ATTN: Megameet Attendees & Possible Attendees/Megameet Rally

[Dayspring]

What happened everybody?!

We had a HUGE showing of people that wanted to go out, and now everybody is wimping out. Is that the AO way? No sir.

It's not fair to the people that are planning the event to soup their heads up by saying "Yes we'll come." and then saying "Oops. Can't go."

Let's make this a BIG tradition and a HUGE turnout.

I mean, come on. Tom himself is coming out. And we know he only goes to the BIG AO days. When Tom comes out, he brings goodies. You know that. Maybe we'll get to see that Y-Frame of his. You can pick his brains about the 'Mag, his telescope, his fossil collection or about how badly we're going to whoop Shatner this year.

Let's make it an event to remember. There's still time to get travel plans together. There are still rooms available. If not, then I offer up my own personal bed and take the floor. That's how serious I am.

Get a move on people!!! :D

[Skoad]

get one close to st louis ;)

[Dayspring]

Start one out there. But this is the Megameet. This is sponsored by AGD specifically. This is Tom, JJ, Jon, the office-ladies and everybody there working on it.

So to that I say- BAH!

Drive it! Digitard is coming in from Arizona for God's sake. Load is flying in from Georgia.

Get your friends together and get your butt out here! :p

[Scooter/Cootie]

The Pride boys are making the trip too. And, don't forget that Clare is making the trip as well.

I'd love to see a huge turnout at the event. Come on everyone!

OK folks. I just read Jons thread, and while I didn't say I would go, I now want to. Even if you don't like the way the message is said, you've got to admit he's got a point.

I've now met Jon on two different occasions (AO NJ 2 and A ONE III). He is as nice a person as you would ever want to meet and has done allot to make these meets happen.

We practically begged for a Megameet. The least we can do is make the maximum possible effort to show up. Even though it is a business, you've got to admit that Tom and the staff at AGD go way above and beyond for customer satisfaction.

It's up to us to prove to them that it is worthwhile. If we don't, we get a world full of Smart Parts and Kingman. Which is exactly what we'll deserve.

That being said. I am moving to my new townhouse on the 15th. Still I can arrange to have Friday off of work and drive out Thursday night if I can get at least two other people who would like to car pool out. If the drive or the cost of hotel room was a turn off for you, this may help to offset it.

Anywhere in and around Ocean County New Jersey area. PM me if you would like to do this.

So that's it. If AGD stops supporting AO days, it won't be my fault.

Anyone else who would like to make similar efforts to get others to the Megameet, feel free to use this thread.

PGOP- PM WC Keep. He was thinking about going from NJ but I'm heading out like noonish on thursday and will be full on the ride home. (going with 2, coming back with 3 and I won't have room for 4 people's equipment and luggage.)

LONG LIVE THE AO MEGAMEET!

[Wc Keep]

im sure if army could come he would come from CALIFORNIA!!!

[Patron God of Pirates]

I just started another thread on the subject. http://www.automags.org/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=80285

Let's get serious people.

Patron's thread listed in this post has been merged with this one.

Gunga

[Mossman]

Same, Reo5th is being a poop head :D. I may be able to convince him, but he's got his own issues that are valid, and I still wanna go. I've got a van, and it's leaving from brookline, MA at approximately 1400 hours on thursday. Actually i have no idea when it's leaving :). I've got probably 2 more guys coming with me, but I can take more. You back seaters can be cramped the whole way, i could care less, gas money and lower hotel costs are more important than if you'll be able to walk after the car ride :) If reo5th comes we may or may not be able to fit another, I'll have to let y'all know when i know.

Alabama actually, even worse. I'll be taking a turboprop most of the way.

[Clare]

*slowly swings pendulum

You will all go to the Megameet, yes, and you will love every minute of it..



Come to the megameet and get an opportunity to shoot Tom in the arse, Load style!

(Clare will not be held responsible for any arse shooting during said event) :p

[Gunga]

I merged the 2 threads since they're pretty much the same. Post away!

Also, there's plenty of other things to do after the paintball events. SprayingMango, Havoc_Online, and I have a date with Clare to revenge her victory over us on the go-cart track! Or maybe I'll just whoop her at miniature golf. Again. :D

Naturally, whoever else wants to go along with us is welcome to!

