Psi since hotel is booked up for the 2 nights and will have an extra bed in it. Stay both nights if you choose to. I think you're the only non vet comming.
Two nights it is, then.
We all have to sing this, too.

actually the big round building in that video is just down the road from the hotel :P
Can someone PM me the name and address of the hotel?
Aren't you going to meet us all at the station again? You could even call us wen you arrive in Birmbingham and we'll come n' get you.
That is what I'll do again, but I still need the name and address.
Well Mike has that to hand more than me (posting from my brother's on my laptop it's crazy connection I had to connect to the network both wireless and via RJ-45 cable to get it to work...stupid thing)
OK Woo double post, sorry guys but look at the time difference I'm just wondering how prepared for easter weekend everyone is. I still gotta buy my train ticket but I'm going to the travel agents friday when I get paid.
I just have to buy my train ticket; I need to make sure I arrive in Birmingham AFTER I'm allowed to get into the hotel as I don't feel like lugging my stuff around town. Closer to the time I'll have to make sure I have enough spare clothes to change into. That's pretty much it.
Just need to book a train ticket and organise something to do with some fox hunting ^_^
I'll buy my plane ticket this week if I can ever find out at least the name of the hotel so I can look the address up myself.
I think it's the Britannia again, hero. PM Zorander if you want to be absolutely certain though.
Military Pass Form
Block 6: Address
Britannia Hotel
It's right next to the Birmingham New Street Station and Bullring shopping complex
Birmingham, England
:p
I got the address now though.
A bucket of paint for what purposes?
We're gonna paint the town red, of course!
I'd prefer mauve if it's all the same to you.
It's going to be clear paint!
But I demand you bring Tartan paint!
Edit:
I just looked on the train line website my journeys are screwed I will not be pulling in to Birmingham New Street station as originally thought I will be arriving in Birmingham Moor Street station (departing from Marylebone, I found out it's down the road from where Kitten used to live so I know the area afterall and can get there quickly) Birmingham Moor Street station is walking distance from the Birmingham New Street Station according to the train line and well looking at the street map for birmingham it appears so to me too. I just gotta figure out the orientation when I get there as I have no clue as to what direction I will pull in from. Return Journey is the same too Birmingham Moor Street to Marylebone again. I'm looking to get on a train 3pm or so on easter sunday. I'll buy my tickets on the day of travel, £34 saver return ticket.
Bring a map and compass . Make sure to wear a safari hat!
In Birmingham you're probably better bringing a Crash Helmet or Flack Jacket :p
I shall just phone Iceglow and say where I am (which will most likely be the station) and then make a conscpicuous signal at everyone if I think I've seen you. You won't be able to recognise me holding a phone as I'll be using handsfree to reduce the chance of the thievery lol so keep a look out for some fatso talking to himself.
*Looks at everyone's profiles*
Awww, I'm only the second oldest coming. That means nobody can make incredibly insensitive jokes about my "true intentions"!
amratis, zorander and theundeadhero are older than you, Mr. 4th oldest. ;)
I'll be hanging around the same ol' phonebooth.
*is so the youngest*
Oh I'll probably wear my meetup T-Shirt again :p
You're older than me is older than Jack is older than themagicroundabout.
Being banned two years doesn't mean you don't age two for two years.
Wait I'm the eldest again? or is hero the eldest?
Aw, hell. I'm older than you are.
*dances the dance of not being eldest*
So we instigating compulsiary headware for the meet? Also I just found out I probably can't drink :(
Someone get me an Avenged Sevenfold beanie and I will wear compulsory headwear.
Hey I know, have the UK meet up in Australia! Oh yeah Omecle, that's a great idea, yeah let's do what Omecle said, yeah guys, common!
I will spend the Australian Meetup 2007 at my house, getting drunk by myself (and I'll have pictures to show too!).
:(
I'll make it into the train station around 9:00 Friday morning.
Happy Birthday to me! See you all on Friday; I'll be away from home for a few days, but I'll keep in touch with Iceglow if anything changes. I expect to be in Birmingham New Street shortly after 2pm though.
