anyway. Depends on your reactions to the idea.

No one has apples to apples as far as I know. Has Strago been a non lamer and confirmed he's coming? Food... I don't know, chicken of some type? I'm not really picky.

Shale, can your modded PS2 play Japanese PSX games? I'll brig Brig:GE on the off chance anyone wants to see the Snake of Chaos fight.
