Alright goddammit, i've had enough of these non New Yorkers having their S&T fun. There must be enough of us in the NY/Metro area to organize a slap & tickle, right? Right? Right? I mean, it's New York for chrissake!

See most recent posts for updates, duh.

I'd say something typically NY and vulgar, but i'd get in trouble.

So two. I know Gorilla lives in the area, but we're still at two. We can't even make five? What, do all GWJ Members live in Canada/America's Midcoastal Wasteland? (KIDDING, KIDDING)

Well I'm out on the Island, and could easily make it into the city at least.

Of course July is about the latest I'd be willing to say yes to. Looks like I'm moving in August atm.

I'm in White Plains right now (sort of) but in Ulster County when the semester ends, so getting down to the city is no trouble.

So what, does July sound most workable for people? Maybe sometime Mid-July, the 13th or 14th, or the 21st?

We will likely be driving north to VT around that time. If y'all don't mind us crashing the party.....

What he said, although I really would prefer not meeting in the city.

So should we go with the city or try somewhere nearby? Opinions people? I personally prefer the city because, well, I know it.

I would also prefer the city, since anything else means that I to go through the city to get to it. Unless everyone else wants to come out to the island. And well there are LOTS of things to do in the city.

I suggest Dave & Buster's on 42nd Street (Times Square). They have a decent arcade and an eatery.

I don't know why you'd want to do this. The rest of us would like to do it because we think it'd be fun to actually have a conversation with the people you've gotten to know online.* Mind you, there is no actual slapping and tickling. Unless you ask nicely.

Okay, so i'm going to pull an executive decision and say that the unofficial date shall be Saturday, July 21st, 2007. In New York City. Somewhere. We'll get that figured out too.

'Rilla, i'm unfamiliar with Dave & Buster's? Got a link maybe?

*And drink.

Damn Ed, I thought you were managing the Google Earth file now you want to hand that duty off to a third party?

Pred, Dave & Buster's is a national chain where each establishment combines a restaurant (Appleby's or TGIF kinda fares), a bar, and an arcade under one roof. They're clean and reasonably orderly, because they keep riff-raff gangstas and unaccompanied kids out.

The one at Times Sq has a decent size arcade with a few big-ass shooting games such as HOTD4 and the newer Konami ones, as well as a SuperNova DDR. Food is OK (TGIF/Appleby's kida fare). Family friendly, if you're intending to bring any Goodjerlings. A perfect shoe-in, I say.

Updated my homies!

So, like I said, 7/21. Having taken a look at 'Rilla's suggestion, Dave & Buster's sounds like a fantastic place to have a Meet & Greet, and will be easy to find (as opposed to some place in the ass-end of Queens). Does this sound good to everyone? Can I get an early headcount as to how many people we'd be able to get for this?

'Rilla: I'll do some research as to planning ahead for people, so we can ensure we'll have space. I am assuming they'll let us reserve space aside from the Event Planning section, which seems like it's designed for groups of significantly larger size.

So that makes two. Three, including me. That's kind of pathetic, really.
