Support NeoGAF

[BobDylan]

just saw your facebook

question: have you hosted an event before where you used that "red carpet" because that is what your picture suggests.

 

[mollipen]

Every guest should have a name tag with their avatar on it, otherwise no one would know who anyone was.

I would absolutely need this if I went, because I'm much better at remembering avatars than names.

Most people(and by that I mean me) are waiting to see how this develops. I have to admit, it looks sketchy.

I'll be honest: if at least ten other people are for sure going to be there, I'd consider going. I'm just not sure I could take getting there and it being me and two other people who are sitting there staring at me as I try to find an excuse to run away.

 

[Skiesofwonder]

It's not a prank. I would have security at the door if this thing actually happens (to keep any crazies at bay and to keep my home in tact). But I would need close to 30 people committed to coming for me to actually commit myself to it and throw this thing.

And the date is flexible. The day that the most people would be available would be preferred (any suggestions?).

 

[Scribble]

*sigh*

Only 3 PMs.....

Aw, I'm sorry. I'd come but I live in the UK. Your party sounds cool, especially the cookies, mountain dew and cheetos part. =(
If it's any consolation, I'll eat some biscuits, wotsits and tea and think of you.

 

[S1lent]

I'm can't wait to hear how this turns out. :lol

Spoiler

I'm up in Idaho and have no money, so no go for me. Also I don't want to get shanked.

A whole house with 30+ people, mostly guys, with security, but no alcohol? What is everyone going to be doing?

 

[thetrin]

i would totally turn up if I lived a little closer. I can't justify driving from Colorado just for a party.

A whole house of 30+ mostly guys, with security, but no alcohol? What is everyone going to be doing?

Wait, there's no alcohol? Why the fuck am I showing up again?

 

[hateradio]

What are you doing, alone, in your room right now? Would talking to "others" kill you?



FUUUUUU! I sound like my parents.

 

[whitehawk]

A whole house with 30+ people, mostly guys, with security, but no alcohol? What is everyone going to be doing?

Bring your own alcohol?

 

[BigJonsson]

BYOB?

I didn't host it no, but yes that was a premiere afterparty, and yes I can basically provide the same that was provided at that party.

I just thought it would be smart to keep it mostly GAF only. I could try and get some girls and other peeps to come, but I don't know if that would be wise. And I figured most of GAF was under 21 so provided alcohol would probably not be wise.

But I am very open to suggestions.

Play video games, mingle, eat free food, go to the balcony and answer the age old question: toilet paper, baby wipes, or a full on shower.

You better be moving soon, because security once wont stop people from coming back at a later date and leaving flaming bags of shit on your porch.

 

[WEGGLES]

How do you have a whole house to use but will not have any alcohol?

No alcohol? :{

I thought most of GAF was in their 20s and 30s.

I'm pretty sure most of GAF is over 21.

 

[Feep]

OP, if you want people to show up, you need alcohol.

It's sad, but adults just don't know how to have fun without it.

 

[feel]

But I am very open to suggestions.

Like it has been said before, please have a webcam with live video on Ustream or Jtv for those that are too far away and can't make it, please, please, please.

 

[ZROCOOL]

I would attend this party but I live so far away. (tx)

 

[Relix]

Damn... you know... I could consider it but it'd cost me around 1000 and I need a store to manage. Boo. XD

 

[ZeroRay]

If I could afford to take a trip to LA on a whim, I'd so go to your party.

 

[Dynamite Ringo Matsuri]

Everyone is going to get killed, aren't they.

Lmao, I came into the thread to post exactly this. Looks like a sweet ass set up. Kudos for hosting such an event. If inwas still in the LA area I woulda hit you up for a spot. Looking forward to the pics and stories regardless though.

 

[valparaiso]

everyone please make sure to thank skiesofwonder for his hospitality before leaving the party. i can provide the napkins if necessary.

but seriously, i would so attend this if i didn't live 6000 miles away.

 

[BronzeWolf]

I would do it, but I am busy those days

 

[AlternativeUlster]

meh, get the director's cut of the Thin Red Line and I might consider it

I am not sure a print of that exists but hey I am a millionaire. i`ll do what I can.

