Andy 60 Posted September 16, 2009 (edited) Okay, I know this is a bit early, but in February 2012 it will be GBs 10th birthday; and we are having a serious meet-up, or else! Can't say I haven't given enough notice... But where, is the main question? I accept that I'll probably have to trek all the way over to your side of the pond... So, east coast is good. This is kind of continued off from these threads: http://www.galacticbasic.net/forum/index.php?/topic/3239-discussion-a-gb-meet/ http://www.galacticbasic.net/forum/index.php?/topic/4102-why-are-we-waiting-for-celebration-five/ Edited September 16, 2009 by Andy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
James the Defender 7 Posted September 16, 2009 Philly is a fantastic town for meeting. New York is okay, but scary. If you wanted to wait till summer, the Jersey Shore is considered one of the best vacation spots in the US. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Andy 60 Posted September 16, 2009 Doesn't that mean it will be really busy and more expensive? :p Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
James the Defender 7 Posted September 16, 2009 Yeah, but if anyone wanted to swim they could :p Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mara 29 Posted September 16, 2009 We all know G.R. is the best city in the country, so, yeah. :p Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Princess 35 Posted September 16, 2009 :roll: Okay, we all know that we're all going to want it to be somewhere close to where we each live, so I say that we try to pick a central location Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mara 29 Posted September 16, 2009 Chicago is pretty central. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Andy 60 Posted September 17, 2009 And is also the worst airport in the world ever. Apart from Charles de Gaulle :p Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Radioactive Isotope 29 Posted September 17, 2009 Kentucky :p Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheUnknown 39 Posted September 17, 2009 If we're looking for central locations, what about St. Louis? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ender 8 Posted September 17, 2009 Philly is a fantastic town for meeting. New York is okay, but scary. If you wanted to wait till summer, the Jersey Shore is considered one of the best vacation spots in the US. What is it with you and New York? Did someone look at you funny once when you were small? And you're suggesting JERSEY as a less-scary place than New York? And is also the worst airport in the world ever. Apart from Charles de Gaulle You've obviously never been through JFK. :p Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Andy 60 Posted September 17, 2009 Have you ever been through Charles de Gaulle? lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Radioactive Isotope 29 Posted September 17, 2009 Chicago O'Hare is pretty bad, too. last time i flew through there they changed my gate three times in an hour. of course, none of them were close to each other. the ONLY saving grace was the fact there is a Macaroni Grill. yum!

Ender 8 Posted September 17, 2009 (edited) Have you ever been through Charles de Gaulle? lol That I have, and it is TRULY miserable. Nowhere beats it, but JFK is a close second. Edited September 17, 2009 by Ender Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Uncle Du 22 Posted September 17, 2009 I second Unknown with St. Louis, it's a really nice city, as long as you don't venture out of certain areas. The Arch is really cool, it's definitely something you should do before you die. And if you wanted to swim, the Mississippi River is right there. ;) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And you're suggesting JERSEY as a less-scary place than New York? Southern New Jersey is. I can't stand cities, but I know to be a part of this, I'll have to go to a city. I just want to avoid the largest city in the world. I absolutely abhor cities. Even going into Philly I cringe. It's better than NYC, but only marginally. I am, and always will be, a country boy. I only like Philly for meeting because of it's rich history. Edited September 17, 2009 by James the Defender Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bad furday 57 Posted September 17, 2009 I'm going to be different and say please, not Scranton! *randomly throws one out there* San Francisco! But in seriousness, I agree that a central location would be most fair to everyone. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mara 29 Posted September 17, 2009 And is also the worst airport in the world ever. Apart from Charles de Gaulle I wasn't at the airport. Anyway, technically the central location of the continental U.S. is Kansas. ;) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
