Saga Meet-up in Portland 12-15-11

[PinkRose]

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.

[Alirrin]

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.

[Jhared]

Have fun you guys.

[PinkRose]

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.

[Askari]

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.

[PinkRose]

What about next Thursday Night?

[Corsair]

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.

[Alirrin]

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. 

[Gith]

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.

[PinkRose]

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?

[Grimaldo]

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.

[Corsair]

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?

[Grimaldo]

Bou and Bahl are sorta in between. Maybe they have some ideas.

[PinkRose]

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.

[Kelora]

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...

[Grimaldo]

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

[Askari]

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?"

[Grimaldo]

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?"

Now THAT'S commitment! 

[Askari]

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?"

Now THAT'S commitment! 

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

[PinkRose]

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.
