Title: Saga Meet-up in Portland 12-15-11
Post by: PinkRose on December 08, 2011, 12:27:11 AM
I'm thinking we should get together Sunday, Dec. 18th.
Anyone that is around the Portland area.
Since there is a Guild get-together at 1pm our time, you'll all need to eat about 6 or 7pm.
Does this work for anyone that lives in the Portland area?


EDIT: THURSDAY NIGHT, Dec. 15th is the plan.

That's a long drive for a day trip, especially on a Sunday.  I'd love to come down, but I think I'll have to pass.

Alirrin, don't sweat it.
This isn't the full blown meet-ups we've had in the past. I'm just looking for Dinner and Drinks.
I know Corsair brought in a whole slew of Oregonians so I'm hoping to get to meet them.

I'm an Oregonian, but I'll be at a family Christmas event that day, since a lot of family members will be visiting out-of-state relatives the following weekend.

What about next Thursday Night?

I'll try to swing it.

I'd love to see Alrinn or Grimaldo or others be able to come in, but I dunno if that'll work without fairly in-depth schedule talks eh? But I am fairly confident can make Thursday work.

Yeah, 3-4 hours each way makes for a long day, PLUS I wouldn't get ANY gaming in that day. That's prime Early Access time, I have no plans to lose any of it.  :tan:

I found out from Map Quest that in the U.S. there is a Portland in Oregon, Maine, Texas, Pennsylvania, and Connecticut.

All of these are far away from me.

Post by: PinkRose on December 08, 2011, 11:12:50 AM
If you made it, you would be welcomed.
It's the Portland in, um, Texas, yeah, that's it.

So Corsair, you want to do dinner next Thursday?

If you had a shuttle you could send that could take me to Portland from Seattle in 20 minutes instead of 4 hours, I'd be all over this.



Title: Re: Saga Meet-up in Portland 12-15-11
Post by: Corsair on December 08, 2011, 12:03:03 PM
Yeah, Portland and Seattle are so close, yet so far.

Maybe we need to plan a mid-point. But I dunno of much to do in between hehe...we could all meet at some Indian Casino probably. With proper planning, I would try to make a run to Seattle to try a meet up there eh? Who all is there now? Grimaldo, Alrinn, Bou and Bahl...who am I forgetting?
Title: Re: Saga Meet-up in Portland 12-15-11
Post by: Grimaldo on December 08, 2011, 02:02:19 PM
Bou and Bahl are sorta in between. Maybe they have some ideas.

Ok, boys, calm down.
(BTW, Centralia is the middle stop. Outlet Mall shopping)
This thread is for the organizing of this small event next Thursday.

I'll happily put something together for later, maybe 1 month SWTOR anniversary, January 20th.

And don't forget ComicCon in July. BAH! Now you have me off-topic.

Completely off-topic as I'm on the east coast...


Oregonian sounds like an Elder Scrolls race adept at paper folding.


You may now resume your normal banter...

The appropriate way to properly derail any thread is to simply mention one little three letter word...

My SWTOR early access will likely start 12/14 or 12/15...

If the female cast of Firefly asked me out for pizza and beer... my answer would be, "Yeah sounds good, but can we do that in January?"

Well, if they said "now or never"... they'd win. But Ryland doesn't quite have their pull. No offense Ryland!

Come on now. You still have to eat.
Is there a Burgerville near you?
Or a Shari's?
I bet you are within walking distance of a McMenamin's.
Everybody is, in the Portland Metro area.

Askari, that is possibly the saddest, most epic fail ever.

But I won't say yer lying. If someone randomly asked me to guess your action in the exact scenario you describe, I'd have a hard time guessing which way you'd go.

Not that there's anything wrong with that. Except of course that it's just wrong.

If the  :vamp  of Firefly ask you to join them for pizza and  :brfm , their treat, you go. You can make up the extra few hours of   :exXO:  after you get back.

Invite your Fireflies to play SWTOR with you, and have the pizza and beer delivered while you're playing.  :brfm

Seriously, I don't know you or Firefly girls at all, but if ANY famous girl asks you to pizza and beer, you go.  Hell.. they don't even have to be famous, I'd go... Beer, Pizza and a Female of the species can make up for alot of SWTOR.

If a Boo hway-hun duh puo-foo from firefly asks you out, you say only if you buy the beer.
Have to play it a bit cool.
She could become your bao bay.

Sorry, I'd dump all y'all for any one of them, let alone all four.

Hyperbole? Guilty.

But as Corsair can confirm, it's difficult to get me to go anywhere with anyone for any reason on any night. I'm five matching numbers and a powerball away from being a shut-in!

And on an MMO early access night?!?

Uh hum.
There was a point to this thread.

Is anyone going to want to do dinner on Thursday, the 15th near the Portland area?
Title: Re: Saga Meet-up in Portland 12-15-11
Post by: Corsair on December 09, 2011, 01:14:27 AM
I'll do it.

To heck with the rest of these losers.

I hope someone else shows though. Don't want people to talk....

Post by: PinkRose on December 13, 2011, 02:24:05 PM
Just checking in for Thursday night.
I'm free all day so I can meet anywhere.
Corsair, you want to pick a place close to Askari so he has no reason not to show up?
And the rest of you!!! I will come to your houses and find you!
You probably should be dressed by 6:30pm on Thursday, just a warning!
