LuketheXjesse Posted September 6, 2009 Share Posted September 6, 2009 Not that I mind that much or anything, but this this IT? I don't see a whole lot of people caring about this meetup. I'm entirely cool with just a few people coming, it's just I'm surprised that there isn't MORE people interested. Unless they're just pming Taucer. Maybe I'm getting a bit impatient. But yeah, your neighbors can get over it. I wanna ROCK THE HELL OUT (if you got any brutal amps that is). I'd totally LOVE to do a metal jam to or this. I have the odd feeling none of you guys really wanna ROCK though, so I'm fine with Chrono Cross acoustic stuff all day Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LuckyXIII Posted September 6, 2009 Share Posted September 6, 2009 Also, LuckyXIII, your idea of win in a meal is astonishingly similar to mine. Well, that's the kind of food my friends and I generally ingested at RPG sessions and while I don't want to enforce a nerd stereotype, we would all be hanging out b/c of our love of video games - even moreso: video game music. Alternately I'd be happy to bring some hummus and pita bread instead. As far as jamming, I have no instruments but am a percussionist at heart and - I just remembered - I have a set of harmonicas!

big giant circles Posted September 6, 2009 Share Posted September 6, 2009 I ain't comming if I can't jam. And don't worry about the neighbors GT, we'll invite them over...I'll bring egg shakers for them to play with. Ahaha, he beat me to it! Yeah dude, seriously, just tell 'em about it before hand and invite them over. If they're too lame to realize "Hey, he's having a house-warming party, and there's going to be lots of out-of-state friends coming over, and most of them are musical" and they aren't down with it then screw them. They sound like the kind of people I wouldn't respect enough to worry whether they like me or not. Seriously though, I don't see us getting that loud/rowdy, and they'd have to be the utmost of d-bags to not be ok with us jamming at a welcome party on a weekend. Also, I've got a cabasa!

Geoffrey Taucer Posted September 7, 2009 Author Share Posted September 7, 2009 So I'm debating whether I want to have two housewarming parties (ie one for my coworkers/other friends in the area and one for my OCR friends) or one (ie both put together). What do you guys think? It's a pretty small townhouse, so I don't know how big a party I could realistically host. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harmony Posted September 7, 2009 Share Posted September 7, 2009 If you like throwing parties, that sounds like a reasonable plan to me. I had to not invite some friends just because I didn't want to have TOO many people show up. That sucked, but a second party would have fixed that. It's gonna be more expensive on your part though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LuketheXjesse Posted September 7, 2009 Share Posted September 7, 2009 I could deal, but I'd feel a bit awkward around your co-workers. Maybe I'm just being paranoid though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoffrey Taucer Posted September 7, 2009 Author Share Posted September 7, 2009 On the other hand, inviting my coworkers would certainly fix the issues with the male to female ratio inherent at any OCR gathering.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LuketheXjesse Posted September 7, 2009 Share Posted September 7, 2009 As in your co-workers are females? ... do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
big giant circles Posted September 8, 2009 Share Posted September 8, 2009 "COWORKERS" O-HO, sir. Indeed, I see what you did there. *WINK WINK* No but seriously, if there are going to be a bunch of gymnasts there, I expect to see some live, improv tumbling to our inevitable jamtasticness.

Geoffrey Taucer Posted September 8, 2009 Author Share Posted September 8, 2009 No but seriously, if there are going to be a bunch of gymnasts there, I expect to see some live, improv tumbling to our inevitable jamtasticness. Unfortunately, that's unlikely to happen, as most of the other coaches who can still do anything are underage and therefore will not be invited. Actually, I think I'm leaning towards having two separate parties Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Level 99 Posted September 8, 2009 Share Posted September 8, 2009 Actually, I think I'm leaning towards having two separate parties Why, are you afraid we'll scare them away with our vast video game music knowledge and sheer maddening jamma-sauce skills? Well, you may be on to something there, then... I could care less, as I'm down with either seeing familiar faces and meeting a few new people from the OCR scene, or hanging out with all plus coworkers. If I were in your position, however, I'd probably throw two separate parties as well. We're eagerly awaiting a tentative date, good sir!

Salluz Posted September 16, 2009 Share Posted September 16, 2009 I will be moving in to my new home later this month, and I would love to have a housewarming party OCR-style. If I were to hold a meetup at my place in southern Raleigh in late sept/early oct, how many people would be interested in comming? Sure, if I miss the other. EDIT: for those thinking about bringing gifts:Don't. Bring food instead. Mmkay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geoffrey Taucer Posted September 18, 2009 Author Share Posted September 18, 2009 sleeping arrangements The floor's carpeted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xenon Odyssey Posted September 18, 2009 Share Posted September 18, 2009 The floor's carpeted. But does the carpet match the drapes? get your heads out of the gutter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WindStrike Posted September 18, 2009 Share Posted September 18, 2009 Woah woah woah, seriously? Dude, I frigin' live here. Heck yeah I'd come... assuming it doesn't happen to interfere with a marching band event or practice. Then that'd suck for me. Sundays are nice for me personally, with the exception of October 4th... of course, it's not like I call the date of this or anything, just saying.

LuketheXjesse Posted September 23, 2009 Share Posted September 23, 2009 Don't make the meetup on the weekend of october 2-3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Level 99 Posted September 23, 2009 Share Posted September 23, 2009 And also...don't make it Columbus-day weekend. I'm on-call that weekend and have to stay in town, and on top of that I'm having Avaris come down for the weekend. Be prepared for drunk forum-and-IRC antics and some crazy pictures...maybe. October is Taucer-fest month. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoffrey Taucer Posted September 24, 2009 Author Share Posted September 24, 2009 Ok, I'm gonna finish moving this sunday, and I think I can safely pick a date at this point. I'm inclined to go with October 17th and 18th. UPDATING FIRST POST! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LuketheXjesse Posted September 24, 2009 Share Posted September 24, 2009 I will be sure to ask off work. Er...17th AND 18th...? You guys aren't spending the night, are you? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoffrey Taucer Posted September 24, 2009 Author Share Posted September 24, 2009 It'll run saturday night through sunday. You can spend the night, but you don't have to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LuketheXjesse Posted September 24, 2009 Share Posted September 24, 2009 So not Saturday in the daytime? At all? Then I won't have a lot of time to hang out... Spending the night would be AWESOME, but I'm pushing it just going to this thing as is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WindStrike Posted September 24, 2009 Share Posted September 24, 2009 Dangit, I'll be spending 17th-18th for Bands of America... blargh. Well, do whatever is most convenient for ya... maybe I'll be able to make a different meetup or something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
