Toronto Meet - Matias Tour Round 2 (July 11, 2015) - PICTURES PAGE 7

[FrostyToast]

I just filled out the form for keyboards.
Glad that no one has put down the stuff that I have to bring. Makes me feel special. 

I can also mod one of my boards to ISO and put OG dyesubs on it.

[ttzhou]

lol no one signed up to any cars yet.

No one wants to be the first. 

Maybe it's fear that one of the new guys offering (like me) are actually closet serial killers.

Wait till they come out of the closet..... wait.....

A good proportion of serial killers had homosexual tendencies...

Lol there's no way anyone will sign up with me now.

[dfj]

TL;DNR

 -  still need a ride, so - where do I sign?

PS: I can be reached on irc, often.

I've got a few boring stock keyboards, but those seem to be well covered by others, so I won't bother. I'll be bringing at least one atreus, maybe another one with different switches and caps. I could also bring a couple trackballs if anyone's interested, I've got a kensington expert, a kensington orbit w/ scroll ring, and a logitech marble mouse.

[Noko]

So I am going to get a rental cause there are a couple people I might bring, and of course keyboard related stuff, but will have room for at least 2 other people who may need rides. Pickup will be at Lansdowne station lot or very close by.

[Hyde]

Holycrap I didn't realize we're already 3 weeks away from the event.  Man time really went by fast.

I think after this week I will contact Matias again just to confirm that everything is still good to go.  In the mean time everyone try to get your car situation sorted out and buy more keyboards. 

Oh I noticed on the keyboard sheet there are 2 people with NovaTouch, can at least 1 of you bring it?  I'm curious as to the difference between NovaTouch and Realforce, thanks !

(If you can't it's not a huge deal either, I won't ban you from the trip LOL)

I will be bringing mine unless it's confirmed that someone else is bringing theirs. Unfortunately, I probably won't have Hack'd in until another week or two after the meet, so it'll just be DCS caps.

[CPTBadAss]

I'm out for this. Can't swing it. Would love to go but not this time. Just a heads up. I hope you all have an amazing time and please take many pictures. More importantly, eat a lot of food

[ttzhou]

you kids and your fancy, rare keyboards...

[Halverson]

I forget, was I supposed to bring anything? The less the better!
As for car, I have my car but it's unknown if I'll have a companion(which is the limit I want to put in my car). Then I'll prob be parking at my friends and public transport making my way to the after party

[Halverson]

Slip. Yay! You better not bail on me!

[dfj]

Yay - we may yet pull this off!

[Hyde]

Holycrap with geekhack down I was worried we might not be able to get the info out in time for everyone regarding this meet.

I hope this stays up now.

I'll send out pm to remind everyone later, but in the mean time  EVERYONE WRITE DOWN THE TIME AND LOCATION  in case geekhack goes down again !!!

Also get the number from your carpool person !!!

[Halverson]

I was ready, GH up or not! Hyde, you want my phone # just in case? Just ask in the mass pm if so and I'll reply with it.

[Hyde]

Cool okay I'll send out the mass pm tonight when I get home.

Look a bit suspicious if I'm like typing an essay at work.

The Matias dudes are really nice people.

[retainerbox]

Long shot, but does anyone have 2 seats in their car for me and a friend from Waterloo, ON? My ride isn't able to grab me anymore.

If it makes it any more appealing, I'm a girl, woooo.

Thanks!

I can provide a ride there for you and your friend from Waterloo on Sat morning, but I will be heading back to my place in Ajax for the rest of the weekend, so I wouldn't be able to drive you back.

Also, I have to pick up Frosty from Don Mills on the way as well, so there'll be 4 folks in the car at some point.

If that works, shoot me a PM.

But you don't mention if your friend is a girl, -1 points!

Hope you folks can find a way over! Take the ride in and figure out how to get back after.

[FrostyToast]

I think I'm ready for the meet.

I might be bringing more boards than the sheet says...

[ttzhou]

I might be bringing more boards than the sheet says...

If that's all your boards, it'll fit fine. What are the dimensions of that bag though?

[Dreamre]

If it's okay, can I bring a family friend too? Thanks!

[dfj]

bah, 25 lbs, barely 2 boards.

:}

[CPTBadAss]

Dfj is gonna bring 2 boards. One one will be 25 lbs )

[Noko]

Frosty is going to leave with a new custom wrist rest too!
I'll bring it in a box with bubble wrap though, make sure it doesn't get mangled in that there bag.

[FrostyToast]

I'll have another backpack on me as well for the wrist rest. It should probably be fine to carry in my seat if I keep it on my lap or at my feet.
That rest would honestly be more valuable than any of the boards I have.
I literally can't fit anything else in there either...
I'm not using the word "literally" in that new-age teenage dip**** sense either.
The bag is pretty much a rectangular crate and just as solid as one with how much I stuffed the thing.

I'll get dimensions in the morning for you.

It should fit. It looks smaller than my gym bag and that takes up maybe a third of my trunk space... But I wouldn't take that as license to bring another similarly sized bag.  )

[Hyde]

Yeahhhhhh 2 more days ~~~~  Almost there !!!

Hopefully everyone is getting ready for it. 

[Sifo]
