@bronymike !vancouverbronies To play devil's advocate here, December's a busy month for a lot of people (myself included) so a late-November meetup might actually net more attendees. I think monthly meetups are a good plan in general, but also would be perfectly happy with more small "I'm doing X, who wants to join me"-level stuff in between.
-
!vancouverbronies Okay, so what exactly is going on re: Laser Tag? From my understanding, the plan was that it'd be on the 27th, and that @echron1000 would be collecting money over next weekend (19th/20th). Is that what's still happening, or am I out of the loop on something here?

!midlandsbronies I'm sorry I cannot make it to the Christmas Meetup in Birmingham. On December 17th I'll be with my orchestra, playing the Christmas Family Concert (see http://www.sheffieldphilharmonic.org.uk/performances). Unless all you ponies decide to have two Meetups in Sheffield this year ;-)

@purplephish20 Apologies, my computer crashed. I'm doing okay, ta! You?
-
@pawnheart I'm cool, just cooking
-
!midlands "Yorkshire is now in the Midlands." I fully support this statement, as it means that more meetups will be within range for me! In other news: I think my closet bronyness just went flying out the window! http://dl.dropbox.com/u/6674290/ohgodIhaveaproblem.JPG AJ is not pictured, I didn't notice at the time! D:

!midlands Congratulations guys we are on the nighty Roundup! We should post some more pictures up if we can if more people are interested.
Wednesday, 09-Nov-11 14:14:19 UTC from web -
!midlands We're probably going to be getting a little bit more traffic here since the roundup. Have we got any more photos to post?
Wednesday, 09-Nov-11 14:05:14 UTC from web -
!midlands Yes, roundup it is! That's the second time I've been on there! :D
Wednesday, 09-Nov-11 12:42:48 UTC from web -
!midlands and there we are, on the Nightly Roundup!
Wednesday, 09-Nov-11 09:14:30 UTC from web-
@purplephish20 eeyup. I wish I'd not just had a haircut when the photo was taken: I look like that guy in Beetlejuice with the shrunken head.
-
!midlands Can do, I guess. I've had an email conversation with him before actually. Goodness knows how he finds the time!
Tuesday, 08-Nov-11 08:34:18 UTC from web -
!midlands Any plans to inform EqD of the meetup?
Monday, 07-Nov-11 17:14:19 UTC from web -
!midlands And as promised during last Saturday's meet-up: the link of my newest PMV. I uploaded it last night. So, enjoy http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GnoEPsufsXQ btw, I also saw the French versions of 'Winter Wrap Up' and 'At the Gala'. I love those, especially Twilight's French singing voice. But then again, I might be a bit biased :-)

My legs still ache from the most intense game of lasertag ever. Ow.
Monday, 07-Nov-11 09:04:10 UTC from web-
@shaunnnnnnnnn !midlandsbronies all went laser tagging together 2 days ago, it was epic!
-
@rotation Ahh, that concrete ring... Caked in primordial soup... And bear grylls drink of choice
-
-
@purplephish 20 @pawnheart !midlands Hmm, nopony told anypony to sit on the concrete thingie. But well, maybe I should have been a bit more proactive in my directions: could have directed all of us to Weston Park. Bigger and better than... well.... Unfortunately for all of us me not being so convincing, guess that's the Fluttershy-part of my character :)
Sunday, 06-Nov-11 13:39:08 UTC from web -
!midlands Yeah... we spent an awful lot of time gathered around that urine-soaked piece of concrete in the park... Like a northern '2001: A Space Odyssey'.

!midlands What is a visit to Sheffield without seeing a fight? Well.... Should I be ashamed to say that's the city I live in? Anyway, it is true that Sheffield is quite the green city, but that's because part of it stretches out towards the Peak District. The meetup was wonderful, have to go to more meetups. And do some studying in between for the quiz. Or some training for laser quest? Nah, I'd rather remain a pacifist :-) Thanks all for showing up. For those interested here's the URL to my first PMV 'Twilight's Kosmos': http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vl8pvK0iXwE

The funniest part of today's meetup, to EVERYPONY who was not there, was when we where walking along, and we saw a group of people... All wearing fursuit... Yes that's right, the furries AND the Bronies were occupying Sheffield today, and 2 of them (wearing fursuits) began to beat the cherries out of each other, blood was drawn on the one dressed as a tiger, I could see... Don't know what happened, but my immediate vocal response was "meanwhile, at furrfinity" !midlands

