    1. @shoutingryan I'll do my best not to let you down. ^^ Personally I live 2 hours outside of Pittsburgh so going there an a whim isn't always easy. I appreciate your offer to help and since you're more local to Pittsburgh you'd be a great help. ^^ We can talk more about it later I think. Exchange ideas and whatnot.

    2. @shoutingryan I just called a guy I know who owns a game store in Duncansville, PA he said we could do one there, anytime. The only thing is I don't know if Pittsburgh Bronies would wanna drive 1.5 hours. Haha.

      1. @jinroh that seems extremely far. I'm an hour west of Pittsburgh... Which is where I thought it would be. Did you consider the convention center? If we can confirm enough guests, we can make that work. Set up a group on Facebook and advertise it on the tekkoshocon page. I bet that would help big time in having it successful.

        1. @shoutingryan Yeah the convention center would be great if we could get enough Bronies out there. ^^ I was just trying to think of somewhere that would be more easy on the old wallet if we didn't get too many our first run.

          1. @jinroh look around for a local community centre, those are cheap, if not free at times.

            1. @lacerta Thanks for the advice. ^^ The only problem is that community centers near me are too far to be useful. XD

              1. @jinroh There might be ones not listed though, places that wont be on the internet, or spots like a library that doubles as one. I live in a rural area, and I can tell you theres about 7 of them at least that I know of within 10 minutes that are not listed. Go take a drive and look for some sometime :3

                1. @lacerta There's some around here, and I'm in tight with the library board, but nobody would want to come here. haha. I live in the rural areas too. XD I guess I'll just need somebody more local to Pittsburgh to help find a venue.

                  1. @jinroh Let me know when you get a group/fan page set up on facebook. If not, I can do it. Then we can see what the population/attendence we can expect.

                    1. @shoutingryan You're from Pittsburgh?

                      Thursday, 07-Jul-11 02:24:34 UTC from web
                      1. @starshine yep

                        1. @shoutingryan @jinroh Are either of you considering going to the Columbus meetup? Pittsburgh's not too horribly far away!

                    2. @jinroh And you're from .... not-really-Pittsburgh?

                      Thursday, 07-Jul-11 02:25:16 UTC from web
                      1. @starshine Yes, not really from Pittsburgh. Just the 2 hours out from Pittsburgh, and the closest option Purple Tinker gave me was Pittsburgh.

                      2. @starshine I meant to say, I wanted to start a Brony group chapter to raise Brony awareness, and the closest option that Purple Tinker gave me was Pittsburgh.

                        Thursday, 07-Jul-11 02:56:43 UTC from web
                        1. @jinroh You can start your own group, you know!

                          Thursday, 07-Jul-11 03:04:05 UTC from web
                          1. @starshine Haha, yes I certainly can, but technically I also started the Pittsburgh group as well. I'd hate to disapoint @shoutingryan, by not following through.

                            Thursday, 07-Jul-11 03:13:20 UTC from web
                        2. @jinroh Oh... that explains a bit.

                          Thursday, 07-Jul-11 03:14:41 UTC from web
                    3. @shoutingryan Yeah you might be better at that one, since I have a grudge against facebook.

                      Thursday, 07-Jul-11 02:53:31 UTC from web
                    4. @shoutingryan I was thinking if we get < 500 Bronies expected we could move to the Carnegie Mellon Library possibly. That place is pretty big if memory serves and it would cheap if not free.

    3. @starshine Just shy of 5 hours from me. Not terrible. I've been trying to convert my friends to join the herd since December, but it's not taking. XD I'd have to hogtie them so they'll come with me.

    4. @izurin Weird! The same thing happened to me when I tried to raise Aglet awareness. ^^ Great minds think alike.
