Just gotta find a place and convince all the guys in the NYC area to drive to. My place is just shy of 4 hours from NYC.
The issue is that most of the western GH'ers are concentrated in California, so it's like a meetup from one city, with a few people flying in and such. Keycon chicago had most of the people in chicago of course, but with a surprising number also within driving distance. I'm not sure if there's a place on the east side of the US that is like that (with a good number of people can drive) NYC could work, but parking WILL be an issue.

I'd like to start getting an idea of how many people we will get. So just say if you're in and which cities you could make it to if not all

Also keep in mind not everyone may have their passports. Getting into Canada requires a passport now as far as I know. Used to just need that "enhanced license".Yeah, that could also be a problem, although it shouldn't be to hard to get one, right?

I don't know everyone's personal situations but I know friends who don't have their passports since they don't travel and don't have the budget to travel internationally. I just thought I'd point this out.

It's not too hard, the biggest hurdle is time in my experience. It doesn't cost that much, especially considering that you're already traveling to get there, most likely.
A new passport is about $140 (http://travel.state.gov/content/passports/english/passports/information/costs.html). Renewal is about $110. The waiting time is 4-6 weeks.
If you just want to go to Canada, you can get the Passport Card for much cheaper. Also, holy crap, they are expensive now! I paid $35 for my passport... :confused:
Also, the poll has been updated. I switched the previous 'Other' to 'Montreal', to preserve those votes, and added a fresh 'Other' that has zero votes. I cannot manually override the votes without setting everything back to zero. As such, keep in mind that one of the 'Montreal' votes is actually for a different location.

A lot of my jobs use to be in DC, Northern Virginia.........anybody that is from the area knows this is bank
I don't know how many people are coming from MD, DC and then south of Virginia, but maybe Jersey or Philly could be a better option and closer to those who are to the north? We're only talking about 2 hours from DC. It doesn't have to be right in the city, but could be a burb?
I will be there............ I am in a wheelchair, so handicap accessibility would be nice :cool:

Well, I don't know how many are actually coming from VA and DC but I know there are plenty from NOVA, and some from the south, which would probably be a train ride for somewhere like Philly or NYC. And DC is so expensive because everyone around there has quite a bit of money to spend :p

edit: Philly really is sounding like our best bet right now.
Well I'm more comfortable with the people/area of philly and its surrounding burbs than I am DC/NYC. I can't say that accounts for everyone. The part I love about at least being around Philly is the trains are fantastic. We can have a meetup in a less crowded area on the main-line, take a train into the city for any reason we want, all for $10 or less.

I would swear by these trains being safe and friendly. I used to commute from Spring City PA to Paoli and take the train into Philadelphia for classes 5 days a week, and it was easily one of my favorite times of the day.

Philly being west of those areas is a bit?
Also your best bet if you're gonna do NY/NYC is actually some suburb part of NY like either Long Island or Westchester.
NJ Suburb would be a good choice too. Course the downside is you'd need to drive or setup some sort of carpooling service.
I do like to also mention there's been like an IC thread about a NYC Meetup that never got done lol. Location and space is the main issue. If someone's willing to open up their house to a bunch of strangers, that's prob the best bet. Anything else would be questionable to lock up a venue.

The entire east coast slopes west until you get down to VA... for those VA and south Philadelphia would be north/north-east.
I'm going to try and get a list together of places the meet could happen in/around Philadelphia. Personally I'd love to be just outside of philly because it's easier to get around and do things in those areas than it is in the city itself.

i meant in terms of middle, the northeast will be going more west than the coast.
if its outside philly there's the whole transportation issue for those who'll be going mass transit.

Philly is considered north east, so anything north of that would be a North East Keycon and us guys south of the Mason-Dixon line are out unless if flying. If the consensus turns out to be New York, etc. then maybe it would be wiser to do north east in spring of '15 and then go south in '16 in North or South Carolina, etc. and call it a South East Keycon?