@purplephish20 Sorry derped that last post. Was going to say I was the guy wearing the many different expressions of Pinkie Pie T-Shirt, and the furry fight clearly shows the rough and tumble side of the community. Also it was just funny. !midlands
-
!midlands Big thank you to everyone who came out today! I had a really nice time, and I hope everypony else enjoyed themselves too!
Saturday, 05-Nov-11 23:12:47 UTC from web- - repeated this.
-
To everyone that went to the !midlandsbronies meet up in Shefield today, I hope you all had a great day! Wish I could have been there.
-
@pawnheart Yeah, in Birmingham I believe. :)
-
@leonkfox In all honesty, probably not, december I'm really busy, plus I'll be broke! :( and birmingham... That's like... Over 9000 miles away! But yeah, it would be fun, but... I will lose ALL the monies doing so
-
@purplephish20 No worries, prior occupations and distance were two reasons I didn't go to the Sheffield one today.
-
-
!midlands did you know, that with an estimated 2.5 million trees in the area, Sheffield has the highest ratio of trees to people in europe! (not sure If true, or just wikipedia talking crap again)
Saturday, 05-Nov-11 23:07:33 UTC from web-
@purplephish20 ...there were trees? I'd have liked there to have been trees...

!midlands Today was a good day, for ponies! (bonus points for guessing the reference) Here are the pics from my camera: http://i235.photobucket.com/albums/ee109/Klayking/IMG_0782.jpg http://i235.photobucket.com/albums/ee109/Klayking/IMG_0783.jpg

@klayking I recognise a good portion of those people! Kevin, I think their names were...

@purplephish20 laser tag seems fun

!midlandsbronies Today was amazing, was really glad to be a part of it. Hope everyone else enjoyed it too.

Hey guys!!! Back after avoiding RDN like the plague due to possible spoilers, watched the episode... No spoilers but it's AWESOME. One of the best so far IMO, the meetup today was epic! !midlands drenched in sweat after the lasering, and my god... REAL REAL REAL ale is a damn site more fancy shmancy and stronger than guiness!!
Saturday, 05-Nov-11 21:11:45 UTC from web-
@cloudynights Ahhh yes! Blondie!
-
@purplephish20 Haha Yep that's the one!
-
@purplephish20 Not remembering names? I recognise that feeling. Have already enough troubles remembering the right first name with the right face, not to mention nicknames. So that's why I had my name on my coat :D Btw, the street where we saw the clash of the furries was named Division Street. Classic case of nomen est omen?

!midlands See you all tommorow! @pawnheart I'm bringing my 12mp camera along for pics and stuff. Hopefully we should be on EQD!
Friday, 04-Nov-11 23:05:41 UTC from web-
@klayking Awesooome! Cheers. See you at the rendezvous.
-
-
!midlands Hay guys! Just wondering... anypony got a decent camera for tomorrow? I'm afraid I don't even have on on my phone! Anyhoo, looking forward to seeing you all!
Friday, 04-Nov-11 22:42:48 UTC from web -
!midlands Thanks for the contact numbers. I'll be at the station somewhere around 11.15 for the only reason I am rather half an hour early than a minute to late. Now off preparing for tomorrow: where did I leave my clipboard? :-D
Friday, 04-Nov-11 21:21:04 UTC from web-
@yorkiebrony !midlands, ditto, ill be at the station at about 11:15 as the train from worksop is at 10:15. Outside next to the "wall of water" amirite?
-
@purplephish20 Totally right. Just look out for the flag and anypony wearing a black University of Sheffield Equestrian Club jacket :-)
-
-
!midlandsbronies Hay there! Hope you're looking forward to tomorrow! The contact numbers for @rotation and myself can be found in a text file @ http://www.mediafire.com/?e2z32032yyanmqq. The password is the second half of twilight's name (all lower case).

@seanthebluesheep In order to say it didn't work... you must have understood it, ergo: success!
-
@seanthebluesheep ...please... it's all I have...
-
!midlands @rotation Am I correct in assuming that we still don't have blindbags in the UK? If so, how much are they? I've always wanted a #3 (RD) and a #6 (FS) but I've never found them anywhere.

@fallinwinter Theveryideaofsuchathingjustmakes youwanna... hahaha! KILL.
-
@pawnheart Aloha.
-
@pawnheart o.o Kinda creepy, but kinda neat. :3
-
-
@klayking the guy said that the laser tag'll be done at 4.30, so that shouldn't be a problem...
Thursday, 03-Nov-11 22:32:52 UTC from web-
@purplephish20 There's about 12 of us, which I think is a nice kinda size.
-
@purplephish20 I know, I'm pretty chuffed too, especially since the first few responses after the announcement were of the 'I really can't make it' variety.
-
-
!midlands @purplephish20 Hell yea!
