Ontario-area SE-player get-together summer 2k3!

[Despotic Fiend]

Myself(moving to Toronto this spring) and a friend have been discussing the possibility of getting as many SE-players from the Ontario area together at one time as possible to hang out for a weekend. We have discussed this with several people and they all seem fairly interested.

I thought I'd post about it now so that people could hopefully try and plan a free weekend in the summer to do this during. It'd be nice to have as many of us together at once as possible. Meet, hang out, get to know each other, play SE, MOD, whatever. Anyhow, who would be interested in this?

[Captain Kwok]

Dude, I'd be in. I also know a few others in the region like Tesco who'd be interested. BTW I'm at in the Victoria Park + Eglinton Area.

Kwok, do you have AIM? my sn on AIM is g3n3r4l3n1gm4 also I go in the SE4 IRC channel as Despotic_Fiend

You know Nick(E3) I take it, that's who I'll be moving in with when I move up there. The plan is he gets his place, I move there and get a job we continue apt. sharing....

[tesco samoa]

Yea I am in

I am hoping some of the other guys in the area wanna join in

David G , Deathstaker SJ for example.... http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif

Kwok maybe we will see that ball game.

If I was in that area I would so be there. But being clear down in Indiana it would be hard to get up there. Too bad Indiana isn't a popular place where alot of SE players are. We could do same thing here...
Malfador should start hosting conventions once a year in a central location. That would be awesome! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

Could people from Quebec come?

[tesco samoa]

TC that would be nice to meet you.

Ohio people welcome as well

[Despotic Fiend]

Hey TC, and anybody else who's reading this and going "hey man why can't I come", just 'cause of the topic don't mean that people from outside of ON can't come. Any SE fans would be welcome - it'd be nice to have a big group of us all together at once http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

If I get rich between now and the summer, I'll be in=-)

A little holiday in Canada would do me nicely.
*dogscoff starts looking up prices for transatlantic flights...

[Markavian]

Transatlantic flights from the UK to Toronto cost around £300 ~ £350 (inc. tax), + another £100 for food money, and taxi fare.. a cardboard box. I think its kinda do-able.

You could always plan to organize something at CanGames next May. It's in Ottawa.

[tesco samoa]

and remember 1 pound is worth about 2.35 CDN

So everything is cheap cheap cheap..

[geoschmo]

Rags you drive to Ohio first and we can carpool. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif

[tesco samoa]

[sparhawk]

And if you guys are carpooling.....den haag is not that far....

[Captain Kwok]

I am in if this happens!

[jimbob]

I'll be flying over to Cornwall ON sometime this summer. If we get lucky on the timing, I could make it... that is if Albertans are welcome http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif

[Katchoo]

I'd be up for this, especially if it's in Ottawa (I could bike to the Convention!).

Toronto's not bad I guess... I'll be sure to bring my Senators jersey to tease all those Leafs fans cheering for a team that's going out in the first round http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif

[Instar]

Ill go to any SE4 convention, just so long as it is on campus...

[TerranC]

If it happens this year, count me out http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon9.gif Too busy with real life. Perhaps in 2004...
