Right, I thought I'd do a push to get this to actually happen.
Time?
26th-28th of July
Signups close 1st of July at midnight, gametime.
Place?
Malmö - Sweden
Activities?
TBA, Orcing around to be expected though. I was thinking of having something every day at least, and leave room for socializing. (If the Weather is good, we should go to the beach!)
How to get here?
If you're flying, either Copenhagen Airport (Kastrup) or Malmö Airport (Sturup) are possibilities, CPH airport is the bigger one, and got more of the low fare companies. From there it's a 15 minute train ride into Malmö. From Malmö Airport it's a little longer by bus.
Sleeping Space?
I can offer a couch, and floorspace. For a total of five orcs. It'll be a bit of a squeeze. But that's to be expected (after all, we're orcs, no?). Otherwise, there's plenty of hotels and such in the area. Perhaps there's even other orcs nearby, willing to offer space on the floor or a couch?
I'll post more information as I recieve questions, or think of it. Questions can be posted here. PMed, asked ingame. Or over Skype (Skype ID: Ionovon)
Don't miss this excellent chance to meet the people behind the orcs!
Cancelled due to no signups.
Har, a chance for redemption at last time's failure at Mario Kart (among other things). I'll definitely see what I can do!
Yeah, you truly disgraced the orcs, losing to Thieves ;)
Nop, not gonna be able to make that unless I suddenly win a large sum of money... SGE meet is one week before this in London, and the week after I have a fantasy fair here in the Netherlands, which is expensive too. :3 So I'll have to pass!
I honestly don't have money for it, i'm trying to save up for an appartment so i can finally move out, so i don't really have the cash for trips for the long ahead future.
I'd love to come, but unfortunatley, I'll be working at sea those days.
Don't think I'd be able to make it... I'm trying to save up money just now so I can make it to Canada to be the video guy for a friends wedding in June's first week. So, financially speaking I wouldn't be able to make it to Sweden.
If enough people come, I will :> Live in sweden so
I'd be interested if enough orcs show. And I'd probably be able to carry Tzarket along tho he's a newbie in the guild. Malmö by train is zero problemo
If enough orcs show up I may come also. I live in Sweden but almost at the capital.

I'd like any signups at july 1st, before midnight gametime, so I have the chance to plan, or even cancel it if noone is able to make it.
1st july? That I can do
Less then two weeks left to the deadline for signing up, and still no signups.
Unless things change, it looks like it'll be cancelled.
Cancelled due to noone coming.
The timing wasn't the best I suppose. Myself have exactly zero monies. I am interested, just not right now.
Just recently i have gotten abit of money! So if everyone is up for it, i'd like to host it in Denmark, Ry. I still have a few things to work out but i will be able to provide food and i will rent a campsite for us, where i'll drive out before-hand set up tents with some help from one of you perhaps! It will only last a couple of days, perhaps an extended weekend? As for activities, bring your bathing cloths because the area we will be going to has an amazing lake, amazing nature in general absolutely a -perfect- place for a few orcs to settle down and grumble! But go ahead and google "Denmark, ry". So the following is more or less settled: Shelter, (i pray to spirits the wheather will be nice!) Food, beer.. obviouse as well as bacon..
I'm not exactly sure about how people should get here, i've been talking abit with emma about taking the boat from Gothenburg to Frederikshavn. So thats most of you swedes, settled. As for everyone else, i know theres colourline from Norway.
Anyway! If everyone is up for it, the tricky part is just finding a day i suppose!
As for activities, i plan on having us row out there depending on how people think about that idea, otherwise we can easily drive out there, as its honestly around 5 mins away from where i live! So its up to you, i can be ready within a day or twos notice, so pull the trigger everyone. <3
OH my. hmmm. Well it does depend on money situation. Shouldn't be too expensive to (qq) fly to Denmark and back but it would have to be on a weekend. And definately cannot make it between 2.8. - 17.8. since I'm gonna be in Germany at that time and also have to squeeze a cousin's confirmation church.. thing whatever it's called celebration there. Otherwice I can make room for it.
