So I saw on the MEWcon forums that some Vancouver peeps want to have a meetup but don't know where. So I suggested Janzen Beach, right smack in between. I'm suggesting the same thing for this side. The plan so far is to meet on the 31st. We would round up at Burger King at noon and go to whenever, and the 6 bus would be your best friend if you don't have wheels yourself. Anyone who went to the con and misses their friends already, or hasn't gone and wants to meet new friends, bring a costume or yourself and join in.
So who wants to go raid the northernmost mall in town?
-
This actually sounds fun. Count me as a maybe~
-
I want to..and if it was a sunday I might be able too. but can't on saterdays, it is hard to get that day off without loosing hours.
but take picks, and post them!
-
I'll talk to Zack and see what I can do.
-
I can't go if it's on the 16th....
But I might be able if it's the 30th!

That's what I've been waiting to hear.
One count for the 30th. So if no one else has any suggestions, the 30th should be enough time to wait and prepare for.
-
I vote the 31st
-
Despite the bus going to hate us all that day, the end of the month is a fair option.
-
My vote's for 16th. Late January's pretty hectic for me.
-
17th or 31st.
-
17th also works for me. I'm also not really restricted to weekends by my current schedule, so my vote is really for anything after the 15th and before the 23rd.
-
I gotta keep with weekends on this one.
-
With all the suggestions so far, I'm looking at the 17th. I know nekovamp13 said they couldn't make the 16th, so what about the day after?
-
With some recent developments, I'll probably be in Seattle on the 17th, so that's no longer available for me.

lol!
Same for me, on both accounts.
-
On that note I might as well admit that i have another event happening that day too.
So how about we change it to the 31st instead?
-
I'm down for the 31st.
-
So is this just going to be like...a get together just to hang out?
If so, the 31st would be perfect for me...mom has the day off so she can drive me..
-
That's what the plan should be. I've never been to the Janzen Beach Shopping Center, only bounced off it to catch the bus home. So if anyone wants to explore it or revisit it, we round up at Burger King and head out from there until the majority of people have to head home.
-
So not to double post, but is this still up for coming to?
-
I'll prolly just end up in Janzen Beach this weekend ._.
-
How many people are even coming to this...seriously..
-
I'll be there.
-
I will too. *is hit with a brick marked "Duh!"XP*
-
what time?
-
I'm going to be there around noon, give or take 30 minutes. Everyone else coming in cosplay?
-
The red ninja will be at BK between noon and 1.
-
I'll be arriving fashionably late.
-
Is the burger king /inside/ the Janzen Mall?
-
I don't think I'm going to have reliable transportation for this, so I don't think I'll be there. Sorry to drop out last minute. Hope everyone has fun.
-
Your time machine broke again, Tofu?
DANGIT, I TOLD YOU TO STOP EATING THOSE BAGELS IN IT! IT CLOGS THE PIPES!
-
Yeah. How was it?
-
First, I failed to remember that Burger King was on the other side of the freeway from Janzen Beach.
Second, my intent for Burger king was to be a central meeting spot which the attendees coming across the bridge would see first.
Third, I arrived at Noon and headed out at 1, and ran into one of the last minute attendees in Target.
We went back to the bus stop and then BK to see if anyone was running late, talked a little bit, then went our separate ways. In report, Janzen Beach has a Target, a Toys R' Us, a Home Depot, an Office Depot and Staples, Best Buy, and a Sporting Goods store. If anyone wants to try this again in February, let me know what weekend is open and we'll see what forms.
-
Well i failed. I arrived at the mall at noon. no one was there. i waited like 15 minutes before my mom dragged me to toys r us and then went over to the burger king at 1 to try and see if you had gotten there yet. Mom said no one was there at all and made me go home.
So in short. I didn't get to see ANYONE
-
Did you check inside? I was wondering if I should have sat outside, though I was hiding inside away from the seagulls fighting with the blackbirds over food. I headed out to the mall at 1:30, so I must have missed everything by a few minutes.
-
my mom went inside and checked. I think she sabotaged me.
