Meeting in real life, Lets hope I don't get banned for this...

This has the potential to be either the coolest or sketchiest topic out there.

My name is Carl Killian, I live durring the school year in Rhode Island and attend Roger Williams University in Bristol. I live about twenty minutes away from campus, and am about 45 minutes from the nearest airport, T.F. Green. I'm telling you all this because I consider you guys my friends, and I would really like to meet you all.

We often joke about having an "Alex Williams-con", but I doubt it's gonna happen in the near future given the comic's low (but loyal) fanbase. I guess this is in part coming from the "getting people to read Captain SNES" thread, or rather the having someone to have a face-to-face discussion aspect of it. The other part is I genuinely feel you folks are some of the coolest, most intellegent people out there, and I would be honored to have you folks spend a weekend at my place and chill.

What I propose is sometime durring either the Fall / Winter or Spring (durring my schools semester) you all drive or fly down Thursday mid-day. From there, we go to RWU where I show you my Alternative Entertainment Club and we have a showdown in some sort of a game tournament (Smash Bros, most likely). After that, we all go back to my place and spend the weekend together as I show you the sights around where I live, and go our seperate ways on Sunday. Ideally, I'd like to make this an annual thing, hosting it at different folk's places with me taking the first step (or I'll do it every year if no one else can).

You'd all stay at my place, I have plenty of free beds / couches / floorspace for sleeping bags. My home's fairly large, so it wouldn't be too cramped quarters either. Best of all, I'd be willing to pick up the tab for most of the food and likewise expenses.

So lemme know what you think of all this, and if at all possible when you'd like to do this.

I'm game. But then again you've already met me.

I can talk to Neko about it but I am sure we can think of something.

I'd be up to it if it was realistic for me x_x Alack, it's probably not. I've got an 18 credit schedule in the fall and probably something similar in the spring. Plus, the drive from NM to RI would be really freaking long and I doubt I can afford the trip ._.;

Plus the idea of tiny little me staying at a GUY'S house on the other side of the country would give my dad a heart attack.

I live too far away to do something like this.

Can't afford it either. :\

I would have, but automobiles and myself seem to be on opposing sides of a war. If you do it next year, I'm game.

I've already met four other members of CSNESF, I'll think about it.

I'm out, not only am I on the otherside of the country, but it just wouldn't work.

And who have you met already, Belle?

Me and Jogurt can carpool. (She lives one state up from me)

Leaving state isn't an option now... but that is something that will be changing... I'm in Utah myself.

OH that would be interesting.

When I daid I'm in... doubly so if Jogurt is coming...

If this comes to frution and I am able to go... we could rig up a car pool...

Rhode Island's close enough but...eh well I doubt my parents would care for it (dam them! Dam them and their insecurity!)

... Maybe I'm late to the party... but Jogurt is a she?

She annouced a gender change before becomming an admin and soon after quiting befire vanishing for a while.

Ah. Didn't mean to drag it out from the past.

trust me, her gender is the least of your worries.... The hive mind knows all...

So for those of you able to do it, when would be better, this fall / winter or next spring?

If we are thinking that far ahead Neko and I can't do it from Mid-November to December due to the holidays.