Well I'll be getting there when I get there, I intend on leaving on the busses BEFORE rush hour truly kicks in (so 0630 latest I could leave the house) I'll then hop across london towards where I used to go on a weekly basis to edgeware road from there I can either walk or jump on a tube train to marylebone station buy ticket and leave, if I end up on the train at like 0800/0900 I'd be there by lunchtime. Hero I'll pm you my number so you can phone me and we'll meetup when I get there.
Headgear....*plots trip to camden to buy a Trilby hat and packs black shirt and a tie in bag* So going to go do the emo punk pimp thing me and Agrias joked about.
Psi I've been meaning to text you about the meetup it's all go though so no problems will text you in the morning as I don't wanna disturb ya at 2345hours...
oh yeah military time because I'm impersonating a general for some reason.
I would have been confused if you posted 11:45 :(
It's this weekend/week right?
I hope you all have a good time! I would come but the whole £2000 debt is kinda crippling me :p
Put pictures up please!
Going Camden today and this time tomorrow I will be trapsing my way across london (I have to go buy plenty of caffeine drinks too otherwise my ass will be asleep by tomorrow night. no sleep tonight I am baka) Meetup in T - 24 hours :D
OK guys I have been really ill (I'm not going to go into the fever-incuded delusions) for the past couple of days, so at the very least I won't be there tomorrow morning. I'm aiming for the afternoon but I'm still absolutely terrible right now so we'll have to see what tomorrow brings. If not, I'll aim for Saturday, and if not, Sunday.
Also Steve and Jack check PMs please. Or if anyone on the forums sees this and has those guys on MSN, tell 'em to check their PMs. (No I haven't sent the PM yet I am going to!)
PSY!!!! I better be seeing your ass since you're like the one reason I am buying mini eggs.....oops did I let slip my plans for you. Get better soon fool and make it. :)
Ok last post probably before we all meetup tomorrow. My cell phone/mobile phone number is (and yes Admins please I know and understand my actions I have no problem with any member of this forum giving me a phone call) 078-5841-8088 if you are attending and am possibly unexpected arrival you can reach me by phoning that number, anyone who wishes to merely phone over the weekend to speak to us there at the meetup may also do so the international code change would be to remove the 0 at the front of the number and dial +44.
k guys i cant make the meet up but i am gonna call steve when ya all together!
look forward to chattin to ya!!
Steve just phoned , he's all alone. Im pretty certain im gonna make tomorrow.
xxx
Rawr from Birmingham!
Rawr from East Kilbride! ...:(
lol I'm on £1,000 of Mac in an apple shop with Psy, we're soooooo cool *pose*
LOL I have been kidnapped speak to Agrias about the details.
well i told them i'm poor so they might as well just rape you XD
but who knows maybe they'll let me pay in drawings? -shrugs-
either way make sure to use lube ;D
Sealife Centre<3
Will there be pictures with that awesome rainbow glove from the last meeting ?
We await anxiously!!!! :D:D:D
Soooooooooooooo, Birmingham eh? The windy city of the Midlands, the old west, hell the New Street. Over the last few days I've seen a good chunk of it all as part of the EoFF UK Meetup 2007, it's been great fun! Lets start off with Friday shall we? Friday me and my other-half (that's Miles for those who hadn't figured :p) hit Manchester station and did a quick search for the train to Birmingham New Street, eventually we found it and raided it. During the raid the train set off and we were carried from Manchester to Birmingham in a very uneventful train journey.
Eventually we arrived at B'ham New Street station where we attempted to ring Steve (IceGlow), however his phone was useless and just sent us straight to answerphone, eventually we found them and discovered they were waiting for a hero of undead proportions. Knowing this a poster was created advertising for a new hero to join our armies of the geeky secretness and it was placed by the payphones. Thinking back we should have added Loony BoB's home number to the bottom saying, 'In Desperate need? Call xxx-xxxxx-xxx', oh well, next time eh? So after the poster and leading my fox round by his collar for a bit to freak out a little girl who wanted to 'pull his tail off' we met up with a few others and headed off towards the hotel. At the enterance we were accosted by a Big issue seller who claimed to be a member of the US Army and from the 'Americas'? We ended up taking him in as one of our own, you know, for the sake of Undeadheroes everywhere.
