Yes... everyone else seems to think the sky is about to fall in after that.

Laser tag was great! Pity I sucked at it and some stupid kids barged in on us who messed up the game. I wanted to shoot Lord Krunk and I couldn't because they/he kept on killing me!

Ha ha, sunny Aus is great! Although its overcast in Victoria at the moment...
Hah! Take some English export-strength cumulo nimbus!!

I did play a game once in London where the place had some real regulars, they even had their own packs. Which they had tweaked to not be at all sensitive to the frequencies emitted by anyone else's guns. It was me and my dad vs. these 4 regulars vs. a group of 8-or-so giggling tweenage girls.

Ugh.

Needless to say it was a walkover for the 4 guys. The bastards just walked around with drinks in hand taking shots at people.

It was fun tormenting the immensely poorly-skilled team, though.

No pancakes though, which makes me Sadjoe.

But I stole juice, which makes me Ultra again and nobody is the wiser.
Seriously... I'm still getting over the fact you aren't a guy. Its made me question everything I believe in.
And i'm still more ballsy than all of you combined. Ultraballsy.

Where is your god now?

EDIT: 10 messages this morning. I wonder what they could be? 'We won't be surprised, Ultrajoe' you said, 'We wont think of you any different' you said. Bugger your nonsense, I say.

First, my Gods in Valhalla, I converted to the Norse religion 10 years ago, it just ... made sense.
Secondly, I probably will think differently of you know. Something along the lines of UltraJosephine.

"Oh my god theres a cute girl on the internet! Maybe if I am her friend we can fall in love"

I remember the influx of friends I had when I was a girl a few months back. Hi-larious

I pointed out in my Escapism Vancouver '09 thread that it'd be best to try to arrange gatherings where people are willing to meet up. I don't think a massive "escapicon" would be possible given the massive geographic distribution of us.
Does that implicate that Escapism 2010 will be in Vancouver?
I should hope so, but later than April, because of the Olympics and whatnot.

I call shenanigans on UltraJoe. I submit that that is not, in fact, Ultrajoe's true appearance, but is actually Labyrinth's RL friend from the first Escapism (I can't recall her name atm).
Having been present at both Escapisms, I can tell you that it is assuredly not her friend from the previous Escapism (Erin, I think her name was).
The kids did rather spoil the Laser tag though, being as they a)ran around in a big group, b) being considerably shorter than an adult human, making them harder to twitch-shoot (shooting at their heads rather than their chests. And didn't accidentally blind any of them, dammit) and c)being camping sods. It got tempting to pistol whip them. Which would have been hilarious. Bowling was also fun, even if most of us were a bit rusty, as evidenced by the erratic scoring (and Ultrajoe and Labyrinth requiring the rails be put up for their go's to avoid constant gutterballs.)

Someone needs to remind me to bring my video camera... need videographic proof of the Joesephine

She was Erin. She was also very different in both features and personality. And yes, I suck at Bowling. Shhhh. Not my damn fault, I'd never played before.

Can we stop with the OMG 'UltraJoe is a girl!' stuff now? It's getting a bit ridiculous.

Oh, Ultra, sorry I couldn't call you back after you know...

I lost your number.

If you are actually serious this may be the funniest thing since... ever

An interesting concept, I'm going to run a little experiment now.

Why the hell can't I be 6 to 10 years older! Then I could go galavanting to the other side of the world, and meet total strangers I met on chat rooms.

... That sounded a little molesty...
You seem to forget labyrinth is only about a year older than us(I'm your age if you profile is to be believed). I really don't think that were to young. My problem is logistics, the US has way to many groupings of escapist, there would have to be simultaneous events in 20 different cities for it to actually work, I would know.
