Long time no see!

I've been lurking around from time to time and specially around mittens season ;-D
It looks like a blast with all these amazing people attending!
unfortunately I won't be able to go, however, I figured maybe there are some dutch folk willing to meet up for a weekend of fun and adventure somewhere in the netherlands? (non-dutch folk also welcome ofcourse)

Who's in?!

;-D

Amayirot Akago

I'm Dutch. Where'd you have in mind for the meetup?

I was thinking someplace near Utrecht, maybe Baarn? I think that would be ok to reach for everyone.
We could camp out and get drunk and talk about adventures. Or we could do some activities.
Whatever we'd like!

Alternatively we could meet up in Utrecht or Amsterdam and do some stuff there.

It also sorta depends on the turn up I think.

Radiant

Yay, more Dutchies! I may join too, I live in Amsterdam currently.

Call it Bokshandschoenen to guarantee no one who doesn't speak Dutch is likely to attend - keep it exclusive.

Oh, and despite what I said above, I'd be interested in attending.  Would be nice to meet up with all the old Mittens people and to meet some new Dutchies.

FruitTree

AGA it would be neat hanging out with you again!
Radiant and Amayirot Akago, it would be neat meeting you guys!

any other dutchies? Miez where you at?

I'm thinking of a weekend somewhere late summer.

Radiant

Also, I think the name should be cuter and/or involve a pun.

Wasn't Radiant at Mittens '08 (in France)? Am I getting my AGSers mixed up?

Good to see you posting here again Mr. FruitTree. Hard to believe our mountain climbing adventure in the Ardennes was almost 10 years ago huh?

As much as I'd love to attend Dittens (new name pending) it's quite impossible for this Yank but I hope you all have a great time!

Yes, and also Canada, and Alicante. They don't give a knighthood to just anyone, you know ;)

Radiant: ah yes ofcourse! forgive this lowly vassal! :wink:

Tom: I want to but we gotta come up with a plan! come to Dittens! :grin:

FruitTree

so which would you guys prefer?

hanging out? or activities?

around august? or september?


AGA

I think it depends on what sort of length we're looking at, and what the sleeping situation would be (everyone Dutch going home at night, hotels / hostels, etc etc).

I have plans for most of August, and early September.  So from mid September would be best for me.  Here's a Doodle for easier keeping track: http://doodle.com/poll/9rtck3xtb5tah6xa#table

FruitTree

everybody do the doodle thingie!

I'm thinking a weekend and I'm willing to do a hotel or hostel or camping or rent a house together or something.

FruitTree

so let's just pick the weekend of the 24th of september! saturday and sunday (maybe friday night too)

I say we just rent a little place somewhere, bring laptops and play/review/create some games, drink beers and light up some BBQ!

Sounds like a plan!

I'll ask Viporizer see if he's up for it :wink:

Amayirot Akago

No idea if I'll be able to attend but I'd love to be there :)