After we finally got everyone together (Myself, Miles, Zorander, Jack, IceGlow, Armyritusitustitus, Pie and theundeadhero) we had a dos about, play on the Playstation and just general naps before heading out to take Pizza Hut by storm, and by storm, I do of course mean be forced to wait 20 mins and be given free drinks. From here my memory gets a little hazy, i remember drinking 7 glasses of pepsi, bouncing off the roof and eating pizza, also we abused the waitriss for pens and napkins to draw on and discussed forums, sex and something called Final Fantasy I think. Then after that we went back to the hotel. Me and Miles split off and watched the Simpsons and fell asleep while the rest went and got rather drunk at the local weatherspoons. Then when they had finished they burst into our room and Zorander tied himself up and showed us videoes, it was scary I say, SCARY :O
So that was day one, twas great fun!
omg d0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000d
This was awesome. I am so coming next year.
Plus an admin now needs to change my name either to "Pi" or "Psi/Pi" so I can be a Red Mage Pirate *draws cutlass and threatens people with it*
Post EoFF 2007 Meetup.....OMG What a weekend. Agrias I'll get around to my kidnapping by the guys later, first of all Thanks to EVERY one who came you were freaking awesome and lets do this again next year. After repeatedly making jokes about The Undead Hero not being where he was meant to be thus meaning we spent around 5 hours waiting for each other....sucked being on my own. "In a battle should you have a communication failure? You go to the objective and wait for the pickup you don't go wandering off on your frigging own!" Kind of comments made there to him. I blew £20 on my phone whilst bored phoning various people, this included badge and shauna. I tried to phone Xander but she was cruel and ignored me.
We got to the hotel and I spied this strange short guy looking at us, thinking of course he wondered what kind of wierd strange orgy we were planning with about 4 guys and a single girl at this point I had to stop and ask "would you be the undead hero?" He tried and failed miserably to put on an english accent as he replied "I might be." So after me telling him to "STFU and say hi" we went to pick our rooms. We were reunited with room 323 which was one of the rooms from last year aside from that the other 2 rooms were situated on the 4th floor. Me and Amy made our claim on room 323 as we figured it would be cool. We also called Hero for our roomie that way we knew no one was going to get raped.
The friday night in the pub was the emo pimp night for me I went with a trilby hat it was a good night in all though Jack the dirty lil boy had a friend come see us too. He proceeded to take her to the other "sharing room", we had a double bed room for Miles and Loki along with 2 tripple rooms for us. What happened in there exactly wasn't disclosed apart from his insistence that he did not have sex with her yet it did result in me biting the pillow laughing my ass off as I choked back tears of laughter after phoning him to ask just how long it would take, (he had sounded very desperate and rushed on the phone.) Eventually we managed to send Pie (psi we named him pie because there can be only one!) to bed and Zorrander with him. This is when me and Amra spent most of the night lying there in bed next to each other talking about stuff in whispers.
Saturday we met up with Badge who took forever to find as she disappeared on us and we found a lost looking Psy as we were out looking (this was just me and loki since everyone else was sleeping or getting dressed) We brought breakfast soon after finding them and almost got banned from the apple mac shop for posting on EoFF (mine and Baloki's posts were about a minute apart)
Sealife centre was great fun I'll post more later this is the brief synopsis of the meetup.
Saturday night chineese restaurant we were so underdressed but they treated us like royalty it was gorgeous food and cost under 100 quid for 6 of us to eat. We then went to the Sainsbury's brought a load of alcohol and some mixers and headed for room 323 where we had a PS2 set up to play singstar 80s and get wasted. Me and hero slaughtered Alice Cooper's Poison. I have to laugh. We phoned Agrias and well that cost me 20 quid but well worth it if you miss the next meetup now Agrias you know what you're missing out on.
Today we were thinking of being mellow but thats not our style tearing around to the statue of mighty Leeza we did take many photos and some video footage. After half our company left us to go home, Jack, Pie, Hero and myself the last few left went to a proper english pub to get beers in we deserved them. After a beer Jack left us and the remaining 3 decided we would do a video similar to Agrias's tunnel video where we walked down a tunnel and recorded us talking general crap about tunnels and random people we did ofcourse use the phrase "TUNNEL BABY!!!" Twice.
