Title: GW Meet Maryland 2005 Pics (56k warning)
Post by: xanque on September 27, 2005, 02:03:20 am
Today was the first GW meet in Frederick Maryland, hosted by me, Xanqui.  It wasn't a very long meeting, but everyone who participated had a blast.  I stocked up on beer just for the occassion, but I was surprised to see that I had pretty much the same amount in the end as I did in the beginning.(http://www.whahay.net/pubaccess/gwmeet1.jpg)I got several different brands because I didn't know what anyone wanted.  Actually, I only got all these different brands because it was all I could grab before the store manager realized I wasn't 21.  But we had beer, and that was all that mattered.(http://www.whahay.net/pubaccess/gwmeet2.jpg)I showed up at around 8:00 PM and was greeted by everyone in the meet.  I left the door unlocked since I was going to be running a little late.  I forget who took this picture.  I was pleased to see that they hadn't already wrecked my house, but I trusted everyone who was coming.(http://www.whahay.net/pubaccess/gwmeet3.jpg)The first thing we did was get online with our computers (using the wireless network) and talk to people on IRC about the meet.  You might have been in IRC when this all happened.(http://www.whahay.net/pubaccess/gwmeet4.jpg)The games got scattered all over the floor like immediately.  My room was spotless before everyone showed up, but I didn't mind all my games on the floor.  The first game we played was Mercenaries, selected by me because I was hosting this.  The goal was to kill as many people as possible in under five minutes.  I won, with 623 kills.  I got lucky though, because this massive army surrounded me right at the start.(http://www.whahay.net/pubaccess/gwmeet5.jpg)This is me winning.  Nobody even came close to my final score.(http://www.whahay.net/pubaccess/gwmeet6.jpg)Following the game, we started trashing the place, just for the sake of trashing it.  I was going to be cleaning it up anyway, so why the hell not?  I ended up hitting the table next to my PC and papers went flying everywhere.  I was a bit pissed off, because they were my psychology notes that I spent about 5 months gathering.  But no harm done, really.(http://www.whahay.net/pubaccess/gwmeet7.jpg)Everyone left without pitching in to help clean up.  My room is still a mess.  I don't recommend anyone host a GW meet simply because Internet friends are the messiest fucking friends in the world.  Everyone had a great time.  We laughed, we cried of loneliness, and we did some serious gaming.  GW meets are hella fun, especially when you get a lot of people in on it.  This was the first one I've ever been to, and I highly recommend any loyal GWer to attend one.  I guarantee you will meet some very interesting people you thought you knew, but really didn't.

Just because half of you are a bunch of narcistic self righteous faggots, doesn't means that making fun of yourself sometimes is pathetic.Specially, this is for those of you who are really pathetic (hello truth).Besides, this is pretty funny!

Marmot, for the sake of keeping this topic flame-free, please edit out your insults.  It doesn't make your argument any more valid.

Sorry, it was really short notice.  We had very little time to plan it because we wanted it on this specific day since Robots is coming out on DVD tomorrow and it was kind of a celebration.  We've been waiting a long time folks, but only an hour and a half remain!

I was wearing it wrong in these pictures, I know.  I usually wear it off to the side, but the meet was so hectic that I didn't notice it was wrong until I was uploading the pictures.  Yes, I do wear a beret, always.I'm not sure when the next meet will be, but it will be soon, if I have it.  The other members of GW at the meet took the pictures, duh.

you guys think this was a joke but i went and it was great.  we played mercenaries and xanqui won as soon as the lucas arts logo poped up.  mercenaries isn't even made by lucas arts.  it was that badass.  He also managed to grab random numbers of different typs of beer and payed and ran out the door before the clerk had a chance to ID him; and despite what he said the beer was all gone and we were eventually naked.
