THE FIRST FLIPSIDE EURO MEET-UP
Ok, to ensure that there is a potential of realising this, I thought it best to create this thread. As to have somewhere to seriously discuss possible places and dates :)
Because I'd love to meet most of you people!
And as such, I would offer my flat as one potential meeting place. :)
-
I still think the euro meetup should be in Toronto ;P
-
I can assure you it will, as soon as we can arrange an airlift of the Toronto land-mass to the awsome side of the atlantic ocean ;)

but it's already here :P
-
ERROR! ERROR! DOES NOT COMPUTE GOTO?:Y/N
X_X
EDIT: Well, it doesn't matter anyway, you are still wellcome over here if you care to spend that much money
-
But...I'm not in Europe! I'm in Minnesota!
Anyone here live near Minnesota?
-
Or Los Angeles? ;P
-
Maybe somebody should make a US meet-up suggestion thread so we can argue US locations>.>
-
If I had the money I'd take a vacation in Europe. You guys have delicious food and better chocolate and hot european sex T-T
(also, I made a new thread)
-

So, I take it that England is a last resort then?
-
And so that means Scotland is off the list?
-
Well, as for a Euro meet up, England or Scotland is just as viable as Sweden IMO :)
-
I'm not setting my feet in the USA. Nowai! I'd rather swim back to Europe if someone took me on a ship or plane there.
I'm not so stuck up I think the USA is that bad, but it's one of my only life time promises, never to go there.
-
Well, my squirrelly friend, you are in luck then! Because this will be taking place right here on OUR side of the atlantic :)
Now, if we can scramble enough money, maybe we can get Brion to show up too if we offer to pay the trip :P
-
Emp remember Brion is a Lobster he can swim the Atlantic ;D :P
-
:o A Euro meeting? Hmm.. I think that's to scary for my liking
-
Why is that?
-
issues bebeh, serious issues :p
-
issues bebeh, serious issues :p
If it eases your mind any, it would be in a public place for obvious reasons.
-
Neh, i would be all akward and stupid and make a complete fool of myself. But i would cheer you guys on the forum :p and i would demand pics!
-
so still no luck on where we are meeting up then
-
I'm a bit with Selan here. I don't think I could show my face among all of you unless I could bring a friend whose arm to cling to and whose back to hide behind.
...And I don't have any friends I could ask to come with me to a kinky-comic meetup. Ahem.
-
Selan would let you cower behind her I'm sure. ;)
-
If it's any consolation, I don't hit on people anywhere near as much in real life.

..That's not quite what I meant. :'D I'm not -that- conceited, that I think everyone would hit on me! No one probably would, IRL. You know, I don't have photoshop, good light and good angles in real life...
It's... Something else.

Even more issues!!!!!!!
-

Um, I was more thinking along the lines of a private party/sleepover XD
Since I got the impression that there aren't more than maybe ten of the flipsiders I usually socialize with that's europeean?

If this is the case, then no. You'll have to do without the Panda. :]
-
Awww :( even if you could bring a friend to hide behind?
-
Not even then, no. ._.
-
Why?
-
Why?
...'cuz.
-
You afraid? :(
-
Aw come on this should be fun, it's about who's going let's focus on that. Maybe the ones that are unsure like me and Raz will join in afterall. Or not, but that shouldn't be a problem.
I know almost certain that Leana would come :D
-
Dont worry Selan and Razzly I'll protect you from the mean Dragon 8) I suppose for those who dont want to meet up could go on line and use a web cam? This will give me a good reason to use my new passport and travel again ;D
-
That would be a great idea Odd! :)
-
I'm under 18, my parents would never let me.
-

if you know of a program that does that make sure you let us in on it. The one mentioned in the other thread can't video conference with more than one person >.<
-

By the time we get a definitive plan sorted out, you probably will be.
-
ROFL, oh well.. It's good to have dreams ;)

