Thread: The Annual Big Meet

    The Annual Big Meet

    ok now that there has been so much crap about the national, lets do what Kymmy said and not call it the national but The Annual Big Meet or something along those lines. People can put in sujestions as to the loactions. We can list the locations and just work our way through them, with a different one each year. That way everyone gets thought of and noone gets left out. If there are only 4 or 5 ideas then we just rotate those places. Then we can still have our regional meets and whatever else.

    Please can i have some opinions on this idea and not start another fight.

    We could call it "AT Bash 08" ( I know we're not all on AT's but it scans nicely...)

    I'm going on a trip!

    Or to suggest another option, we could have a Spring Meet (April or May) and an Autumn Meet (September, say). We'd be able to cram in loads more venues that way.

    Also most people would have the choice of one meeting that might not be too far away and maybe a second meeting that's further away and somewhere they may not have been before.

    Yeah and if we take Jaqueslemac's suggestion of the two seasons but use the American Fall instead of Autumn, we can have S-off and F-off.

    Some people seem to Fall-Off quite enough without having a dedicated event!

    Me too! Actually rather than arguing/discussing the location forever and a day, I think the people organising the do should have the final say on the location. If Chad is organising it, he should look at the pole, look at the comments and choose somewhere. Then we all shut up and turn up.

    I can barely organise my own life, let alone a meet up, so I'll just go with the flow.
