smegma Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 I'd say I'm 90% sure I'll be there. As I told Alguien, I will let you guys have plenty of ADWD time to discuss without me around. Still haven't even cracked it yet. It does however, sit teasingly on my coffee table. Beckoning. I must be some kind of masochist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lady narcissa Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 I would definitely like to stop by - didn't know there was a Chicago group, but I only just recently made my way back to this board after reading ADwD.Time and place are good with me!Looking forward to meeting you both! alguien, smegma and I have the advantage of knowing what we each look like. But just so we know what we are looking out for...female? male?If we do end up getting a table, we will give the name "Martin" to the hostess. I'll also be checking this thread in case someone wants to post "I'm standing in the bar and I can't find you but I'm standing..." messages.

l'intello Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 I'm a 5'4" dark-haired woman, and I will probably be dressed sort of conspicuously and inappropriately fancy, because I'm going straight to a birthday party afterwards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ItIsKnown Posted August 6, 2011 Share Posted August 6, 2011 Looking forward to meeting you both! alguien, smegma and I have the advantage of knowing what we each look like. But just so we know what we are looking out for...female? male?I am female - about 5'5" with brown hair, will probably be wearing some big flashy earrings. Sorry, don't own a GoT T-shirt (yet)!

smegma Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 Nice meeting everyone, and of course seeing Lady N and alguien again! We will definitely have to talk about a marathon GOT showing at my place for those that don't have HBO (or a tv!), and of course I might be convinced to do some kind of Halloween thing - and hopefully I'll have read ADWD by then!!!

ItIsKnown Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 It was nice to meet you all and I look forward to getting together again sometime in the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greyjoy Rebellion Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 Totally awesome to meet all of you! I had a blast. It was really great to unabashedly geek out for a couple of hours about the series.The Halloween thing is a go, as far as rachel and I are concerned, if you all are still interested in what I proposed! It's just a matter of figuring the date. I should know this week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alguien Posted August 8, 2011 Share Posted August 8, 2011 Yeah, to echo everyone's sentiments, it was nice meeting you all! Had a great time talking over the series and the show. Hopefully we'll be able to do another meetup in the near future, whether it be a GoT show marathon or Halloween costume party in the fall! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lady narcissa Posted August 8, 2011 Share Posted August 8, 2011 I really enjoyed our meetup on Saturday! I'm glad we were able to work it out. I'm really looking forward to finally seeing the HBO series in a marathon viewing and I'm super excited about the potential GOT Halloween party.If anyone has any other ideas for other meetups - be it just meeting up for drinks or going to some author/book event or some other special event - feel free to post about it here. If you organize it, we will come... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

l'intello Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 I had a great time with all you fine folks! I meant it about supplying the mulled wine for the HBO view-a-thon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ItIsKnown Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 sounds fun - hopefully I'll be able to make it (friend wants to visit city from out of town around Halloween so we'll see what happens).If I see any cool events people might be interested in or have another idea in the meantime for a meetup, I'll let you know.

Greyjoy Rebellion Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 We are very excited! I hope you can make it, ItIsKnown. Your friend is welcome to come!Lady N, any suggestions you might have would be most welcome.Should I make a separate thread, or should we keep it here? I'm inclined to strongly suggest making a list and attempting to not have any duplicate costumes, but I don't know if that's too much work or spoiling the fun?

l'intello Posted August 11, 2011 Share Posted August 11, 2011 I think a list thread is a good idea as long as I'm not stuck with Zombie Catelyn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
