!vancouverbronies Speaking on terms of my camera, this could be the ONE opportunity to do a flash mob of either Winter Wrap Up or Smile. It would make a pretty good thing to show to Daniel in case he shows up to the screening. Just a thought...

@bronymike !vancouverbronies I'm thinking of doing it in a wide open space near the con (The Torch/Plaza area seems pretty wide and open) I am attending since I want to tag along until the screening.
-
@jackzhang !vancouverbronies as much fun as letting go and being a "mob" is, It is often seen as bothersome to people in the area, Just kind of a touchy thing to do is all.
-
@snazzy101 !vancouverbronies If it rains, it is cancelled. It pretty much means morning or nothing. IDK, if there is interest it would be worth pursuing...
-
-
!vancouverbronies What does everpony think of having a camera set up to record the audience reactions at the finale viewing? I think it would make an interesting video.

!bcbronies @tesla500 We're gonna have the second screening either way, I figure. Looks like some people can only come to the later one, so it's the nicest option. We've got the room for that long anyway, so why not. @jackzhang Have you also got a tripod or something, so you don't have to stand up and face the opposite direction of the projection for the whole time? Heh.
-
@tesla500 !vancouverbronies No, I'll probably be using it at Fan Expo for a bit and then go to the screening.
-
@bronymike !vancouverbronies Yes, I have a tripod. But if it rains, my raincover for my backpack can't fit the tripod. In that case, I'll hand hold it outside and attach it to the backpack inside.
-
-
!bcbronies So, here's what we've got. I've updated the doc ( http://mlpf.im/BcFinale ) with info on meetin' up at the convention. To non-convention-goers, did you determine anything about a pre-library meetup for the day? If so, lemme know, I'll put it in the doc. We'll probably do the same meetup routine on Sunday if it works out.

!bcbronies Alright, I've got a damn busy few days up ahead and will have minimal time for planning. Does ANYONE live or work near the convention centre who could stop by and check out a good meeting spot for the morning of Fan Expo Saturday? Unless anyone objects, I still say meeting in a specific spot at anywhere from like 9:15-10:00 would be the best way to all get together and figure out the day's schedule. @thepuzzldpirate The library's freakin' huge, is there a specific street this parkade's on that you could give to help direct people?
Thursday, 19-Apr-12 08:35:46 UTC from web-
@bronymike !bcbronies Oops, forgot to say: Yeah, let's go with the Raindrop as the meetup point. East side of the centre. Here's what it looks like: http://derpy.me/h0xzR
-
@spectrumflash Oh, is that what that thing is? My lunchtime runs at work usually take me past that.
-
@tequilasunrise Eeyup! I like to think of it as one of Derpy's Mistakes In Weather Monumentized :)

-
!bcbronies @bronymike, There is a food court at the lib, find the mini mcdonalds I will be outside of it, you do not need to enter the building you can find me by walking around the block.
Thursday, 19-Apr-12 13:38:23 UTC from web-
@thepuzzldpirate Wait, food court? I thought we were meeting at some parkade. Where is the entrance to the conference room? People are going to all be showing up at different times, and I want them to be as not-lost as possible. A street name or at least some sort of directions (other than "at the library") is gonna be needed, or people WILL get lost. The library takes up a whole block.
-
-
@bronymike Hey there, do you know where everyone is meeting up at the fan expo before the screening?
Thursday, 19-Apr-12 18:35:02 UTC from web-
@noise Pay attention to the group. We're planning it.
-
-
!bcbronies My Discord outfit's gonna just make me look like some homeless dude who wandered into the convention
Thursday, 19-Apr-12 11:24:49 UTC from web -
!bcbronies Alright, I tossed up some legal mumbo-jumbo regarding people being photographed. Once again, details here: http://mlpf.im/BcFinale. Anyway, tomorrow and Friday I'll see what I can find out through GMaps StreetView or something and try to plan meetup spots. I still think something like 9:30 (or earlier) until 10:00 would be a good time to meet up at whatever spot we pick, though.

@mcbrony Ah, I recall this. Classic. Very positive.

