Roll Call Post

[blehman]

Sure is quiet in here for such a groovy thing sean did...

I'll see you Friday, dude.

[exitplanetdust]

Agreed. I got Game Over's newsletter and both the Racketboy (8/20) and Destructoid (8/21) meets were announced.

I am excite!

[BluDesign]

Sean,

Sign me up for the tourney or whatever. I can't find a link for it here on this post and I'm late picking up Portastad. We're gonna be on the road at about 6, aiming to be in Austin by 10 or so at the latest.

We'll check in at the hotel, drop bags and head to your place. We're at the Hampton Inn on I-35 and 183. Call me if you need anything while enroute.

I'm coming sans GF, she's sick and opted to play fallout 3 all weekend instead.

The NARP was soooooo much fun! It was awesome meeting a lot of really cool people. Also, I got this awesome Bison badge for my epic/nailbiting victory in the Goldeneye tournament (Zodiac also wanted me to let Sean know that he got his for helping put it together), so that was cool too. I seriously hope we get to do this again sooner rather than later.

Hey Neal, what's up? I was the guy that jumped in for a quick round of Goldeneye with you, Raffaelle, and Aaron. Nice to meet you. I'm looking forward to another meetup, too.

[djnealb]

Oh yeah, fer sure! Actually, there's going to be an Austin Comic Con in November that we're thinking about getting a group together for. It's still pretty early, but I'm definitely looking forward to it.

[Mighty Hatman]

Yo Karuto lives in Texas. You should meet up with him.

Have you been to the Austin Comic Con before? Is it mostly booths or are there other events going on? (Q&A Panels, Presentations, Demos, Sneak-peeks, etc.)

[WriteNoWrong]

Yeah, is that con any good?

To answer both of you, I have no clue. This is actually going to be it's very first year, so there's not really any way of knowing. I do know that it's being done by Wizard World, but as I've never really been to any cons before (except for volunteering at GDC Austin last year), I don't know if they're any good or not. Here's the link announcing it, and their facebook page has a lot of details also about celebs that will be in attendance and whatnot.

[WriteNoWrong]

Dude, Billy Dee Williams, James Marsters, Nicholas Brendan AND Ernie Hudson?

Hell yes I want to go now.

[Zodiac Eclipse]

Let me know if this becomes a thing, maybe the husband and I will have to drive down for a visit.

[exitplanetdust]

The CTX group on Racketboy is planning another meet up for early next year. We are voting on 3 different themes for the next meeting. If any of you guys are interested in attending, you are more than welcome. A meet merge would be pretty awesome, too.

Video of our recent, first ever meet up.

[bobooshka]

I'm down in Houston and would love to meet up at the next one.

[Karutomaru]

Perhaps I should come to this event? When is it?

[Tray Ben]

Zodiac, perhaps you should come to this event.

[WildTentacruel]

I wannnaaa go to the next one too.

[exitplanetdust]

Uh... you guys talking about wanting to go the next Racket meet or the ATX Comic-con?

At Racket, we don't care. Just sign up and you're invited. We would like to know who is coming. You can vote for whatever you want, just make sure it's Dreamcast. Nothing solid on a date yet. It will be in January or February.

A handful of us are heading to UFO tomorrow and will likely be spending a lot of time at the Gundam cabs. Come say hello.
