WesPip Posted October 31, 2006 Posted October 31, 2006 ...Look, I can dream. Anyone in Winnipeg or within decent travelling distance interested in participating in a meetup? Aurora used to live here. That's gotta count for something. Obviously, date's still wide-open. If you're at ALL interested, suggest any date you want. THE COMMITTEE will consider it. And any 'peggers here, for the record, I'm in St James. Doesn't really affect anything though. Quote
ILLiterate Posted November 1, 2006 Posted November 1, 2006 Great album, here's hoping you get people Quote
kamoh Posted November 1, 2006 Posted November 1, 2006 hahahaa it's the Peg. damathacus is in winnipeg. Here's hoping you get only two months of under -40 weather. Quote
Flik Posted November 1, 2006 Posted November 1, 2006 Winnipeg? What? No. FARGO. Silly Winnipegonian... You know Flik's place is the best for hanging out, even though you've never been here. Quote
WesPip Posted November 1, 2006 Author Posted November 1, 2006 A MAN CAN DREAM, DAMMIT. You don't know what'll happen til you put it out there, I guess. Quote
siven7 Posted November 12, 2006 Posted November 12, 2006 I would totally be in for an OCR meetup in Winnipeg. I'm living in St. Norbert (rockin' the nob!), so something should get setup - I work for Dragonfly Games in the city too, so we could talk industry stuff too! That'd be awesome! Quote
WesPip Posted November 13, 2006 Author Posted November 13, 2006 AND INTEREST GROWS SLIGHTLY. It's a very gradual process, it seems. Quote
siven7 Posted November 16, 2006 Posted November 16, 2006 WesPip - I sent you an email, did you get it? pm me if you want to try and get this together! Quote
Putzy Posted November 16, 2006 Posted November 16, 2006 Don't really post here, just come for the music but saw Winnipeg on the front page and decided to post in this thread. I also live in St. James. Quote
siven7 Posted November 16, 2006 Posted November 16, 2006 All these Winnipeg people on this thread... right on Have you posted any remixes lately? Quote
mausmas Posted November 16, 2006 Posted November 16, 2006 Guys GUYS let's do this! Club Desire! I'll see you there tommorow nite. Quote
WesPip Posted November 16, 2006 Author Posted November 16, 2006 Guys GUYS let's do this! Club Desire! I'll see you there tommorow nite. Clubs are gay. Especially that one. Quote
mausmas Posted November 16, 2006 Posted November 16, 2006 Clubs are gay. Especially that one. Yeah I wasn't being serious. I'm thinking the library. Quote
WesPip Posted November 18, 2006 Author Posted November 18, 2006 Clubs are gay. Especially that one. Yeah I wasn't being serious. I'm thinking the library. LIBRARIES ARE FOR NERDS. *erhem* Shame that Magic Land [next to the U of W] isn't open anymore. That would've been damn-near ideal. Quote

LIBRARIES ARE FOR NERDS. *erhem* Shame that Magic Land [next to the U of W] isn't open anymore. That would've been damn-near ideal. That wouldn't exactly be the safest area to be anyhow. Eh, it's right next to the university, so as long as it was during the day, it'd be fine. But it's all moot, since it's closed anyways. And Polo Park hasn't even had that arcade for the past, like, 10 years. So...any suggestions, anyone? Quote
Rexmaster Posted December 11, 2006 Posted December 11, 2006 Alright, so I just made a new account since my old one got deleted. Not the end of the world. Anywho, I'm in the 'Peg, Fort Rouge area, UofM student. I've actually been in the business of running the "Winnipeg Smash ring", trying to get new people out for the Super Smash Bros Melee scene (since every other fighting game is pretty much already covered). So, Wespip, Aurora "used to" live here, eh? Is it just me... or is there something fishy about that? I've also got a few friends down at the UofM who're OCR-ers too, and much more musically-inclined than I! ~Rex Quote

I didn't wanna bump it more m'self for fear of beating a dead horse, but it seems there actually IS a bit of interest in it. As for Aurora, she apparently got a job with CBC in Toronto, so she moved there. *shrug* But yeah, so long as it's not HORRIBLY out of the way, I'm always up for some Smash [though considering how little I've played it in the past 2 years or so, I'd be HORRID compared to the days of olde]. So if you haven't already, mentioned to your other OCR'ers in the area about this thread. The more attention it gets, the more likely the meetup will happen and be successful. Quote
SenPi Posted December 12, 2006 Posted December 12, 2006 Wow! I never knew there were so many OCR people from winnipeg. I'm from winnipeg too! I live in the tyndall park area (if anybody knows where that is). yea... Quote
WesPip Posted December 13, 2006 Author Posted December 13, 2006 Noice. One of the reasons I started the thread. Anyways, I've been talking with a few of the members who've posted here, and it seems more and more likely that the U of M-ish area will be a likely meetup place. So, who's for and against this? Personally, it's a pain in the ass for me to get there, but I've a friend who goes to the U that I could easily stay with for a day, so it lessens the annoyance factor. For the record, For all of you who're 18+ [ie: pretty much everyone from what I've seen], I'd totally be willing to go to a bar with you guys post-meet-up. BAR, note. Not club. Clubs suck. Bars suck much less. Anyways, that was a side note. So, U of M-ish. Who's for and against? Quote
SenPi Posted December 13, 2006 Posted December 13, 2006 I'm totally in. I go to the U of M anyways. Actually anyplace would be good I dont really care about driving anywhere. Hopefully we can get a good amount of people to come, that would be awesome. Quote
A-RoN Posted December 13, 2006 Posted December 13, 2006 For the record, For all of you who're 18+ [ie: pretty much everyone from what I've seen], I'd totally be willing to go to a bar with you guys post-meet-up. BAR, note. Not club. Clubs suck. Bars suck much less.Anyways, that was a side note. So, U of M-ish. Who's for and against? Up for the U (easy to get to), not for the bar scene (hard to get out of before; now it's hard for me to get back in). I'll bring free CDs of my tunage as "tracts" for whoever shows up. St. Vital represent...as well as Christ. Quote
Yellow 13 Posted December 13, 2006 Posted December 13, 2006 Hmm it appears that Wespip's efforts aren't futile after all Quote
SenPi Posted December 13, 2006 Posted December 13, 2006 Oh which reminds me, if anybody wants to buy a copy of my debut album "Act 1" (http://www.djsbx.com/act1.html) for details. I'll make up a few and bring em Quote
Rexmaster Posted December 13, 2006 Posted December 13, 2006 Oh which reminds me, if anybody wants to buy a copy of my debut album "Act 1" (http://www.djsbx.com/act1.html) for details.I'll make up a few and bring em YOOOOOOOOOOU! PUT CONTACT INFO ON YOUR WEBSITE! I- REX, HAVE BEEN SEARCHING FOR A WAY TO SAY THAT IN FACT YOUR MIXES ARE RAD, AND THAT MY INITIAL WORDS WERE FAR TOO HARSH! Seriously you guys, don't know why he hasn't got like, 5 mixes up here. Anyways, so I don't yet know when UMGA or any of the other groups are meeting, if at all these holidays (if that's what you're aiming for), but we could always just meet whereever. Either IQ's or Degree's (3rd floor University Center) are neat places just to chill, etc. Note that UofM isn't the only place available, I'm sure. YES, I go there. NO, I don't like the bus ride (Fort Rouge) Good to see more activity here! ~Rex Also: for bars, The Kingshead is downtown, pretty central, and has EXCELLENT music sunday nights. a good bet. Quote
