I would definitely try my best to be wherever we decided the get together would be. I have a new nomination city though that is along the lines of New Orleans and Vegas. I nominate:

 

Austin, TX

 

Only because I am already here and Austin is right up there with The Big Easy and Vegas as far as being a party town with some great food. Austin is home to SXSW (South by Southwest Film festival), Austin City Limits, 6th Street, Brand new Formula One race track, Longhorns, and a music scene that rivals Nashville.

 

Also I would love to go to Vegas or The Big Easy but wanted to throw Austin into the hat.

 

Hope to see y'all somewhere and sometime! 

I wouldn't mind Austin either.

- I'm pretty much down for practically anywhere in the US as I am now in San Diego so the westcoast or the southwest is a drive away...

I'm in! Vegas has my vote (I'm headed there in April)

 

Seattle is another easy place to fly into but it raiins too much here

 

Give me a months notice I can be almost anywhere in the US for a weekend.

For that matter we could also consider San Antonio. I've personally never been there, but I hear they have a lot to do as well. Can anyone confirm or deny that?

Awesome!

 

What if we tried to get something together for next Summer (Summer 2014) some time? Would Summer be a good time of year for most people?

I'm up for this. Costs are about 5-700 for us UK lads.

 

Also if people would be interested in doing something Europe direction I'm up for that.

You are definitely coming to the U.S. for this Blade.

 

NA is going to have some fun.

I live in Dallas, and if the timing worked out, I'd be up for something anywhere in Texas, and would probably go for New Orleans.  Further than that, I'd probably pass.

After seeing the responses to this thread so far, it seems like Texas has a lot of votes. New Orleans is also getting mentioned quite a bit.

 

Would anyone who voted for Vegas be willing to do Texas or New Orleans if that's what we decided on?

 

If we looked at Texas, which city? Dallas? Houston? Austin? San Antonio?

1. Vegas

2. Dallas

3. Miami

 

That's the vote for me.

If we got it all planned out LE, would you still come if we decided on a different city?

Bump.

As a Texas native, Houston is alright, but to find any worthwhile activites afterwards usually requires someone in the know. San Antonio is somewhat the same, and while both places have some nightlife, Austin is your best bet of the three. If you're going anywhere in Texas, Austin would be my pick, as it also affords people a chance to experience the atmosphere of the place. Killing two birds with one stone, as it were.

 

New Orleans or Vegas both would be rad choices, but I haven't been to N'awlins but once after the storm. There were several places we used to "adventure" to that various bartenders were telling us are no virtual no-goes, as the criminal element has grown pretty serious. Around Mardi Gras time, the city puts on a good face, but I was a little nervous outside of that week. Vegas is great (made my last trip last February  before last for my honeymoon), but a little tough on the pocketbook.

 

Regardless, I think this is a great idea. I'd like to shake some hands, buy some drinks, and put faces to names and names to faces.

July is normally a no go for me, I usually have AT during that month but any other time during summer, assuming cash flow doesn't become any issue between now and then, I would be fine with about anywhere so long as there's drinks and good times.

I guarantee that there will be drinks and good times awaiting us wherever we decide to meet.

 

Thank you for the input President Mudbrick.

 

Any other ideas for locations or ideas about what we might be able to do?

Not a bad idea.

By Jove Blade, that's one shiny seal!

Only problem is that he added an extra 'C' to the end of the word 'Defence'.

Thank you! It's based on one I found online xD

 

I'll edit that :/

Blame the fellas at E-Republic... There are lots of alliagnments errors etc in it too.

Haha.

 

Anyway, back on topic! Let's get together and throw an awesome party!

US is a bit hard, Europe would be better for me

If there are enough people interested we could set it up as an event at Vegas. That would make the hotel cheaper.

Do you get staff rates or something?

I'm all for doing Vegas if people can and want to do it. I've never been but have been wanting to go. However, I am fine with doing this anywhere that the most people can attend.
