@arctempest What kind of game is it?
-
@arctempest !vancouverbronies I guess my big question is whether people would come from so far afield for a one-day "big meet" type of event without some really clear draw.
-
@arctempest we are actually building a con out in Calgary come check out calgarybronycon.blogspot.com for full details
-
@arctempest !vancouverbronies Well, @bronymike and I were discussing such a thing with @afancorp there for a bit but it hasn't been brought up again in many months. A con is a pretty serious logistical exercise, though. Bigger meetups would be easier, I agree. And yeah, we know all about outdoor meetups and weather patterns...
-
@arctempest !bcbronies Er, I just kinda went in a circle with my points there. Addendum: Planned well in advance, a really big meetup that's not quite on the same scale as Everfree could work very nicely as well, but just bear in mind the difficulty involved in planning all this. The simpler and the cheaper, the better it'll generally be, and the issue with Vancouver is that perhaps the simplest idea - some sort of outdoor thing like a picnic or barbecue or something - would be pretty damn hard to plan due to our weather patterns. Long story short, I'm sleepy and can't get my points across straight.
-
@arctempest !bcbronies Yeah, that's the thing. EF is the entire large-scale northwestern Brony convention and compared to a lot of places people are coming from to attend, it's right at our back door. A "Bronycon Canada", as it would be, is pretty unrealistic, due to the crazy size of Canada, and any sort of central location would wind up being so much further away for lots of people than an equivalent US con would be. I suppose you can plan a very large-scale BC/Alberta/Yukon(?)/Washington(??) brony meetup/convention, it's just that with Everfree already having so much headway and being so close, it seems smarter to me to have more attendees save their money and just come to that one.
-
@arctempest !bcbronies Yeah, like @tophat said, Everfree's your best bet. It's down in Seattle, which is quite convenient, considering the alternatives. It's also got an amazing planning committee and I think a really big BC-based Canada-wide meetup/festival/convention would just cannibalize attendees. Plenty of time before August to get a passport if you don't have one. And if you can't make it, then the best option's probably to meet with a lot of bronies at pre-existing conventions or to just go to any bigger-scale meetups we plan on here.
-
@arctempest !bcbronies trouble crossing the border? if not, there's always Everfree NW...
-
@arctempest more then likely we also have a meet every saturday now at joyce collingwood station
-
@arctempest !vancouverbronies Yeah, you should probably come to a meetup soon. I still have your glasses.
-
@arctempest I had to miss it too. :c
-
@arctempest !vancouverbronies Yeah, more people need to stay for the unplanned after party that was caused by people getting stranded.
-
@arctempest Yes, the map shows you bouncing all over the place, it looks like. It would appear that southern B.C. is currently in a state of quantum flux, where you are in multiple locations at the same time in that area. These things happen. Please remain calm, and ignore any encounters with your duplicate selves.
-
@arctempest Ponies are definitely a big distraction. :p
-
@arctempest Aww, well I hope you feeling better. :c
-
@arctempest Hay there Vancouver pony! How's it going? >:3
-
@arctempest yah it was awesome. who was you again?
-
!vancouverbronies currently chilling & eating ramen with @arctempest , @redtie , @robotsnblasters , @Cracky , @asvendius , & my sister at metrotown
-
@arctempest How big is it?
-
@arctempest It would be magical :D
-
@arctempest You will be doing Celestia's work, brony.
-
@arctempest @elusivemrmadden BRILLIANT
-
@arctempest Sorry I'm getting back to you so late. The person in charge is accepting all forms of submissions! Here's the thread - http://www.ponychan.net/chan/collab/res/725.html
-
@arctempest Mmhh, the Master Plan! :D - I just like talking with others, keeps the day moving quickly; get through school and such.
-
@arctempest Totally! Could've used more sleep, but today is looking like a good day! Plus I get to talk online to people, excellent!
-
@arctempest Horray! Easy math! Linear was a pretty good course, xD
-
@arctempest Horray! Architecture, nice field choice! You will of course have some math, but I don't think believe it's too terrible? I go to a primarily engineering/architecture school, yet I can't say I know any Architecture students xD
-
@arctempest Ahhh gotcha. Yeah, always the long homework that's bothersome. D:
-
@arctempest Which course is this that you're in? Math is frustrating from time to time - no doubt!
-
@arctempest C:
