I just heard that there are no anime clubs here, now that I started to get serious about anime/manga.
I would like to know if there are interested parties to meeting and discussing such.
I have Sunday and Monday nights off. So far, may change to Fridays, Saturdays in August.
Part of why I would like to do this, is this upcoming Kumoricon will be my first con, of anything, and I would like to get to know some people before I show up in Portland. It may also help me sound more knowledgeable about more subjects than what I have already actually seen/read.
Maybe we could have a baseball game of subs vs. dubs? lol

Once I clean up and reorganize my shop I’m going to start D&D & Board games here again and was thinking of having anime and samurai movie viewings too. It's a few more weeks/months away as it is a total mess and it's dependant on getting a storage loft and sewing loft built just to make room, as now there are 2-foot wide paths around the place. Of course if any one knows of heavy timber for cheap or free to haul away it will make it go faster. Not that any one in town would want to use my sewing loft or some messy creation station space

Gee, if you want I can throw stuff around haphazardly and you can run around trying to catch it all before it hits the ground. It will be your own true I Love Lucy moment in time! HA!
-
I'd be game if timing worked with me scheduel which is basically not tuesday - thursday and you have a deal. And hell, if we get enough interest I may be willing (someone kill me now before I do too much) be willing to restart TUNAC in the fall.

Right now for me, Sundays and Mondays are all the choice I have. I work evenings, and those two are my days off.
jaybug39@yahoo.com
895-5095, or call here at work 346-2215 if you would like to get together. I really don't know what we need to have to make this something people would want to go to. I guees we could meet at my house in Creswell, unless someone has better ideas.

were you in TUNAC about 6 months before the first K con. I was going for about 6 months Angelic Layer, Initial Racer D then my work or school times changed and i did not have thurseday night free.
So if I clean up my shop and have a Seven Samurai/Princess Monoke night 3 peaple will show up (after we can play with plastic ninja army men)
-
Ok, how's this, bring DVD(s) that you would like to show, and come to my house this Sunday evening the 11th June 2006?
I'll make dinner, and have some refreshing refreshments. Don't expect Japanese food, I am not good enough in making those presentations. But do let me know if you have dietary requirements.
If nothing else, this should get me motivated to really clean the house. I hope you aren't allergic to cats.
-
As no one has RSVP'ed by now, and the fact that I will be working until 3am, another fine 12 hour day, I won't be hosting jack tomorrow.
Have Fun

So whats going on with the Anime Clubs or groups in Eugene.
Is the old TUNAC crew still meeting at the Bowling Ally or at there homes. What is the contact info again for the secret group of the old TUNAC core members, I had it on a napkin but then I had a maple doughnut.
Any one having anime parties comming up, what happned to Fate Ruin's parties
Any want to watch anime and play with costume stuff in a cold wearhouse building full of leather.
If TUNAC does not reform. Whats the chance the old Gaurd could help some kids on campus with TUNAC:TNG
Lets get something going at least a few times a year. In a few more weeks i'll have a lot more space (if my friend ever comes by with a truck to the dump)
And bring your aunts
-
I guess no one around here wants to do anything. Now the question is, are the ageists? Or what other kind of elitists are they?
Have you got your work site cleaned up yet? do you have something bigger than a 13" B&W TV? Otherwise, what do we do, go bowling? Visit Babysugarbear at work?
-
I have sort of cleaned up. I moved some furniture around and built more shelves and I need to finish a bit more then will some how get rid of all those stacks of wood for shelf building. I was ready to do it all months ago but some of it has been waiting for certain people who say they will be over to help build shelves “next week” and it’s worth he wait because they know what they are doing but never do come over. Or waiting for weeks for some one who will make a dump run or even take stuff 3 blocks to Goodwill.
Going to bring down a bigger TV and get a cheapo VCR and maybe DVD player
-
I think creating a club around here would be cool....it just needs to not be at someone's house for the moment.. unless there is an female adult there... i mean cause im under 18 ... well thats if you would like to have me come *waves* Jay don't forget to come visit me at the movies 12 and buy some popcorn.. help pay for my wages XD
-
Yes by all means if we have anime meetings at my place bring adult women as many as you can find. Ohh Movies 12 I have not gone in months and some times I see nerdy looking ladies in the Ticket Booth/Display case
-
of course you would want women there :P and we would be like "Where did Vondan and those otaku women go?" *funny noises from another room* "uhhhh wtf?"
yes yes thats it XD JK JK JK.... anyway... I am a consessionist there so come buy popcorn from me
-
Why don't we all go see a movie at babysugarbear's work? Whenever she is working.
I have Friday's and Saturday's off now.
-
most all my evenings are free after 6PM except the odd night like tonight when I went to a Astonamy Club meeting. Lets keep an out for what playing at movies 12

-
Hey Vondan, will you take the two dollars I owe you in popcorn?
So I wonder if babysugarbear is working the Friday or Saturday?
-
I am currently (shooting myself in the foot) working on trying to get TUNAC restarted. If any of yas are UofO students or nearby when would you like meeting?
Furthermore UofO prof Miyao is running a Japanese Cinema night open to the public Thursdays at 7pm on campus in Lillis 182.

I sent you a PM about some new kids at U of O who were asking if I knew about any anime clubs on campus.
Hmmmmm I used to go to a lot of the free movies at the U of O in the foreign language building and once in CHAPMAN HALL. Come to think of it that was a reason I did not go to TUNAC a lot it was also on Thursdays at 7.00. One time at band camp.. oh wait no one time on the bus on the way to the U of O. I spied an asian woman (WOMAN a bit older then the college GIRLS) dressed all mousey with glasses with her nose in a book (thats the best way to get my attention) so I sneaked an oogle over the top of my book and was wondering if she wants to go see a free samurai movie and get Ice cream but I figured she had more nerdilichious things to do. Then I kicked around the campus area for an hour before the free movie. I walk in the room at 7:00 and not only was the time in the paper wrong and I walked in on a class but the teacher was the one I had Oogled.

Nyco27,
I PMed Vondan a week or so ago about anime clubs on campus. I didn't know you were interested in starting one up. I'm a freshman, so I don't know much about these things but I am always interested in helping out and meeting fellow anime junkies. =)

yes I sent her a note with your PM. So your job is to gather an army of Anime fans so she can restart the group as an offcial U of O club. Keep an eye out for any one with an Anme T Shirt or bag (except Helo Kitty that has crossed over into mainstream and pepale who dont know about anime have HK stuff) And dont forget Emerald City comics has the largest selection of anime in the city and the manager is the inpseration for the comic guy on the simpsons.
-
I've talked to Prof. Steven Brown and he's agreed to be our advisor now I just have to get the old chaters and such from Beau or from the UofO - whichever ends up being faster and I'll let you all know from there.

OMG

Oh, by the way, thanks for the movie night recomendation. I checked it out yesterday, very fun, very informative.
-
Hey Vondan, will you take the two dollars I owe you in popcorn?
So I wonder if babysugarbear is working the Friday or Saturday?
Yes we need to know wha day do we have the TUNMC meetup at movies 12. If only some one would tell us what day, if only the sugar smacks bear would get one of his kids to tell us.
-

-
well, after reading all that i have read i have 2 questions.
what city is it in?
and
what movie theater is it?
-
Like the thread title indicates it's the Eugene/Springfield/Gleenwood tri city area. The theater is called 'Movies 12' the old 12 screen multyplex in Gateway mall that was turned into a bargin theater (All shows $1.50 0r less) after 'Cinema 17' the 17 screen multyplex opened at the other end of the mall (cinemark is so creative with the names)
does Longview still have all those hills of volcanic ashes next to the train station
-
Ok prices go as follows...
Mondays- Family night... (three or more people go to a movie its 50 cents a person)
Wednesdays- Dollar night... (everybody gets in for a dollar a person)
Tuesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday- Regualar $1.50 nights
(but hey its cheap right?)
And don't complain about prices for drinks and popcorn.. I hear enough of that and thats how we make our money... otherwise there will be no discount theater and your tickets would be 20+ dollars per person...think about it that way before complaining.... ty XD
-

Hmm, that makes sense I guess. I remember in Japan paying over $10 for one movie ticket and I'm thankful we don't have to pay that.
Anyway...
@ babysugarbear28
I didn't know you where in the Eugene/Springfield area.
-
She's a Pleasant Hillbilly! Or a Pleasant Hill Billy? How can that be, she's a girl? Pleasant Hill Nanny? She's pleasant at any rate!
So sugar bear, you aren't working Friday? My day off. I was going to take my girlfriend to see the new Robin Williams flick. But maybe I can trick her into meeting a bunch of otaku's. heh heh heh
-
I find out Tuesdays what my shedual for the week will be... I will update you guys when i get it.. hopefully they will give me some time off...my legs have been killing me lately.... 26+ hours of work a week after years of lazyness gives ya shin splints real fast... sucks big time... alright well i gotta get some sleep... gnight peeps...
-
@ vondan> um...... O.o i dunno? i highly dought it but then again i havn't been to the train station forever so i dunno!
and how far away is that from longview? lol sorry i have the worst maps ever. like i just found out 2 years ago that vancouver was more northern than portland XP
-
The Eugene/Springfield/Gleenwood tri city area is about 2 hours or 110 miles south of portland.
After the next Kumoricon meeting In eugene (november or December) there will be cookies and cosplay & prop project brainstorming at Von Dan's
Von "Now I have to clean up the shop or I will look like a Lier and Stupid(er)" Dan
-
so..........that's like 4 hours away from me!!!
sorry but i can't go! XP
-
By train? That could be even longer. It should only take about 2 1/2 hours driving. Unless you hit Portland area traffic, which runs from 5am to 10 am and 3 pm 'til whenever. I guess. I don't have to do that. Only when I visit my family up that a way.
I hope Baby Sugar Bear posts tonight, after she finds out when she works. "Cause if she ain't working, I'm gonna go see the new Robin Williams movie.
-
well, no. you see, i live about 2 hours NORTH of portland......so.........yea.
-
I thought you said Longview, not Centralia?

Rush hour here doesn't start that early. The highways are quite clear at 5 AM!
-
Blah blah blah... XD... okies so I have my hours people... and if no one visits me this weekend im gonna be crushed... Ok anyway... Saturday 6pm-11:30pm, Sunday 2-6pm, Monday 4-8:30pm, Wednesday 6-11:30pm.... come and see meeeee... ^_^... Anyways.. I got homework to do... so um yeah... anyway come visit me...
-
I'm a nerd so I'm open for saterday night and santa will bring me an extra $150 on friday (realy Santa in person). Jay are you going, does your GF have any nerdy friends. Ther should always be something at the cheap theater. I'ff off at 6 so would try to get a 6.30 to 7.oo movie.
-
Dude, I am going to need a little recovery time after the Duck game. It may be the 9ish movie for me. You'll have to phone me, as this is about it for emails and posts etc. No comp at home!
I may try for Over the Hegde.
-
yes, i said longview.......
vondan said that it was 2 1/5 hours south of portland.....
and it's 2 hours from here to portland...
and i'm trying so hard to do the math in my head but i guess it's not working out XP
-
I don't think Vondan drives. That or his watch is broken. It takes 1:40 to go from Eugene to Portland, or the other way. According to this atlas here at work, it's about 40 miles. Which means it's about the same distance Portland-Salem. And doing about 80, that's 1/2 an hour. So it should only take you about 2 to 2 1/2 hours to get down here.
My mother lives in Hood River, that's a 3 hour tour, a 3 hour tour!
The weather started getting rough, the tiny ship was tossed.

-
I dont have your Number you call me i'm in the book under Vondan
-
oh well then mebbe.....i might make it....mebbe........
and that seems alot easier than 4 hours!
-
*hugs for vondan* YAY the only person yet to visit me... AND he validated my existance with a large soda... yay.. JAY WHERE WERE YOU???
Oh yeah I talked to my dad about the anime club.. he might be interested enough to take me ^_^...its pretty funny i got him sorta into anime through of all things.. sailor moon ^_^
-
I feel so honored yet sadened that it was I that validated her existance.
becarefull showing your dad sailor moon. My friend Nanny G said watching Sailor Moon tunred her nephew gay. Allthough she has no proof other than he is a huge elija wood fan and had a "friend" who bought him a bunch of silky shirts a poodle and a lexes
-
sorry babysugar bear, I couldn't get my g/f to go to the movies. That and I am technically broke already, I ought to wait until after payday, Halloween! Are we there yet.
Good for Vondan!
-
Oh yeah I talked to my dad about the anime club.. he might be interested enough to take me ^_^...its pretty funny i got him sorta into anime through of all things.. sailor moon ^_^
sadly, that's how i became an anime freak.........through sailormoon.........
O.o
-
that is how a great many of us became anime nuts... not all but a great many...
-
well at least i'm not alone! :lol:
-
No, no your not. Sailormoon got me too. ...The terror of it all.
-
Any one else going to the meeting on October 28th. We can all meetup at my shop and caravan there (And then I can get a ride) I'd pay for gas and bring snakes and snacks.
I was going to go with some one who would rather stay in town and watch a U of O Yoai Ball game
-
uh where is this being held? Also I can't make it.. that is girls night out... yay for girly sleepovers.. but.. i just wanna know where it is being held anyway.
-
this month it is in Salem at Chemeketa College. On the same day the anime club at the college is having a party so we can all stay for that
The meeting places move around between Eugene Portland and salem and maybe vancover this year.
-
o.O thats an awful long way if I gotta go all the way to portland or vancover
-
I am currently (shooting myself in the foot) working on trying to get TUNAC restarted. If any of yas are UofO students or nearby when would you like meeting?
Furthermore UofO prof Miyao is running a Japanese Cinema night open to the public Thursdays at 7pm on campus in Lillis 182.
Nyco
Thanks for your efforts and this new information. My current enrollment is at LCC, but I'm not aware of any kind of campus group there. Is there a link for the calendar for the showings for this Japanese Cinema? Have you found it a valuable opportunity for outreach?
-
[quote="RemSaverem
My current enrollment is at LCC [/quote]
you go to LCC?
lower columbia collage??
-
actually, that's Lane community college, here in eugene. thanks for asking!
-
lol I will be going to LCC when I get out of highschool... yay for slightly affordable education. GUESSS WHAT PEOPLES.... MONDAY IS MY BDAY... XD I be turnin 17 yay me...
-
happy bday today
-
I just wanted to say hi. I live in Eugene and would be very interested in an anime club. I'm really into anime but don't really have any friends who are also into it. I have weekends free. It would be really cool to socialize with some fellow otaku. :)
-
hey, I'm from just outside Eugene (less than 15 minutes) and I'd totally be interested in going to anime club meetings and such. If you guys wanna PM me the times and place(s) (if there are any yet) then that'd be suuuperrr :)
To the death!
-
Happy Birthday BabySugarBear!
Welcome to the newbies! So make an anime club already, we can't seem to focus long enough to start.
Did you say something?
-
JAY YOU NEED TO VISIT ME SOMETIME.... -.- bunghole... anyway... my bday was interesting to say the least... I found out some coworkers thought it would be fun to spread a rumor about a fellow coworker and I being a couple. His and my reaction "Oh my god..."Head falls right into hands. ... Yeah that was interesting... but yes... a club... WE MUST CREATE OURS!!!
-
i finally have weekends off and i've been depressed so i've been reading more (if that makes sense) mostly i've been into utena, the glimpses i can get from old rica's i got cheap at st. vincent de paul of all places......yeah anyway i want to do whatever's going to be happening
-
BabySugarBear, please post your new schedule so we can all visit you. I may have to go alone, my girlfriend can't seem to be dragged to a movie. Although she did manage to watch RV with me.
If I didn't need to eat so much popcorn and sodas and schnacks, I could afford to go to movies more often. $1.50 for a movie, and $15 for schnacks.
And that's with a small soda!
-
I won't be online for a while. I don't know how long. My father and I were just in an accident and he passed away. I'm sorry everybody for my absence on the forums. I <3 you all.
~Rachael~
-
I am so sorry to hear that.
Ok folks, we are going to the movies, show some support for babysugarbear.
I have this Friday evening open. I think it will have to be the late showing however. Meaning the 9-10ish showing.
-
i'll be with you.....in spirit?
sorry my fridays already claimed.
but i feel you pain and i'm really really sorry!
-
OK I have briefly returned... what I would like... IS TO GET THIS CLUB STARTED... I want us to have a club in the valley for anime. This weekend is not good for me but the rest of you do me a favor and start communicating with eachother. I want to meet up in the next few weeks and/or months so that we can start up our club and I can get some hugs from people. I love you guys so you better get this thing in motion! Start talking, finding out where we can meet, what we can or can't do that kinda thing ok? So I will be here on and off but I <3 all of you...
-
How about we elect Babysugarbear to be our club president? I make this nomination.
Second?
-
Second.
-
Ok so this is the deal... I work thursday,friday, sunday and wednesday night... so my only free night this week to meet is saturday. SO... I would like to organize a meeting for that night. All those who can make it please let me know! This way we can get something going and I can know how many people plan on showing up! Jaybug and I were thinking that Shari's over near the gateway mall would be a good place to have a sit down dinner/meeting just so we could get an idea of who is who and all that. Please let us know who can make it or who is interested in the club!
-
Ugh, I was going to say I would see you Friday at work, but the movie selection leaves much to be desired. Sorry.
I think I will be free after 6 Saturday. Those darn Ducks you know.
-
I'm available for Saturday as far as I know. I will plan to be there.
-
Ok, we got at least two people for Saturday. Sounds good.
Time???
And how to know another Otaku once there? Wear pink carnations?
-
saterday is good for me too the sheries on gatway I can close a little early and be there by 6
-
I am thinking 6:30pm might be best for all of us? This way its not too late but people have time to be able to get over there? Um... I dunno how we will recognize eachother... Vondan knows meeeee... lol I guess I will show up at 6:15 or try to so we can get a spot... -.- I am gonna have to wear cat ears or something so you guys can just ask for the table with the girl that has cat ears. XD Ok well lemmy know what you people think of that time.
<3 Rachael ~TsunadeSama~
-
I know who is babysugarbear is from the Photo thread (and seeing her at the theater) and I know jay and jay knows me, I might know some of the others from the old campus or ECC anime club but who knows. So if BSB gets a table at 6.15 and tells the staff it's for 6 peaple and it's for an anime club
-
6:30 is good for me. None of you know me but I wear gold rimmed glasses and my name is Brian. I'll see you there. :)
-
6:30 is good for me. None of you know me but I wear gold rimmed glasses and my name is Brian. I'll see you there. :)
yeah good the more the merryer up to to a point. Only one of the Zantars need to come to the meeting the other 428 can wait for a report that 429 submits to 001
-
Aww, too bad I'm busy Saturday. I would have gone. XD
-

<3 Rachael

for those of you coming to the meeting tonight i will be wearing kitty ears! see you all there!

Alright so the first general meeting of the as we are called right now OUNAC (Other UnNamed Anime Club) that is a temporary name... so dont yell at me... went well.... We have four members that showed up including myself.
Our next meeting will be at Vondan's shop at 865 Conger Street in Eugene. I am not sure what we will be watching yet. Those who plan to attend this meeting it will be Saturday the 11th and I would like to know who will plan on attending this meeting. The actual time will be announced soon. Bring Snacks!
Thank you to those who did attend tonights meeting. I had a great time. Don't forget to invite your friends who might be interested in joining!.... Our plan is to have another great time and watch some good anime!
<3 Rachael
-
Excellent... I will be sure to be there next week; I already know where Dan's shop is. :)
Sorry I didn't join in this week. I didn't catch the thread posts, and also I was called in for temp work -- the dang Ducks game, again...but hey, gotta have money before anime. Ducks games don't come every week, though, so they shouldn't interfere often (some people here watch football, unlike me, not to mention the traffic on game day).
I'm glad you at least got four people; that's good for a club that's just started out. If each of you try to bring friends, you will have enough for a good time. :)
Hmm, cat ears... I really need to make me a pair sometime. The ones you can make for free at the con look too low-budget and fragile, and the ones you can buy at the con cost a fortune and are not personalized.
-
It might be a month or so before I make it but at some point I intend to.
-
I think our plan is to try to have meetings every other saturday after this. I also need those who are interested to give out these simple things your name, phone number, email and user name :P... its also nice to know what you prefer to be called and age.... so far we have a wide varity of ages. Yay for older otaku and young otaku alike... I like the age differences... means that nerds don't die off right after highschool... no they go on to run anime conventions! (meg don't hurt me I love the convention... don't eat my future babies!)
-
Don't worry so much babysugarbear, she won't be able to get out of Beaverton, the traffic you know.
So we are going to watch something from vondan's Giblet's pack?
-
I think that would be good til I can get some stuff on netflix qued up for us or I can snag Kimi's copies of Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon which Vondan wanted to watch XD....

Die off right after high school?... Heck, I attended my first anime convention when I was 20. I had just *barely* started to get interested towards the end of high school. Although, admittedly, anime fans have apparently gotten slightly younger on average, thanks to Cartoon Network and other channels that have been airing more and more dubbed anime series...
Y'know, I think it's rather weird that some people talk to Meg like age is a sensitive issue. For instance, Nyco, our Programming Director, is around 18, and some people comment on how "young" she is. I don't remember Meg's exact age, but I don't think the age difference between Meg and Nyco is any more than 8 years. Does it only take 8 years to go from "young" to "old"? :P .... ;)
-
Well, at the meeting on Saturday BSB declared everyone else at the table to be "creepy old guys", so I guess I'm already old at 28, and creepy to boot. ;)

creepy yes... old... not really... you should speak more... then you wouldn't be so creepy.... its the quiet ones that creep me out... XD
VONDAN GIVE US A TIME TO MEET AT YOUR SHOP!!!
-
Should we all bring a DVD, and then vote on what to watch?
If superjaz comes down, bring kit-kat's and peanut butter cups!
-
Lol okies everybody bring something then we can vote
-
Okay. I have almost zero DVDs, though. I can bring Fruits Basket if you want, but I only have disc 1 so far.
I do, however, have two unopened DVDs I've won at conventions that I wanted to exchange rather than watch. So I could conceivably get more Fruits Basket, or whatever.
Also, the reason I have almost no DVDs is because I usually rent them from Emerald City Comics. If there's something we'd definitely like to watch that nobody owns -- practically anything -- I can probably get it there. We'll probably have to talk about that at a meeting, though. And for that to happen, I'm going to have to show up first, so I'll shut my mouth now until next meeting...
-
Yeah Like Radien said ECC has the biggest anime selection in town and they are only $1 or $1.50 to rent
I close at 6 so any time after that is good
I’m looking at a box of anime I have at work and it’s all I have. I don’t know what ones are DVD what ones are VCD and what ones are Avi Mpeg. It depends on what DVD player I bring from home that will play them. They will all play on the PC but I hate watching n the little PC screen so have not watched most of them yet.

Anyone know where to get some BBQ chicken giblets? Should bring those for snacks.

Hey Gang I just got Another DVD player at SVDP I spent 30 min checking it out with 3 dif DVD's and it seems to work at least for normal North American DVD.
My hands were full but I may go back to check the 20 VCR's at goodwill. As I said my tv at home stopped working and the extra one we put in the front room is really small like a 14 inch. BSB said she had an extra TV is that so? Any one PM me about if you want to bring a TV down and if for good or until the friends who said they had extras can bring them down and if you can bring it down friday or early saterday so i can set up all the cables and stuff (I can do it I have 50 credits of video production and used to intern at a cable station) Even some of the free tv's off Craigs list would work but i'm sans car to get them.
I'm off to look at the GW VCR's (and get the Derby I saw so i'll look dapper)
EDIT:
Grrrrrrrrrrrr Damit
If I had not stopped by work to drop off the dvd players and get more petty cash and hop on line to check the K con forum I would have got back to GW in time. As I was walking in some kid was buying the Derby, he wont know what to do with it, I'm the one with 4 trunks of hats.
I found a VCR that works to. Fo ryou kids to young to remember TUNAC showings were all on Video tape
-
Um.... I have a tv that has a dvd and vcr built into it. I can bring it if we need it... its not a big screen tv but it is bigger than a computer moniter. XD....
um.. I have three sailor moon movies, the escaflowne movie, kikis delivery service, spirited away, and castle in the sky also one of the tenchi movies is lying around here somewhere. ^_^ I am gonna see what I can do about borrowing some stuff from people.
Vondan let me know if you would like to use my tv or not. All it means for me is to unplug my ps2 from it :P Yay kingdom hearts!!!
-
Vondan let me know if you would like to use my tv or not. All it means for me is to unplug my ps2 from it :P Yay kingdom hearts!!!
Right now plan on Bringing it until
A. My friend who loaned me a 12 inch TV for work then took it back because it fit n the Van he was driving to LA for some movie meetings this week, brings the other bigger TV he said he had around
B. My Room mate said a friend of his was going to give us a TV or two (Mine stopped working when I was not home and others were using it so there may be a story and a reason he thinks he should find me another TV.)
C. I go get one from a junk store or such, they had some that worked well and the right size i'm thinking of for $25 but I just spent $35 on DVD and VCR and I have some big bills on Friday. If I do well the rest of the week we could take a road trip to the store and get a TV on Saterday.

Anyway... i am sure i can bring this thing... I just gotta find the remote for it which is floating around my bed somewhere.
Alright so the meeting will be THIS SATURDAY at 6pm. Here is the thing. I work from 10:30 to 5:30 that same day so I might be a tad bit tired and possibly grouchy but I will be there no earlier than 5:50pm.... Not to mention if that weren't enough I have to be a consessionist on the morning after the opening of pirates of the caribbean 2 in my theater... so... prepare yourselves.
<3 your lord and master
~&~Rachael~&~
-
Pirates are playing this weekend? Gotta take my g/f! I know just what to say to her, "shiver me __mber!" Are you working Friday night too BSB?
No the real name of the Giblets title, is Gravy of the Fireflies. Giblets and gravy always go together! Ask my cats!
-
I am not working tomorrow, but thats ok. Saturday will wear me out anyway... -.- d**ned mother nature... for she takes her ill will out on me... *pouts and goes to other girls for sympathy*
Ok anyway so remember people BRING SNACKS.... cause well they aren't cheap enough for me to fork out for them all...
Also... Vondan is it gonna be warm enough in your shop for all of us and what about seating? *wonders*
-
I'm bringing down the propane tank and heater for the season. It make a toasty time and the more bodies the more HOT it will be. So if we have 20 pepale we wont need heat
I have 1,2,3,4, chairs and some milk crates i'll stand not sure ware yet the tv will go.
There are a BK, Subway, Wendies, Taco Time, and dairy mart with in 2 blocks fredies is about 4 blocks. And I have a mini fridge and a Mico
-
bwaa haa ha haaa then um....im trying to figure out how to get a couple more chairs... lemmy look tonight.. unless people can bring one of those collapsable camping chairs.. I love those... i will bring mine... so comfy...
-
Not sure whether I'll be there or not; my girlfriend's visiting this weekend. If I do come I'll bring her with me. See you there, maybe. :)
-

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ALRIGHTY MEETING STUFF:
Time: 6pm Saturday November 11th
Place: Vondan Leatherworks 865 Conger Street #17, Eugene
I am not sure what we are watching yet. Bring whatever anime you have laying around and we should be able to vote on something suitable for the meeting.
CHAIRS... ok so there are a few chairs but people if you want to be insured a comfy spot then you may want to bring something soft to sit on or possibly one of those fold up captain chairs... i am bringing one for myself or posssibly my mom to sit in.
YES MAMA BEAR WILL BE THERE THE ENTIRE TIME.... so people.. be nice to her... she is not as anime savy as the rest of us.
OKIES SNACKY SNACKY....
I believe that I am gonna pick up a pepperoni pizza before I head over there. If you don't like pepperoni then pick off the pieces and look you have a cheese pizza. -.- Pepperoni is the most popular/basic type I can get so hang with me okies. ANYWAY I am also bringing fruit punch, plates, plastic eating utensils, napkins and plastic cups.
Oh and name tags... yes you will have to wear a name tag so that other people can easily identify you.
Ok and if you want other snacks please do bring them. Soda and other snacks are more than welcome
I will be bringing my tv for this event. I did finally find the remote.
There will be a door prize drawing at the meeting. One person will get to have something kinda cool. So be there!
I hope to see you all there!!!! SHOW UP OR I WILL BEAT YOU WITH THE PARASOL I BOUGHT AT THE LAST KUMORICON!!! Anyway So I will check here before I leave for work tomorrow and hopefully all that can will show up.
Signed your lord and master
<3 Rachael
-
I found a TV while my friend was in LA he had an estate auction and allthough they sold a 200 year old violin for $15 and swords from the movie hook for $7.50 they did not sell the junk tv. We spent all last night going over what was missing (that was not on the sale list or in rooms marked not for sale) and what was broken and what was sold for less than the listed reserve prices and loading guns. So I have a TV down hear now yeah.
scratch that about the tv, last night in the garage it looked fine but I have been fiddling with it for 40 minutes and the image from the VCR and DVD is grainy and tinted red
I do have a stack of paper plates but only one fork
-
Hey were all at the club meeting, no home made sugar bear cookies or pizza for you. We just watched Uh on. having fun wish your aunt were here
-
I'm glad people showed up. Sorry to not have been one of them. But I did some fabulous male bonding with my father, for 14 straight hours in front of the television! :shock:
So what did we see?
-
well that was fun we had 3 peaple show up and another drove up saw one car and left. lets try to network more next time. so prez BSB when is next time I'm open to almost any saterday except next week is the K Con meeting in vancover. And it dont have to just be for anime Samurai movie rpg or board games too
-
Um.... I am gonna put in for saturdays off so that I can run the meetings every other saturday and then I can also make it up to the kcon meetings... I'd like to be a very active person this year.. anyway... so I am thinking the 25th might work for the next meeting? This way the 18th is clear for people going to this kcon meeting... I am just wondering how I am gonna pull this off...I either have to make it so my mom takes me up to this meeting or find someone else who can take me :(... rawr
-
...and another drove up saw one car and left.
*bangs head against wall*
*bothers neighbors*
I knew I should've knocked on the door. ~_~;;

baka.... :\ I wanna have more people....
-
she's starting a new collection
-
I collect people... yay me.. and all of those I collect are first edition and one of a kind. ^_^
-
So, is there anyone besides me and BSB who likes to play Soul Calibur? I have all three of them and could bring my PS2 and/or Dreamcast if anyone was interested. I never get to play it against other people. Could be fun. :) But, like I said, I'm busy and won't be there on the 25th.

I suck at all the fighting games but I dont mind if pepale bring them to the party/meeting/event. I just watch fighting games and make assinine comments and soak in the backstory
-
I don't know how to play modern video games.
-
I don't know how to play modern video games.
for us i can get an Atari 2600 and we can play pong
-
I so sucked at that. And I wasn't much better at Night Driver either. Can you get Robotron? About the only one I got better than so-so.
-
lmfao you guys are so funny... I've played all sorts of stuff... Soul Calibur though is probably one of my favorite series. I play gamecube version mostly but I am ok with other versions... lol and I just got the naruto fighting games recently.rawr... i cant sleep... darn it... stupid insomnia

Heeh I <3<3 Soul Calibur. But I've only played the second one >C
I really suck <_>
But it's entirely enjoyable! :D
-
That's OK, I probably suck too. I only get to play against the computer so a real person who's good at it would probably kick my butt.
Well, that's two people besides me who want to play. I'll probably bring the PS2 with me next time I come and we'll see what happens. :)
-
Lit.... you will come to the meetings cause i dunno i say so...
-.-... anyway
Guess what I picked up people.... an actual anime series.. yay us... we have something to watch for the next few meetings if people like this....
I got... dun dun dun..... ANGELIC LAYER.. yay for meeee... I loved the manga... I dunno if you all will like the series but it should be really good. Also... for christmas I may get a series or two more
I am really trying for Neo Ranga and Kelido Star ^_^... just a few animes anyway that I am trying to get my hands on...
-
yeah a series. I saw some of that years ago (right before they planed the first K Con at TUNAC) as an added bonus I have 20 Barbies at my shop we can all dress our own Angelic Avatar doll.
Von "Damn I just admited having barbies at my shop" Dan
-
would you make pretty little outfits for my dolly... i would like to cosplay as an angelic layer character and have a really cool lil angel all my own ^_^
-
I got them to make Larry Elmore inspired warrior barbies like I seen Valkyrie barbie on Ebay for $200. So far all I have made was a Biker guy in a little leather jacket with a zipper and every thing. I started a Pirate girl when the call screener on a local radio show said she wished some one would make an action figure of her and said she went as a pirate for haloween. But when she said she got engaged I stopped that project, but I had made was a little sword and glasses
-
I've seen AL. It's a fun show. I'm glad I won't be missing out on something I haven't already seen.
-
Ok well here is a quick question.. who all can make it... cause Zan I know you won't be there... but who else can make it to the meeting this weekend, because if it is just Vondan and I, I will become very sad and such...
-
I would really really like to start coming to the club. But I'm horrendously ill-informed. Where/When/What time/How Frequent-is it? I'm not sure I'd be able to make it this time around (my mom's b-day and I might be going to dye my hair some crazy color in portland) But....yeah! :D
^.^information is sweet.
-
The club is meeting at my leather shop every other Saturday at 6 I THINK the next one is on the 25th. Bring snacks or there are 4 Fast food places with in a few blocks.

-
lit just talk to me at school and I will let you know more info... ^_^ its fun though thats for sure... oh well if no one else shows up vondan you can teach me how to play d&d or we can make angels for angelic layer XD
-
Shhhh don't be talking about that stuff. If every one knew about the hundreds of RPG books, 50 board games, the two golf bags of swords we will be swamped with nerd guys. The Point of the club is to get more young ladies to bring there aunts or much older sisters and cousins who never had a chance to explore there imaginations (be nerdy) in HS. So lets just talk about the barbie's, the 9 sewing machines and the cabinet full of lace.
-
lmao vondan ur funny XD
-
Quite enjoyable indeed sir. I nearly cried for joy when I heard "cabinet full of lace"
(and D&D) X3
-
Everyone, don't forget to bring vondan your aunties! Aunties and snacks! More aunties than snacks, please.
I wonder if I should try asking my g/f if she wants to go? She ain't into it.
-
Bummer <_>
I'd bring one of my spinster aunts if they weren't like....sixty....and rednecks
-
Bring her, couldn't hoit.
-
I would. But I haven't talked to half my aunts in several years. (I have a big family) And they'd probably be like T_T I'm not going to that, I'm going to sit at home and think about straw instead.
-
That's even worse than me! At least I have cats that need attention.
-
So jaybug you will be there then?
-
So were all on for tonight!!
I don't want to clean my shop for nothing
BSB can you bring your TV again. I'v spent $60 on vcr & dvd player for the club but I still have not found a good enough cheap TV. Some one me gave me a TV that's to red and fuzzy, some one gave me one thats built into a cabinet 6 feet long so i did not take it and some one offered one that has like a 9 inch screen. I see some at the junk store from time to time but never when I'm with some one with a car AND have extra cash in my pocket. I have found some that work cause no one bothered to figure out how to use the tv menu W/O the remote so they sit there on a non channel looking like they don't work.
Any ways be there or be round cause we are all ready square
-
I'll try to make it, but I'll be late. I hope it's okay if I call first. How late are you going to go, I wonder?
Aw, enough posting here; you probably won't see it until afterwards.
-
So, how many people ended showing up? Hope it was more than just BSB and Von Dan.
-
we had BSB, Vonme. I messaged Negima an hour before to remind him and he made it and then right when we started radien called to say he was comming over so thats 4
-
Haha well there'll be a 5th next time hopefully. So next meeting is Saturday December 9th? I might need to bum a ride of of BSB. Cause I'm an awesome hobo like that.
-
I hope I don't need an emergency nap like last Saturday.
Did we pick our flavor for next time?
-
um... I dunno just what we are doing yet XD.... I might bring the ps2 and sc2 and 3... i dunno yet... XD
-
Wait, December 9th? Why the 9th? Aren't we going to do something on the 2nd (this Saturday)?
I'll probably be gone the weekend of the 9th. I will be free on the 2nd, however, but it depends on whether my girlfriend wants to go, because she'll be down from Portland this weekend.
-
I'll be here Saterday.
-
wait. It's this saturday again? I'm vaguely confused. The second? The ninth -_-; dang...WEll if it is this saturday I'll be nice and tired from my silly SAT's so a breath of fresh anime-flavoured air will be grand.
-

the every other week would make it the 9th but I was saying i'm open to doing something every saterday
-
o.O do we want to do something every saturday? Also I don't think we can do something this saturday unless it means you guys don't need my tv cause I work 5:30 to 11:30 this saturday... XD thats it I'm requesting all saturday's off now... XD *nods* indeed this shall be a good thing.. but as for this saturday... sorry peeps I can't pull this one off. And I shall consult my mom about the every saturday thing..
-
Sorry, I missed where you said it was gonna be biweekly. I just assumed it'd be weekly, since TUNAC always was. :)
By the way, one of the old TUNAC members, Terry (a.k.a. Wuntvor), has been holding a weekly anime night ever since TUNAC was disbanded. I've emailed him to make sure he knows about this new club.
-

And I shall consult my mom about the every saturday thing..
figured the other saterdays nerd talk, board games or an RPG
-
I think so... that would be good...^_^
-
Indubitably. (dang I need to get a car)
Oh! And I have a TV that I could probably bring if there isn't one to be brought. (it's kinda small though I haven't looked at it for a while) but it works fine and would be better than nothing ^.^
-
Not sure if I'll show up this weekend...we'll see how it goes.
If we need a TV badly enough, I always have my immortal Commodore 64 monitor. ;) It still works great... however, it doesn't seem right for a club to watch anime on something that small. I think we should instead keep looking into the University sponsorship, or even just start holding it there unofficially like we used to.
By the way, do you think we could have a discussion about the club's name once we get about 8 members or more? OUNAC doesn't really roll off the tongue, and I thought it'd be nice to actually be a "named" anime club this time around...
If nothing else we could play around with anagrams. "The Ultimate Northwest Anime Club"? ... "The Unified Neo Anime Church"? ...Yeah, something like that... ;)
-
A while back Nyco27 said she was trying to get TUNAC reinstated and had found a willing faculty adviser and I put her in touch with some freshmen who wanted to join but I have not heard back on that. Would the U of O want 2 anime clubs hanging around one with creepy old guys. I'm open to meeting any ware. And I would not be apposed if our club folded into TUNAC like the double decker taco we can be the refried beans layer. My place is till open for Movies rpg board games any thing that will get the nerdy aunts out of the house and to my lair.
And if TUNAC is up by the Con they need to work the club booth and sell griled TUNAC and cheese sandwhiches
-
Ok so this is what I have got figured out. I am cool with doing meetings every week with the anime portion being every other week. Also here is another thing.... I won't be able to go to everysingle meeting but just because I am not there doesn't mean that the meetings can't occur. I don't expect every person to be able to make every meeting. Another thing I don't really know if I want us to be called just an anime club cause I guess it makes me feel like our club doesn't accept people who are nerdy but don't particularly care for anime...
on a side note... here is my lil vote for the club name... I think that Nerdy By Nature would be a cute name because well we are all nerdy in one way or another so its true, its cute, it has a bit of a ring to it, easy to remember and it doesn't make us a certain type of nerd group but rather leaves it open for interpretation. But that is just what I have come up with... I am still leaving it open to all of us members to decide.
-
Haha that's cute ^.^ and appropriate.
-
So we are all going to be Nerdy this saturday Does that mean I need to scrub the tolit again even though Mama Bear never did go inspet it
-
Should I bring my disc of FMP TSR?
-
lmao that would be a good idea... and to move whatever acid is near the toilet away from it... XD I am so cold... bwaaaah
-
I haven't even watched all of FMP yet.
-
This is the first disc of "The Second Raid", not part of the first season.
-
Yes, I understand that. I am plowing through the first season as we speak.
-
okies peoples... so six pm at Vondan's shop
Lit if you need to call me for a ride then the number is 731-9788 just let me know if you still need a ride or want to go.
Alrighty... see you all tomorrow...
-
If I don't show up I'm sorry. I'm not sure how Saturday is going to play out.
-
If I don't show up I'm sorry. I'm not sure how Saturday is going to play out.
You can always send one of the other zantars or even better send Zarina
-
YAY we broke the 4 people standard ammount that have showed up to the meeting... XD We had 6 people show up tonight.
Vondan, Radien, Jaybug, Lit, A coworker of mine Nick and myself! We watched Full Metal Panic and played on the ps2. Over all I think we had a pretty good time chatting, watching anime and playing video games. NERDS JOIN US NEXT WEEK for roleplay gaming, nerd chat and other such festivites... the next anime meeting/viewing will be on the 23rd just before Christmas ^_^ Hopefully we can see you all there again!....
I may not be at the next meeting (the 16th) due to something up in portland. If I can attend I will but if not... don't let Vondan eat all the snackage..
Also I want to let people know that any snacks left behind after a meeting become club property and can be used by the club and possibly vondan if he gets hungry enough ^_^
-babysugarbear28
PS. Sandy Clawz ( ^_^ )
-
SANDY CLAWZ WILL SUBDUE YOU.
Heheh. I'm going to have to attempt to create a Santa Claus in Soul Calibur 3 to go along with Ms. Sandy Clawz. I have a feeling I'll be able to come up with something pretty amusing.
What fun it is to ride and sing a slaying song tonight...
-
I still think giving her the metal bra would've been awesome X3.
When you play her you should give her claw-like weapons to pwnz0r people with *Ahahahaa*
*is very amused*
-
i'll see if i can ever get my bf max to agree to come to this w/me...he likes vondan so that might help. his fave game is halo though lately he's into donkey kong on old nintendo (& i've spent hours on supermario world this week...borrowing someone's console...got to um i think it's called morton's castle so far hee hee my favorite is um, i think it's called something like donut plains one)
-
Also I want to let people know that any snacks left behind after a meeting become club property and can be used by the club and possibly vondan if he gets hungry enough ^_^
PS. Sandy Clawz ( ^_^ )
I promise not to eat any thing that was not open, that means we have 3 bags of chips and a 3 jars of dip left and a bottle of Kogome. Looks like the pocky was open and so were the pickles
-
vondan picked a pocky of pickles
how many vondans could a pissed off pocky pick?
-
So are we getting nerdy saturday night
-
I don't know if I will make it to the nerdiness I think I will be up in Portland tomorrow. Anyway I will be able to make it to the get together on the 23rd. *hugs for all* alrighty well i need to get some sleep. I hope you guys have fun tomorrow... LET THE NERDINESS LIVE ON!!!
-
Are we doing an anime this weekend? If so, do I need to bring one? And again if so, should it be a movie or a series?
-
Hmm, next meeting is on Christmas Eve Eve... Meaning, the 23rd. Well, I might be able to come. Count me as there unless I say otherwise.
By the way, I'd like to suggest that we try out Genshiken sometime. If you want to start an "otaku club," it's very... educational! ;)
-
I will unfortunately be out of town all this weekend. I hope you guys have fun.
-
zantar be safe in your travels and as for the rest of you... bring something otherwise you are stuck watching angelic layer :P and since jaybug did munchie runs last time if there isnt enough fresh stuff still sitting around at vondan's radien its ur turn to take the money and go buy munchies!
-

Uh, okay. :P
I guess I'll try to be there on time.
-
I might be able to come. I'm not positive my parents might have something planned for me (although unlikely) Hehe we should have a christmas eve eve party X3. BSB could I possibly bum a ride again? :D?
*loves being an awesome hobo*

Well I suppose someone would need to rent out Genshiken? Assuming Emerald Comics would have a copy.
I'm broke, pretty much until payday. I could bring one of my own. I have GITS SAC discs, a few Ghibli movies, the usual suspects there, and the first four discs of Vandread, and Bubblegum Crisis, oh, and Oh, or Ah My Goddess.
Duh, I keep forgetting that I am losing half of my weekend working overtime. So I won't be going anywhere other than work Saturday.
-
yeah i can give you a ride.... me thinks.. anyway people bring stuff or else um.... i will make you watch pokemon... i still have videos from that you know....

Hey I have the Pokemon Board game I found still in shrink wrap
-
Hmmm
Not sure if I can make it this time either. I know I'll be helping my parents wrap presents plus I have to prepare for a road trip coming up.
-
As my mother likes to say, you've got more excuses than Carter's got pills.
Not like I can go today either. I'm sucking up the overtime at work tonight.
Just think of me kindly while you are having a good time.

Everyone will have to have fun for me too :C I'm quite ill and haven't recovered yet. *hack*

relax everyone, that isn't contagious pneumonia, it's just hairballs, from removing fur form the leather.

My family opens presents on Christmas Eve and I've hardly done any shopping, so I'm probably going to be out shopping most of the evening. Sorry, I'll be there next time.
If we started meeting weekly, I'd be there even more often, hint hint! :P
-
im gonna be a tad bit late -.- but i will be there asap
-
Lol so how many people actually showed? >_<; was it nerd-tastic? :D
-
Is there going to be a meeting next Saturday?
-

Oh we had lots of people show up. we went to BK for snacks, then alots of nerd talk and every one else rolled up D&D PC and looked through boxes of minis while I kept checking my windows wall paper.
Is there going to be a meeting next Saturday?
I plan on something most every Saturday night. Every one at the last meeting wanted to play a RPG on the alternate weeks
-
so is this anime weekend, or... and if so, should I bring an anime, or will someone rent something from the inspiration for the comic book guy on the Simpson's?

Radien!
Anyway, yeah, I think you'd like Genshiken. I'll pick it up if I make it this weekend.
Dang, I just remembered I forgot to return my DVDs today. >_<;

i don't suppose anyone's considered playing any of the s from the joss whedon universe? i have the buffy book and know where it is. somewhere i have the angel book (or used to) and might eventually find it (or recall to whom i lent it). never had the firefly book but would love to check it out.

I'd be open to any RPG, the one the kids wanted to play was D&D but I might incorperat some D20 BESM or D&D Oriental Adventures to add some anime elements. I have not played Buffy or serenity I may have the books on PDF (I have 40 giggle bytes of rpg PDF files (I just checked and I have the Buffy book by EDEN ) or there is a D&D Modern setting I have that is a clone of Buffy.
Actually rather then play the Buffy or Firefly RPG cant I just hang out with Allison Hanigan and Jewel Sate and date them both in character.
-
I think D&D is vastly overrated. Not to say I dislike D20. But ironically, I think D20 is better suited to settings other than medieval fantasy.
If you want anime elements, I strongly encourage D20 BESM rather than Oriental Adventures... largely because I've read over and approve of D20 BESM.
I'd be happy to try out an RPG at club, as long as it's anime-related and not in the D&D setting. I have simply played more D&D than I really care to in the past few years. :P
As for Joss Whedon, I think he is awesome, but if we want to create an anime club we'd probably better watch the non-anime outside of "advertised" club meetings (after meetings, perhaps).

It may sort of be that one week is anime the other is something else nerdy. So something going on every week since half the time we have just had nerd talk or played games
As I said I’m not stuck on any one system although for cost effectiveness If I’m running a game I’ll try to do something D20 as I have a lot of stuff for it, I’m familiar with it and I can easily find more resources. I’m also kind of tired of the normal fantasy D&D (Even is HS we used 0 ED D&D to play the old west and something like the Road Warrior and made up a space game.) Last year I started a D20 Modern game set in 1937 but two of the players had to go and get jobs and the game ended right after the battle with Die Flagger Wyrms Flyng Circus and before they got out of New York and met Tammy Tessla or had the Airship battle against the Graf Wyvern and the Nazi Luft Komandos.
The main reason it started as D&D is the kids wanted to learn that one and I have the books all ready in hand (if we played old 1ed D&D I could loan every one a PHB). I have a about 20 BESM files and was just looking at BESM D20 and rolled up a NPC and we could convert the one or two PC that are all ready rolled up. So far nothing is set in stone other than one person rolled up a druid (because she wanted to have magic and a cute animal companion) and another may wants to play a fairy. I'm leaning toured an adventure like when Inyuahsa and his friends are wandering around the woods doing stuff and D20 BESM does not have a lot of resources for medieval or outdoors adventure. Oh what if it turns into a medieval Magical Girl campaign
And then of course we could get no farther then look though all my stuff and watching Anime. Anyways keep sending input RadIEn. And if you wanted to run the game then I could play (No play since K con all my groups floped) and I'll play a magical Lizard Girl martial artist
-
Some of my sister's friends from out of town are arriving this evening and staying for a few days, so I may or may not be there. We'll see what happens tonight. If we end up exchanging gifts, I may be homebound again.
BESM D20 doesn't have a lot of medieval fantasy adventuring provisions, you say? Would it be possible to start with BESM D20 and work in whatever you want from D&D? Or the other way around?
I dunno, I just really like to get away from the rigid setup D&D always starts with. Rogues disarm traps and backstab people, fighters hit things in the face, elves find hidden doors, etc. etc. Plus all the D&D GMs I've ever had have had us spend 60% of our time in a slimy cave or smelly dungeon. I know that's optional, but it always seems to happen, and I really wonder why my hero shouldn't have better things to do with his/her time.
I do have a medieval anime character or two that I could play. But I do hope we have access to BESM D20 skills and classes. I really liked a lot of what I saw, and the one time I got to play regular BESM was a lot of fun. ^^

