    I'm starting a new thread in order to put up a new poll

    also if people are thinking of going maybe say so as well

    It was so much easier to blame it on Them. It was bleakly depressing to think that They were Us. If it was Them, then nothing was anyone's fault. If it was us, what did that make Me? After all, I'm one of Us. I must be. I've certainly never thought of myself as one of Them. No one ever thinks of themselves as one of Them. We're always one of Us. It's Them that do the bad things.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,488 ✭✭✭Goodshape


    The central is at the bottom of grafton steet. I think :). That's the one I meant anyway.

    I think the space is better in that one.

    It's what used to be Boomerang on Fleet Street. Majorly done-up as of late.

    Re the noobs... I am going to walk into a crowded bar on a Friday night packed with strangers, in the hope of finding a smaller group of complete strangers and identify them.:eek::eek::eek: HOW?!:confused:


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Technology & Internet Moderators Posts: 19,242 Mod ✭✭✭✭L.Jenkins


    We could wear name tags :P


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 41,156 ✭✭✭✭Annasopra

    NO - No name tags

    Generally someone prints a boards.ie sign or something

    And how do we introduce ourselves? By our boards names? By our real names? Or are we all undercover?:D
    Just so that I don't blurt something out and end up guilty of a frightful faux pas.:o


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Technology & Internet Moderators Posts: 19,242 Mod ✭✭✭✭L.Jenkins


    Don't worry, we'll figure something out.

    I generally introduce myself by my real name and only tell them my boards nick if asked.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 123 ✭✭brandodub


    Will really try to go but am still feeling a little 'nervous':(

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,522 ✭✭✭Kanoe


    why would you be nervous about going to meet a bunch of strangers off the internet in some place you've probably never been before?
    :pac:

    Don't think I'll be able to make this, I'm skint :(

    (I'm sure they'll all be very nice brandodub and you won't be the only one with nerves ;))

    Pre-emptive question, where is porterhouse? No directions necessary, I'll find my way there.

    Edit: Is it on Nassau Street by any chance?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,272 ✭✭✭Barna77


    There are actually three Porterhouse in Dublin
    * Nassau St
    * Temple Bar, across Turks Head
    * Prospect Rd in Glasnevin

    Plus one in Bray and London, kind of far away to go for a beer :D

    We might need a poll to decide which one ha!


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Technology & Internet Moderators Posts: 19,242 Mod ✭✭✭✭L.Jenkins


    Oh great :) So much choice, so little time!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 606 ✭✭✭gibson


    I stupidly only realised the 26th is actually a Friday and not a Saturday like I thought :( stupid me!

    Means I wont be able to make it :(


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Technology & Internet Moderators Posts: 19,242 Mod ✭✭✭✭L.Jenkins


    Come anyway, you can die of a hangover on Saturday instead of Sunday.

    I was just gonna say, for those of us not living in Dublin Friday nights are hard. It wouldn't make a difference for me this time but in general it's easier to travel on a Saturday. Impossible to leave work somewhere at 5.30 on a Friday and get to Dublin!

    Hopefully I'll be at the next one.

    I know - I didn't understand either why people wanted a friday night but the poll was that the majority voted for it

    X-Factor on saturday night? :confused: :eek:

    I was once in a leaving party in town and some people arrived quite late as they were waiting for the results.... get a life....


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Technology & Internet Moderators Posts: 19,242 Mod ✭✭✭✭L.Jenkins


    For those who love xfactor, I'm sure we could find a nice cosy pub that would put it on. I'm not one of these people thank god, but we could give them the walk of shame afterwards.
