    If ye want, I could probably hold them (don't post here that often but was at one of Cidermans gatherings). Sure why not invite people off the internet into your home!

    I live with two lads, one who goes home for the weekend, other wouldn't mind, so house would be free, my house is on the southside, just off the m50, it's also on the green luas line. So it's nice and accessible!

    Sounds good, but here are the catches:

    I've exams at the end of April so would like to do it early April, late March if that could suit people. Study and all that jazz.
    I've one small (22inch) CRT tv in the house, that's it tv wise!
    Most of my retro stuff is in my parents house down the country.
    Most of my retro stuff is ps1/dc/gc era as opposed to truly retro. Not the best for party games, great if you want to play ps2 jrpgs though?!
    Flat is relatively small, but there would be seating for 10ish (maybe more).


    So I could do a run for some of my stuff but if multiple gaming points were wanted someone would have to bring a tv.

    Any opinions!?

    Sparks isn't really that Boulder Dash obsessive irl is he? atavan on the other hand, his antics are legend round these parts. :pac:

    You must not have met him in real life. Even in the podcasts he is constantly name dropping it.

    I reckon the best way to describe him is as a Boulder Dash Evangelist.
    He probably moonlights as a door to door preacher, calling around to strangers houses when they are having their tea and asking if he can come in and play a couple of levels of Boulder Dash with them...

    If they happen to prefer Dig Dug and Mr.Driller he draws pentacles around there houses in a mixture of salt and oxen blood, just to keep the devil worshippers inside...

    Now guys and gals, and guys with gals hair, and non-human life forms like hipsters, looks like an A&R Beers is imminent, possibly in the next 2 to 3 weeks, in my place, again :)
    So, who is up for it??


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,041 ✭✭✭pdbhp


    I'd be up for that, should be able to make it since I haven't been getting much gaming in lately

    I'd be 'game': after next weekend, I finally return to something resembling normality.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,183 ✭✭✭✭Atavan-Halen


    YES YES YES!


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 34,753 CMod ✭✭✭✭CiDeRmAn


    YES YES YES!

    You say YES YES YES, but this will, in time, transform into "Erm, em, well, ya see, there's this thing..." in accordance to well known rules of non-attendance statistics, it a law!

    You could be driving a Fiat Multipla, then you get two shotguns.... of course your car makes you look like a twat...

    Whereas the Micra makes you look awesome and a magnet for the ladies..:P


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 34,753 CMod ✭✭✭✭CiDeRmAn


    And perfect for ramraiding Game stores,
    just try to avoid the sit-in staff as the mighty nose of the Micra comes crashing through the window....

    Actually, your roll of Game security tape is now either
    a- Completely worthless
    or
    2- Worth a fortune to some imaginary security tape collector....


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 53,289 CMod ✭✭✭✭Retr0gamer


    I'm well up for this. However I'm away the weekend of the 21st so make sure it's not on that weekend!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,183 ✭✭✭✭Atavan-Halen


    I will no longer be driving a micra very shortly! I got a new car which hopefully should be all legit for the beers.

    I most definitely owe you a lift at this stage!


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 34,753 CMod ✭✭✭✭CiDeRmAn


    Ok, this will have to be after the weekend of the 21st, maybe the 28th, although I'll be on duty the next day...
    Bugger!
    Will get back to y'all with a concrete date.
    No matter which one I go for someone will cry off....

    Sorry, but Boulder Dash fan talk is not allowed.
    Please take your perversion elsewhere....
    End of line