I eventually parted ways with Hero about 5 minutes after Pie had gone to the platform. Telling him I would definitely put him on my msn and speak to him when he got back to germany. I then made the solo journey home.
This was a brief description of events I don't have time to write it all out now it would take forever so I will put this here and add to it.
Because it's MY name, I choose Pi. Bitch. Or else I'll cut off your hair and put it in a bowl. This will eat you up, and you'll die. Then you'll be in a graveyard.
It's a good job I didn't stay. When I woke up I'd lost my voice (and it still aint come back) and I am sore in numerous places. I expect compensation cheques to be in the post.
They might send them to your doppelgänger by accident. Make sure that doesn't happen.
Sounds like you all had fun. :D I will be trying to go next year, but we'll see what happens. :P
pixplz
Pictures and VIDEO BABY are on the way as soon as all have been co-ordinated and edited, the footage of my rape however even by popular demand will not be shown on this site.
Yes, it will.
bwahahaha, it sounded like hella fun, and i wanna see the pics and videos too xD
deeeffinatly gonna try coming next year! hahah!
You dare psy and I will tell the world how I spanked your ass so hard you almost cried and yet you loved it. I'll also tell them how I grabbed your balls in an ambush...oops.
Alice it's not like we're giving you a choice, don't make us get Hero to organise a team of us soldiers to kidnap you and fly you over here in secret.
I don't remember almost crying when you sexually assaulted me. I don't get how someone can almost cry anyway, actually. Either you do or you don't. And hey geez, I'm not the one who should feel shame for the testicle groping, bucko! The Geneva convention bans that sort of thing.
Yes, I was right there and it looked painful.
I had a great time, really glad I made the effort to go up. It was weird/disturbing being the only girl though. More girls should go next time, or christ, just ONE other girl other then me would be good! Now I am knackered thanks to this weekend, going to bed!
Amy you had fun though because I was there to keep you up at night as we had our long naked discussions in the bedroom.
After I spanked him psy was literally gasping for breath as he managed to utter the word "Touche" and shake my hand. Then again we'd been joking around a lot and the laughter was getting to the asphyxiation point as it stood without me spanking him.
Oh and if we ever need to torture the undead hero we just need to tickle him.
Really, we would prefer kidnapping babes from Canada.Quote:
bwahahah!! as if that'll happen! dont they have more important stuff to do? like fight wars and stuff? i doubt they would spend time kidnapping a girl from canada xD
It's okay 'cause I like the abuse.Quote:
Oh and if we ever need to torture the undead hero we just need to tickle him.
XD
A. i'm not a babe ;_;
B. i'm not that important
C. maybe i'm too crazy for you all!
(SPOILER)HIDDEN OPTION C. i could hitchhike all the way there XD
We all saw the dirty message you texted Steve :blush:
I'M NOT SHORT! and I wasn't trying to talk with an accent all weekened.Quote:
We got to the hotel and I spied this strange short guy looking at us...
LOL!!! i might have been drunk when i sent it but i had the phone set on auto save txts! I KNOW WHAT I WROTE and it surely was notttt dirty!
"haha i'm durnk! and i ray you save all the gey sex for next medtup. Say hi, ttyl."
see? that was it!
lol that was the SECOND text I recieved from your number ;) the first well we were all crimson from that one :P
As for the short thing, you're shorter than me so short :P lol ok it sounded like an attempt on the english accent but maybe I was wrong. I had got a bunch of crazed english eoff members in the other ear.
Oh and Alice no good protesting, he's seen a picture of ya.
OH SHGSKJDGTSKDGAN!~ well who showed him a pic of me!?
and also! i surely did NOT send you another txt otherwise it would've saved in my phone!...D:
oh god, no more getting drunk for a while!
lol the laptop was used as a stereo at one point and well loki also stole it to go through so it's a toss up they could have accessed it at any point I have no password to the mainframe of it.
