Background information

So Orbiting and I suck for not making it to Mini-Mo-Meet last weekend. Too much stuff going on, too broke, etc. Sad pandas all around.

BUT.

Instead of trying to get a weekend where we can travel out of town, what if we took the hosting 'burden' off of MeMe and her clan and had something at our place?

We're thinking of May/June 2009, though that conflicts with one of the proposed months for Yos/Malyss' Beach Bash.

Kansas City, which means a closer/bigger airport than Springfield (no offense, MeMe!). Crash space would be... not ideal, but we have enough blankets and floors for people if they want to.

Flayming Man is now on the wiki

, including games that will be present and rules for behavior

(outside of games, at least)

mith and Michelle
Thesp/kristocker
petroleumjelly (needs to be picked up at MCI Thurs. night)
Phoebus (flying in Thursday to Olathe, may need a ride to the house)
PookyTheMagicalBear
Fletcher, mlaker, spork76
MeMe and Atticus (90%)
Thestatusquo and Elias_the_thief (50%, and maybe w/Ether and Sens)
Mastermind of Sin +1 (50%, willing to split gas and help drive for anyone coming from Indiana/Ohio/Illinois/Kentucky, or the Northeast)
Glork? (would like to carpool from OH)
Alabaska J?
IH?
sam.samhorn (only if family doesn't come to town)
Mr_Gnome_It_All (would need a ride from the Twin Cities)
inHimshallibe and rajrhcpfreak? (slim chance if the stars align)

1.) I would certainly come if I can! Whether or not that's possible or at all likely is yet to be seen -- a lot will depend on where my life's chips fall, and if I have any indication from my past they could fall just about anywhere at this point.

2.) That is a terrible name. You'll firstly have to include your name if possible, as precedent has been set in that regard (jeepfest, MeMeMeet, Mini-Mo-Meet, Thespival, starkadium, Yos' Beach Bam, Tallywhack).

Suggestions? I can only think of Mindflayers. Flayme of Passion? Flayming Man? You might be able to use a form of WiKiD instead. Dunno.

3.) No real suggestions for dates.

Flayming Man sounds like a good name.

Posted: **Wed Aug 20, 2008 8:53 am**

Flayming Man is an AWESOME name.

Y'know, one of these days I'm gonna have to get my act together and figure out a way to hop over to the US one summer and turn up to one of these meets.

EDIT: Depending on calendar, MayFlay?

Flayming Man already won the thread.

And, I would definitely be interested, though whether or not I could come would depend on where I'm working, whether I have vacation time, etc. I know (mid-to-late) June would be better, just on the "Michelle will be out of school" basis.

Don't Flayke!

Posted: **Thu Aug 21, 2008 3:25 am**

I would do my best to come as well.

mith sez Flayming Man; plus, I have to make it up to PJ somehow for missing him last weekend *bite*, and it was his idea.

Thesp, you guys put any more thoughts into Beach Bash? If I take June, will you take August 2009?

I'm going to try to make both if I can - we'll see how it goes.

I thought the idea was to think of a name that doesn't make people cringe...

Without discussing it with anyone here, I'm pretty sure the Springfield contingent could be there (MeMe, Dirge, Atticus, Fletcher, mlaker, spork76) -- but the last three will be just out of high school, so I can't be 100% about them.

Posted: **Thu Aug 21, 2008 1:40 pm**

I'm definitely interested in coming. I'll have to see how I could get there though.

Posted: **Thu Aug 21, 2008 2:59 pm**

I live about 35 miles from KC, so I'll probably go if I'm still at this site, I guess. I mean, living that close, I'd have to think of a good reason not to.

-O- agreed with Flayming Man, and said we probably have enough expertise in setting stuff on fire to burn a Tiger in effigy, or something.

Started an attendee list in the first post. At this point I'm leaning toward

June 12-14 or

June 26-28, with a day or two optional on either end. The latter set of dates might be too close to 4th of July, though.

...or would people WANT to come on the weekend of the 4th? Fireworks are illegal in KCMO, though, so it wouldn't be

much of

that sort of party.

If I don't get enough money for Tallython /in.

Posted: **Fri Aug 22, 2008 6:04 am**

I'm thinking about it. It's very tempting. June would be better for me.

Posted: **Fri Aug 22, 2008 6:11 am**

Sorry, /out.

Posted: **Fri Aug 22, 2008 7:27 am**

Here's the thing: I'm in class till june 7th.

Posted: **Fri Aug 22, 2008 8:27 am**

Nothing so early as that. June 26-28, or July 3-5, are what I'm thinking right now.