Oh, I'm not saying for the sake of - I've done these sort of things before, and it tends to take months for groups of people.
-
Meh, we are europeans. We do things quick ;)
-
Meh, we are europeans. We do things quick ;)
So I've noticed! Good lord, the things I have seen in this country...
-
So i guess the meeting is this weekend then?
-
So i guess the meeting is this weekend then?
Hell, why not? It wouldn't be the wierdest thing that's happened to me since I arrived.
-
Lol, we need to beat the Americans by getting a meeting first
-
naw, I think we should decide a place first, then time
How about at Leana's at 0600GMT August 21st? ;D
-
Sure i pm you all her adres!
-
Awesome, don't forget to send it to me too!
-
You don't need it you are on the other team!
-
No teams! I need that information so I can continue with... I may have said too much >.>;
*slinks into the shadows*
-
My adres??? WTF??? what happened and where does this leave me? :s
-
This leaves you with a bunch of random people showing up at your doorstep expecting food.
-
Tomorrow
-
Okay...so i've just read this thread...HELL yeah! Let's meet up! Sounds great...i'm in!Thou this weekend isn't really a good idea...as i need to work and next weekend i am on nightshifts...so i guess the weekend after that?

-
Wow, slow down there lassy!
We are still planning. And the odds are it won't be in holland
-

-
Hmm.....We could do a Tour - Host meets in every country we live in, in a sequence?
-

Wow I wasn't aware that leana was awesome :'(
-
Of course she is! What rock have you been living under >.>
-
Of course she is! What rock have you been living under >.>
hmm, she must hang out in games more often or role-playing. Stuff like that. Lately I mostly only ever stay in Free Talk. It's my favest place.
-
Bur Holland is a pretty decent location, it would make it roughly equally far for most of us with a couple of exceptions. Odd and Churba would be able to cross the canal and go north, I'd drive through denmark and the be almost there, Andrea wouldn't have as long way from Italy to there as he would if we held the meetup at my place even though Razzly and Chag would have a longer trip if they chose/could to come. :)
So, Chag, when is your 18th birthday? hmm, you 16 or 17? doesn't remember
-
Be able to pick up Churba on my way south and a couple of others I suppose as we do a Euro road trip to Holland ;D

I'll ring the Aus embassy to see if my visa is cool for it.
-
My 17th birthday is Octobre 17th. So some time after that next year, or later?
-
I think that sounds feasible :)
-
But! Will we all still be here?
-
Well, I guess that question's answer lies with Brion's storytelling skill, and endurance :)

I dunno about it - the Ghastly's Ghastly comic forum is still active, and the comic's been over for about three years.

Ok so i've been thinking about this.... Since i am sure that Leana will come to a meeting and she is my side kick.. I can't let her go all by herself. So yeah..... I'll be there.
And i've also been thinking about Razzly and the whole traveling stuff etc etc etc.
I have thought about some options.
1: The meeting is in Holland. Most likely that would be Amsterdam, you could travel to Holland i could pick you up when you are in holland, we could drive to Leana's place Pick her up and go to Amsterdam and afterwards (if posible) crash at Leana's place if not.. Crash at a hotel.
2: The meeting is in England. I could pick you up once you are in Holland, we drive to Leana, take a train to hoek van Holland. Take the ferry (cus i don't fly) Take a train to wherever the meeting is and stay in a hotel.
Upside: You don't have to travel alone to the meeting (and i iz not scary at all)
Downside: You have to travel with two crazy chicks (Leana iz totaly scary) not really (yeah she is)
But yeah.. That way you don't have to be alone when you go to the meeting, and i'll be all alone when i pick you up so we will both be ackward and silly and i have no friend to back me up.
And us girls can stick together when we go and meet those men :p
I know you have other thinks on your mind for now.. But think about it, the meeting will probably take ages to plan so there's no hurry and no quick decisions and no pressure. ;)
-
Wow, that's... Really, really nice of you Selan. <3 Thank you.
But still, this is not something I can think about right now, nor afford (especially since my very last savings appear to have been stolen.) Maybe sometime in the future.
I'm also painfully shy, and long social gatherings exhaust me to the point that I just shut everyone off unless I can go somewhere private and do my own stuff. Especially if everyone in the group is someone I don't know. ._.
-
But! Will we all still be here?
Well I could be here depending on if,when and where I can get a job but will try and meet you all if this goes ahead.

