    California Convene

    Alright, it's about time we start talking about this.

    LD wants to do a Michigan meetup, so why not a California Gettogether for us west coasters?

    It has been talked among several FFR'ers of a meet up in California. Why California? Because Ontario Mall is the 2nd largest mall in the US and there are A LOT of people that could probably go and hangout at the gameworks there, and go see a movie, play DDR, yadda yadda...

    We need to start figuring out who would go to this, how many people we would get, where we would stay, and what arcades we would actually go to.

    As I am talking to Jewpin, one of the best places that came to mind was Ontario because it is so close to everywhere in South Cali.

    I don't know if we really need any hotel info or where people would stay, because I would imagine this would be just a weekend get-together that would be pretty simple to do...

    Maybe someone in the area can get some pics of Ontario Mall in Ontario, CA so we can show off how huge it is, and what there is there.

    So, I guess we need to start off by finding out who is interested? Only say if you really thing you will be able to go. Don't just say you would go to bandwagon. Also, post where you live, and we can see if this thing has a chance of happening.

    Personally... I live in Boise, ID, BUT, every summer I go to Cali to live with my dad for a while, and this summer it would be really cool if more than just Jewpin and I hung out... Know what I mean? Hanyways... POST...


    UPDATE 4/28

    The list has been updated a bit thanks to Jewpin, and I'll just put it here... This is still a VERY not-near-final list, but this is a closer look at who will be attending...

    Here is a little list of people that MIGHT be going... This list is nowhere near final, but these are the people that live in the west coast, and actually have a slight chance of going... Even if we lose a couple people from this list, it still looks pretty friggin' awesome to me!

    UPDATE 5/8
    Most likely Aug. 6th & 7th, (Sat. & Sun.)

    Zajac (Pat-a-rat-tat-tat, yo.)
    Jewpin (Zack)
    Cenright
    SpookG (Rob)
    DJShox (Austin)
    SionNekai (Sion)
    Sleeplessdragn (Louis)
    Aerogroove
    NightSonnett (Bethany)
    Snapps (ryan)
    Laharl (Casey)
    Psychic25
    Kagome (Jon)
    Feuergeist (Adam)
    DukAmok (Ryan)
    Tasuke (Mitch)

    Black = Hope to go
    Blue = Confirmed


    (names editted in by Spook)
    (colored by Cenright)
    If you would like to be added to the list, post in this thread that you will be able to go... And don't say that you would LIKE to go, especially if you live 1000+ miles away (Except for me... Cuz I'm planning this whole thing and I'm just so cool that way )...

    ~I would also like to thank some people that I haven't before, and they deserve the thanks for all the help so far in making this more possible than just Jewpin & myself hanging out all alone ~shudders~... Thanks a bunch Jewpin, Cenright, Snapps, & Spook! This meetup wouldn't have the 'oompf' that it has now if it weren't for all of you and others... ~

              Rancho Cucamonga is where all the cool cats hang out. I know sleeplessdragn
              is nearby and I live like a 5-10 minute drive from Ontario Mills. I think we should
              do this.

                Gasp, I live in WV. Where in VA do you live? Like what city?

                As for the meetup, there's almost no way I could make it to California.

                  I live in Palm Springs (well, near it at least). There really isnt anything to do here and it is usually hot as hell in the summer, so it wouldnt be a good meet up place.

                  Ontario Mills is about an hour and a half from where I live. I know Cenright lives fairly close too.

                  The only thing is I leave for Japan in the 7th of July and I will be there almost until the beginning of August.

                  Here is a map and directory of the Ontario Mills Mall: http://www.ontariomills.com/stellent...ir_map_pdf.pdf

                  It may not appear to be that big from the Directory, but it is.

                    Yeah, sure, I'll go. just give me a heads up so I can get the time off work.

                    Aerogroove lives in Garden Grove (right near disneyland), and NightSonnett comes to LA a lot, too. Probably could drag her down from Oregon for it (and then persuade her to drive..so I wouldn't have to..hahaha). Ragestar lives in Fresno, but I don't know if either really read the boards at all so I don't know if you know them. (they hang out in chat a lot) Whorli's family is out here(i think), but Mike is going to be all bitch and probably stay on the East coast..

                    All of Southern California is hot as hell in the summer Jewp. The average temperature where i live around that time is 100 degrees, + - 5-10.

                    I live in Chatsworth, which is part of the San Fernando Valley, about 25 minutes outside of downtown, btw. 15 minutes from UCLA, if that helps ground it.

                      I say New York for next year. Not too hot, probably has some good arcades. Though, it's pretty far away from those south east coasters.

                        Isnt Chatsworth where Charles Manson chilled with his homies?

                          The only problem with a Cali meetup is that Cali is like 4 times larger than Michigan. :P

                              Exactly. Damn NoCalers, with their "I drive on 101!" It's THE 101, you lame-ass Berkeleyites!

                              In any case, if a Cali Convention goes on, I will be sad. Because I'll more than likely still be on the East Coast.
