Eponine Posted November 20, 2010 Share Posted November 20, 2010 Were down the street at the London pub. Apologies to anyone who showed up and couldn't find us. It was much more busy at the Snug than last time. Next time we will be more organized, provide a phone number, and if we anticipate a lot of new people, we will start somewhere less crowded.

Streets of London was a good call considering how packed the Snug was. What happened to the rest? Did folks stop by the Snug and gave up when they didn't see a table or did folks just forget? Think it might've slipped under the radar without a clear organizer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Centrist Simon Steele Posted November 21, 2010 Author Share Posted November 21, 2010 Was good to hang again with Ep and real nice to meet QC.

Think it might've slipped under the radar without a clear organizer.Hey guys--I was wondering what happened. I got to the Snug after 7 maybe closer to 8 and could not locate anyone. It might make sense for some of us to swap numbers in the future. Even though I came from Fort Collins it wasn't a big deal though, my brother and I hung out and got drunk which we haven't done in awhile so that was fun. It was cool to see how well he knew his way around Denver and all the drinking holes. Fucking alcoholic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peterbound Posted November 21, 2010 Share Posted November 21, 2010 I showed up around 2000 hrs, the drive from Colo Spgs took longer than last time for some reason. Started looking for Ep or Jamie, found neither. I then drove home. I'm still up for something, so let me know if you want to get together in the future.

Jaime L Posted November 22, 2010 Share Posted November 22, 2010 Sorry to hear it guys. Sounds like we were already at Streets of London by the time you guys arrived. You both came from long distances so definitely a shame we all didn't meet up. Least we know how avoid this in the future. We should schedule a makeup event sometime in the next couple months. Anyone have any ideas or want to organize? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Walder Posted November 27, 2010 Share Posted November 27, 2010 I will spearhead organizing this if anyone is interested.I'm in if we play early in the week and call the team "Hot Pie!" There are venues that are awesome and venues to avoid.Yeah, this part bears some discussion. There are only two options on Sundays (The Goosetown and Jonesey's), but on Monday-Wednesday Denver is crawling with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it is hilarious.D'ya think they'd object to the implication that they, the QMs, are either lesser geeks than we are or the authors of yiff porn, or are you just picturing their outrage at having to read something so long?

T.D. Newton Posted November 29, 2010 Share Posted November 29, 2010 I hear long team names all the time. And at least it's not thri-kreen erotica. Bwuh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emilio gets cranky when your team name is longer than about 3 words, but he runs a good show. Others would just not like the insult. I like the simplicity of Hot Pie!, to tell you the gods honest truth. But I never stick to one team name for real long, anyway. I get bored.But seriously, if folks are interested, let me know and I'll start a BWB-GWD thread.Also, TD and I were talking and we think, given our natures here in Denver, we should start planning some GOT viewing parties for Spring, like, now.

peterbound Posted January 2, 2011 Share Posted January 2, 2011 Well, hope everyone had a great holiday season, but it's time again for you all to amuse me with your witty banter and book recommendations. Unfortunately the only person of interest that is going to be at the Tattered Cover is Roseanne Barr, and i can't see many folks turning out for that one. However, there is a little known, and much loved SFF Convention taking place down in my neck of the woods. I'd love to see some of you cats make it down. Not sure if Mr. Newton is going to make it as an author, or who is going to make it for that matter, but it's taking place downtown so if nothing else we can go get drunk and start some fights with some hipsters (actually not hipsters exist down here, but we can round up some army cats to tussle with)http://firstfridayfandom.org/cosine/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
