It's a convention. We have an actual venue, with 7000 square feet of space just for us. We have guests Jayson Thiessen and Sethisto. We have almost 100 RSVPs already. This isn't just &quot;a meetup&quot;. It's THE meetup. Ask anypony who was at BroNYCon June. And this is going to be a good deal bigger and a LOT more awesome. I do plenty to promote other meetups. I maintain <a href="http://www.bronies.com/" title="http://www.bronies.com/" rel="nofollow external">www.bronies.com</a>, I encourage the formation of other meetup groups, I routinely pimp the new meetup groups on EquestriaDaily, and occasionally I even sponsor out-of-town groups monetarily. Without me, there would be three organised meetup groups (NYC, Portland and Seattle/Tacoma).
