Hey!

We are planning a huge forum meet this august in Vancouver on the 20th. Everyone is invited, all SSC forumers, SSP forumers, and forumers from other cities as well. The last forum meet we had in Vancouver was over 3 years ago and theres alot of new faces, so lets all get together for a day and have some fun!

So anyone here interested?

Will there be booze? Lets get trashed, I'm serious!

Yes there will be booze.

Sweet, where are you planning on holding it?

Will there be booze? Lets get trashed, I'm serious!
HAHAHA

im so down, thats like 4 days after my ninteenth birthday, lets get trashed in style, at the cambie

I have an exam that week so I need to study, otherwise I'd go. :( Post some pictures though plz. :)

Well I think it will start out with a walk around downtown, checking out the new developements and such. Then after all the skyscraper stuff is out of the way we can drink!

so when is this bender I mean meeting?

I plan to drink during the walk.

The meet's Aug 20th...

I should bring my flask, if I make it, for the walk.

lets focus more on the actual meet, you can drink anytime, but theres only one day for this meet

You can drink anytime, but how often can you meet and drink, at the same time?

I've got a nice little flask to bring along.

Anyhoo, I'm in :cheers:

true, but ill be drinking cans of beer, might as well

^ Fair enough........

Someone ought to make a nice graphic for this event.......

....and it should be better than this one:

We could get custom-engraved ones, with SSP / SSC Meet 2005 on them.

How about our forum nicks instead?

^ Huh?

OK, kids, I'm thinking of booking the ol' standby, the Century Plaza.... good idea? ....when we were youngstrers, we'd always go there when in town for a concert, it'll kind of bring back old memories....

screw the flasks, do it Trailer Park Boys style. Drink straight from a 40oz. Hahaha. This will be the best convention ever.

if im not moving in i might just have to show up for this.

Naw, 40s are the everyday. Flasks come out for special occasions.

Its too bad all the alleyways in vancouver will be stench free by the time the meet comes.

but i was looking forward to the stench! actually i probably would have contributed to it. joking

Jada, do you have an unofficial list of (confirmed) attendees?

if theres an official list, make sure im on it

^ so let me get this right, you want to be on the OFFICIAL list, but not the UNOFFICIAL list?

Jada, for security purposes, will these lists be kept on opposite sides of the continent? If we had kept them both at the low-water mark, they could well have been wiped out last night by the tsunami - now that would have been a REAL disaster....

That fucking tsunami. I love how I didnt hear anything about it until I heard the announcement that the tsunami warning for the west coast was called off.

Yeah, well that could have been too late.

Anyways VHF, dont worry about the official/unoffical list. I am living well above the sea level so my list will be safe from any impending tsunami doom.

^ so let me get this right, you want to be on the OFFICIAL list, but not the UNOFFICIAL list?

thats right, whats the point of an unofficial list?

^ The unofficial list is exempt from government access via the Patriot Act.

VHF, where are you shacked up during your stay?

so the government will find out that someone of legal age is going to drink beer and take pictures, i can live with that, ps im not trying to start any arguments, cheers

^that's suspicious activity, drinking alcohol and taking photos of highrises. Yup.

Next think you know you're approaching the seaplane docks and it doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out your intent. See?

Wait a minute, this is a forum for closet terrorists, isnt it?

That fucking tsunami. I love how I didnt hear anything about it until I heard the announcement that the tsunami warning for the west coast was called off.

Yeah, well that could have been too late.

I tried to warn you. (http://www.skyscrapercity.com/showthread.php?t=224711)

How about this. I just modified my failed photoshop contest entry.

Rosedale Robson.

No love for the logo?

hey koz is that a picture of you in your avatar

I think I have holidays at this time so you can put me on the unofficial list!
However if Koz does not have a flask for me when I come I hope he can tell me of a great place to buy one!

Nope, that's not me, I'm a bit paler although I have been known to carry a boombox on my shoulders. But no, I'm not that guy who walks around downtown with a boombox.

I will try to secure several flasks nanaimo, we shall see. I might swipe a couple off VHF once he passes out.

whats wrong with beer cans, or liquor bottles? ................mabey a box of wine

Ah, 40s it is then. As long as I'm not the only one swailing back on a 40, I'm down.

ha, fourtys. il drink a colt if you do aswell, mabey ill have two

It's Olde English for me, yo. Colt is just too hardcore. But a 40's a 40, either way it tastes like rancid soapy water but gets you plastered.

^ MMMMMMmm, plastered...

No love for the logo?

YA, I LIKED THE LOGO. Anywho, this baby is only a little over a month away now.

Loook out!

3+ weeks!

Looking forwards to it! Im going to have to advertise this in other regional forums.

keep me posted guys, there is still a chance that I might go.

theres a chance i might still get drunk

It would be great to see you again Itom. The meeting is august 20th.

We are still planning this forumer meet in Vancouver for august 20th. If you plan to attend please mention it in this thread as I am trying to compile a roll call of who will be attending. And if you are travelling from other cities and have questions about Vancouver or the meet, feel free to ask. We will try to help you out as best as we can! :)

My chances of coming to the meet aren't looking so good. :(

looks like you guys had fun, too bad i was working. did you go to the cambie? 9.75 pitchers

The cambie isnt the proper place.. too loud and not the right scene for some of the people at the meet. Instead we went to Steamworks, and the prices were alright.

Hey Nanaimo Bars we didn't see you. It would have been nice to have another person from the Island. I came over from Parksville that morning.

Yes sorry Dylan, I was really looking forward to this meeting too! :(
I had a bit of a emergency come up to disrupt my plans. As I was all set too go. Hope all had a great time weather was not too hot for the long walk.

I hope all had fun and understand these do not come around often but plan to attend in the future.
