I'd need to know the specific date(s) and then I could plan according to that. This is because I am in the military and must "ask" if I can "leave" my place of "work" in order to go anywhere for an extended period of time. It's like vacation, only you can get denied going so therefore it's called "leave of absence" in the military or leave for short.~Danimal

Out of curiosity, is an American meet up likely to get more turn out than on another continent? Mainland Europe for example.

I agree onthis.
Remember most players are from Europe, and MA is from Sweden (maybe we can get them to arrange/join us if we do it in skandinavia/europe?)
Get them drunk and spill out secrets! :silly2:

But yeah... I'm up for anything anywhere if the date and stuff matches my vacation plans.

England next year would be good.

"late summer 2015" is perfect.

I'd like to see it in Europe as well, as unfortunately traveling to CA/NV would significantly shorten my budget for anything else.

Sorry that feature has been bugged for this specific location for years

only 2 hours from me by car, and I grew up near lake tahoe - if this comes to be, I may just make it :thumbup:

Lets call it Friday Saturday Sunday as a core time frame August 7,8 and 9th. I'm sure some will linger a bit longer especially if its a long trip out for them

will add to OP

Three days? Humm.. I'm usually taking longer leave blocks than that. 15 days or so. 3 days shouldn't be a problem especially if it is in August. Granted I'm not overseas in August of next year again then I could go probably.

so Eastern US is out of the question then... damn. Then again why would anybody please a lil noob like me. Smoke one for me would ya? :smoke:

Sunsout Gunsout · Aug 28, 2014

I would do it, but only if:

1. Some of you are drunken degenerate partiers; and
2. It is in US, as intercontinental flights restrict the amount of drugs in my inventory; or
3. It is overseas, but someone local can replenish said inventory when I land.

Also, if there are simultaneous ones, if someone has the gear, we can set up video calls between the parties projected onto a big screen so we feel like were all in the same room

There's no more interest in this??

Depending on how many people show up and what all we do I may throw in more/less into the "pot" for a yacht etc.. It's really hard to say how much I'll throw in if there isn't a total price and total number of people yet. :/

Edit: There's 6 people ready/willing to go out of the 2366 people that have viewed this topic... that's less than .2% of the people that have viewed the topic. At this rate we'd be lucky to have 12 by the time we reach 5k views...

hehe, is why I figured a nice long timeline would be necessary to get enough on board, lets keep it bumped up, been talking in game with quite a few folks as well. Is 6 months advance notice enough for you to get your leave?

Yes, 6 months is plenty and just the right amount of time to try and request it!

Shortest, 3 months but I don't like to try and ask so close because it takes FOREVER to get approved.

But they would be the most fun 12 to hang around with I bet! :laugh:

Post about a meet up in 12 months time, and people will chew it over and get back to you in 9 months time, typically.

My suggestion, let this thread run for a bit then do a poll most favoured country maybe?
