FA 10 Year Anniversary Party!

[Tbone]

So this coming year marks our 10 year anniversary! Wow, what a milestone! While things have been a bit quiet lately, I expect 2014 will be a big year as we get closer to the launch of the Oculus Rift and hopefully a juicy online game or two or three to go with it!

To celebrate our 10 year anniversary, I'd like to throw another FA get together in DC - the last one we had was when MxO shut down. We all have busy lives, which is why we wanted to try and plan some dates early. We're thinking sometime in April (my birthday is on the 28th, so maybe I can just throw one big party!).

Another reason to plan the date ahead of time is that Broin has promised if we can get him the date soon enough, he will be there. That's right. Meet Broin in person. I'm not sure anyone needs more incentive than that!

So respond if you're interested in making the trip! Also let me know what dates work for you in April/May/June. My place is larger than last time - I have about four couches. I also have a friend who can possibly get cheap hotel rooms close by. I'll check on that.

We may also hear about a consumer launch date for the Rift in January. I'm not expecting April for that, but who knows!

I really want to attend this, as far as dates I would just need to know the when and duration of the event so I can make arrangements.

Will be keeping an eye in this thread to see how things take shape.

Right now the last weekend in April is completely open for me. Thinking fly out thursday night or friday morning, fly back the next tuesday/wednesday? Longer? Shorter? Got crash space with your roomies or can we try to get a group rate on a nearby hotel?

Or hey, if anyone wants to drive near Texas on their way I can pitch in for gas money. I'll hit up Zephix and see if he wants to try and get down on this as well.

Color me interested.

*Checks finances*

There's... a strong possibility that I could be there...

The last weekend of April, or the first weekend of May, would be incredibly convenient.

Jesus christ, ten years already?

Jesus christ, ten years already?

I need this to happen in my life.

I just want to drink, talk about life, play some games, and have fun with friends.

Then I'm going to give Anamodiel a big sloppy REDACTED kiss.

Just let me know the date we pick and I should be able to attend with enough notice!

This.

So it looks like we'd possibly try somewhere around April 25th. My birthday is that Monday, the 28th. Assuming I still have the same job, I'd just try to get as many shifts covered that week as needed depending on how long of a party we want to have!

For those who may be traveling with family (or just want to shack up at my house), I can also put up 5-7 people with their own beds between 3 guest rooms and the rec room in the basement (up to 11 if people bring sleeping bags/cots -- did so just recently here for christmas, lots of fun) and there's access to 3 full bathrooms (well one is in master bedroom). I live about 30 minutes north of Tbone.

I insist on a bar-hop.

Applebees is the target, warp to zero and jump on contact!

It would be nice to see DC, hang out with the old gang and do another bar crawl.  I'm definitely interested.

Damn, son, we need to do some parties at your place! Though I guess you have a home for a "family" rather than for a house party...haha!

Party at Applebees

I think you mean CHILI'S

Bar-hop

Yes. LOTS of legit options here. I must see drunk Manic!

Well the basement is my man cave domain :-)
