Get Together ?
 

It's been a while since our last get together. Might have been to do with civ 5 not being as popular and/or suitable for lan-play or with changing lives for some members. But still, it's nice to meet up again some day.

Garee ?

Financially nailed to the ground. :(

We have a thread about this in the members area, and although everyone garees it doesn't seem to get off the ground. I think what killed the interest was that both PP and me mentioned that our residential areas are non-smoking zones ;)

On a related note, I think civ5 works fine on LAN, only pitboss sucks monkey balls.

Also:

Who is smoking anyway nowadays? [scratch]

Non-smoking would be no problem for me. Bringing a machine that runs Civ V would rather be (and finding a weekend where I find the time)

I have negative money so I'm out.

I think what is preventing lift off is lack of a date for starters I think.

How about one of these weekends in march?
3-4
10-11
17-18

March is getting close. If we aim for somewhere in may we could use my place, since by then the garden might be warm enough to hang out in. I think that I'm pretty busy in june/july.

May is fine with me. If you come up with a few option we can poll em

I can be there as long as I know it well in advance.

May is fine with me as well, one weekend might already be occupied however. Looking forward to it! :)

It's very unlikely that I will be able to come. :( But have fun!

Here's an apetizer from February 2006 ;):

Where would this be?

These were taken at Beam's.

I've lost about 25 kgs since then...

If it is at Beam;s place then it is in Breda.

So any particular weekend in May that we're looking at?

I'm all for Rik's suggestion to use a tool and get this thing off the ground, but unfortunately for some reason my time in that period is more limited than I thought. It's not as if it will prevent me from showing up, but it does prevent me to donate my home to the raging mobs for a whole weekend (I'm sure in another nine years of CDZ the people who already have kids will either tell me:

a. haha, nine years ago you actually thought you'd still have a life after you got your woman pregnant

or

b. haha, nine years ago your woman lured you into thinking you actually have some obligation to do stuff around the house while she is pregnant)

Anyway.

I still think it's a good idea to do something, even if it's just a cup of coffee. Good ideas and suggestions are welcome, and from now on I'll just keep on bumping this thread until we have a date, time and place.

I think it would be nice to do something but the reality is that with a family, buying and fixing up a house, and a couple of work trips coming up, my time is extremely limited this spring/summer... :(

OK, I got myself an account on datumprikker.nl but you need emailadresses to get this to work. Sad times


If all those interested would PM me there email, I'll set this up so we can start by finding a suitable date.

[bump]

Thanks for the bump, I'll fix this tonight. Still only 2 people provided an adress so I fear this datumprikker isnt gonna be very succesfull either. Maybe an oldfashioned poll after all.

I could host 2 people ;)

I assume that I won't have time to show up (not that I showed up at a previous meeting; but I still have in mind to attend someday), exactly for the same reason than Shabba...

Let's just say it's for a noble cause ;)

In late may, its only 600$ CAD to hop to Bruxelles on the Thursday to Friday flight and get back in Montreal on Sunday afternoon.

If only we were not over our head in house renovations, I may have been tempted.

E-mail address sent.

I play cricket every Saturday starting last Saturday until end of August...... But I'm in for a beer or two!

Email address sent as well.

So you're unavailable every saturday, sunday, monday and tuesday?

:D

Not good enough for that kind of cricket :( .

More time to drink beer then!