Furries, Emos, and Homoeroticism
UK Meetup '07
I made it into the Birmingham train station about 9:00am. I was a little hungery so I got something to eat and then tried to call Iceglow. It went straight to the messaging service so I figured his phone was off or maybe he didn't have a signal where he was so I went off to explore a little bit. I remembered where a shop was that sold vinyl records from last time I visited so went off that way. I also so another around and went to that one too. They didn't have Grateful Dead like I was looking for, but I did buy a Motley Crüe record. Then I went back to the station and tried to call again. Another failure. I wasn't sure what to do at this point so I went off on my own. I found the hotel, the Leeza statue, McDonalds, and other palces I remembered from my last visit. Eventually I tried calling again from in front of the hotel. Still no answer. This time I left a message. Iceglow never got the message. I hate you O2 messaging service! You've become my sworn enemy. That message is out there somewhere and I won't stop hunting you down until he gets it! After that I went back to the train station. This must have been just before they put up the undead heros wanted for internet geekery poster because it wasn't there yet, so I went off to wait in front of the hotel. After a bit I saw a group of five people walking by and instantly knew who they were, mostly because I could pick out Zorander even though I had never met him before. I walked right past them, took a couple of steps and then spun around. This caused Iceglow to turn around so we all met up: Iceglow, amratis, Zorander, Baloki, his furry friend Miles, and myself. They all introduced themselves inside the hotel by their real names. Not I. I required them to use theundeadhero the entire time :) Zorander looked a little like David Bowie, amratis was the only girl and so was chased by us all the whole time, Iceglow had red hair, and Baloki's voice was much deeper than I expected. It's because he's a Manly Man. We waited some at the hotel until it was time to meet up with psi and Jack. I had already met Jack before. Then we went back to the hotel for a while untli we decided we were all "hungry". We were led away to Pizza Hut. Once there we saw napkins and decided we had to sign them, but we had a problem. There was no pen. I let the waitress know that I just happened to be a hero to the undead kind everywhere and that these fellows were my cohorts. Together we fought off my arch-nemesis thelivingvillian. I asked her if she would like to help. We desperately needed to write a message. It was a very important message and everything depended on it. We needed her pen to write it. She walked away. I hope thelivingvillian captures her, turns her flesh inside out, and sets her free in a pen full of hungry alligators for this treachery! I got a pen from another waitress and we drew away so there should be another napkin up for auction on ebay again sometime soon. We eventually wound up at Weatherspoons where I drank these things called pints of Newcastle and everyone generally had a good time. I feel a little bad because throughout the weekened I teased/flirted some with Zorander and I'm not even half-gay, but it was fun. Jack says he didn't take some random strange girl up to his room that night and make babies, but we kept calling him to ask if it was alright to come upstairs and it never was. We all made video LJ entries on a video camera, and then amratis, Iceglow, and I got naked. The next day we met up Psychotic, the worlds greatest walrus enthusiast, and Badgemaker. themagicroundabout was supposed to hang out for the day, but we couldn't ever get ahold of him :( On the way to the sea-life center terrorist kidnapped psi, Jack, amratis, and Iceglow, holding them hostage in a store with the cover of "buying sunglasses". There was only one thing to do. I went in to extract them. I found psi first and led him outside. Then I had to go in deep to find the rest. I stayed hidden, snuck in, and managed to get Jack out without really being noticed. Iceglow and amratis were the tricky ones. It seems they were bait to lure me into a trap! I was captured. Zorander saved us all. Also on the way we went into some store to buy sandwhiches or something. It had a very narrow aisle so me and Psy decided it would be best to stand in the middle of it to block it off. Our timing was excellant! Right away a very frustrated lady tried to push past us. We died laughing and that was the end of that adventure. For the most part of the rest of the day I hung towards the back talking to Psy, except in the sea-life center itself. There I generally wandered around by myself. While waiting in line a turtle dared me to a race and everyone wouldn't let me back out of it. Apparenty this turtle had also dared several other young children to race him as well. I beat the turtle, but those kids were fast as hell. About halfway through I wound up tripping over my shoelaces and falling all over the place ;) We ate chinese that night, bought alcohol, and stayed in at the hotel for the most part. Everytime I was naked this weekened I was followed by shouts of, "Hey! It's a naked hero".
