Possible Mini SubSim gathering?
 
I really, REALLY, miss the interaction that went on at SubSim Meet 2008.
:rock:

I am interested in seeing if We near the Ohio area could get a small gathering together.

Just a day at the very lest where anyone within driveing range could meet face to face and tell lies, tall tales, and whatever.
:haha:

What do you Ohio people think?
:hmmm:

nikimcbee 10-29-11 03:22 PM

How 'bout Chicago?

nikimcbee 10-29-11 03:25 PM

I'm still trying to get Jim and Tarjak to show up again.:hmmm: We had a great time at last year's event at August's house.

Madox58 10-29-11 03:26 PM

That's not Ohio last time I checked.
:haha:

But I will put up $100 dollars for the one that travels the greatest distance to whereever We do this.

nikimcbee 10-29-11 03:27 PM

Go to Portland, Personal tour of PT-boat, Sprucegoose, USS Blueback. Plus "Busters" Texas BBQ.:hmmm:

Let me check my map.
Lebensraum for Ohio?:hmmm:

Well, You should do a 'Your Area' Mini SubSim meet.
That's why I asked about just Ohio area and near members.
Gas prices and such are reducing our travel ranges.
By breaking down to say a State area?
It would make it easier for those that can't afford a World Wide Meet.

Even just a day meeting is worth the effort.

You have totally lost me on that.
:88)

I'd think Berlin, Ohio would be Cool for several reasons myself.

Herr-Berbunch 10-29-11 03:53 PM

Lebensraum means Living Room, and was Hitler's excuse for expanding Germany's room to live. Hitler wasn't the first to use it, but I think he's the most (in)famous for it.

I think McBee is suggesting Ohio expands it's area to include Chicago or Portland.


The public service announcment has been brought to you by Herr-Berbunch, who even for a hundred bucks wouldn't be able to make it to Ohio, Chicago, or Portland - even for a Buster's Texas BBQ :D

Madox58 10-29-11 03:59 PM

If it's expanded to include other areas?
It's no longer a Mini-Meet.
Besides, have you driven from Ohio to Chicago lately?
One word.
SUCKS!!

And I'm amazed the SUCKS actually went throught!
I guess the filter is smart enuff to know driveing from Ohio to Chicago does SUCK!

Neither of us have yet gotten over the trauma of meeting you last time...especially after your antics at the TexMex restaurant hat night :DL

Well, depends on when/where we're talking. I don't/can't really drive, but if there's, say, more than 5 regulars that show up, there are a few Navy attractions to look at and it's not too too soon, I would be willing to bus in.

Although to be honest, I'm kind of holding on to my cash for a big Subsim meet, maybe sometime next year? I think latest talk of it involved something on the West Coast, possibly?

Jimbuna 10-29-11 05:31 PM

West coast!! :o

Surely it's Londons turn.

Sledgehammer427 10-29-11 10:56 PM

Surely it is Jim, and I can only hope I can make it to London when that day comes.

Now that I'm living in the northeast I can assist with planning if it comes this way again. I'll even be able to provide transportation to some extent.

but that is if it makes its way up here again.

Sure did enjoy last years meet! :up:

CCIP 10-29-11 11:07 PM

I meant for the next one in North America, whenever that happens. Right now going to Britain is not very likely for me, sadly. Although who knows, maybe by the time we get around to it, that'll change...
