This is something that I've thought about for a long time. I figured I'd finally throw it out there to see what people thought. I was thinking about what a good time it'd be if at some point in the future (maybe a year or two from now) we actually tried to hold an IRON meetup in real life. There are a lot of ways this could happen and if people were actually interested we could talk about it more seriously sometime.

 

I was thinking that maybe we could hold something like this in the central United States somewhere. This would make travel a bit easier on people from around the country. Obviously this would be impossible/very difficult for anyone from over seas to attend but you would certainly be welcomed to come if you wanted to take a vacation to the U.S. (Looking at you Rab, Blade and Q)

 

We always talk about what a great community we have and are in IRON, just thought it'd be cool if we could enjoy it and reminisce with one another sometime. This could be open to any current or former IRONers if we wanted it to be.

 

Would anyone even have any interest in something like this?

Yep. Samus is half the reason I'm interested in the idea of an IRON meetup.

I'm in the States (California) around twice a year so give me heads up if you hooligans ever congregate around that area.

 

I'd never want to meet any of you in real life if you're anything like your online persona. Except maybe Samus, but that's because I want to punch him.

That's funny. Not sure anyone would relish the opportunity to meet you either.

 

Really you can't think of one person that you'd actually want to meet?

 

I met the people I wanted to during my time in Polaris and Pacifica. Met AlmightyGrub and he's just a big of a douche IRL.

Nice. Where was that at?

Dang. I was just in Chattanooga visiting some friends about 2 months ago.

I meet Matt Miller back in the day. He said hi I'm Matt Miller. I said, Hidy, my friends call me bay.

 

Meeting Matt was fun. Cool guy.

Everyone would want to meet me because well lets face it... I'm me
