lol I think the last time we meet up was in 2012?  Refer to:  https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=38206.0

I've been meaning to organize something but I've been busy for a while then it just trailed off.

But I figure we should seriously look into it this time.

We need everyone to tell me a few things.

1.  Time, do you prefer spring or summer?  (Basically pick a time within the next 5 months)

2.  Where to meet?  I haven't contact Matias yet so I don't know if they can give us another tour, but even so would you guys prefer another tour or just do our own thing?

I know generally the limitation with Matias is that they only open weekdays, but if we do our own thing then we can pick weekends which might be better for some.

Anyway leave us a comment and let me know what you think !

 

[Halverson]

I'm busy all of April but after that i'd drive up for a meet up.

[Sifo]

idk I'll come let me know if you want help with anything. 0 ideas to contribute thus far

[trigun0x2]

PC Cafe/Bar?

Too busy girlsharking? 

But yeah it's ok we can aim for May/June or something.

We need you to find another g/f that can make geekhack cupcake lol jk.

PC Cafe/Bar?

Hmmmm I find those places kind of noisy, if we can rent a private meeting/party room that would be nice.

I'll look into those.  But that's if we don't go with the Matias route. 

[retainerbox]

Interested in coming, also with no ideas.

[poxeclipse]

Put me on the list.

[FrostyToast]

Totally in for this.
If we do this during the summer once Zeal makes his reveal, I can bring a sample prototype of what he has...
No idea about possible meet up areas.

[Noko]

Hey we can hang out at my workshop   10 min walk from Dundas West.

[Halverson]

Does it smell of fresh leather?

[Sifo]

dibs on a rest?

[Hyde]

Hey we can hang out at my workshop   10 min walk from Dundas West.

Does it smell of fresh leather?

lol that just means we'll all spend more money.

But I like his plan. 

Things are falling into place faster than I thought LOL.

Halverson what's the earliest you can make your appearance?

Pretty much the end of April after the 25. A little bit later would be better. If it needs to happen sooner than later though, don't try to make it work just for me.

Yeah no worries we'll probably aim for mid May then, can't party without pope Halverson. 

And it's not like we'll die if we can't have keyboard party earlier.... I think.... maybe.... LOL

This will give everyone a chance to buy more keyboards before then.

Hey we can hang out at my workshop   10 min walk from Dundas West.

Also Noko are you sure you're ok about us using your space?  Because if you are that would be awesome!

I can bring food to feed everyone. 

[FrostyToast]

I am out on the weekend of may 9th so please don't have anything going on there.
Other than that I should be good.

[Hyde]

Yeah that's cool no worries. 

So maybe weekend of May 16th or 23rd?  How does that sound for everyone?

[CPTBadAss]

Sounds bad. How can I be in Chicago and Toronto at the same time??

I'd *love* to come visit to see Noko's shop or Matias .

Yeah, May is probably a bad month since we have keycon in Chicago in the middle of it. Might be a bit much to have two meet ups consecutively.

[CPTBadAss]

I mean if it's in a different country I don't see why it would matter lol. I don't think there's many people who are planning on flying out to TO from the states or vice versa. I was just complaining 'cause I'm selfish and I want to go to both.

U be worth, bb
 
We will plan the date just for you.

[slip84]

OMG, I live here now. I wanna come!

EDIT: I would love if it was done on a weekend, otherwise I cannot attend. Period. My job is insane.

Heh as long as it's not like over 15 people, I think that's where it would start to be pretty crowded.  I've got plenty of tables.  I can open it up on the weekend too cause I makes the rules

Can we all get white girl wasted? :O

[CPTBadAss]

Can we all get white girl wasted? :O

Only if we listen to that really catchy Lil' Jon song on repeat.

[platypus]

my body is ready

[user 18]

I'll plan to attend.

[dfj]

Yup - weekends which are not this one - and particularly locations near dundas west (let me guess - one of the studios down sterling. )
  If it takes long enough, there might even be fresh toys to show off re: F controller stuff.

looking forward.

We listen to Katamari OST now while playing board games!

LOL ok initially I didn't expect people to actually go to both, cuz like you said it's 2 different countries.

BUT just in case then maybe I'll push it back to June.

Heh as long as it's not like over 15 people, I think that's where it would start to be pretty crowded.  I've got plenty of tables.  I can open it up on the weekend too cause I makes the rules 

lol ok maybe I should start putting down names to see how many we have.

lol no worries we gonna push it to June now.  Unless someone else can't do June.... lol we'll see haha.

[Hyde]

lol so June good for everyone?  Also CPTBadAss if it's in June then can you come?

Someone track down tsangan to see if he can make it ontime this time haha.  (Last time he had work)


EDIT:  Ops forgot I made the last post too.

[FrostyToast]

June sounds great for me!

[ttzhou]

is this meetup open to only keyboard pros? i'm fairly new to the game and haven't even started modding yet, but it'd be cool to chill with some fellow enthusiasts and maybe learn a few tricks to get me started on modding?

Open to all!

Open to all!

great! i'd be down if it gets set on a saturday sometime in June.

[Dreamre]

I'll be down + 1 (the gf)!

[user 18]

June should be fine for me, depending on the exact date.

[Sifo]

kk I comes

[CPTBadAss]

lol so June good for everyone?  Also CPTBadAss if it's in June then can you come?

I'll be in the Great White North but in MTL in June. I can't make it to TO as well.

Nah, keyboard meetups are always open to everyone. Has been that way since I joined GH

[retainerbox]

Depends on which weekend in June, I have plans for New York at some point.

[Halverson]

It's inevitable that some people won't make the chosen weekend. May as well pick a few dates then see which one is best for the majority. And screw that cptbadass guy, I know him, he's always busy!

[FrostyToast]

I vote for the weekend of June 20.
Should give us plenty of time for people to book days off and have someone prepare a meeting place.

[Hyde]

LOL ok how about this, everyone tell me when you're available and I'll work something out.

This way I don't have to keep guessing. 

[FrostyToast]

I am fine any time after April as long as I get 2 weeks of notice.

[elton5354]

Not sure if I'm available yet. New job and all. I'll have to wait and see closer to the date of the meet

I'll ask if truecustom wants to come as well

[FrostyToast]

Should we start a form to fill out for availability?
It would be a bit of a mess, but sifting through a messy pile of garbage in a form is better than trying to find it scattered throughout the thread.

[CPTBadAss]

And screw that cptbadass guy, I know him, he's always busy!

Seriously please don't schedule this around me. I'm just being selfish. :|

It's 99% going to be on a Saturday though.  Would that still be an issue?

Seriously please don't schedule this around me. I'm just being selfish. :|

lol it's ok we'll see how this works out in the end, everything's still in the open so far. 

[slip84]

Put me down as a solid "probably, so long as I'm not sent out of the country."

Wheee!