You, more than once :pQuote:
OH SHGSKJDGTSKDGAN!~ well who showed him a pic of me!?
Yeah what Hero said. The Chasing Amy competition was undoubtedly a immediate win for me that was because not only was Amy sleeping naked next to me, she then spent the next night in my T-shirt and on sunday morning decided to kneel in a very compromising position on my bed in nothing more than my top and her knickers....we won't go beyond that ;)
Ok, I've put together a short movie about the weekend.
It's now uploaded to Youtube. You may want to pause it when it starts playing until it has pre-loaded the whole thing and then play it thru.
Guys, I hope it's not to um... "un-flattering", but anyway, Enjoy the video:
Eoff UK Meetup 2007 Preview
HURRY UP! And I mean Bubble Bobble style, or a skeletal shark will appear and fly into you. That'll spell your doom!
Footage of me playing Guitar Hero is needed to fulfil my ego.
LMAO that was a classic short if you put ALL the video in there it would be hours long.
Wow you DO look like Bowie, Zorander! Loved the soundtrack too.
Good thing you guys had fun! Sounds like you had oodles of it! :love:
Any moment with Psychotic and yourself laughing at your adventures is the best of times.
I didn't want to hug that turtle. I felt abused. More abused than during the ear lickings or dry humpings.Quote:
BTW TUH i loved your story, You let everyone down by not beating the turtle. But you got a hug and chocolates anyway.
Laughing at all the wrongness of the comments to do with mini egg wars and Amy's comments was hillarious XD "Mini egg war is a metaphor for salad tossing." "I know it was my mini eggs you were tossing everywhere" XDXD
VENTRILOQUIST DUMMY NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Lol Mike that preview vid is smurfing awesome! cant wait for a longer one! well done :D
I'm going to send the vid clips to Jack and Baloki, and the three of us will have various attempts at making something worth showing. Oddly enough, I haven't been able to contact Jack since Sunday...
Who are we sending the pics to so they'll all be together for the album?
"I'm a Jungle-ist"!
Awesome. Awesome soundtrack. Mike, you TOTALLY have to send me your footage to moi and I'll send you mine.
Had a very good time. Will update Wiki soon.
Well, ya. It'd be a bit silly to have three. I just want to see who can make a better one and use that. Plus, I think Jack has some extra Video footage that I didn't get on my camera.
260 photos uploaded, what a mission, just need to extract Jacks from him now :)
I went too, it is just that no one notice me. :(
You crazy UK kids.:screwy:
Well I just went through my photos and, since I suck horribly at taking pictures, most of them are blurry and nearly all of them are just plain crap.
So next year I shall devote myself purely to filming video footage for people to use.
Also, this event could make a cool sequel to my stupid Oh What A Night! game in RPG Maker...
Eyes on Each Other proudly presents:
that should so be designed in to a new forum banner for the EoEo sections.
Enjoy this...
Extended Trailer
*realises Baloki had already posted it*
Also, check out the Wiki
http://www.eyesonff.com/members/wiki...se/UKMeet-UpIV
One of these days, I'm coming to one of these...you guys look like you're having loads of fun XD
Buckets full.
wish i went lols
im gonna go next time!
if you can put up with me that is!
now thats a challange coz not many people can lols
Oh No!
The Zip file I want to send to Baloki and Jack is a 4.03GB file...
I can't send it via e-mail! If I can get either of you online at some point whilst my internet connection isn't wiggin' out on me, we can try a shared file thing as Jack has already tried with me (i think it failed because my internet died =/)
*jealous*
I promise (maybe) that I'll try and make it to one next year :D
Holy crap, it really does look like a mass orgy is taking place in one part O_o
Thank you for ego stroking. All you newbies out there are wholeheartedly encouraged to turn up next year. Just avoid starting group discussions about FF and you'll be fine, honest! (By the way I like FFXII, but then I also say I like Mortal Kombat while at the same time admitting that it's a crap game...)
HEY HEY HEY When's that napkin goin' on eBay?!
Glad you all had a good time, I may also tag along next year, when I've been with the board a bit longer.
Looks like fun. Lake District next time plz ;)
Awesome video, looks like you guys had a wicked time. :roll:
