SE5 Launch Party

dogscoff · #1 September 29th, 2006, 07:03 AM

For those that find North America a distant and expensive prospect, would there be interest this side of the pond for a UK or EU- based party? Would be quite cool to have it at the same time, and then maybe run some internet games between the two groups. Maybe even 'merge' the parties via webcasting and big screens..?

(BTW I am NOT offering to organise any such EU-party. Unless it was right in my neighbourhood I probably wouldn't even be able to attend myself)

*cough* UK *cough*

But what would you do at a launch party...
Drinking/Socialising?
Actually play the game?
Showcase in-the-works projects?
Just a regular party in honour of the launch?

I suppose it depends on how many people planned on turning up for a start...

Why do you have to have all those places out west? Why not one in Ohio, where the PBW server is located?

Or did the PBW server move up to Canada by Tesco? Grumble grumble

No, it's still here. But it doesn't run SE5, so maybe if you are talking about locations for the SE5 launch party the location of the PBW server doesn't make the most sense.

SOUTH DAKOTA is "out west"??? I'd have described it as "back east" if you asked me

And let's stop and think a sec here...November...in South Dakota....

Uhh, can you say "cold", boys & girls? Can you say "snow" and "tire chains", and most of all, "freezing my *** off?"

Of course you can!

Now let's think about San Diego in November....mmmmm, warm, sunny, beaches, girls in bikinis...

Obviously, South Dakota is the best choice! (cough cough)

Vegas will be nice and warm too, though it lacks the beaches.

It has the beaches, its missing the water LOL.

Tire chains? I've never even seen a car or truck with tire chains. Also its hardly that cold around these parts the average temp for this area in November isn't even freezing.

Also the average temp for san diego is 62F with half the month cloudy or partly cloudy with rain. Hardly beach weather.

Edit: Also on the west coast you have all the smog and crime and hippies.

Hey, you're making it sound like my kind of place!

I voted for San Francisco, though either Vegas or South Dakota would be equally practical for me. I could make it to any of them. Actually, I could make it to anywhere other than the Eastern US or Canada.

As for drinking...though I'm under 21, I could bring my own...um...drinkable substances
