Balto the Meet: May 28 to June 5, 2013

[AngryPidgeon]

6) Drinking "games" if you are "21 or older"

I lol'd.

Why are there no scummers on the west coast.

[AngryPidgeon]

So Uber is trying to convince me to go to this. If I can get the time off ^^

[AngryPidgeon]

@Matt+Whoever:

So Im looking at flights on Southwest. There are a few under 200 which is whay Im aiming for. What would be the most convenient time for me to come in?

7PM on the 28th
9PM on the 28th
12:45 AM that next morning?

For returns, Im looking at leaving 820 AM depart time on the 2nd, Sunday? Kinda early I know, but Id like to get back before super late and all.

Would that be doable; could someone pick me up from BWI?

[AngryPidgeon]

12:45 AM that next morning?

LOL

Aight, Maestro is picking me up at BWI at 12:45! Thanks Maestro

[AngryPidgeon]

Err, I don't actually know what the MTA is.

Well, Im just trying to figure out when other people are coming in so maybe I can make this easier on whoever is putting this together.

[AngryPidgeon]

Oh I just realized this is all the way to the 5th, lol. Looking at more times.

[AngryPidgeon]

Ok serious things first: let me know when is convenient to take me to/from BWI asap so I can start planning. I prolly wont stay the entire time, but most of it. I cant being much because Im flying out of SFO and its my personal policy to not check bags so I'll be bringing clothes, bathroom stuff, and my laptop. So I can't contribute to bedding. I would prefer something to sleep in that is lice-free Im like 85% in right now. I dont mind sleeping on the floor, I did go to college.

Should I bring anything? Toilet paper?

lol

Should I bring my laptop if I go?

How will you visit mafiascum otherwise

Oliver legit has hook ups to everything

There will be male strippers here, right? (Other than matt )

Iecerint post a picture WTF

Yeah I hate it when people use my name on site

el oh el.

I expect you all to call me Angry P the entire time....I'll let you all figure out if Im being sarcastic.

I'd say I'm at about 90% for this.

this.

maybe 95%. last 5% in case something drastic happens.

drastic

Dan, you better fucking come if Im flying out from SF. <3 Oh shit, I just called you Dan, thats creepy.

Anyways, Im all cuaght up.

VOTE: Kuribo for trying to hard to look town.

[AngryPidgeon]

policy lynching AP first f2f game, just so knows

DUDE! IaI was scummy as hell and I can't answer for him! Im seriously done replacing into games ever, etc, etc

Ive never actually been scum in F2F mafia. Im decent as town though.

[AngryPidgeon]

What time/day are most people coming in? This meet starts on Tuesday which is a little awkward (why not go weekend to weekend?) so Im thinking about maybe making this a 3 leg trip and flying to Los Angeles first to visit some people and then going LAX-BWI. If I did that, I'd probably end up getting in on a 4:10PM arrival flight on Wednesday, 29th. Would that be doable? Could someone pick me up at that time? Im not sure that the schedule looks like on the Balto end, trying to work this out. Let me know! Thanks.

[AngryPidgeon]

Lol, ok, so my parents arer going to be visiting my aunt in Phoenix and want me to consider flying in there for a few days before this. I want to have my flight locked in by this weekend, but Im working on it. Still would appreciate a general idea of when is good to come in : )

[AngryPidgeon]

oh god I need to lynch AP f2f...

Please don't, I will crack and start bussing my buddy really hard.
/always scum

[AngryPidgeon]

Oh god, the last time I played F2F mafia was at a coworkers awesome boardgame party. The setup was so swingy though, it was hilarious. There was 1 Doc, 2 cops, 2 mafia, and like 10 VTs. And the mafia got 1 kill for each member alive. and the cops were essentially masons and got 1 investigation for each one alive. And I rolled that one so hard with my friend as VTs.

Apparently he knows about MS...He was mentioning how one of his friends met an SO on the site....but I didnt get the Usernames of who that was, I will always be curious....

