something that signifies their Escapist membership. It will make it SO much easier.

I have my Evil T-Shirt already ;)
I will wear a top hat.
Yup.
The one from Camden? :D

[sub]I am so getting a hat this year, I felt left out last year D:[/sub]
Yup. [small]Seeing as that is my only one.[/small]

Get a princess hat!
Like this one:



It'll totally suit you.
...I will destroy you O-o

*turns into mini hulk*
It was worth it.

A meetup with lots of people who don't know me and vice versa, with the only shared connection really being a website we all frequent.

If only I wasn't so damn anti social and could handle being around people without a shedload of alcohol in me -.-
Have a couple of cans on the way. I may end up doing that, if I come. I was put off by that attitude last year, and it seems I missed out on a good time.

I'm down as a maybe for this. I said that last year, but I'm more likely to come this time, after seeing what a good time everyone had then. Staying in London isn't a problem for me (I may be staying there around that time anyway) so it's just a matter of whether I can overcome my apprehension over meeting a whole bunch of people and actually have a good time.

I'll give it some thought and give a final decision sometime later.
Thats fine, if you want you can turn up at the station but not tell anyone what you look like, if you get scared just text that you can't make it and run! xD

(That was my backup plan last year >.> don't worry, lots of people get apprehensive beforehand)

Just spoken to my brother, can you put him down on the list? He needs to check with work but he's hoping to join us this year and would like a space booked in the hostel :D

And so now I'll be paying out three lots of money whenever needed...
Ouuuch Dx I hope you can afford that (mug your bro?)

But okies ^^
Actually, I'll give bro money for me and Xitel, and he can send the cheque for all 3. I don't have a chequebook >.<

If I make it to the station, I'd end up coming along anyway. Besides, I don't think my usual spying strategy will be too inconspicuous...


If I come, I'll probably be alright after an initial awkward phase, which hopefully won't just be me. But, it's an excuse to go to the Trocadero which I somehow have never been to (despite living in London for 12 years) so it should be worth it.

I'll probably be able to convince myself to come in a week or so.

It's the name of the centre where that Funland place is in.

And I've always wanted to do the newspaper thing too, but I'm too wary of getting suspicious looks, or shot by a gangster.

Yooooooooooooou!

YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOU!

Okay :D

[sub]Grrr, you won't shoot me in the face this year, oh noes D:<[/sub]
only if you've learnt to duck when trying to sneak up on me:p

Think cpt Oblivious has more to complain about after the number of times i shot him...hee hee
£5 for the first person to successfully do a Groin Shot without meaning too =P

Surely you should give it to the reciever.
And surely an aimed groin shot it better?

Oh and which station is it?

I have a distinct lack of Escapist/Assault rifle themed clothing. I think I'll just wear a Black Trilby with a pair of aviators, and make sure everyone knows this. I think I'll probably grow some form of beard as well. And maybe dye my hair blue. I'll have to think this over ...

Just do what I did last year. Look for the slightly uncomfortable gaggle of people who obviously don't know each other very well and ask if they're from the Escapist.

Darn!
It's going to be a long time before I can meet up with you guys. Curse my age!
Oh well, I'll make sure to bring myself along when I can, I'll go down the same route as Furbs and say consider me there in spirit.

Sounds like a lark but I'll have a 3 month old baby to take care of by then. Hope it's good fun for all of you though :D

As someone who lives in london I would certainly love to come, i dont know whether or not i'll be free on those dates though so it could be abit hit and miss. I might just try and stay in the loop to see what i can make it too, or maybe just show up, say hi and then disappear.

3. No worries, it's 6am now, I probably didn't answer those as detailed as I could've =P

If there are under18s going, then there should be a parental consent form. I don't know if you've covered this already sky, but you may or may not know that the UK has serious Child Protection Laws...
