EDIT: It's been shifted to the 19th of December. Same plan, different day.
So you think you know Epic...
It is almost time dear Escaparinos. The 19th of December approaches much like the pure vibrating epic of a blistering guitar solo played by some guy with a socially unacceptable amount of hair and a keg.
The plan is relatively simple. We show up at Central Station at 9:30am. Hang around until everyone shows up then head for Darling Harbour. Same deal as last time for the morning activities. Laser Tag and Bowling[footnote]I think it'd be too expensive to organise Paintball and a pain in the arse for everyone to get to Newcastle for the Zombie Shuffle.[/footnote]. Will cost around $38 per person (two games Laser Tag, one game Bowling). There's a bar at the bowling alley if people wish to bring money for drinks. From there we can either go to Pancakes On The Rocks (not on the rocks) which I will actually book us in to this time so we get a table or to the food court in the same building, or to the Paddy's Markets food court which is next to the arcade.
Or we could wing it and make shit up as we go along.
From there an arcade or a net cafe is most likely to spread the gaming loves and as ever there will be much prancing around in a ridiculous manner and Epic. Lots and lots of Epic. Most true Epic is relatively spontaneous such as the kidnapping of Sir Buttersworth from the first Escapism. What happens this time.. we shall see.
Pictures will be taken at this event by the way and could someone please bring a video camera. I've always wanted to film Escapism and this is just another opportunity for any budding camerworkers.
In terms of transport we will be walking and/or using trains to get from one place to another. If people bring cars it's their choice to use them or not. Hell, might even car-pool it from Central to Darling Harbour. I'm not going to organise that one though. Accommodation for out-of-area people can be organised at any number of backpacker's lodges in the area. I suggest a web search for them as they can be from as little as $35 for a night if you book ahead.
This is the RSVP list from the previous thread where we collected ideas. If your situation has changed since that time please let me know. I'll need to lay bookings down for the laser tag and bowling, and the restaurant if we do wind up going there. Numbers are imperative and I will only count you if you say you're coming for sure on the basis that even the best of planning means a few of these people won't make it. There are likely to be spots open for the uncertain that way, and I've yet to see one of these places get picky when more than the given number turn up.