 

[Slayer-33]

Watch, like 5 Dark Templars will show up and you guys wil be fucked big time.

 

[Relix]

Wait we can't bring alcohol?!? Wtf is this middle school?!!?!?

 

[BronzeWolf]

no alcohol?

What's next? no girls allowed?

 

[Skiesofwonder]

I never said you couldn't bring alcohol.

 

[Relix]

I never said you couldn't bring alcohol.

Oh. Someone said that up there and I thought you mentioned it somewhere.

It's a potential idea though. I would frankly love to go. The plane fare doesn't bother me at all but I am kinda at rush mode right now. Let's see if I fly from Puerto Rico to LA :lol

 

[SouthernDragon]

I would go

If I weren't on the BEAST coast.

 

[Rentahamster]

You need to setup a kiddie table for the under-21 crowd.

 

[Dynamite Shikoku]

this is some creepy shit, bro

 

[lsslave]

Its a cool idea, too bad its next summer that I'm (planning, shit happens and ruins plans, but I am hopeful) spending some time in LA with my buddy or I'd come

If you repeat next year I'll be in.

 

[xxracerxx]

What are you doing, alone, in your room right now? Would talking to "others" kill you?



FUUUUUU! I sound like my parents.

I am actually drinking right now...soooooo talking with others sounds horrible.

 

[Arjen]

Kudo's to you for trying this OP.
I've done a couple of meetings at raves with people from a techno forum, and it was always fun.

 

[thetrin]

FUUUUUU! I sound like my parents.

What am I doing in my room now? I'm drinking! ALCOHOL!

 

[BobDylan]

this just upped the attendance

 

[Dynamite Ringo Matsuri]

Damn, you oughtta smuggle some Bacardi 151, would make for a memorable night; well, you probably wont remember anything really :lol

 

[Beardz]

OP, you should put a lot of webcams around the house; I can see myself watching all night, betting who's going to be killed first.

 

[thetrin]

It would be a bit pricy for me to go, but I'm not joking. If the guest list was around 30, I'd be willing to attend.

 

[Dynamite Ringo Matsuri]

It's kinda creepy that you mention death and webcams cause wasn't there a guy from a bodybuilding forum who offed himself on a livestream?

 

[Silicon Knight]

This sounds like a truly wonderful initiative and if it weren't for the fact that I live in Europe, I would certainly go.

I would love to meet Combine, give hem a hug and tell him everything is going to be all right.

 

[xxracerxx]

Oh shit I just remembered my father is getting married on the 14th. Guess that means I am really out.


Portland GAF on the other hand we can meet at Eastburn on Tuesdays and get wasted off of $2 pints of micro all night. $0.25 Skee-ball action!

 

[Dynamite Ringo Matsuri]

It would be a bit pricy for me to go, but I'm not joking. If the guest list was around 30, I'd be willing to attend.

OP just needs to rope in Jamie, Koshiba, or thebestjess and I'm sure the attendance will increase.

Spoiler

I'm hoping for Gary Whitta, Bjork or Fistful.

 

[S1lent]

OT, but is GAF loading really slow for anybody else right now?

 

[Dynamite Ringo Matsuri]

OT, but is GAF loading really slow for anybody else right now?

I'm on the neogaf web app on a wifi network with iPhone 4. Shit's like greased lightning. Switching the rendering mode to Chrome and it's still fast when I load up the OT.

 

[hateradio]

I'm too scared to go, maybe if it was a daytime event. IRL GAFter dark would just be scary (and utterly sad, right?).

Spoiler

I can't even drink because of my reflux.

>.>;

What am I doing in my room now? I'm drinking! ALCOHOL!

When are you going to get off the booze and start doing something with your life! *insert melodrama*

 

[geeko]

Where exactly in Southern California is this party? "LA" is pretty big.

He said Hollywood Hills.

San Francisco/San Jose Gaf-Con or bust!!

 

[Skiesofwonder]

Where exactly in Southern California is this party? "LA" is pretty big.

It's right next to City Walk (Universal Theme Park).
