    Won't be able to make this :( car is not running at the mo and I'm not finished work until 7 so if I were to get the *shudder* bus, by the time I'd get home and get there, I'd probably have to leave for the bus again!

    Knew a free BMW would let you down!
    No one else coming over that way?
    I think there is someone coming from the South Side, maybe EnterNow could be persuaded, sure you southsiders all live next to each other!

    It hasn't let me down! Just this once. And failed the nct 3 times. But other than that its perfectly fine!

    Well if anyone is coming from the Dublin 14 area I'd be much obliged!

    Well, I've got Mario Party on the GC and N64, so if we can avoid the digital tragedy that is Burn Cycle we could fire up Mario Party instead.
    I've also "got" that rhythm game on the Wii.
    Plus there's a bizarre Japanese copy of a Ape Escape party game on the PS2.

    You should probably also include Cho Aniki in that exclusion list, just so there's no confusion (or hopes dashed!). :pac:

    Have fun tomorrow night people! Really wish I was going.

    I'll try to sort organizing one in the near future too. Moved around the sitting rooms so it's much more accommodating for a large group of folk. :)

    I would also like to be going, but my usual weekend of working friday and saturday till 7 and 6 is the same.

    I am going to Dublin next saturday though for a BJJ competition so I'll see if I can swing into town and have a browse around, wish I was able to know if theres anything in rage that I could get but the price fluctuation, I just cant take the risk with only a week to go :D

    Ah I'd really like to, but already have to attend something else this Saturday. Next time I'll try and make it. Had a great laugh at the last one, plus I got to hold a Wily Wars manual!

    Ah it was indeed.

    Yeah the distance is a killer, I went from my house to swords a few weeks ago in about a hour and 3/4 so its not too bad with the new road

    We'll have to plan the next one outside Dublin, not fair to be dragging you country lads into civilisation all the time ;)

    Although, where I live almost doesn't count, being out in the sticks... but, as we say, at least it's not Balbriggan!

    Distance and lack of liftage have decreased my chances of attending too. I wish fun times for those who make the epic pilgrimage.

    Maybe Retr0 can sort you out from Dino's gaff... give him a call.
    Otherwise I'll see what I can do.

    Birth control. Proximity to a Gamecube LAN may cause pregnancy.

    can Retr0 be used as birth control? in his sailor fuku?nyoron_normal.jpg
    Is the Gamecube LAN on tier 15?
    Getting the 4ish bus, someone remind me again to bring GC controllers

    Actually the CDi is a proven method of avoiding unwanted pregnancy, by virtue of the fact that people who openly own one seldom score.
    You're a very understanding woman Sera, you shoulder the burden so others don't have to!

    So, the morning before the Beers...
    Time to get the place ready...
    Nachos..
    Haribos...
    Pizzas..
    Sausage inna bun..
    Hoovering
    Polishing
    Hiding any sharp instruments..
    Hide the good booze..
    Get refuse container ready in case Retr0 brings his infernal CDi again!
