The last time we had a meet-up event was basically a decade ago. It was good. Pretty sure I still owe a round on that one, so we really do need to go again.
What we need is to agree a suitable home game, pick a walking-distance venue (Richmond Club Hotel on Swan Street worked well last time) for a few quiet ones before the game before forming a Bigfooty Melbourne board flank to march towards the G, when we all shake hands and disappear out of each others lives for another decade. It’s great - got us a flag last time so I reckon we go again.
Of the meet-up veterans I’m sure Theseventhhamster Simon_Says will be right behind this. Keen to discover whether Hampster is still in the process of losing a fingernail while high on prescription drugs.
I know Crimson Azure will consider it, so Im already counting that as an “in” vote.
Actually I reckon there are heaps of brave souls who will put themselves through some initial socially awkward moments to reap the benefits here. I had some trepidation all those years ago, but it wasn’t especially awkward compared to what I had built up in my head.
Post here if you’re interested - being out-of-town no barrier, we could bounce around dates when Scythe might be in the Melbourne area if needed, or find out whether A11dAtP0w3R has a space in the diary to drive up from Lorne. We can sus something out that works.
Anyway please post any interest (vague interest will do) or ideas and I’ll get to work with something-or-other