If we're going KeyCon East it would be nice to keep it south enough (Philly) to attract those geographically at least to North Carolina. Still south NC you are talking about a 8-10 hour drive.Yeah, geographically philly seems like the best option right now

better to just go into northern virginia as it is right there and easier to get around should the consensus ever go to DC.
old town alexandria for example is right alongside DC, easy access with metro, buses, parking, hotels, plenty easy access for places to chow down.

LPR
I've gotta ask what this means. Google thinks it might be License Plate Registration, Laryngopharyngeal Reflux Disease, or (le) poisson rouge. I'm leaning more towards the third option at this point, as that's a location in NY instead of a disease. And I just now realized that I probably should have searched "LPR NYC" instead of "LPR". But I'm not perfect, so I've gotta work with what I've got.

My attendance at Keycon East depends how much time there is between the mid-west and east meetup.
IF
I have enough paychecks after Chicago
AND
there are no new keyboard customs created that suck my money
THEN
I can definitely think about a trip to the northeast. :thumb:
So Chicago for sure. But TBA about NE.

That being said, I think when we looked into spaces to hold meetups in general renting an hourly work space (http://www.nytimes.com/2013/02/19/business/hotels-carve-out-work-spaces-rented-hourly.html?pagewanted=all&_r=0), typically for meetings, might work for us. Also hotel convention rooms but they'll be expensive as all hell in Manhattan. I highly suggest that if this is going down in NYC, we do it in one of the quieter outer boroughs like Queens or the Bronx where it would be a bit easier.
But perhaps one of our NYC members has a better idea.

So if it's OK with everyone if we could just decide on Philly now that would certainly make planning easier
it was 2nd in the poll, I'm sure it's fine
unless anyone absolutely can't do it I think it's a fine choice

Another option is to just throw it at my rent's place which would be an hour west of Philadelphia.
On the playground was where I spent most of my days
Chillin' out maxin' relaxin' all cool
And all shootin some b-ball outside of the school
When a couple of guys who were up to no good
Started making trouble in my neighborhood
I got in one little fight and my mom got scared
She said 'You're movin' with your auntie and uncle in Bel Air'

With regards to cost, how much does the space usually cost for these type of gatherings? I see plenty of spaces that are $1000+ which seems ridiculous
A lot of cons have been held in spaces which were graciously made available to us through some sort of close personal connection. Regular spaces are expensive for the day or 2 days and have time limits.

Had to drive through there to ger to Connecticut. Was almost fine, ended up mising my exit because of the incredible number of different ones,drove over a median, pissed a guy off, was fun. Also, any ideas of spaces we go hold this?+1 Never been to NYC, but I have zero interest in trying to drive there. I want to live.
It's mainly Manhattan that's a ***** but even then it's not that bad. Just gotta be prepared to make really quick decisions.
wait why were you driving through manhattan to get to connecticut?
Do you enjoy paying extra tolls or something? lol

Brooklyn I bet. That's where TS lives.
BTW, if I went through CT, it'd be a little longer, but I wouldn't have to drive through manhattan. Still don't know the best way to do it.

going through manhattan to get to ct seems a bit ridiculous, and having to pay a lot of different tolls options. (holland/lincoln to get into manhattan, then free either brooklyn/manhattan/williamsburg/59th st. bridge, or Triborough Bridge toll route and then either throgs neck or whitestone toll bridges to get out of queens)
more than just taking i95 and going across the GWB.

I covered what I think I'm best qualified to give information on at Keycon West 2014.well, I think the resident alps hipster knows quite a bit more than the rest of us, even if it's not totally comprehensive :p

I can't promise anything, and it's actually pretty unlikely as it's in a really not so great section of the city and parking would literally be the closest thing to hell you can imagine, but I can see if my school has any space reserved for these sorts of things. I'm not even sure if they would be up for such a thing, but it couldn't hurt to inquire.