[AngryPidgeon]

I scheduled my flights.

Going from PHX to BWI. Depart 8:20AM and arrive at

5:00PM (Baltimore time) on Wednesday, the 29th.

Returning BWI to SFO. Depart

3:55PM (Balt time)

and arrive at 8:20PM on

Tuesday, the 4th.

Sorry Dan : (. I can only take so much time off work.

So put me down as

100%

and shiver in your scum pants.

[AngryPidgeon]

note to self: PL DGB.

[AngryPidgeon]

I just shelled out $2.50 for bus tickets to get here and back. I don't know if that's a guarantee that I'll be here, but it was $2.50, so, you know.

Come. There'll be karaoke! (Surely there will be?)

I love karaoke. Even if I suck. But after 3 stouts and a shot of whiskey I'll be singing Offspring or Muse as loud as I can.

[AngryPidgeon]

Just curious, how do you guys typically do F2F mafia setups? Are they all open? Or do you have some system for resolving night actions that doesn't let everyone know who has one.

[AngryPidgeon]

Clearly we need a smartphone app for this.

Moderator inputs setup. Everyone logs in and gets random role. Chat features available for whoever needs them. Submit night actions via phone and the mod can see who targeted who.

[AngryPidgeon]

I'd only go to DC if there's a dark, dank cave I can play f2f mafia in.

Clearly we just need to theme F2F mafia around the DC trip and play it in the museums and such. And all go in costumes.

And ya, I r programmer. I even made an android app for my senior project. I hate programming for android, but its totally in my realm of things I can do.

iOS I'm a little less sure of, but I've heard its all C++ so I could figure it out if I had to.

[AngryPidgeon]

Do it! Matt/Trollie are the guys who'd know, but I was under the impression nothing was solid yet except the dates of the meet.

[AngryPidgeon]

I approve of the direction this thread has gone.

[AngryPidgeon]

yeah but inception and dark knight rises were good/very enjoyable unlike tim burton films

You.....
Come on, 1992 Batman returns was a fucking excellent movie.

[AngryPidgeon]

Oh shit, I just realized Iec is going. Also, Im starting to think liking Batman Returns is a gay-tell.

[AngryPidgeon]

Dude, Elmo is obvscum we should just lynch his slot and save MattP the replacement.

[AngryPidgeon]

No fair, I want more too.

[AngryPidgeon]

Hey guys as our first icebreaker can you all PM me compliments about everyone on the /in list and /maybe list and over the next month I'm gonna anonymously post them on this thread [:

[AngryPidgeon]

So Im pretty sure this is officially "Balto: UN's Cult Corporate Kick Off Party"

[AngryPidgeon]

I'm very accustomed to cuddling in bed with random people if neccessary.

*Fixed for me

[AngryPidgeon]

I wanna get pumped for this.

P-edit: What jiffy said

[AngryPidgeon]

We could get a big group going on skype? I have a work and home account...Home one not usually used tho

[AngryPidgeon]

Someone get mastin to go, I wanna lynch that guy IRL

[AngryPidgeon]

Probably a bit like your picture.

Unless you mean personality, in which case exactly like you post.

[AngryPidgeon]

P-Edit: what AP said - also I imagine you (AP) like one of my ginger friends, very well-dressed and shizzz (but maybe that's the gay? who knows

Hahaha. I usually wear jeans and a t-shirt or gym shorts and a t-shirt. Also I own a lot of V-necks.

[AngryPidgeon]

DO YOU EVEN LIFT?

Bro I am going to the gym to lift as soon as I lift my lazy ass out of this chair.

[AngryPidgeon]

I'm looking for the lift to reach the 2nd floor.

#europeanlifting

[AngryPidgeon]

(nonsexual) ADVENTURE

Spoiler:

[AngryPidgeon]

Also my skype name is

angrypidgeon

as it turns out.

