Also, Super tells me MEeple's pickup/Metro trip has been resolved while I was grocery shopping, so thanks for that. I owe you people a beer.

I think that went pretty well! Thanks to everybody for making the trip out. Hope you all got home safely!

Was a lot of fun. We need more You Don't Know Jack at the next DLCon/Minimeet/whatever, even though I suck at that game.

Trip report: Got picked up by Pyro from Virginia beach at 7:30, getting up kicking and screaming. We got to Richmond around 9:30, picked up Xer, got parked in DC around 11:45, had an hour to kill. We killed about a half hour waiting for Meeple at the bus station in DC. Picked him up, wandered over to a barnes and noble and Best buy in Reston near Cid's, went to his apartment, waited for him to get home. Cid showed off the new batman game (awesome) and we played a bunch of HoD till Shale was ready. The actual time at Shale's was awesome, we spend times playing games, watching movies, and bullshitting. There were trip outs for food, game store runs, and general insanity whenever we gathered.   I read scott pilgrim the manga and a turtledove short story collection in there too, so good times.

The good: Local co-op HoD was absolute insanity and a blast; the LA noir game shale was playing looked like a must play. Why didn't you try to make me play it Grefter?!?! (For the record Grefter kicked everyone he could into the game).

The bad: OK and Glen having to cancel.

The ugly: That mall. What the fuck was that shit?

If you didn't show off the black and white mode of LA Noire I'm gonna smack you
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.

Racist.

In all seriousness, black and white mode? The game didn't come with a manual and I haven't FAQ'd, so anything that doesn't have an in-game tutorial I probably don't know about.

It's in the options somewhere, makes the entire game monochromatic for that hard-boiled 50s feel.

That is all well and good, but you don't get to see how insanely douchey Douchecoat's douchey coat is.

For serious, douchiest coat ever.

Glad everyone had a great time :) Good company, good food, good gaming is what meet ups are made of. I know I enjoyed it (two years ago, still haven't met Shale yet either =()~


I still have fond memories of Pyro playing SotC, Xer playing Dead Rising and fighting games, Meeple w/th his PSP/Dissidia ... and everyone getting tortured by Eternal Sonata's ending~

Now that I'm in VA we'll have to fix that the next time you come to the States. Road trip!

Uhmmmm Shale, do you have two Wii power supplies lying around your place? I can't find mine and I fear I may have brought it without realizing and left it lying around there.

You didn't actually plug it in, right? I think I remember that we used mine for that.

I'll check the nooks and crannies of my living room once I'm home.

Yeah I am very sure we used your wii's plugins too, which is why I'm so puzzled as to why I can't find it here at home.