Check it out over here (http://www.philadelphiapenshow.com/). You think keyboards are bad for your wallet? Fountain pens are much worse. I had a really good time at the Ohio Pen Show and I was contemplating going to the Philly one but I'm worried about snow and ice messing with the drive/air travel.

Yeah, those are reasonable concerns, from everything I've read, all indications point to a very snowy/cold winter. Please do let me know if you do make the trip though, there's a lot to do here, and I would love to discover another hobby that hacks my wallet! :DPhilly Fountain Pen Show...I didn't even know this was a thing.

Can we finalize a date for this? If I need to get a flight I'd like to do so sooner than later.
A date and location would be wonderful.

Well, since it seems like middle of the month works pretty well for most, could we get a poll put up with options for the weekends of the 8th, 15th, and the 22nd of August?Can we finalize a date for this? If I need to get a flight I'd like to do so sooner than later.

You can select multiple dates, so pick all weekends that you're able to make it. :)
Post by: hwood34 on Tue, 19 May 2015, 11:25:48
That seems like a good idea. Pick 3-4 weekends, put up a poll to vote on a date, then find a place to put us up. Let me know if you need help booking a place hwood34. I've got someone who can help out.Yeah, I don't really have any ideas so I'm open to anything

Well we could always try and get another hotel space but it might be pricey. I think we might have better luck looking in one of the outer boroughs, Long Island, or New Jersey. Not 100% sure though. There are various websites that allow people to rent meeting spaces by the hour/day (One (http://www.evenues.com/Meeting-Spaces/new%20york/New%20York), Two (https://liquidspace.com/as/reserve/meeting-rooms/new-york?gclid=Cj0KEQjwvuuqBRDG95yR6tmfg9oBEiQAjE3RQMEMSKvIoCO5rlUxShhnhQCBT0uVm6XcAJnvPUsI4PMaAs9e8P8HAQ#%23q%3D%40latitude%3D40.7127837%24%40longitude%3D-74.0059413%24%40FeaturedAmount%3D0%24%40Campaign.Id%3D00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000%24%40IsFullTextSearch%3DFalse%24%40IsCurrentLocationSearch%3Dfalse%24%40SearchByANDCondition%3Dfalse%24%40VenueClassificationsString%3D%5B%5D%24%40WorkspaceCapacity%3D3%24%40SpaceTypes%3D1%24%40MinPrice%3D0%24%40MinSize%3D0%24%40ServerAmenities%3Dfalse%24%40Address%3DNew%20York%2C%20NY%24%40ReservationLengthMinutes%3D60%24%40mapLng%3D-74.00594130000002%24%40mapLat%3D40.712850246511216%24%40mapZoom%3D12%24%40trackMapCenter%3Dfalse%24%3B), Three (http://www.davincimeetingrooms.com/?gclid=Cj0KEQjwvuuqBRDG95yR6tmfg9oBEiQAjE3RQGD0qD_X6gZKckGfnYGNwgcRaGdJBzaAbYn-jVEkCq8aAtUI8P8HAQ)), but it might be easier to try and find a local NYC user who has access to a company office space. Perhaps eth0s?
Remember to keep in mind that anything in just Manhattan will be more expensive than the rest of NYC.
Also I could give my Alps presentation again or give a crash course presentation on CAD programs.

Why is the 22nd in the poll if you might veto that anyway? I thought the whole point of a poll was to find what worked best for everyone.
Post by: hwood34 on Thu, 21 May 2015, 16:06:44
Right now that date is kinda up in the air for me because of some abrupt changes. But if the amount of people that could only come on the 22nd is a decent amount higher than the other two, I'm sure I could find a way.**** just realized I may not be able to hit this up.

I think all you need is an american bank account..
Deposit $100,000 in any bank account, and i'm pretty sure they'll let you open any credit card you want.
If you Deposit $400,000, they approve your Visa..

Well maybe we could do it in Philly. That seems like more of a central point in between the main three states that people are coming from (NY, NJ, VA). PA is a pretty short ride by train from any of those places, a little longer driving but still pretty doable. It might be a little harder for really northern people or from NC and south though.
I'm in NC and could probably swing Philly NP.