Well, i would realy like to see you join us in this meeting.
I know how excausting it is, i kinda have the same problem, being with a lot of people i don't know really gets on my nerves and takes a lot of energy. That's partly why i give the option to let me pick you up. We both have about the same issues with strangers and crowds, and if i pick you up all by myself we'll both be in a situation where one doesn't know the other. That way we can kinda get used to eachother before we have to meet any more strangers. I'm basicly a very relaxed person and i've heard that people feel comfortable with me quite easily because of that. Also i automaticly look after people i feel responsable for so that's basicly what would happen if i pick you up. I would take care of you and would make sure that you would be ok. Also, our means of travel are fairly cheap, if we go with my car we could devide the costs by three even tho i wouldn't expect a payment for gas. And i would even go that far by saying that money isn't an issue and you could pay me back later if you wish.
But like i said, the meeting probably will take a long while to plan. I just wanted you to know that you wouldn't be alone at all and that i have your back. So yeah... Think about it ;)

I'm very easy to get along with, or so I'm told, even if you don't know me - I'm a slight culture shock to people for whom english isn't a first language, but that's mostly because I use some very odd idioms, as a product of being Australian.
-
You're incredibly sweet Selan! <3 But like I said, I can't consider this now. It has to be sometime in the future, when I'm more stable economically and have moved and gotten everything fixed.
-
That's ok, we'll wait. Hopefully chag can join too then.
-
If this does not happen I'll just have to travel and visit you all one by one 8)
-
Sooooooo..... Any date yet?
-
dissnae look like it :-\
-
@Razz....Selan thinks i am the one who doesn't have issues with meeting other ppl...But actually i'm never scared when i am together with Selan, cause i can hide behind her :) I just tell her i am not scared and then i think she always starts talking and makes conversation and is all social and stuff...i think she just never noticed i take advantage of that :) I think i'm mostly the shy one...
With a big mouth at times...especially when i feel good ;D
Anyway...what's the date?
-
Todays date is 14.09.09 there you go Leana
-
Lol...and thats sarcasm ;D
-
And thats what I'm good at.....that and spreading doubt and chaos where ever I go 8)
-
Hmm, how about setting a date and make it anual?
-
Wow...that sounds really good :) I'd like to go to Scotland...as i haven't ever been there, and i guess that's a place Selan would do as well, cause we can go by boat! And what about somewhere in April? Or do you guys think that's to far of?
So i told you guys what i would like, but what would you guys like?
-
Now that seriously sounds like a plan, would have to take out vacation and make sure there are no major homeguard exercises at that time, but otherwise Scotland in April sounds great :)
-
Would be really awesome!!! It will be weird to see everyone and those names? I mean...Odd will always be Odd...I don't know his other name and i will prob never be able to remember his other name...just like every-one else that is...
-
We should just use our forum names hehehe
-
Well, I don't think my GF will allow me to go to Scotland without her, other than that I'm totally up for it. Maybe a long-weekend? friday-sunday or saturday-monday?
-
Long weekend sounds good to me but april is very far away :(
-
Aye, but any sooner and a lot of people won't be able to make it, I among those.
-
I know, i'll be patient ;)
-
Thing is my forum name is my nickname in the outside world :) :-[ Think I have put up my real name in here some where. Be able to meet Leana and Selan at the Rosyth dock yard if they get the ferry.
-
It would be so cool....Can we set a date yet...cause it would be nice for me to ask those dates off at work....
How about 23 april untill 25 april?
I'll just wait for people to protest ;D
Anyway...I'd say just bring your GF emp...and again...that's my opinion :-X...The more the marrier...or something like that ;)
OOoohhhh...and and and will we go rockclimbing? And and and and will we see all the beautifull stuff...Getting a bit excited....whoops :p
Anyway, uhmmm what will we do?
-
Thing is my forum name is my nickname in the outside world :) :-[ Think I have put up my real name in here some where. Be able to meet Leana and Selan at the Rosyth dock yard if they get the ferry.
And if I have my Moto back from the custom shop by then, I can meet you there.
-
Dont know about the rock climbing Leana, missed a lot of trips out on the hills and diving due my left knee and its tendonitis :-\ but I'm sure we can find something.
-
Walking in a straight line?... could be challenging for some come the end of the evening...
-
Ok I'll break out the abseiling ropes to keep everyone in a big group
-
Hrmmm rope... buwahahahahaha
No wait dot want to scare Selan and Leana off yet. need them to acept my offer of a lift "to the meet" first.
-
Have I sprung the trap too soon? :o
-
I hope not....
-
we just have to wait and see
-
P.s - Odd, Do you have anywhere I could park my bike? I can't exactly take it with me all the time.
-
I'd think my best bet would be joining up with Selan and Leana on the mainland end of the ferry :)
-
Have we set at date yet? or has the date i chose been accepted?
-
what sort of bike is it Churba? motorbike,mountain bike? it will be safe here since I live on a street full of Polis and also have a large(ish) back garden
-
I won't know until february if I'll be able to make those dates, otherwise they sound fine to me :)
-

