Hey guys, a bunch of us were discussing doing a meet up for the northeast out of someone's basement in august or september. This would be a small event, most likely only 10-15 people. Currently the main thing we would need to make this happen is someone in the northeast who could host us. I would probably be able to host but that wouldn't be ideal seeing as I am in Maryland and most of those interested are in the NY area. If anyone is down to host please let me know so I can start coordinating things. Also if you are just interested in attending let me know.

I will be picking up Naegleria from the airport around 18:00 local time on the 18th and Naxhpl on the same day i think around 20:00 both from Chicago O'hare. If anyone else is landing around the same time as them please let me know and i may be able to take you as well.

I am driving a 2010 nissan cube so I can comfortably fit 3 people that aren't me with luggage.

Anyone else who is driving in and would be willing to help people out with airport runs should post in this thread as well.

If anyone arriving on the 18th is interested in helping myself and Naegleria get the stream room setup this is the place to let us know. Setup will range from running cables and testing equipment to arranging tables and chairs and possibly even carrying a couch from the goodwill right up the street.

Once I have an idea of who is willing to help out I will let everyone know roughly what time we will begin setup and who to talk to about what tasks need to be done.

Hey everyone, we are going to need all of the runners to hop in here and give us a list of what you need to do your run so we can make sure no runs end up with missing consoles etc.
I will start us out with an example of what i am looking for.

Run: Berenstain Bears Camping Adventure

Required equipment: game cart, Sega Genesis, Genesis controller, CRT TV

Equipment I will bring: game cart, CRT TV

Dates i will be attending: May 18th-23rd

Can the marathon use my equipment for other runs: Yes


If we can get everyone to break their runs down like this it will allow us to identify who will be bringing consoles and if we will be missing anything we need which will go a long way in helping those of us planning the marathon and doing set up on the 18th.

For anyone who chooses to allow us to use their consoles and other equipment for the marathon, I will be bringing masking tape and sharpies to label each item with and will be keeping a spreadsheet to track all gear coming in and out of the stream room.

Thanks,
