Bay Area/California meetup

[SilentNight]

Well, let's get this thing confirmed. I'm proposing Sep. 13, 3:00, at Eudemonia. I'll be the one wearing the green floppy hat.

Is that ok with everybody? I'm just trying to work with the date that seems to be fine for everybody...

Like I said, I'm always somewhere until 3:30, even then, I might be going to a show with some of my friends... feel free to do it without me. This sunday is the Solano stroll too so that's out of the question..... Sorry, don't think I can go.

Also, there are fencers in this group?! Sweetness

Pleased ta meet'cha. , Nice avie Joe.

I must learn more of this pudding....

[averagejoe]

....
I consider myself a guy. Actually.
So, uhm, no fight for dominance necessary. ja?

Also, off by 5 years age wise. How was it you thought I was female?

Your name is pretty girl-ish. I actually thought the same thing before looking about a centimeter down.

[Alleine]

Hm, maybe I should change it then. After all it was made in a fit of angst while listening to Rammstein. And those are generally less than perfect decisions.

[Pocketa]

My apologies, Alleine. I was mistaking you for Xeluu. I thought that post-versation sounded sort of familar.

Xeluu, I fight everyone, nothing personal.

Alleine, age?

[Alleine]

Whew! I was wondering how I got mistaken like that!
I was very worried for a second there.

I'm 18, and I just started taking a fencing class in college. So meeting more fencers is pretty kewl.

EDIT: Also I'd rather not have to fight you. My weakness is well known throughout the land.

[SilentNight]

Yeah, I like it too. Icewalker's one as well.

[Xeluu]

My apologies, Alleine. I was mistaking you for Xeluu. I thought that post-versation sounded sort of familar.

Xeluu, I fight everyone, nothing personal.

Alleine, age?

No offense taken, and I can relate on the whole not particularly getting along with other females bit. :/ The others I've hung out with in the past tend to get rather gossipy and catty when in groups.

As far as this Saturday goes, I'm not aware of any plans I have yet, so I'll put myself down as a possibly.

Fight, fight, fight, fight, fight, fight, fight, fight.

So, oh my god! Did you hear about his boyfriend? Srysly!!

Anyway, next saturday at 3 is a can do here. Bring magic cards again I suppose? Anything else we want to do?

[Kelmeras]

I'll definitely be sure to bring my MtG deck along.

Count me in for this Saturday.

[averagejoe]

Fight, fight, fight, fight, fight, fight, fight, fight!

[CommodoreFluffy]

Nice Jayne avvie. anyways, I'd come, but I don't meet up with internet peeps, just a s a rule of thumb, no offense.

[Ishmael]

Well, I don't play M:tG, so I think I'll bring a standard deck of cards. Plus, somebody should bring board games or something. I don't care too much, though.

[Pocketa]

Xeluu, you sound like my type of person.

Joe, you provide the pudding.

They have boardgames there, first-timer.

[Icewalker]

Yeah, I'm the other fencer. The third fencer who may or may not come doesn't really post. At all. He does have an account though.

I...may come. I am similarly busy until 3:30/4, and will probably be really busy that weekend with all the other stuff going on, so I may have too much work to be able to make it.

@averagejoe's avatar: I definitely saw that around, a long time ago. Go firefly avvies.

[Ishmael]

Yeah, my time on Saturday is becoming a precious resource, and given that I might have a chance to go to Yosemite, I might very well have to be flexible.

Hey, it's cool so many of you guys are fencers. I used to, a year ago, compete at a Junior level for Sabre. I wasn't willing to put in the time, though, to be good.

[averagejoe]

Yosemite is pretty awesome. I was there just a couple of weeks ago.

Pudding... what a good idea.

[String]

Hey, sorry to bother, but I'm from the Bay Area. Could I ask where you're meeting (City?)

[Pocketa]

Icewalker needs to figure out if he's going, because if he is, I can't. No, not a flame war, at least on the forums. Just some rough patches that I don't feel like dealing with, and neither does he.

[averagejoe]

Hey, sorry to bother, but I'm from the Bay Area. Could I ask where you're meeting (City?)

Berkeley. Specifically a game shop on University avenue. Eudemonia, or some such.

Edit:
@Pocketa: Oh great, my parents again. You guys are gonna give me issues.

Seriously, though, do what you feel you have to. I'd miss either of you, though.

[Pocketa]

They have boardgames and stuff too!

[SilentNight]

God I love Yosemite, had some interesting times there. Don't expect to see me but I might show up.

[Icewalker]

Me and SilentNight both fence foil. Haven't tried sabre, but it looks interesting. Can we team up to make fun of people that fence épée?

Probably not going, it's going to be a busier weekend than normal and I have a lot of work on weekends especially now.

[Alleine]

Why would we make fun of epee fencers? Those are the kind of swords that go through everything. Or at least everything your opponent is made of.
I'd really like to learn all three, just to know them. Gonna get my foil and equipment on Wednesday :D

Its looking like I'll be able to show up, the fence is slowly being assembled this week. Now I just need to hope my parents don't freak that I'm meeting a bunch of people from the internet.

[Poison_Fish]

Seriously, though, do what you feel you have to. I'd miss either of you, though.

Indeed. Though I enjoyed both of your presences, do what's needed.

[SilentNight]

Indeed. Though I enjoyed both of your presences, do what's needed.

Looks like you'll get that 40/40 indestructible flying elf this time.

[Pocketa]

I'm giving Icewalker priority as it is his forum more than it's mine. Frankly, I care less about it than him. This isn't my main site, and I don't even care about my main much. Nothing personal, I just don't have the time. This may be the only thing I've seen him love, and I'm not taking that away from him, no matter how awful it gets between us. Details need not be posted, etc. but tl;dr we're not friends, seeing each other would end badly. Very, very badly.

I may go. I won't have homework.

[Poison_Fish]

Looks like you'll get that 40/40 indestructible flying elf this time.

To the sky, you curs, for we shall destroy your ugly ways!

And thus, the world will be beautiful.

Man I hate elves. >_>.

[Pocketa]

Oh no, what did I miss? 40/40 flying elves?

But they don't have protection from...

SORATAMI!

[averagejoe]

Just don't take your eyes off the fungus. 'Cuz 20 40/40's are even better than one.