[Clare]

Or maybe I'll just whoop her at miniature golf. Again.

Oh for crying out loud..I whooped YOU (weren't you in last place??), Curtis, and JT!

Some people's kids! :p

HAHA, good stuff

[Clare]

and yet I STILL won! Quite sad, really


failure, as demonstrated by Gunga (high numbers=bad) :D

[Mango]

hahahhaaahah! That was the funnest mini golf game I've ever played! I'm cool, I'm in both pics!! ! :D :D


And yes, Gunga, Clare kicked your butt!!

[jah871]

I will be there, already made reservations at the hotel.:D

[yeahthatsme]

i really wish i could go, but being 13 SERIOUSLY limits my traveling possibilities....

[WARPED1]

Have preregistration, where paying in advance gets you a cheaper rate than paying the day of event, have them prepay. Then watch everyone show up.

[Blazingace]

If the turnout doesn't get any better I might shoot my Impulse at the Megameet instead of my 'Mag. There just won't be any competition unless there is a good turnout. :D BC Rules

[DiRTyBuNNy]

If I wasn't on the other side of the country I'd go....Cali doesn't get no love...

[WARPED1]

They say they've advertised it all over here, but the sticky thread Jon recently posted, was like the second time I've heard about it. The first being over in January.
Like, I have no clue where it is, or when it is. How much it cost, paint prices, motel prices. If there's a deal if you mention you're a pb'er....
All I'm saying is more frequent posts or announcements woulda helped! Good luck and have a good time all those that are going.

[Wc Keep]

the very first post tom made back in january stated all of these things.

You got some brown on your nose, sir. :p

hehe



I'll be there!

[PsychoBaller]

I say we all go out to see Matrix Reloaded during the weekend while we are out in PA. Knowing many people will be of age and will want to consume beverages. But for the other half of us minors, I say Matrix Reloaded as a nighttime activity.

~da "MATRIX FRENZY" baller

[Wc Keep]

i think im going to play a portion of the day with a stingray...

[Butterfingers]

I would love to be there but I got finals and GRADUATION!

You guys should be seeing alot more of me after that.

[lack of grace]

I'll be there...;)

[Dayspring]

Send me a picture of her so I can decide which bed you would get... :D

I not looking good for this. Need four new tires on the rear of the Beast and all the sudden they have us moving out of our offices to another location this week Still got a day or so worth of packing up and moving to do here at work. Don't count me out yet though. I am trying....

[Wc Keep]

phil i think your just teasing us. im expecting to see you there on friday.

[cphilip]

No sorry I am not... I gotta choke up $600 for tires and this darn job moving was unexpected. Didn't know about it until Monday. Have to be moved by Friday.

And that is more likely than the tires.... :( Taking donations!!!! :D

But then again this picture could make me willing to run on bald ones all night... :eek:

[Wc Keep]

lets go hardrock cough up the picture.

[Clare]

Since I won't be there..will someone volunteer to bunker riotz for me?

[Wc Keep]

Gee I thought soon as Clare knew I would not make it she would surely be there... ;)

[hardr0ck68]

LOL ok phil you dirty old man
im not givin up any pic's so there
if you want to see her you better show up to the meet

your not the only one with issues gettin there, my blazer was crashed, my back up car has been taken off the road (i dont know how my parrents did that without my permission) so i have 2 choices, steal mommy's car or rent one for the week end...

so what company would you all recomend thrifys hertz or Avis??

:rolleyes:

[Muzikman]

Hertz is a better company, Avis has cheaper rates. Never rented from Thrifty.

[Dayspring]

Since you're under 25, you may not be able to rent from them. (At least, I think you're under 25)

In which case, Enterprise is the way to go.

[Wc Keep]

i still think screwdriver and wire cutter is the way to go.:D

[Riotz]

You can rent from them, you'll just be hit with a fee. Fees suck!

[Load SM5]

I'll take pics for you Phil.:D

Rocco, can't you cobble together a running car from all the junked ones in your yard?;)

[nuclear zombie]

I wish I could go , but I'm saving up for shatnerball , and college .

:(

[hardr0ck68]

im sure one or two of the junkers would fire up with little or no work, its getting plates on them in time that would be the problem. No worries thought, my crash place is assured and i do have a legal car to use :p

so yes boys and girls (well...boys i guess) Rocco will be there!!