Just so I can bring Grogona a pineapple. :P
the pineapple for grogona is a must... I think everyone should bring him one... just as big as we think he deserves ;)
I'd like to come but it depends on how much it will cost and my health at the time but I sure would try :) Don't like to travel alone though due to said health ^^
23-25 of august would be okay for me. :) Payday then too.
23. - 25. Would be the earliest fitting for me. I am going to work until mid-August, and the 19th, it's back to studies. =P
Which would be the closest airport, by the way? I am not particularly tempted to either head down to southern Norway to take the boat, nor am I too tempted to take the long boattrip from Bergen to Denmark. :P And I think a plany would actually be cheaper.
23-25 seems to be a good day for me as well! So everyone that intends on coming? Could everyone that intends on coming. check that date?
Also another few things, the price per night on the camping site is 4 euros, i'd honestly pay it myself, but since i'll be providing food and beer, i'd say everyone could be talked into paying that? I will give the bank numbers thingies if we actually get this going! Otherwise i will trust you enough to do it after you are all home. As for trains, and planes, there is an airport in "Aarhus/Ã...rhus" which is 30 mins by train from where i live. Otherwise we can arrange for a meet there and i will guide you to the station where we will go from there.
23-25th sounds very workable for me, if you'll have me. As a non-Scandinavian, I may need additional help with directions and such, however.
Will still be a no go for me, since I still got no money to do anything, and a lot of work in August!
Well, i'm hoping this won't be the last meeting we'll have, of course!!
As a side note! Because i need to find tents, pay for food, all that fun stuff. I'm going to make a dead-line which will be the 9th of august. I may be able to make an excection here and there, but don't count on it. I just want to be prepared, get food, beer and all that.
Right. So I need to cancel the thing on my part. Happens to be so that my bf's grandmother passed away last night and the funeral is held that same weekend the meet would be. I hope I can attend the next meeting then. :)
Thats understandable! I hope to see you at the next meet then!
The 9th is slowly creeping up on us! If you can't come, please say so! It will make my life -ALOT- easier. <3
I cant come :(
Aright everyone! The time is near so i'm more or less preparing for the havoc you will likely- Will, make. And so, activities crossed my mind!
So far i'm bringing:
A few deck of cards.
A football, cause.. why not..
So if you got any ideas! Write em here, so we won't get bored! And bring your cameras! We needz them drunk pics! o0
Bring a few board games I reckon. Then we can always hit the town for a movie, go to the pub, restuarant. Im sure we can find plenty to do for 2 days.
As Is aid earlier - We must play spin the Bottle.
It -must- be done!
90% That Im comming!
On my end, flights are booked and trains are scouted (albeit not booked as the ticket site was in Danish only, and my conversational German hardly did me any favors). I'll dot the i's and cross the t's whenever I'm back from America on the 21st, and will hopefully see everyone there should plans not change.
Tage afsked!
Tag afsked! Aright, i hope we'll see you there. :)
Aright! Times up! So its time for me to prepare and also a question for you guys! I mean, we can just go nuts and just buy food when you get here, -or- you can say here, if you've got any ideas of what we should eat? We can make it over fire, or i can prepare it at home, so forth! :)
over fire I'd say :) camping and all you know ;) as someone pointed out earlier we can go to a restaurant or something some day too :) but some meat and vegetables wrapped in bacon and put it all on the grill is good food *nods*
We had abit bad weather today, so disregard that! >.<
This is the place i want us to camp at! :)
Looks fantastic! Though Im a bit worried about the man-eating holes in the area, did that dogs owner fall down into one at the last picture? D:
While Im at it, what will we be doing about sleeping stuff? Tents, bringing our own etc. or?
My idea for food.
Friday: we go to a restaurant since we have all been traveling and might not feel like makeing food of any kind. we go back to camp and drink some ;)
Saturday: Grog have fixed shit for breakfast, we eat it. We go to store and buy stuff for evening firefun. we eat dinner, we drink some more and have fun.
Sunday: we obviously bought some breakfast food as well and now eats it! We don't drink more cause we are going home :P
That sounds like an idea to me, Goru!
As for tents, i've taken care of them, i'm sitting up a tent that can easily hold 10-12 people, from what i've heard
Sorry, rann out of phone- credit the other day and Only just charged it! Ill be online again tomorrow night!
