Worth noting: we've finally, finally, finally got another Party Hard on our hands. Stand by for Operation Party Hard 2: Party Harder

Hope you can make it Jesse, if not, there'll probably be a fairly well turned out flash raid on the week before (and after...)

by **Aramis** » Fri Jul 18, 2008 6:18 pm UTC

GYAH!!! I may not be able to make it this month, I need to start saving up to go down to Cambridge. I'll let you all know nearer the time, but don't count me in just yet.

FUCK YES. This means I won't have to get up early the day after I get back from Malaysia. We've been getting up early so much already; I just sooooo want a lie-in the day I get back.

by **Aramis** » Sun Jul 27, 2008 1:14 am UTC

Disregard my previous post, I'll be there.

The home of cake travels with Bakemaster. I don't think he's ever been to Mancheseter England England. Stop bullshitting the populous with your LIES about cake.

by **LE4dGOLEM** » Mon Jul 28, 2008 6:25 pm UTC

There's so much cake there it doesn't even get finished with 50+ people there. Maybe not a home, but a frequent holiday destination, perhaps?

by **sleepygamer** » Tue Jul 29, 2008 10:22 am UTC

Oh guess what? I HAVE A VIDEO OF THE CANDLING AND CUTTING OF THE CAKE. WE CUT IT WITH A SPATULA.

Wow, candling is a word?

I will upload the video when I can be arsed.

So that's why you had a spatula. I was worried.

Well, a little less now, because at least there ever was a reason.

Wait.

You didn't notice the fucking cake AND a candle on the spatula? Blind, much?

Bump: One week away! Trilby won't be there unless the weather's bad, but strick (last seen in... april?) could be, with guitar, so I'll be arriving with.. probably three people unless it's raining. Sleepy, do you know your way to the bunker from the station now? Or will this week be one of endless map-studying?

by **Jesse** » Sat Aug 09, 2008 10:57 pm UTC

Sorry I can't be there guys. I will be too busy getting absolutely wankered for my 21st birthday. (We're starting at 11am and going on through til sometime Sunday afternoon). I hope you all have an awesome time though.

I am poor.

Sooo...

Sorry. Can't come. Been spending money on getting to band practice.

(And then getting drunk and eating deadly fucking pizzas.)

Sleepy, Jesse, you fail.

Spoiler:

by **Jesse** » Thu Aug 14, 2008 7:10 pm UTC

My day involves free lapdancers. I win.

by **LE4dGOLEM** » Thu Aug 14, 2008 7:40 pm UTC

All I'd need is a chair.

by **Jesse** » Thu Aug 14, 2008 10:25 pm UTC

Conclusive proof, April was right.

by **LE4dGOLEM** » Fri Aug 15, 2008 9:43 am UTC

That I can't help trying to 1-up, or at least equal you?

by **Jesse** » Fri Aug 15, 2008 10:52 pm UTC

That you are 'a gay' for me.

LOL at the "a gay".

Anyway... I might be able to make it. Jesse, I have your number... if I have the money in the morning, I'll give you a text/ring. I'm gonna try be in Manchester Piccadilly by about 10:25... we gonna meet on the balcony with the rest of the gang? Or by Burger King like before?

Tell me!

Either way, If I have the cash, I'll be there.

:(

I was on a pre-booked snowboarder instruction course, which (hopefully, the last day's tomorrow when I'll find out if I've passed...) will support me financially through university, to some degree. Also, I doubt my wonderfully overprotective (and controlling) parents would let me go down to Manchester... and I have no really good excuses to let me get out of the house for several days at a time. :/

by **sleepygamer** » Sun Aug 17, 2008 12:15 pm UTC

I have some pictures that Jesse and LE4d will treasure forever.

You need a password to get to the rest of your photobucket album, though.

That one about the love of pepsi

That other one, about the hate of pepsi

...wow, there's a vampire in the second one... how does one's complexion change so much between pictures?! The lighting's not too different, and the hood blocks roughly the same amount of light...

by **JoyDivided** » Mon Aug 18, 2008 1:16 pm UTC

Oh. Dear. God. I can't actually believe that I JUST discovered this discussion, especially as I live with 10 minutes of where you met up

How many people showed and what sort of merriment did I miss?

by **LE4dGOLEM** » Mon Aug 18, 2008 8:33 pm UTC

About 40 people were there all told, and 'twas basically arsing around, sometimes accompanied by, sometimes not to the music. Also handing out flyers and stickers and whatnot.

by **sleepygamer** » Mon Aug 18, 2008 8:52 pm UTC

And KFC. *Nodnod*

by **Jesse** » Mon Aug 18, 2008 10:05 pm UTC

Sleepy, you were wanred about this on Saturday. Don't you dare go changing your avatar back again!

by **JoyDivided** » Tue Aug 19, 2008 2:38 am UTC

damn. Is the September one happening? It's almost poetic that I discovered this less than 48 hours after it happened... super... Ah well, I'm sure I'll get over it... I've not introduced myself by the way... at all (which I know is like the ultimate sin). I'm Louise, I'm nineteen and I'm a law student/cocktail waitress/bar tender (seriously). I'm not really a gamer but I work nights over summer and in the early hours of the morning when I couldn't sleep and no one I knew was awake I discovered xkcd whilst scouring the internet for something half decent to entertain me. Web comics are like my secret identity because no one I know in the real world would have a clue what I was talking about if I brought them up...

I know I should have put that in the intro thread so I will if anyone decides to bitch at me...

by **Jesse** » Tue Aug 19, 2008 9:48 am UTC

We don't care so much about the Intro Thread here. And I make exceptions for people who live within visiting distance of me anyway.

I will be at the September one, me and LE4d will be buying things from Games Workshop.

by **thecommabandit** » Tue Aug 19, 2008 8:27 pm UTC

If sleepy goes to the next one, I'll try and be there. No offence meant to you guys, but I'm socially awkward and I'd prefer someone I already know to be there.

Anyone know what the theme for next month is?

by **LE4dGOLEM** » Tue Aug 19, 2008 8:53 pm UTC

For Manchester: "Up close and personal", an attempted innuendo based on "close" because a person by the name of close (to whom IRCfags attach much fail, and thus win) will be returning for the first time since... march. As to what that means on the ground, see global.
Globally: I dunno lol

by **Jesse** » Tue Aug 19, 2008 9:22 pm UTC

I am definitely going to be there.

Also, sleepy's av is no longer a gif. He has fulfilled the requirements placed upon him in the Court of Food. Good boy.

by **Goseph** » Thu Sep 04, 2008 12:48 am UTC

Hey I will probably give you guys a look in but are we all planning to turn up with masks and hoodies in true 'anonymous' style? Do you think thats a bit intimidating for the general public who don't know an anonymous protest from a gang-war? I'm all for anti-scientology awareness but perhaps we should stick with flamboyant costumes, or people will think we're the bad guys (plus we won't get arrested :-D

).
