GBAtemp Meeting in London

Hey everyone, fellow tempers!

We've been planning a meeting for a couple of weeks now.
Only, the meeting topic was posted in the staff forum which is obviously a problem for non-staff members willing to come and join us.
So, in this topic we'll discuss what we're going to do, what time we meet and where.

Where?
Well it appears that the Victoria tube station is a good place for most people, so we'll probably just meet there at first.
It's recommended for anyone to have an oyster card or something that allows you to use the tube on an unlimited basis.

Who?
Confirmed members to come: Costello, Little, shaunj66, dice, the teej, Thug4L1f3 (& Mrs Thuguette), jaxxster
Likely to come: moozxy, inf, Hadrian
Probably won't come but you never know: ShadowXP, xcalibur

When?
Well if you haven't noticed the topic description, it's on November 29th (next Saturday).
As for the time, well it depends on when you can make it.
Apparently 10am at Victoria tube station for the earliest, then we'll see about the others later?

What?
- Definitely bring your DS and games or flash cart.
- We're going to the Trocadero (a 4-floor arcade)
- We'll probably have lunch somewhere, maybe dinner too in the evening, depends who's still around
- any suggestions?


--- extra question: can I come too?
well if you're a long time member and think you'd feel comfortable hanging around with us (a bunch of 20-30 yr olds), then feel free to join us! It's gonna be fun!


Photos will be posted in another blog post after the meeting!
See ya all!

How about your knee-to-groin escapade?
 
Your eyes in the first picture scare me, Shaun.

They're staring into my soul...
 
Oh lawd, I look like 3x as big as I usually am in that DDR picture :rofl:

Also, that DDR game was really weird, it had the buttons in the middle and in the 4 corners, not in the regular 4 directions :/

Dice, Costello, Little (who's hiding!), Psyfira, jaxxster and shaun, in left-to-right order. I was taking the picture.

I also took this one, should have got the tempers in there really, but I really liked the look of it so I took it anyway.
 
I like the group picture (first one), I'd like I could meet you guys, but that was just a bit too far away :(

Also, dice, you're soooo daaark, almost invisible at that picture :P (I'm sorry if I offended you, it surely wasn't my intention, and feel free to remove this part ;) in that case)..

And little, I love that shirt of yours (you look EMO in that picture :P )
And Costy, what to say, cool as always!
 
I probably look emo in all the pictures because i sulked any time a camera came near me!! =p

but yeah, was good hustle everyone!
 
[quote name='Costello' post='1589792' date='Nov 29 2008, 01:56 AM']I was of course implying that I would be welcoming shaun at the coach station. And then we'll meet y'all at the tube station.

Noitora: actually I live in New Zealand and am flying over to london just for the meeting.[/quote]
Fix'd - Give it the respect it deserves.

You wish you lived there... :ph34r:
 
Yes, i know this thread is old, too bad. Hadn't seen it before, and just took a look at the pics.

I'm jealous to fuck and back. I would have LOVED to have been there. I have such a soft spot in my heart for London, and getting to meet all you crazy kids would have been a blast.

Hopefully in the near future, i can get an east coast US meet up going (i've been working some info on my end before presenting a serious request in the forums again heh), and hopefully get my ass over the pond at some point this next year to catch up with you all.

Mmmmm... geeks from around the world, getting together... its... beautiful. :cry:
 
That reminds me, I've still got the video of Little and The Teej getting their jig on, on DDR to upload :evil:
