Re: Coming To America ...
OK, I'm going to work on New Orleans, or Vegas. New Orleans is my preference because I have to be back in Vegas in December for the NFR. I'll let you know.
Re: Coming To America ...
/me slurps and loves all over LesBob in anticipation of partying in either New Orleans or Vegas
Re: Coming To America ...
Damn it, Les. Why not KC, man?
Re: Coming To America ...
Just thought now might be a good time to let everyone know that all of our accommodation and airfares have been booked and paid for so there is no turning back now.
Our itinerary is listed on page one of this thread and if you are looking to catch up with us anywhere, other than KC, now would be a good time to let us know. What we get up to in the various places we visit is not set in concrete really so we are still open to a bit of "Hey come and meet us at blah pub" (where blah represents the name of a pub in any of the places we are actually visiting.) Gob and I do not plan on hiring a car or anything while we are there so we will be mostly at the mercy of public transport. Let us know by pmail in game if you want to catch up anywhere and we'll see what we can do about making it happen.
It's now only 2 months and 1 week until we will be in the country
Just FYI.

That, or we'll be detained by airport security and having our "cavities" searched. I can almost *hear* the snap of the rubber glove. Shudder.

Re: Coming To America ...
What time and date will you be at the airport? and please supply me with a description of what you will be wearing and what gate you'll be at... for no reason. Especially not for the reason of me calling false accusations in to security.....
Re: Coming To America ...
It looks like the wife and I are gonna make plans to visit family in Chicago around the time you're expected to be there. So long as her cousin in Texas doesn't show up with her newborn, we'll get a mini-con arranged. Or a mini-mini-con. Or we'll just meet up and have some beers.

Re: Coming To America ...
So, it occurs to me that people may well be wanting to catch up with us while we're over there, although I can't for the life of me figure out why. Whatever the reason, we'd love to catch up with any Paracites who live near or can travel to any of the locations we'll be at.
There is an official meetup being planned in Missouri for the first weekend in October (expect a post from Grokly on this very soon if he hasn't already done it) but outside of that, we're very open to suggestions for one on one, or group, meetups anywhere we'll be if anyone wants to arrange it.
Bear in mind that we won't have access to any transport other than cabs (expensive) and public transport, so we can't really travel outside of the cities listed.
If you want to arrange something, just contact us in-game to set something up.

Re: Coming To America ...
Sweet! Now we just have to figure out how to get you the last 60 miles or so, from the airport to the mysterious location of the actual meetup.
For anyone else planning to come, it may be necessary to make some special arrangements if multiple people are flying into KCI over those couple of days. Best thing to do is to let either myself or Grokly know as soon as possible, and we'll see what we can come up with.

Re: Coming To America ...
Well, we're leaving home at 6.30 tomorrow morning... For those who've said they want to catch up, we'll see you there! For those who haven't... meh, we love you anyway.
Just in case we have anything interesting to say/show, we've set up a blog, which you can see at http://ellandgobb.blogspot.com. There's nothing much there right now (we haven't left yet) but who knows? It might be worth keeping an eye on.
If we don't make it back... Philosoraptor is in charge of coding the rest of the game. Good luck with that

I've got it all taken care of, man. Now, what does 'PHP' stand for again?

Re: Coming To America ...
No wonder Gobb seems to like coding so much...
Re: Coming To America ...
Just in case any of you were wondering and you have seen us in chat yet I thought I would just pop a message here to let you know that we arrived in New York last night all safe and sound.
Good to be here and looking forward to catching up with as many of you as we can along the way.
