Avid cosplayer and joyfully engaged. Oh, and a woman on the internet!! Recently turned 21 and about to enter my senior year as a psych major at Eastern University. Which, I know, isn't technically Fillydelphia, but it's close enough. Outside of the school year I live in Lancaster, PA.

@derpytails Umm... there's two places on the Gdoc for our pictures. One at the top and one with the shuttle info. I think it's more important for the shuttle info. Just thought I should point out the extra

@ponydude2143, right when I get back on you decide to sleep :P I'm so excited that everything is finalized! I'm going to start bidding on blind bags like crazy now. I know everyone will appreciate prizes that are difficult to come by. !phillybronies

I'll be at work/traveling to Allentown today and tomorrow. I don't think I'll be reachable on here for a while. You can try my google+ or gmail if needed. Or try to find me on Facebook.

@derpytails Noon is fine by me. Then again, I'm not the one who has to leave two hours before that to catch a train. I'm trying to remember who else has a long commute and how long it was. !phillybronies

@ponydude2143, glad you're okay. Eastern is having major issues, so I was worried. Power is out here and I'm freaking out a bit. I kinda have this intense fear of the dark. My brother is here with me, though. In other news, Oct 15 sounds good to me. That's what was proposed, right? !phillybronies

@derpytails, @step, that's so good to hear.

I evacuated back west to Lancaster. Please be okay, everypony! My maternal instincts are driving me nutty. My university was put in shelters and Philly just declared state of emergency. I'm so worried about you all!! Let me know you're okay ASAP! !phillybronies

Would anypony be interested in a white elephant activity? Everyone brings a pony thing in a box or brown paper bag (so you can't see it) and you sit in a circle. Someone tells a story with lots of "right" and "left"s in it and you pass it in that direction. The box you end up with in the end is yours. !phillybronies

Sorry about GChat, I was busy unpacking :P I'm really liking the baked goods idea! And the coffee shop is free use to anyone. We won't have exclusive access, but it's pretty empty on Saturdays since the shop itself is closed. !phillybronies

Attempted to put directions up on google docs. I'm not too good at adding images to docs... !phillybronies

@ponydude2143, my fiance has access to projectors. I'm going to get him to bring one down for us. I don't believe we have to worry about copywrite stuff, do we? !phillybronies

We can still hit up the mall for fun :) We just wouldn't be able to play games, do raffles, or watch videos or anything at the mall. But I am by no means against the mall. !phillybronies

Good news, everypony! Today was my first day back at work (check that location, moved back to Radnor!) and the very first thing my boss said to me was "Gretchen, I need help. My wife won't let me watch My Little Pony." So, I told him about our meet-up. I'm 90% sure we could use the coffee shop for our meet-up, free of charge. There are two nearby SEPTA stations. St. Davids is closer, but I'd rather @derpytails and everyone use Radnor, it's safer. I can shuttle people over. The coffee shop is closed on Saturdays, so I know it'll be empty. The lounge/dining area is always open. Plus, it's free. !phillybronies

If we're willing to look at non-mall meeting places with designated rooms, I'm a club president at Eastern and thus I have some sway in ways of room-acquisition. I have to look into rooms for my club this week anyway, I can ask about getting one for us. !phillybronies
-
@ponydude2143, excellent!! Thursday evening I think I'm going to go scope KoP out for potential meeting spots. The food plaza might be too loud, and a restaurant is just too much money for those of us traveling on tight wallets. I might hit up Exton on Friday, then. Anyone is welcome to join, it'll just involve wandering the mall. !phillybronies

UPDATES THUS FAR: King of Prussia has the most votes, I believe. We're looking a few months ahead to give ourselves a chance to organize and save up. We're looking to hold raffles at least. @rosewarrior has offered her artistic talent. I offer mine (example attached). I might even be able to get my hoovesies on a Comicon 2011 MLP poster... !phillybronies http://ur1.ca/4yi5z

@derpytails Ah, that makes sense, too. Let us know any accommodations that can make things go smoother. We want everypony to have a good time !phillybronies

Thinking about it, a lot of you are driving/taking the train a good while. Maybe one big formal meet-up would be better. Like @ponydude2143 said, we don't want things to get awkward, and that'll require structure and ice breakers. !phillybronies

@derpytails, I'm guessing you're a minor? Would it makes your parents feel better if they could look up an adult that will be there? I'm a 21-year-old psych student who helps run a youth ministry. If they need references, I can get 'em. I know how parents are.

Sorry I'm been away for a while and sorry for being all pushy. I was thinking that maybe we can have a little meet-and-greet meet-up just for a head count and involvement, then have a formal one with prizes, sponsors, videos, etc? I could probably get a fancy room with equipment from my university for a more formal meet-up and ask Bronies on ponychan for donations. !phillybronies

@rosewarrior we're trying to get a head count still. I represent at least myself and three others. And KoP stands for King of Prussia, it's a huge mall along 202. @derpytails I suppose, though I have no idea where that is. Hey, don't let me usurp you, it's your group! I just tend to take control sometimes. Don't let me, I suck at leading/planning. !phillybronies

@fnordly, thanks for the heads up, I was sneaking around my father-in-law to use his computer. He's a pony hater.

@iemika, sorry to bother, I can tell by your timeline that you're a busy bee, but would you be interested in a philly meet-up in the near future? We can do our best to try to fit your schedule if you let us know.
-
@rosewarrior, @ponydude2143, are either of you interested in an upcoming meet-up? We're still debating what month and mall works best for everypony. We're debating Exton vs. KoP for location. !phillybronies

@codieaaron oops, sorry about misspelling your name back there.

@stumperman07 nope. I wish I could claim such awesomeness.
Saturday, 20-Aug-11 11:44:37 UTC from web -
@derpytails We'll try planning further out, then. @cadieaaron Exton and KoP are kinda the same distance from Eddystone. Do you travel to one more than the other? !phillybronies

@mrdragon I know what you mean. This has happened twice before and it turned out to not be Hasbro. Hasbro has been good to us. Even if they are the ones taking them down, it's a sign of a full DVD release! Celebrate!

Any other !phillybronies want to chime in? Best place/time/date? If it's past the 25th (which is pretty much definite) I can help pick a few people up from the Radnor Septa station. That's zone 3.
