Minimeet '09, eastern seaboard area.
« on: September 05, 2009, 03:28:55 PM »
Posting this to get an idea of interest. We've had one the last few years, another would be cool.

Timeframe: Mid December. Location and the rest is still up in the air, but I'm up for suggestions but would prefer it to be closer than NY if possible. Any ideas? Who's interested?

EDIT: 18th of December to the 20th of December. Maybe coming in on the 17th (Thursday night) as well.

Yes

1. Super
2. Pyro
3. Shale
4. Meeple
5. OK
6. Xer
7. CT

I'm up for it.  I'm coming back from Las Vegas around December 12, so any time after that works.  I'd love to go wherever...I'd offer my place, though it might not fit, depending on the number of people (and is a bit further than people probably want to go....Virginia would be the best, I think?)

Count me in, as usual.

I'd offer to hold it, but I'm pretty sure at least some people want to avoid NJ, so...

Well if it's eastern seaboard, then it's not out of the question. I'll see when classes end in December, though people probably don't want to hold it too close to Christmas.

I highly doubt I'll be able to go, as I'll be in Florida then, but we'll see where it is and how it's going down before I fully count myself out.

Options for hosting:

A: Pyro. We know he can swing a minimeet, he's a good host and if OK was coming, carpooling with potential people (Cid/Xer, at worst just picking up Cid's stuff he needs to return) could work. Bit far for Meeple/OK to come though.
B: Meeple. Can host and has space, but I'd hate to put his parents out like that twice in a year and it is a long way. Plus I may choke his brother out ECW style if I hear him say the word 'trainwreck' again.
C: Cid. Almost certainly out/has other things on his plate right now.
D: Shale.  Also centrally located, but the apartment is a bit small for this and Milford sucks.  Edit: I could talk Dekar into coming to this minimeet if we hosted it here though!

18th of december to the 20th is the time I was thinking? School's out for everybody in that case.

I might actually come if that's the time period.  My family's meeting in Ottawa for Christmas, and for Visa reasons I may be unable to leave the US at that time, but I could come to the minimeet, and afterwards grab a hotel just south of the border so that they can drive across and we can spend a little time together.

There is a Norfolk close to both myself and Pyro, but it's regional. (We're like 12ish hours from Ottawa and 11 from the Canada border, so yeah.)

Forgive my ignorance, but what's a Norfolk?

Norfolk is a town close to where Super and Pyro live that has a regional airport. Believe he meant "airport" there.

My apartment is a bit small itself, but I'm willing to host as many people as would be comfortable.

I'm game if it's in the Virginia area. If it's much more North, consider me out. It'd be easier for transportation, etc if I'm not guaranteed the car two days to pick things up. I'd love to come though. Plus my native birth of my wonderfulness is December 12, so I may come packing cupcakes.

While I have plenty of time to do this, I might as well get this question out of the way now, for future reference.

I have two ways of coming into the Minimeet, though, only one of which needs to be brought up:

Should I take a Greyhound directly down there, where should I take it to?

Then yeah, I can definitely make it provided nothing fucks up magically. It's only like an hour and a half from where I am?
