Re: UKitp 11 - Y'all should join us in the fun!
So I finally made it back to my laptop and the internet. The post-post-post-post-post-post-post-post-meetup-meetup-meetup-meetup-meetup-meetup-meetup-meetup meetup is indeed over (Incidentally, if we keeping doing extended ones (Which we totally should), we might have to rethink the prefixes. Maybe start talking about 're-meetups' or something).
Absence of my Goddess notwithstanding, I'd say this was the best meetup yet.
Penzance!
IIRC, that was actually a suggestion for next summer rather than for the winter meet.
Amazingly! Pictures are coming.
I support this plan. Leicester sounds good.
Might just end up as an insane lag-fest, but we could try.
Though regarding his inactivity, I did PM him to see if he wanted to come to this one, and he said he was too busy but would definitely try to come to the next one.

And, moving on, Curly: What's going on in Oxford on the 17th?"'But there's still such a lot to be done...'
YES. THERE ALWAYS IS."

Re: UKitp 11 - Y'all should join us in the fun!
A few thoughts on the folks I meeted:
Thufir & Tasaroth: You were both wonderful hosts and I am deeply indebted to you. Tas, I'd be really interested in seeing the finished article once its ready. Thufir, not only do you play a highly entertaining game of Braggart, you also seem to have a ninja somewhere in your ancestry, given that you managed to sneak into Qwaz's house without a roomful of people noticing.
Cassie: Mistress of the Tentacles, you also seem to have mastered the ancient ninja art of the sneak attack hug. You are like some sort of frizzy haired whirlwind and it is always an absolute joy to see you.
Lixie: It was wondeful to see you again hun and I really enjoyed those games of Eminent Domain. I was sad that you left without giving me a chance to hug you goodbye. Please attend the next meet-up so I can correct this oversight.
Lesser Minion: Kirby says hi. <( ^ - ^ )/
Dark Corax: I'm very grateful to you for teaching Qwaz how to play Magic. Please stop teaching him as I'd actually like to win a game now please.
Etcetra: You raise black cynicism to the level of an artform, sir. I salute you. o7
Strawberries: You are every bit as sweet and wonderful in person as your user name suggests. Call me the next time you and Snow Leopard are in London. ^_^
Snow Leopard/Cream: It was really cool to meet you. You make a highly convincing werewolf - I never suspected you for a second. oO
Dragonprime: Although Thufir is the King of Braggart, you have a voice wonderfully suited to playing it as well. I really hope we'll get to see you again sometime.
Lime: That was a very stylish outfit you were wearing and I appreciate the drink you bought me. It is, however, the last time I help you out in a game of Munchkin though.
Ku: Always great fun to see you and as usual you left a glowing example in the form of Cassie the Smoking Crater.
Hamish: I didn't really speak to you much at the Bradford Meet-up and I'm glad I got more of a chance to talk this time around.
Grlump & ladyfriend: I'd like to thank you for broadening my knowledge of hobo-disposal techniques and for hosting the WW games. Your gf was very quiet - I hope we didnt scare her.
Fifty-Eyed Fred: Although your appearence was brief, that awesome cape made it all the more dramatic.
Guy: Thanks for bringing Eminent Domain along, even if we did hog it for most of the evening. The stunt you pulled in the Hobo-WW game was hilarious! XD
Qwaz: A most gracious host with very comfortable floors. Your pro-WW skills don't seem to translate quite so well into AYTT but you always make a highly entertaining case. I might take you up on your offer towards the end of August if it's still open.
Serpy: <3. That is all.
Oh, forgot one...
Hateboar: Stop. Glaring. At. Me.

Aw, thanks
Qwaz doesn't believe that an Italian would have such a stereotypically Italian name, and also the combination of your and Strawberries' names (which none of us noticed til Qwaz pointed it out) blows his mind.The Iron Avatarist Hall of Fame!

Re: UKitp 11 - Y'all should join us in the fun!
It all seems so quiet.
To all those of you I'd met before, it was great to see you all again.
To anyone I hadn't met before, it was nice to meet you, and I hope to see you again.
To those people who couldn't make it, we missed you, hope you can make it next time.
It's times like this I feel I should say something, but I don't know what to say. I had a lot of fun, and I hope everyone else did as well.Last edited by Tasroth; 2012-07-11 at 06:55 AM.

Re: UKitp 11 - Y'all should join us in the fun!
You know... I had never really thought about that until you pointed it out...
I went " Wait, what combination..." and then I got it and started giggling like an idiot.
But yes, Qwaz... those are really our names. Sorry to disappoint (or to not disappoint, as the case may be. )
Same here. Hugs to all of you!

Ehm.
Well, remember that interview I had?
It paid off in a trial week, full pay and tips.
Starting Friday 13th, and finishing Thursday the 19th.
So yeah, the universe apparently thinks that Curly and Dragonprime meeting would, I don't know, cause the universe to implode from awesome or something.

Re: UKitp 11 - Y'all should join us in the fun!
This is the best description. xD
Lixie: It was wondeful to see you again hun and I really enjoyed those games of Eminent Domain. I was sad that you left without giving me a chance to hug you goodbye. Please attend the next meet-up so I can correct this oversight.
However, it's mildly annoying that I put all my board games in the attic from unuse about a month ago and am now trawling Ebay for copies of other ones... I WILL find Dungeonquest.
Dark Corax: I'm very grateful to you for teaching Qwaz how to play Magic. Please stop teaching him as I'd actually like to win a game now please.
Ku: Always great fun to see you and as usual you left a glowing example in the form of Cassie the Smoking Crater.

Re: UKitp 11 - Y'all should join us in the fun!
Perhaps. We can certainly quotestorm the average RB page into being about twice the length it normally is.
If nothing else it's one week of pay. Don't know if I'll get the job, see a little bird (read: Uncle) told me there was a mildly large case of mild food poisoning amongst the wait staff at the hotel (someone had a barbeque birthday party), so they may just be hiring to cover the ill staff until they come back.
I know. Qwaz should post more often, and come to more meetups! Spread the awesome Qwaz!

Re: UKitp 11 - Y'all should join us in the fun!
and good times were had by all
Thanks to Thufir and Tasroth for putting me up and dragging me to/from various metro stations and airports and the like. Also thanks to their mum for having the patience of an angel.
Thanks to Qwaz for driving us places. Mebbe 4 people in the 4 seater next time, though?
Thanks to everyone for making this the best meetup yet! Although one sadly deficient in the Curly and others department.
Now, pics plz

Certainly I think this was the best attended meetup I've been to. Counting one of my friends who signed up just after the meetup, I make it 21 Playgrounders (22 if we count Dragonprime's later appearance, 23 if we also count Curly's Skype appearance) plus five guests.

It is what it is unless it is what it isn't. Or isn't what it is. But if it isn't what it isn't then it is what it is.

Re: UKitp 11 - Y'all should join us in the fun!
Like tentacle hentai.
EDIT: I'll try and reserve a spot for Cassie as well. Wouldn't be the same otherwise. I'm picking up a copy of the game tomorrow (with luck) - I'll basically deal out the cards as if people were here and then PM people their various hands. In the interests of fairness I won't participate as a player but more along the lines of a GM.
Naturally, being text based, it gives people the chance to flesh out their stories which should prove.....interesting.
