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!

[quote name='ENDscape' post='1587562' date='Nov 27 2008, 02:03 PM']You do know its still far from niagara falls to toronto.[/quote]
yeah tru >.>
 
I would love to come to the meet-up since I'm still new to England and haven't met much people outside of work...

...but, even though I'm a long-time member, I would just feel awkward since no one really knows me on the forums.. AND, I don't get paid until the 1st anyways.
 
Awww....opportunity knocked but I have a lot to do this weekend and I don't have my DS so I'll be teh odd one out.

I really wanna see your faces.
 
Seen as it's virtually impossible to find a picture of me in that 64 page thread, I'll just post mine here:

I'm the guy on the right.
 
I wish I could make it but I don't think I'll be able to. I'm definitely up for the next one if there is one. For all you lucky people who are going have a great time!

We can meet up with you later, perferably somewhere in central london (e.g. @ oxford circus station at around 12 or 1 or something)

you'll have to walk to the underground tube station then xD
 
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.

    Just be careful, if trump ends up winning and using project 2025 America might really change...for the worse.