Yep, can't wait to go! First visit to NYC for both me and Katz, so if any of you have suggestions on cool places to visit just let us know. (Besides the obvious landmarks haha)

there are tons of places to visit here in nyc. Big scene for drinking if thats what ur in to....lots of breweries and craft brew bars. There is a fun bar to go to called barcade if thats ur thing, lots of old 80s style arcades at a quarter a play. Lots of music venues too.

If all else fails and attendance is low y'all can crash at Binge-haus on the floor or grab a hotel nearby. I live... 15 min away from the Harrisburg airport. NYC doesn't make keycaps :cool:
I'm still waiting for Keycon East at Binge-haus. :-/

I'm definitely in. Have absolutely nothing planned that weekend and I'd love to meet you wonderful people :). So pencil me down for one.
Re: Venue. Are you still looking hwood? And what kind of venue are we looking for? I go to a number of meetups, most of the ones in Manhattan are at tech companies though. Not sure if we would want to have it there, or if they would let us. If we're willing to go to Brooklyn or Queens and are looking for a more relaxed scene with drinks, I know of two wonderful bars with large, dedicated upstairs rooms that they rent out for events. No idea if they would be booked, but the one in BK gives the space out for $50 for an entire day for a local JavaScript meetup, so it's pretty affordable. I also know the meetup organizers, so figuring out how to contact about renting the place shouldn't be an issue. I'll read this whole thread tomorrow and catch up and then find some other suggestions, but PM me if any of those things sound nice hwood.

If someone could drive me home afterwards that'd be great. Taking the subway from queens is not exactly fun.
I'll pay for gas, it's about 45-60 minutes away. You can come in and hang out if you want, noone will be home.
If not, that's fine. I'm not picky.

Got to meet some awesome, nice people; see actual Clacks and KBK/KWK's in person; see a dope 456 case, SoWaRe, a KMAC, GMK Red Alert, Filco Camo, the list goes on; and dat Kishsaver... omg, greatest thing I've ever typed on, I really ****ing need one now. We also talked general keyboard facts, drama, etc. All in all: 10/10, excellent day, would do again (despite taking Ubers to get to and fro).
Extra props to Dodgy and Katzen for giving me some cool new caps (pics tomorrow, like 'Stache)!
We should definitely try to do this again sometime. Bare minimum, Keycon East '16 needs to happen.

It was great having Katzen and Dodgy in the place; they both make some pretty rad keycaps. I'm going to have my friend that I dragged along with to make an account and post some pics. He has two of Dodgy's caps on his Logitech board at home, and they look awesome. Light up brainz FTW!
Definitely need to have a Keycon East '16, bare minimum.
We should probably start organizing that now :cool:
I was stoked to show Sniping some legendary good eats in NJ. We hit up White Mana right before we dropped him off at the train station. I haven't had White Mana in yeeeeeeeears, and it's still so good. If anyone rides through northern NJ close to NYC, hit up White Mana in Jersey City, or White Manna in Hackensack. Legendary eats.

This looks like it was fun! I'm sad I missed it. I've been thinking about the possibility of organizing a meet up sometime this winter in the Northeast though, and this only makes me more excited to do so! Is this something people would be interested in? I was thinking perhaps Boston as a possible location, but Montreal also wouldn't be out of the question.Boston would be cool, I'd really like to visit sometime. Winter might be a bit crazy though :p

Destination is Sanibel, for a family reunion. :) I'm currently planning to drive and would be taking a route that makes sense from WI to there. :D And I'm more than willing (hoping, in fact ;) ) to go out of the way on the way back to meet some GHers.

My gf would have been with me.
At least one female would have been there.
Something came up at the last minute.
It's a sad excuse.
But, I really wanted to meet fellow keyboard enthusiasts who understand the love of keyboards. It's usually hard to explain my keyboards to the layman.
