Potential NYC Champion meet-up?

Hey all,

I'll be in the States late October/early November this year and thought the idea of a Champion get-together could be fun.

Nothing concrete so far, idea being to meet up for a meal/drinks/whatever if people want to get to know the real person behind the keyboard. Sortof a Champion mini-heroCon

Who is interested, ideas, feedback, whatever?

Oh and last time I was in NYC I was able to confirm there are gas stations, so people can have knife fights there or whatever if they are so inclined.

You would pick the time around when I'm moving to do this.

Funny because I'm takin' my vacation roughly around that time of the year. Just get me a plane ticket and I'm in like flint.

When I am deciding whether or not to do something, I first consider if it will cause you anguish. If it will not, then I must give much thought to whether or not this action is worth doing at all.

In seriousness, it'd be like a day or two. Friday or Saturday afternoon/evening. Come party with me, Stray. For clarity, I'd be looking to do this on the Friday or Saturday the 5th or 6th of November.

Horus get in on this actionnnnnn. Take a Greyhound or whatever it is that Americans use since they don't have public transport. Horse drawn cart? I don't know, leave a few weeks in advance.

Well, I can't say for sure right now, but call me interested. I haven't been to NYC in like 2 years or something even though I only live about a half hour from Staten Island.

I'll see what I can do, but NYC is about 10 hours by car for me, so that makes it difficult to be a "day or two" trip.

So this is happening.

Saturday, November 5th. People who are interested, please contact me via global tell or board PM and I'll give you the details.

Plan is meet for dinner in restaurant that serves both food and rapscallions, then go on to a bar of some description. People are welcome to join for either or both, go nuts.

Make it an Irish pub that serves food, and you might get to try a dish called Champ, which is made with scallions. How's that for synergy?

'Don't be impertinent,' said the King, 'and don't look at me like that!' He got behind Alice as he spoke.

My home town. Wish I knew, I'd drive up from DC just to say hi.

If you haven't decided on a place yet, consider the Jekyll and Hyde pub in Greenwich Village. My entree of choice is the Jekyll Steak, with some Old Peculier to wash it down.

@Turg, Join us! The more the merrier and all that

@Shin, Join us too! You've got a week to sell enough gold to make it here.

@Shadow Wail, Yep definitely the 5th of November. Original plan was the 4th but a lot of people are working on that day so they wouldn't be able to make it in time.
I'm gonna be sending out the info in the next day or two to everyone. Glad you can make it

@Aneko, my mind: it is blown

So far only one person has confirmed they're attending, so I'm afraid I'm gonna call it off.

A big shame, but I know now that NYC might not have been the best choice of venue due to how insanely expensive lodgings are and I admit I've not been super on the ball about organizing this. Lessons learned.

Thanks for the interest everyone, would have been cool but so it goes. My apologies.