Motorbike, ZZR-600 Custom. I should have it back from the shop by April or so.
-
Still 23 untill 25 th april btw?
-
Also, Menu suggestions.
-
Bondage Nyotaimori
-
:'( the bondage part I understand but need to look up the last part Akashayi
-
Sushi served on top of a naked female body.
If Churba is cooking... and I am magically given a ticket and am able to travel, I'll take care of the bondage. Group effort!
-
As long as you dont use a Tawse Akashayi...............had one used on me a few weeks ago and dont want to try it again in a hurry :'( :'(
-
For the benefit of those who don't speak Scots. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tawse)
-
*face plant* Do'h keep on forgeting about that thanks Churba
-
*face plant* Do'h keep on forgeting about that thanks Churba
S'all good.
-
Oi! I'm cooking too!
-
just because you are a walking/flying barbique does not mean you get to cook as well Emp ;D
-
Try to stop me...
-
Ok, time for a revival of this?
-
oh nice topic, I'd love a Euro meet-up. Too bad you're not considering the awesome splendid (sarcasm) country I live in! (Italy, yeah! Pizza, Mafia, Spaghetti!)
If I'm to come I'll probably bring with myself my gf, otherwise I could be tempted by Leana's sexiness, since she sponsors it.
-
so is the plan still for me to meet you all at Rosyth docks? or is it a road trip to the Netherlands and meet up with Selan and Leana?
-

I'll propably be catching the train up to scotland, if we're going the other way, I'm gonna have to see how I go.
-
well If I'm heading South could call past and pick you up Churba
-
well If I'm heading South could call past and pick you up Churba
I'm up for that, rock and roll, man.
-
Nice...plans are starting to come together!
-
the netherlands then, is it?
-
As long as its not in May next year meant to be flying to Russia about then for a Veteran's reunion. dont worry Churba got a Sat Nav for the Green Bomber (pics will appear soon) so be able to go straight to your door.
-
NOOOOOO!! I want to go to scotland!:P

*Laughs* That's what you think - One of the advantages of the new place is that it doesn't show up on SatNav. I'm not that paranoid(But make sure you don't ring the doorbell, it makes the bouncing bettys quite upset - I kid) but it is a nice little bonus, that if you search my place for the most part, it doesn't exist.
S'alright though, if need be, I'll hit you up with an address that's near enough that you'll be able to find it.
NOOOOOO!! I want to go to scotland!:P
Meee Tooooooo!
-
right then make YOUR BLUDDY MINDS UP!! >:( >:( where are we going to meet up?
-
right then make YOUR BLUDDY MINDS UP!! >:( >:( where are we going to meet up?
*Shrugs* Don't look at me, I'm just the man in the middle.
-
I don't mind where we will meet up...I'm going to scotland around the 18th of April and i'm off untill the first of may! Planning to spend some time there anyway...
-
Hmmmmmmmm mini meet with Leana possibly? :D
-
She's trying to drag me along :'(
-
well why dont you?
-
She's scared :p
I still don't know why....im wouldn't ever do anything she wouldn't enjoy :P :-*
-
OHH!!!! You liar!!
-
LOL oh c'mon I not that scary am I? :o
-
What??!!....i'm cute and sweet and i would make you enjoy it ;D
Cause i <3 you!!! :-*
-
as long as its in April and not May since I wont be here.
-
Naaahhh....no May...April is good right?
-
I should be around "Sunny" Scotland some where just let me know nearer the time.
