Also, I'm so bringing Arkham Horror.

Meeplelard · « **Reply #26 on:** October 19, 2010, 03:49:33 AM »

I still intend on driving if I come down, mostly cause it saves me a good 4 hours and I like being at more leisurely pace.

Anybody who plans on flying and hasn't bought tickets yet (does such a person exist?) might want to check this Southwest offer.

OblivionKnight · « **Reply #28 on:** November 01, 2010, 09:23:57 PM »

Highly unlikely, but there is a possibility I may need to cancel so I can head out to Anaheim for Mid Year - or leave early. Not likely, but possible - we'll see after Thanksgiving.

Sir Pyro, wouldst it be appropriate if I shouldst arriveth on the eve of the second day in the month of our Lord's Birth?

Pyro · « **Reply #30 on:** November 05, 2010, 02:02:56 AM »

Yeah, I'm taking the 2nd and 3rd off. So sure.

If you talk like that though I'm going to club you and use you as fuel for my fireplace.

OblivionKnight · « **Reply #31 on:** November 10, 2010, 03:11:09 PM »

Yay fireplace!

You live at the same place, Pyro?

I will leave...probably mid-morning-ish on Thursday, then, and drive down to you. Make it there...1600 or so? And leave whenever you want to kick us out Sunday.

(I'm taking Monday off anyway, so early, late, it does not matter)

Meeplelard · « **Reply #32 on:** November 10, 2010, 07:06:10 PM »

So if we're staying at Pyro's place again, would it be right to assume that OK gets the closet?

Tide · « **Reply #33 on:** November 11, 2010, 05:05:14 AM »

Ok, I am confirming my flight. I'll be arriving at Newport News at 3:58 p.m. on Dec 2nd - flight 4116. Hopefully someone can come by and pick me up :|. Hold up a WA sign and I'll know.

Also, Pyro, I hope you don't mind crashing at your place >_>. Seemed like I was the only person who wanted to go to the hotel, which would be kinda inconvenient for everyone else. My parents seemed okay with it.

Xeroma · « **Reply #34 on:** November 11, 2010, 06:01:07 AM »

Based on my previous experiences at Pyro I'm pretty sure he won't give a shit Tide. Don't worry.

Yeah, don't worry about rides. Pyro and I will both have cars, and OK is driving in as well.

OblivionKnight · « **Reply #36 on:** November 11, 2010, 12:15:53 PM »

Is the Newport News airport on the way in from my direction? I should be arriving at about the time Tide's flight touches down, so me picking him up should be workable (and save a drive for Pyro)

Grefter · « **Reply #37 on:** November 11, 2010, 12:18:28 PM »

Yeah don't worry at all guys, you can get in a car with Super driving.

superaielman · « **Reply #38 on:** November 11, 2010, 02:09:09 PM »

*Smack* Bad, I am a safe driver.

OK: Newport news airport is literally five minutes from Pyro's, so it should be easy for him to nab people. Ican as well in a pinch.

OblivionKnight · « **Reply #39 on:** November 11, 2010, 11:03:20 PM »

Ok then!

Also, we must watch movies/stuff this year. I will definitely bring Scott Pilgrim and some other awesome classics (Jesus Christ Vampire Hunter, Mystery Men, etc.). Maybe we can show people the power of Firefly, and teach all the heathens with word of the great lord Joss Whedon?

Meeplelard · « **Reply #40 on:** November 12, 2010, 12:11:22 AM »

Tentative Plan: Flying now, into either Newport News or Norfolk (depends if I want to fly out of Newark or La Guardia; both options are equally valid and have their ups and downs), probably arriving somewhere between 10 and 11. I'll get more specifics when I actually get tickets.

Leaving...probably Sunday, unsure about time; it'd be about 6 PM latest I seem to recall? Again, depends on which Airport.

Pyro · « **Reply #41 on:** November 12, 2010, 01:45:28 AM »

This all seems pretty reasonable. I can grab Tide when he comes in on his flight. I'll get more definitive stuff from Meep and nab him when he gets in.

Meeplelard · « **Reply #42 on:** November 12, 2010, 04:46:46 PM »

Oh, should note I do NOT intend on bringing Challah again this minimeet; I know it makes awesome french toast, but if I'm flying, it'd be a larger pain in the ass to bring and all that.

So either someone else buys it, or we just don't have it <_<

superaielman · « **Reply #43 on:** November 18, 2010, 02:40:07 AM »

The only Jewish bakery I knew about in the area closed down, sadly.

Meeplelard · « **Reply #44 on:** November 18, 2010, 06:57:16 AM »

You can find Challah at many super markets actually; at least down here you can. Worth a look at least?

OblivionKnight · « **Reply #45 on:** November 20, 2010, 03:05:28 PM »

Note to bring PS3 controllers. I have 1 I'll bring. We want 4 to play Marvel: Ultimate Alliance (Tide is bringing both of them)

Tide · « **Reply #46 on:** November 20, 2010, 03:31:07 PM »

My MUA copies are on Xbox 360 >_>. I don't think your PS3 controllers are going to help :O

On that note, note to self to bring both MUAs. I also have Front Mission 5 in Jap that I can bring along, but Pyro needs to have a modded PS2 or non-modded asian PS2

OblivionKnight · « **Reply #47 on:** November 20, 2010, 03:33:14 PM »

Then...uh...bring XBox Controllers!

Scar · « **Reply #48 on:** November 20, 2010, 06:06:41 PM »

I'm going to be in Virginia December 17-19. Just thought I'd let you all know this will be as close to getting a Scargasm as you have ever been!

superaielman · « **Reply #49 on:** November 20, 2010, 06:15:19 PM »

Where in the state?
