Well, it only took 5 and a half years, but I figure it’s a good time for us to have a meet-up.

Those of you that hang out on Discord will have heard murmurings of this for a little while now – mostly from me. If you aren’t on Discord yet, I really urge you to give it a go; there’s lots of older members coming around. It’s like an easier IRC, but for people who like games, and it has voice chat: clicky to join.

Anyway, I’m looking to arrange a meet-up Stateside (to begin with) for QT peeps. Looking somewhere around Sept/Oct time, so there’s lots of time to plan and sort everything out. And since I’m the one planning it from the other side of ‘The Pond’, that time is definitely needed!

As for location, I’m looking at somewhere near Dallas/Fort Worth in Texas. Mostly because that’s Syn’s home turf, and it would be wrong to host the first one anywhere but her stomping grounds.

What I need for now is a virtual show-of-hands for if this is something you’re a) not bothered about; b) vaguely interested in; c) super interested in, so I can start looking at accommodation and other such fancy things.

tl;dr version:

QT Meetup in Texas in Sept/Oct of this year

Can you come/are you actually interested in going?

Thank you for your time. Please resume normal weekend service.

1. :0 Birthday is around this time, so I’d be all fors it.
2. Very interest. Much interest. Depends on funds and weather. If happening, will need plenty of notice (aka: Start saving now) so that Ivaan and I can make an appearance…. or I go to my parents and find some way to pop in for a day or something idk.

Would be very interested in going but probably won’t make it due to finances, going down to Texas would mean at least 2 flights for me + accommodation and etceteras and considering all the things I’m saving for I can say with about 90% certainty I won’t be able to make it as much as I’d like to 🙁 I will patiently wait and cross my fingers for a European meetup!

Accommodation is something for me to worry about. It’ll likely just be a couple/few days. I’ll be over for a bit longer, though.

Plan is – depending on interest levels – I’ll rent out a vacation/holiday apartment for a few days for however many people are coming – works out cheaper than hotel rooms, plus we can stay up all night having LAN parties and pizza funtimes.

I know some people are less able (financially) for accommodation or what-have-you, so I don’t expect everyone to pay an equal portion of the accommodation costs. Rule of thumb: don’t take the piss. 🙂

Very interested to meet people.

if this had happened last year I would already live an hour away but now it would be a 13-15 hour drive from Georgia but worth it.

look forward to possibly meeting people 🙂

B: vaguely interested.

That’s either a 12 hour drive or $77-$137 flight (I know, could be way worse, but I’m poor). If someone was along I-20 or I-30 I could pick up along the way to carpool, save on gas and share driving I’d be much more inclined.