Hi all,
I just discovered this thread, Radien told me about it. I have been hosting anime at my home every Friday night starting at 9:00pm for about a year now. I was one of the main members of the old TUNAC anime club. I have a 46" HDTV and 8.2 surround system as well as a media center computer that is tied into it. I can play DVDs, AVI's, MKV's, OGM's, you name it. I also have a massive collection of anime and torrent downloads. I haven't updated it in awhile.
http://wuntvor.home.comcast.net/anime_list.htm
My wife, 16 year old son, and 21 year old daughter are usually around, as well as my daughters "girl posse", so younger female/male members should feel safe in attending. I have no problems in meeting with parents of younger members if they wish to "check me out" If anyone wants to attend feel free to contact me. Space is sort of limited and I don't usually provide food or beverages anymore, although you can bring your own. I will occasionally try to plan a meal with some gyoza (potstickers).
I can be reached at the following E-Mail
wuntvor@comcast.net
or you can call me at home 541-689-4219 in Eugene
I have a map to my home on-line that I will E-Mail to any interested parties.
Hope to see some of you soon.
Terry Pleger aka Wuntvor

@ Radien
As a DM I'm pretty loose it's about having fun. For the Pulp Game set in 1937 we used PC classes, skills and feats/abilities from D20 Modern, D20 Past, Trinity D20 Adventure and D&D 3E. It was what ever the players wanted for a PC concept and some of the campaign was modified to fit the PC backgrounds every one wrote or told me about. We can see how serious any one is about actually playing or just looking at the pictures of elves in the books and playing with the minis. And if any of your sister's friends are nerdettes you are welcome to bring them.
@ Wuntvor
Yeah Steve gave me your info once on a napkin at a K con meeting. I don't remember any one else may age at TUNAC, it seamed after the meeting they would say creepy old guy and run off to watch anime. I kept forgetting to go and or transportation, I’d be interested in the location. And every one expects me to ask if your wife will have any of her single friends or sisters there nerdy with glasses 30 to 40 YO
-
Ok so I need to know whether I am bringing the tv or not... ^_^ oh yeah I got a wii! yay meeee.... I dunno If I am ready to take it outside the house yet though...
-
You might as well bring it, every one misses anime and we have not watched any the last few meetups. If I still have the $50 in my pocket by the time of the meeting we could take a filed trip to goodwill to look for a TV (I never have a ride when i find a good one) but I have a ride coming to get propane and snacks in a few
-
if any one came by i'm here, I got back at 6'15. My ride for snacks went late but I did get a TV but it's to huge
-
im still bringing the tv... be there in i dunno a half hour...
-
yeah the TV I just got (for $15 and help some one move stuff) is just so huge it would not work in my shop another friend will put it in his party room and give me one about your size.
While i'm waiting I'll look at my wall paper
Von "Happy Magic Smiles" Dan
-
Good grief.
Doesn't look like I missed much, by my having company over Saturday. Got to see an old friend. Should have brought him over to play D&D, what we used to do instead of going to school, way back when. Yeah, think of it now dipsquid!
-
Hey all ^_^ I want to bring in the new year by wishing you all a very happy new year and I hope that your new year brings you many desired animes as well as many good days. *hugs for all* see you all next year...
-
Good grief.

Actually, we spent most of the time chatting and watching Genshiken. However, I was only there a little over two hours, so I can't speak for what else was done that evening.
Wuntvor was there, and it was good to see him. I know he's got his own weekly anime thing, and it sounds like our two "gigs" aren't going to be consolidated, since Wuntvor wants to focus on the anime portion. But either way, I hope we can share members between the two. :)
Anyway, I'd like to continue showing Genshiken in the future, as it's very "educational" about the differences and similarities our club shares with Japanese clubs of the same type. That and it's damn funny once you get a few episodes into it.
-
How many episodes did you watch? I want to download them so I'll be caught up in the event I actually make it next time. :)
-
I got thee at 6.15 and BSB got there at 7.00 then Radien called and came over at 7.30 and then Wuntvor called to come over at 8.00.
I thought no one was gonna show up so I ate all the Peperoni and ham for the crackers
We had geek talk and watched two eps of Genshiken Radien had on his Lap top and we hope to have some one rent the rest from Emerald City. As the last 3 meeting have crashed with holiday weeks we hope to have a more decivive schedual the rest of the year.
-
I intend to rent Genshiken this time, but if worse comes to worse I have plenty more episodes still on my laptop. :) The translation is good either way, but the fansub has a bit more in the way of Japanese lingo and footnotes.
Anyway, yeah, if you want to catch up, watch episodes 1 and 2.
If enough people show up this Saturday who haven't seen it, perhaps we can see about rewatching the first two again. In this series I'd say that the first two episodes are pretty valueable, as they set up some of the quirky situations that keep developing throughout the rest of the series. ;) It's still quite possible to start in the middle of the series, though.
-
Ooo! I've never seen it! sorry I've been kinda lame about coming :C I have been being ridiculous, I might be able to come this week, but I'm not sure, my lame streak might continue. *twiddles thumbs*
-
And don't forget every one bring your empty (or full) pocky boxes I cant say why but don't look under the bench with the leather cutter
-
Thank you vondan.
I need all the pocky boxes I can get so that I can build my armor this spring.
My problem is that I don't have enough of the SAME kind of boxes. I have a lot of different flavors and one or two of the seasonals.
If anybody out there has giant pocky boxes i'll actually pay you a little for them. I buy those when I can but it takes so long to finish them because few of my friends actually like it. :cry:
-
I just thought I would mention that I am having anime at my house tonight. I usually have a group over every Friday to watch stuff. We start at 9:00pm E-Mail me or call me if interested.
I also have Genshiken :)
Hope to hear from some of you soon.
-
I just finished watching the first two eps of Genshiken. Good show.
Are we gonna play any Soul Calibur tonight? I have a PS2 and the game if BSB doesn't want to drag hers over.
-
I have no idea what the plan is bring it if you want she has so much to bring any ways
and bring Any female member of your cult maybe Zarina
-
I believe I will be attending tonight C: I finished my homework so I feel like doing not-much for a bit ^.^
>_>
<_<
*whispers* I kinda need a ride though
Goddddd I need my license :'c
-
Don't panic. I won't be there tonight. Having to stand in for a guy taking his Governor's Day off.
I'll be thinking of y'all, sort of.
FYI, got disc 2 of FMP TSR.
-
Ope just kidding. I can't make it, neither can BSB :C
-
Oh no what will we do without the leader. Hmmm we cold go over to my friends who was gonna give me a TV for the huge one I got for $15 but has been using excuses like has to go to Florence and push somes ones car out of a creak or has to go to the hospital
-
I have my laptop if we want to watch any of the anime I have on it. We'll see.
-
So just to give me an idea... how many of you can make it today and what did we plan on doing? Oh and Vondan did you get the remote for the tv?
-
So just to give me an idea... how many of you can make it today and what did we plan on doing? Oh and Vondan did you get the remote for the tv?
NO remote BUTT! I just realized it has the new types plug things on the front ( I went to video school 20 years ago) so I can plug the DVD player directly into it and use it on the Line input setting bypassing the RF Modulator but cant have it in a daisy chain with the VCR or Antennae. So we can watch DVD VHS (built into TV) and game boxes.
I'm looking at how cool that flash Gordon DVD is right now.
The one thing we are missing is the heater tank is empty so if any one with a car can go get it filled that would make Steve happy.
Although I called my friend this morning about the remote and getting the tank filled. He was in Florence dealing with Drama and said he was coming back to town but his cell phone don’t work outside of Eugene (Young men I advise you don’t date chicks with addictive problems)
-
I can come if I can get a ride >_>;; sorry if I'm being lame :c
-
id have no problem bringing you lit :\ ive been playing kingdom hearts all day >.< damn its addictive nature
-
I wish I had a PS2 so I could play cool video games :c
Just name the time and I'll be ready ;D
-
*growls and lets out a string of cusswords* well everything is frozen here so no go on tonight -.- sorry lit :(
-
6:30 and no one here yet, I expect you knwo who to call at 7 yo ask if it's ok for him to come over but if no one calls or comes by by 7:00 I'll pack it in. It is to much fun for one man.
Opp change that to if I dont here from any one by 7:00 I just had a call from another set of friends to do something which would realy just concist of getting soda and talking playing around with swords maybe watching the behind the sceans stuff from a movie with swords
-
Roll Call

-

Ohh I could see if they work in my dvd player
-
I have a feeling I'm not going to be there, but if that changes I'll let you know.
-

I can't make it to the meeting tonight. I want to finish some projects tonight so that I don't have to worry about them tomorrow.
But I can make it to the meeting tomorrow. ^_^
-
Sorry people I am dead tired and not gonna be able to make it tonight. Who ever does make it please keep Vondan away from the sweet stuff and make sure he doesn't open all the dips ^_^ :P I will see you guys next Saturday... I'm sorry finals took their toll on me...
-
doh and I was not going to come in today but I came in late just just to call a few customers and be here for the club. I'll be here till 7 unless some one shows up
-
Hmm. I don't know whether I'll be there. If anyone else decides to go, however, I'll reconsider. Trying to conserve gas, and all...it's a long drive.
-
i'm here and it's 6.05 and no one yet. I hope no one came by at 5.55 because I forgot to take down the out sick sign untill 6. Felling like crap this morning came in hours late to just pudder without being disturbed and have the club meeting.
-
Well, I don't think I'm going out tonight, so don't wait up for me. I'd be happy to come and just hang out, if it weren't such a long drive... my gas bill was pretty big last month. Ouch.
-
Hey gang did any one make an anonymous call on Monday about something this week and attach my name, we were working on formulating statements for that anonymous call we were going to make without my name
-
Well, that wasn't me, if you hadn't already guessed.
I hate to miss again, but I have a weekend event going on this Saturday. I will probably be right in the middle of the festivities while you're holding anime club. Sorry... I'll drop by next week regardless.
-
I'm gonna be in Portland this weekend so I won't be able to come.
-
So is any one showing up or will I have all the snacks to myself
-
Hey so I think I can make it tonight if my mom gets home some time soon. ^_^ If not then well ya know walking may take too long to get there. Make sure if you are eating snacks Vondan that you don't eat too much
-
7.00 and no one is here yet. I guess I'll go find something to eat (but damn BK is closed for remodel) then come back to clean up and watch TTT
-
Just so you know, I'm planning on coming by for club today. :) I don't remember if this is supposed to be a club week or not, but I've missed twice, so I'm coming either way. That okay, Dan? I will bring my laptop, plus other stuff if desired.
-
I plan on having the club tonight and said before any one who wanted to see my shop after the meeting can come over. All though I may have to run an errand after 6 if I do not get together with some other friends potential bussiness partners to get it done before I go to the meeting at 1.30 but that should only take me 30 to 45 min and another friend will drive me and I may just send him to do it anyways.
I'll know more exactly by the time i go to the meeting.
-
I will most likely be able to make it. My sister could have her kid anytime now and its been hectic soooo I will try to make it to the club meeting but if not don't be mad at me I will try my hardest to be there next week. *cries* why does everything important happen in feb? *sniffles*
-
Still have not met up with my other friends and took care of bussiness may have to do that later to night but I might trust you kids to watch the shop for half an hour and talk bad about me
-
I challenge any one from Eugene who is a member of Tunac, OuNac, NbN or freelance nerds to donate some time to the Kumoricon booth at next weeks Asian Celibration at the lane county fairgrounds.
As far as I know now I will be there 7 hours on sunday so if I follow my normal routine I will have to spend $42 on noodles at one plate an hour.
We cant rep Eugene with only 3 volunteers this was the town that founded K Con. If onlt the three show up they will mock us and say "Is this all you got, is this it, is this all you can conjour up Sarudan"
If your up to the challenge contact Antares and the street team
-
Thanks for the post VonDan! I was just heading to this thread to do a shout out....
Pls. contact me if you are interested and for more info (or you can check out the Street Team thread under "get involved" on the forums)
-
Is there gonna be club this weekend or is everyone gonna be at the Asian Celebration? I'm thinking about checking that out for a little while. I might have someone who wants to come check out the club if there's gonna be people there.
-
the Asian Celebration goes untill 6 and the club meets at 6 or 7 so I'll be here
-
I think I am not going to buried in homework or other stuff this Saturday. I was wondering if I should bring my new Hellsing disc, or if we are doing other nerdy stuff besides anime?
Let me know your thoughts, please.
-
Not sure, but I'll be coming this week. I have to bring some stuff to Dan regardless, so might as well combine it with a Saturday club trip.
I'll try to be there as early as I can after 6.
-
yeah one person might come by. and if some one with a car comes by we can go pick up the Masamune Shirow Anime movie collection with Appleseed, Gundress, Black magic m-66, Dominion tank police and gohst in the shell I just bought fomr some one who is not home till 7 tonight. of course who ever can barrow them to watch too.
and does any one know I have a pop corn Air popper I like to use in the winter
-
So I don't think I can make it tonight... I have to open at work tomorrow so I really need to sleep tonight. Sorry guys... *hugs for all* see you guys next week
-
Are we getting nerdy tonight
Are we down wit da NBN
-
I may be dropping by, if only for leatherwork stuff.
-
is any one going to be nerdy tonight. I'm here but i'm always nerdy. If no ones shows or calls by like 7 i'm gone. Wont be at the meeting I have way to much work to do
-
Dude, I tried calling you twice but you're on the damn internet! ;) Maybe you'll see this post here.
Not that it's terribly unreasonable that you are, though... I first tried to call around 9, so it was probably obvious that I wouldn't be showing up in person. For those who don't know, it's because I'm sick and don't want to drive all the way across town (not to mention expose you guys to the bug).
Anyway, no big deal; I just wanted to talk about business, so to speak.
-
Are we on for tonight. I just came in after a 14 hour nap so i'm good
the offcial project for tonight is to rewrite Hank Williams Jr's song
All My Rowdy Friends (Are Coming Over Tonight ...
to make it the club theame
All My Nerdy Friends (Are Coming Over Tonight ...

-
No meet up this week I have a lot of work to do and I may start moving my shop tonight and then next saturday I am moving my shop so no club for two weeks But every one is OOT anyways and then in the new batcave
-

-
you got a new batcave? When did this happen? Did the old man get to crotchety for you?
yea we got tired of each other. The new place is about the same size and $200 cheaper, and without the grumpy landlord there were at one time people who wanted to move in and share rent on the shop. I'll loose some walk in Biz but I all ready lost a lot of walk in Biz getting the flu and Pnemonia and not being here. I got the sports company assembly thing back for the summer and I'm gonna try and do events and the costume stuff more
-
SWEET NEW BAT CAVE!!! *jumps around* hmmm tee hee well it seems I am gonna be gone for the next few weekends anyway.. this weekend is me coming home, next weekend is sakuracon, weekend following is prom, weekend following that is questionable as well... sooo we'll see what we can do... good luck with the bat cave!
-
I'm pretty busy too. :( Next weekend Sakura Con, the weekend after I'm having friends from out of town. And even if I wasn't busy with them, I would be going to the Kumori Con staff retreat (can't believe they scheduled it for one week after Sakura Con, agh).
Everyone and their dog is putting SOME sort of event on in April. So it looks like I'm going to be busy as much as three out of four weekends.
-
Just thought I'd check and see what or if anyone wants to watch anime Saturday.
I have FMP, TSR discs 1-3.
Ultimate Hellsing 1
All of Vandread, but I bet you wouldn't want to watch those.

Well, that's fine; Dan isn't either. You guys have fun. I'll be in Seattle (or on the road) from Thursday through Sunday.
-
I didn't even try to get someone to feed my pets. That and I spent all myh money on school stuff already.
-
Baby Sugar Bear says we may have a new place to meet? And further rumors to this effect? I'd say come on over to my house, but except for Lit, and BSB, and myself, it isn't exactly next door, sorry.

Yeah, BSB and I have been chatting about a more public place to meet. Dan's place was always a bit out-of-the-way, so once he decided to move we started talking about holding it in a more central location.
Tomorrow we're going to meet at the Starbucks on 13th St. at 3pm to discuss club plans and to create a promotional flyer. If you're interested, check out the topic here (http://www.kumoricon.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=4384&highlight=).

So did you take minutes at the meeting Friday?
-
Well, we met on Saturday, and we didn't really do anything. I got some new info since then, but a lot is still up in the air. We've started to have some activity in the meeting thread, though, so I'm going to watch that to see what people say. ^^
