I might actually go to that one.

I will even throw caution to the wind and wear my Slackware T-Shirt or my "Windows NT User obliteration" T-shirt.

or if there are ladies present... no t-shirt at all

The six dewarfs and me. I dont think snow white can make it.

Typedef · 03-01-2003 6:24pm

What exactly will you be doing?

It is rather umm... dark und cold outside boyos.
I'll pop down for half an hour... eof

ecksor · 03-01-2003 6:29pm

I wandered over to tower just now to get a book and saw people milling around outside, and suddenly remembered that this was on. Couldn't remember the time it was supposed to be on though, and saw no evidence that it was a 2600 meet. (and probably wasn't considering that I would have been nearly an hour too early).

How would one actually know in future considering that there always seems to be people hanging around there?

Typedef · 03-01-2003 6:30pm

good question.

ecksor · 03-01-2003 6:32pm

Thanks, I was particularly proud of it.

tom-thebox · 03-01-2003 7:03pm

its 7.02 I am in dnc, its pretty cold out where is the meeting heading to?

theciscokid · 04-01-2003 4:01am

Who gives a ****? Are people not ALLOWED in your group if they work for Eircom or Esat etc? Lame!

sceptre · 04-01-2003 2:32pm

^ angry girl on the loose:)

(I can remember my mother criticising me once for acting like a child. It was a few years before I realised the irony of that being said to a 7-year-old:D)

etho_ i don't think i've ever read a nice post from you

what do you mean "your", it ain't my group , no one owns it...

yes, i really think that would be lame,

and ecksor.. you walk up to someone, ask them , the worst they can do is say, oh no sorry mate, not me

but then again , its pretty hard to mistake a group of people standing right in between the phone booths talking about computers, clutching books etc..

eth0_ · 04-01-2003 10:47pm

I'm not angry, I just don't see what ecksor's employers have to do with him asking how to recognise your meet.

:-D <-- see, not angry.

ecksor · 05-01-2003 12:34am

In fairness, it was an impressive piece of detective work that left me visibly shaken for most of today. In fact, I didn't leave my house until under the cover of darkness.

I know it was careless of me to leave that information lying around on my website, but I would have gotten away with it if not for those pesky kids!!!

tom-thebox · 05-01-2003 3:16am

cant we all get along

theciscokid · 05-01-2003 3:46am

fight fight fight,

malico · 15-01-2003 4:39pm

Wow, 2600 meets... that brings back MEMORIES!! From 1996 at trinity in the cold, then limetless coffee, and guys i still go drinking with now, bliss!!

Phier · 16-01-2003 1:17pm

hey Mal,

Your first post too i see, well this would be my second but who's counting.

Just wondering who's going to these meets lately, and was the last one the first one since it got re-organized under new management so to speak?

I might check the next one out, if you want to come with.

scojones · 16-01-2003 1:33pm

I think most people would agree with me when i say "IMO the best place for these meetings would be a nice little pub with a cosy coal fire in the corner." Or is the majority of the people at these meets < 18?

Phier · 16-01-2003 1:36pm

I agree. That was the problem a while back too, i know tom is but dunno about the others.

theciscokid · 16-01-2003 1:41pm

Well we do use a nice little cozy nook of a pub,

regards age, the youngest so far was about near 20, the oldest was late twenties..

but this shouldn't be a warning to the younger ppl, a bi-monthly set will take place, pub one month , a place to set up another month

I'm 19. But that's cool. I won't be going cause 1. I live in Tralee/Shannon and 2. I don't like Emmanuel - but that's another issue. I think you should keep using a pub until the weather improves.

a nice little 4 hr train ride once a month won't kill you,

have a few beers and a bit of steak!!

or set one up down there

erm, you don't have to like emanu do you??

i'm f**ked then

well he has a good voice and i know what he looks like

weather wise

yeah an outdoor hackathon out in the phoenix park maybe?

you think we could get IBM and DELL to sponsor it

Phier · 16-01-2003 1:53pm

I'm sorry but ...

hahahahahahaha

TAKE THAT EMMANUEL! SJONES WON'T GET A BUS TO DUBLIN BECAUSE HE DOESN'T LIKE YOU! FROM THE SOUTH-WEST OF IRELAND HE PUTS A DAGGER IN YOUR HEART!!

scojones · 16-01-2003 1:59pm

real mature ecksor. I'm saying i won't go cause i don't like 2600 or anything associated with it. Is there anything wrong with not liking something?

ecksor · 16-01-2003 2:00pm

Nothing wrong with that. Is there something wrong with thinking it's funny?

[ edit to make sense in context ]

malico · 16-01-2003 4:44pm

Ahh these fights were a regular thing at 2600 '96 too!

Who form the origional 96 possee are here anyway?

Myself Phier and Acid form the original group should be there!

(Unless of course we're too drunk to go, that happened a lot too!)

scojones · 16-01-2003 5:04pm

u dont know me

Phier · 27-01-2003 11:00pm

Sorry for the late reply, i dont check these boards much.

I was talking about knowing your age, not you. So unless youve been lying to me or have aged a couple of years in the past few months i stand by what i have said.

ecksor · 27-01-2003 11:36pm

Ah, tomo, what exactly is in that box of yours? A puzzle wrapped up in an enigma wrapped up in a tracksuit ...

malico · 07-02-2003 4:01pm

So wher EXACTLY does every one meet?

ecksor · 07-02-2003 4:04pm

Between computers. You'll know them because they'll be holding phoneboxes and talking about books.

tom-thebox · 08-02-2003 3:44am

Hope the meet went well this time around, was a bit busy in work tonight so could not make it up but you know duty calls. I bumped into phier in a night club he seemed a nice guy. I shared my disrespect of you all with him it fealt very wholesome.

Regards

theciscokid · 08-02-2003 4:31am

the meet went very good thank you

new pics are up by the way...

hmm, you work in a club - tommo the lad?

Phier · 08-02-2003 4:19pm

Geeks have social life's too yaknow!

Yes, if tom put aside the ego occasionaly he might actualy be - dare i say it - sound.

Shame i couldnt make it to the meet but last night was a friend of mine's 21st. What did ya's get up to?

Couple of points to note:
1) Run DOS run t-shirt's are so 1990s!
2) Tom works for M$

theciscokid · 08-02-2003 4:33pm

yeah the meet was good fun,
