If there is going to be a Mock Meet the second weekend in August, now would be a good for everyone to start making plans... and reservations... because everyone wants to be at the same hotel, right? Good thing is, it'll definitely be cheaper than NYC for lodging! So... who's definitely in?

Edit: Changed subject to attract more attention and changed from first to second weekend in August.

If someone can give Re and I a ride, I'm sure we'll go (pending we don't have to work or somethin). Should be dirt cheap if we're all pitching in for one hotel room.

Fuck. I can't go the first weekend of August (2nd and 3rd). I'm going to be on vacation with my family. :(

I could probably do the second weekend though.

That, and the whole not being invited thing, too. Yeah.

Let me know if you guys are planning to hang out in Salem, which I would suggest any of you to do so. I could show you around.

Carnivore

I'm afraid Max Burbank already has the position of Salem guide.

So... how many people are going to need a hotel room? CB and I will probably stay there too, even though we only live 25 minutes away. We're just lazy.

Mockery
Jun 28th, 2003, 02:21 PM
If we can't stay with Jeff Shyu then yeah we'd need a hotel room. Who knows, it might be more fun to have everybody pile into one hotel room anyway. ;)

edit: keep in mind it's not definite we can go yet.

Geggy
Jun 28th, 2003, 02:35 PM
I guess Burbank would be a better person for the job as a tour guide but I will fill in on what he's missed out (which is most unlikely cuz everything's nearby), afterall he's not the one who's lived here his whole life. lol

I got to get my camera ready so I can take a picture of Proto when he walks into the comic book store. Two floors of comics...oh, my!

I've been getting a bad feeling about this Mock Meet for a while now, which is why I've been trying to drum up some enthusiasm. I'm going to start calling people. If I can't get the majority of the following people to come... I'm thinking this won't even be worth doing.

Any others would be a bonus. As for transportation, there are enough of us with cars that anybody who flies in will be picked up no problem.

I'm just messing with you, dude. I'd be glad to have you show us around Salem.

I've already gotten August 8-11 off work, so I'm good to go for at least four days. I might be able to take more if necessary, so I WILL be there.

I'm still trying to decide if it would be better for me to drive or go by train.

I'd go if anyone would like to pay for my ticket and give me a place to stay, I'd be happy to go.

I already have a "big birthday present" coming, so I don't really want to burden my parents to finance a trip to Boston, and I need to save all the money I have, since I don't have much right now.

Maybe I'll have some free passes to see American Wedding? :(

Really? I thought I read something about Japan having the world's fastest coaster... or maybe that one hasn't been built yet? I dunno. Either way, Kings Dominion just has soooo much stuff nowadays... I really gotta go back there sometime. I wouldn't drive all the way to Cedar Point for just one coaster when I can drive a half hour to KD.

I actually want to drive all the way to the West Coast (preferably with a group of people) for a mock meet of sorts. Of course, I would be stopping by all sorts of odd tourist attractions on the way (ie: the biggest ball of twine in minessota, etc.) I think it would be a lot of fun, and of course I'd be documenting the whole thing for a big piece on the site.

Carni...we can still have the Mock Meet in Boston, in August. The only person I've seen bow out so far is Roger. And he could always get a ride up with me (well, probably, I might take a train).

Rog, King's Dominion was great, they've got a lot of new rides that I hadn't been on before, some awesome new coasters, and this drop zone thing where you fall from like 305 feet up in the air.

And I would LOVE to drive out to the west coast with a group some time...I just need time to prepare, to gather enough money and arrange to get plenty of time off of work for it. Maybe next summer?

I like the Idea of all of us Camping somewhere in the Center of the USof A.... Or wreaking havok in some mid-western town none of us live in... Camping would be cheaper then hotel rooms... Camping in someones really large backyard, If we start planning A International Mock fest now, we could do it by next spring, & we wouldn't have any excusses... "but I'm in Canada" you we're informed! "I'm only 16..." Run away from home! " I don't have any money!" It would be next spring, I'm sure you can save some money...
Dude, I'll bring my dice, & DM screen if you bring the Mt. Dew....
We all live with in a few hours of another Mocker... Carpool, & record images... Seval diffrent travel logs buy diffrent groups... It would KICK ASS!!!
I would like to see the board compleatly dead for a week or so because most of us are all together.
Yeah, we all fight, & give each other shit on the board, but shit, people I've given shit to in the past I do think are cool because similar likes, so if your fear is no one will like you... don't worry. & if we don't like you we'll throw you into a lake.
I-Mockery Camping trip 2004!!!
It would kick ass!
Way better then a scouts trip, better then a fishing trip, better then going to one of those weekend SCA things!!!
Proto, tell the people this would be a good thing...
Everyone get jobs, & start saving money!!!
I want to drink with Mockers by next summer...
