When?
Friday April 7th - Friday April 14th 2017
Where?
Near Birmingham
Why?
Because the UK Commonwealth are the best collection of scummers on site. Also we do a meet annually (and you should come!).

Things to do:
Mafia, board games, RPGs, even a few ball games outside, Laser Tag, Murder Mysteries, maybe an easter egg hunt, beautiful location and strange british accents.

Confirmed or mostly-confirmed or being forced at gunpoint to be there:
(or at this stage discussed it, and will probably be there, because they are always there)
1. Porochaz
2. CES
3. Fenchurch
4. CDB (prob)
5. myko
6. Bellaphant (for a night)
7. Primate
8. Shanba
9. Patrick
10. inspiratieloos

In post 3, Sudo_Nym wrote:I don't know. This Sudo character sounds like a right asshole. He'd probably insist on doing all sort of weird touristy bullshit and who wants that?
I know you are joking but I love doing touristy stuff, especially at meets. It was a shame we were near Blackpool, which isn't representative of most of the rest of the UK. Come back and I'd be happy to go round London/Edinburgh/most other cities with you, I love doing that stuff, when it's not an endless stream of psychics and arcades, I'm not sure who that's fun for anymore.

In post 6, ChannelDelibird wrote:Prozac, sly dog that he is (and also rational human being that he is) has totally underplayed that 2017 will be the
FIVE-YEAR ANNIVERSARY UK MEET PARTYPALOOZA
with all that entails! After a year away in Blackpool, we're back at the venue that has served us so well before and it'll definitely be the best EVER, thereby making it only more mandatory for everyone on the site to attend.

I haven't thought about this at all but I'm committing right now to the following fifth-anniversary celebrations:
  • Every meet attendee automatically entered into a raffle of whatever Mafiascum/meet memorabilia I can find in my room, signed as the scummer of your choice
  • AT LEAST ONE game of mafia to be played at the meet
  • Finally taking the fan out of the cupboard after spending three years periodically opening the cabin door for cooling
5 year UK Easter Meet Anniversary.

I don't want you unnecessarily using fans, also does the raffle mean I might get the playing cards back that I donated for mafia cards last year? :P Also don't you have the package currently?

I put the people I know said yes up top and then those who said probably/myko lower down. And it's a running joke (for me only) that I try and put Patrick as low down the list as possible.

This has always sounded a lot of fun, but sometimes I need to blast off and do my own thing for a bit.
Some of us are the same, I always take a day to myself and go to the pub in the nearby village/take a walk and get lost/almost arrested, Primate usually takes walks. There are buses, and you can always get a taxi into town.

This year I hope to find the forest with all the white blossom trees again. I think it was a memorial garden (there were a lot of plaques), it was very beautiful and made up for the 3ish hours walking in circles I did.

Don't worry about it. We hadn't bought the "initiation beating stick" yet, so that's fine.

Festivalmeet wouldnt happen this year Im afraid. Staying anywhere sky-rockets up during the festival (like 3/4 times the price) and if I were to organise it, I'd probably have to start around christmas time the previous year, if not before. My friend owns an airbnb which I thoughtt I might be able to use, but it's been booked for months (hence the christmas timeframe) and he's expecting his first child any day now...