!bcbronies ...alright, I never hit Enter, but whatever. Gonna have to ask Big Puzzy (@thepuzzldpirate) about that, I reckon.
Thursday, 19-Apr-12 05:24:43 UTC from web -
!bcbronies Alrighty. So, before I frantically start studying for the final exams (oh good god it's plural) I've got tomorrow, I'd just like to remind people yet again that we have a second screening planned, so you can feel free to invite a bunch of your friends again, as long as the complete total number doesn't go above 120. Once again, the finale meetup details are here: http://mlpf.im/BcFinale. If there's anything you think I should add to or edit in the document, lemme know. It might not get edited until tomorrow night or maybe Thursday, though, tomorrow's gonna be crazy for me. Everyone feel free to scout out and plan some meeting locations for the morning of the con, though. There are big pier-like walkways to either side of the convention centre, we could meet pretty much anywhere. Also, I think this John DeLancie photo op has to be paid for, and I have no idea if there's a max number of people that can be in it. Someone look into it. I'll be back Thursday. 1000 characters YES
Wednesday, 18-Apr-12 06:32:53 UTC from web-
@bronymike !vancouverbronies Hopefully we'll be okay numbers-wise if some shift to the second screening.
-
@bronymike I've never been to this building before, Any chance you have a photo or description of exactly where I need to go? also, how early can we show up and be able to take up a slot? Thanks for the help, Hope to see you all soon.
-
!bcbronies @phunkymat No clue yet regarding at-the-con meetups. It's been a busy few weeks. Hopin' for something along the lines of meetin' from 9:30-10:00AM somewhere on the right side of the convention centre, then goin' in once it opens, but I'm all the way down in White Rock and don't have any way of surveying the area, so I was hoping someone a bit more in-the-area could sess it out over the next day or two and find good meeting places that EVERYONE isn't gonna wind up using, or at least would be big enough to have multiple bunches of people meeting up. Surely there are gonna be a bunch of little groups of people meeting, so we'll need to be strategic about this. This also ties into @snazzy101's question about the specifics of the library. I'm not from the area, so I won't be able to provide better details as to what the heck "the parkade" refers to or how we enter from there. Gonna have to ask
-
-
!bcbronies @tequilasunrise Thanks, man. We can always count on you. "Not if I do first!" HA HA HA HA HA and then the episode fades out and the credits roll.
Wednesday, 18-Apr-12 06:00:12 UTC from web -
!vancouverbronies Popular event with limited ticket to give away? Better start doing favour and persuade ticket holder how you are their best friend.

@tequilasunrise Is counting your special talent? Is your cutie-mark an abacus? ... Your name doesn't fit your talent.
-
@asvendius I learned by counting shots.
-
@tequilasunrise That actually makes a lot of sense.

-
!vancouverbronies What time/where is everybody meeting up at the con center before we head to the library?
Wednesday, 18-Apr-12 02:58:50 UTC from web-
@tjdetweiler !bcbronies I think most of us are hoping to go to the John DeLancie Q&A, then the photoshoot that's apparently open with him after that, then heading to the library from there.
-
-
@bronymike sorry I know your super busy but how can I private message you?
Wednesday, 18-Apr-12 02:19:45 UTC from web-
@doeeyed Not quite sure. I think there's a private messaging system when people are subscribed to each other, but I've got no idea beyond that. Youtube would probably be the easiest way if you really need to talk to me privately, http://youtube.com/bronymike though I'm fairly busy right now workin' on a crappy Discord outfit and studying for finals.
-
-
!bcbronies Oh, yike... down to first-come-first-allowed-in-the-room? *ulp* Well, I'm still planning to be there, and I'll be swinging by my office downtown to grab a copy of the episodes. Out of interest, what do you want for those? Full 1080, or 720? (ie, what can the hardware being brought support?)
Wednesday, 18-Apr-12 00:49:27 UTC from web-
@spectrumflash !bcbronies I think we only need 720p.
-
-
@thepuzzldpirate !bcbronies Thanks, by the way, for working so hard on all this planning. I'm currently in the process of modifying the http://mlpf.im/BcFinale document to reflect the changes. Everyone let me know if there's anything I neglected to mention or anything that should be edited. @seanprice Sorry. We're busy planning the finale meetup. You can roll with my crew at Fan Expo, I'll figure out a meeting place for when they open the gates. Swag. @thunderdash We don't know the current number, though people were only supposed to sign up on the poll if they were absolutely coming. I know that's a load of crap and idiots are going to sign up on it either way, but we'll probably get some tag-alongs from the Expo so it balances out. DO NOT invite more people. I am very sorry about this. The document was just to get a gauge for how many people are coming and signing up on there DOES NOT GUARANTEE ANYONE A SPOT.

@thepuzzldpirate Could you add me on Skype? robotronn
-
@garyoak I actually dont use skype, if you have steam bug me there, same name there, if not email me at Iambergman@live.com or facebook me. All of these work.
-
-
!Bcbronies Cancel all invites from here on, I apoligize but we are unable to expand and because of fire saftey, we can NOT GO OVER 60, If we end up with more than 60, i will start turning people away from the door who don't bring money. The only people who i will play favortism is to staff that were part of the show. Again I apoligize but this is now completly out of my hands. If anyone is coming from facebook, copy and paste this
Tuesday, 17-Apr-12 23:37:10 UTC from web-
!bcbronies @thepuzzldpirate dole. So is the other room booked, or will they just not change the contract?
-
@thepuzzldpirate !bcbronies So wait, are we already at 60, or just very close? If the latter, how many people are actually intending to go?
-
-
!bcbronies Alright, we just got a few more people added to the list, and I'm becoming concerned for the capacity. There are some other people who work on the show who got wind of the meetup and are hoping to attend. @thepuzzldpirate Would you be able to expand? I'm sorry for not doing this before Saturday, and if you can think of a way for me to get you the extra money needed to rent the other room, I'll gladly pay the difference. I figure when we're taking the $5 at the door, we'll make sure you get paid off first, and then I'll bear the risk of not earning back my part. Got any ideas?
Tuesday, 17-Apr-12 18:22:27 UTC from web-
@jackzhang Hot damn!
-
@bronymike !bcbronies I'm working till 8 so I won't be able to call, call thier office before 5, just say your with the vancouver brony group and asked how concerend they are if we go over, if they are upset, ask them if the other room is avalable for expansion, get back to me with the awnser and we go from there, their number is 604-331-3823

@tesla500 !bcbronies So, just checking, you're ABSOLUTELY SURE you'll be bringing a working projector to this meetup?
Friday, 13-Apr-12 05:55:50 UTC from web-
@tesla500 I've got like a 20-foot VGA cable, we should be fine on that front. I was mainly concerned about the aspect ratio, actually. The show's in the standard 16:9, so I'm just hoping it won't wind up looking weird and stretched/squished on the screen. And just to be sure, the quality's fine and the colours come out looking right?
-
@bronymike I finally got around to testing the projectors last night, they both work fine. Aspect ratio is no problem, they show black bars as required to maintain the aspect ratio. One projector is slightly brighter, the other has better color. I'd go with the one that has better color, given that the room has no windows and can be made dark. On the audio side of things, do we have everything required to go from the laptop's 1/8" jack to whatever speakers we're using?
-
-
!vancouverbronies 51 people so far. Barring a last-minute surge I think we'll be okay.
Tuesday, 17-Apr-12 02:10:28 UTC from web-
@bronymike !Vancouverbronies i'll be coming!
-
@tigerdusk !bcbronies Oh crap, sorry. Email client wasn't tellin' me about new emails. http://mlpf.im/BcFinale I typoed it before.

!bcbronies: okay, I will say this now and probably some of it at the meetup, keep a level of class and not get to rowdy,I would like to keep it casual but no yelling at the top of your lungs please. I missread about food, they have to know what we bring in ourselves, they know about pop and chips so please refrain from bringin anything but snack related. Some baked goods but keep it finger food. I dont want to break contract. Last of all, this space isnt ours so clean up after yourselves. I dont think bad of anyone here, I'm just covering my bases so if something does come up, I can say I told you.

!bcbronies "OK sounds good. I've got it on my agenda to come down around 3:30 and watch it with you guys. The only problem is my Monday show deliveries are unpredictable and sometimes I find the weekends get backed up with work overflow. However I'll certainly do my best to attend and will give you an update later in the week if I think there will be a problem. I appreciate you keeping it as "special guest" and not making too much of a big deal. Hasbro is pretty precious about public appearances and I'd rather keep it on the down low."
