Firstly, I hope this new place isn't quite so touchy about what version of mIRC I use.

Secondly, Guest Posting Disabled? Hot damn. This makes covert web-browsing at work so much crappier.

don't forget he is also a truck driver!!!!! lol!!!

Oh my god ha ha imagine getting a gas bill from ags electricity ha ha gakkkk ha you would be all like chris jones is charging for gas now?? wtf??? how did he get my billing information?? like my address and my credit card number??? and then you'd be like oh right duhhhh uhhhhh lucky that is actually a legit electricity and gas company!!!! oh my god ha ha i wish that would actually happen because it would rock ha ha.

but then you would go outside and see a truck with ags on it and be like ahhh, no way chris drives a truck now with betas of ags in it and then you would be back to square one. it could be like a tv show. like mrs bucket the way she always hosts a dinner party someplace and it is always a distaster WHOOPS I SPOILED THE ENDING OF EVERY EPISODE EVER.

If anybody has a DS or a PSP I'd love to play them since I haven't done that yet.

If it rains I'm going to teach everybody how to play cheat. Also I am going to bring scrabble and suchlike for bad weather. Also Scrabble is hilarious to play while drunk.

Also there will be a 'Dress Like Duran Duran' event.

And a game that I like to play where we all wear stickers on our heads.

I quite like the idea of us all being stranded in a tent in the pouring rain, I love rain and bad weather.

Luckily, since I'm a form of entertainment in myself, I do not need to bring a GBA.

Maybe a few spare pairs of socks though.

In case we need stuff to talk about.

Oh yeah, what is the tent situation? Who is bringing tents, and whatnot? I think I shall be bringing a four-man tent with 'guy lines'. Then there's a big tent apparently, although this may or may not have 'guy lines'.

PS. What are 'guy lines'?

Hang on, if it's from Friday the 1st to the next Friday, that's actually the 8th, not the 7th like I thought it was. What time are we all splitting up on Friday?

Cool thanks

How long do you plan to stay for? Some people are staying for a further three days after the official date.

Here's the craic!

(7) m0ds (England)
(7) Yufster (Ireland)
(?) Custard (England)
(7) AGA (Wales)
(7) Scotch (Wales)
(Tuesday) Hotspot (England)
(?) Haddas (Finland)
(7) DaveGilbert (America)
(7) Ishmael (Finland)
(4) CJ (England)
(?) LimpingFish (Ireland)
(?) MattGoble (England)
(7) Iqu (England)
(?) Ashen (England)
(7) Miez (Holland)
(?) Creed Maley (England)
(?) JetXL (Holland)
(7) Magintz (England)
(?) Layabout (Australia, sort of)
(?) Hajo (Germany)
(?) SSH (Scotland)
(?) DarkStalkey (England)
(4) ShatteredSponge (England)
(7) Strazer + 4 random people (Germany) (2 females)

27 People!!! so far, perhaps I'm missing a few? I don't know who are confirmed and who's not, but this is a rough idea of who's coming and for how long. I assume most long distance travellers will be staying the seven days to make the best of Brittens. If all these guys come, that'll be people from Australia (sort of), Holland, Germany, America, Ireland and Finland as well as the UK. Woo! Not to mention three vegetarians, three girls and a few newbies.

The people with (7) by their names are the people who are, or are probably staying for 7 days. I think Hotspot is only coming down for the Tuesday (don't know if you're staying down after that, 'Spot) and I have no idea of the people who are only staying four days.

Talk about Variety! Am I missing anybody?

Are the two girls you're bringing interested in AGS or video games?

As a fellow female, I'm just wondering.

Girlfriend, cool, maybe.

But can't you only bring friends if they're AGS folk?

We don't want a load of Non-AGSers showing up.

Unless they're girls.

And you can't even bring them if they don't like games.

Fact.

You'll have to check up with M0ds to see if they can come.

As for the cost of buses and whatnot, last time I paid for a bus in the UK was from London to Stansted, and it cost 8 pounds.

Except maybe 'but I don't like Kings Quest' or seemingly 'I touched Ron Gilbert's ass'.

How's THAT for constructive critisism!?!

LGM, who is it aimed for? Is it just a website archiving your work? If that's the case I don't think there's anything you could really add to it and I don't think a joint blog would work. If you wanted to start something like that you'd have to give the website more of a meaning in life than 'an archive of LGM's work'.

Or something, but anyway. Nice site.

I don't understand. What you're trying to say. Could somebody explain? To me?

It was so funny. They were getting all intimate, and CJ was kind of playing along (like the shameless hussy he is) and then Iqu sort of SLIPPED and kissed him, and CJ made this very small, nervous, "Oh, good god, ummm." and struggled free.

It was possibly the highlight of Gilbertfest.

Oh, it wasn't AGA I was thinking about...   8)

Mark you had good luck at work today because it's my Birthday and my Birthday is like a minefield of happiness, step on a mine and you will be blown to smithereens but be incredibly happy because you are in heaven in a thousand little pieces, each one bouncing merrily on the cool clouds which ease the burning of the torn flesh.

I'll look after the newbies, don't worry

The answer to staying cool is to be around me.

Or to wear summery clothes.

Like Iqu, I was excited to meet other AGSers and when I think of Gilbertfest, I think more of the AGS'ers I met than I do of Ron.

Weird.

There is no point in being shy as you have paid for your flights so it would be pointless to get there and say nothing.

GREAT NEWS EVERYBODY, I've arranged a trip to Thorpe Park...

Great news everybody, we've arranged a trip to Thorpe Park, so everybody will take a five mile walk to Thorpe Park, go on rides, get drunk, go on rides whilst drunk, get more drunk, and then take a romantic five-mile evening stroll whilst drunk, in the dark, back to the campsite.

Who's up for Thorpe Park!?