[AngryPidgeon]

I used to hate on macs but now my work laptop is a macbook. Once you get over the shitty file browser user interface, having a unix shell built in is so hot.

*Sent using curl from my bash terminal.

[AngryPidgeon]

Me too! 5ish weeks to go.

[AngryPidgeon]

5 weeks of training at work : (. But after that I get to see all your pretty faces : D

We should do a meta mafia game that lasts over the entire meet. Everyone gets role cards before showing up and the game continues in real life day/night cycles. eh, Eh? Would have to submit actions to the mod over phone or something. Or ms.net, who am I kidding.

[AngryPidgeon]

Quadz, I will fight you.

[AngryPidgeon]

^ Oh, cool. I was semi-serious about the idea if people are interested.

[AngryPidgeon]

Thats ok. I once forgot to command + q out of my private me time session before going to sleep. Woke up, drove to work next day. Opened my laptop up. Porn. On my screen. At the office. I cmd+q'd out of that shit so fast.

thats how I got the nickname 'fastest fingers in the west'

[AngryPidgeon]

People were being serious? In my Balto thread?

[AngryPidgeon]

Rofl

[AngryPidgeon]

what.

[AngryPidgeon]

you guys should drive down to Maryland Live Casino and get some poker going

I would totally do this. I'll meet you there Jake : P

[AngryPidgeon]

The show would be free for all involved, we have a shitton of free tickets. We don't know the date yet, or how many seats they can specifically hold for us on a given day. Please PM me if you're interested and we'll try to figure out the best day.

Id be interested depending on the date.

[AngryPidgeon]

I wonder if someone PM'd MattP with drama concerns....

I PM'd Matt that I will be butthurt if there are no chips and dip available there

[AngryPidgeon]

Ugh, I hate blackjack. I alwayyyyyys am tempted to play it if Im ever in a casino for poker. Usually I resist, but when I don't I just kinda lose.

[AngryPidgeon]

Jake are you actually going to this or do you just post here : P

[AngryPidgeon]

Bah. Meet us at the gay bar. Your wife will understand.

[AngryPidgeon]

I'm always only like 2 drinks away from obnoxiously singing Offspring or Green Day songs. So +1 for karaoke : P

[AngryPidgeon]

You'll be joining me then, right Iec? I'll let you pick the song

[AngryPidgeon]

I declare that Friday between 16:00 and 17:00 is "Heterosexual Awareness Hour."

Haha.

quiet board games, etc

Anyone play 7 Wonders? Im addicted as shit.

Also ^ I misread screaming as screwing : X

[AngryPidgeon]

Cosmic encounters seems fun. I played it once and was only just getting the rules. Betrayal is nooooot my game. I just dont get the appeal.

Im a pro at BSG board game. If you have the expansion, I call dibs on Kat. Most imba ability ever. Ever.

[AngryPidgeon]

TIL scummers are literally all geeks. Im so excited

[AngryPidgeon]

Suuuuure

[AngryPidgeon]

Now shaddup and freak out over boardgames with me.

Edit: and go to sleep, holy crap I thought _I_ was up late >.>

[AngryPidgeon]

Sadly we won't have mafia cards ready for the meet.

/out.


..

Spoiler:

[AngryPidgeon]

Leaving Friday after work! (Making that stop in phoenix for a few days)

[AngryPidgeon]

I vote for the van. Just for the impression it will make

[AngryPidgeon]

I haven't checked this thread in ages. My plane gets into baltimore in two days in the evening [ :

[AngryPidgeon]

Carcassonne gets really boring really fast though...

Carcassone is best with 3 players. Any more than that and it feels like fucking forever between your turns.

Ya I don't have any sleepingbag or anything btw

Also me and Brock can share a bed

I was gonna say that but then I remembered that if I didn't you would say it so that I didnt have to waste time typing

lol.

Me and UN arriving in Baltimore on May 28th at 7:00, could we possibly get a ride?

Yeh! He better role mafia in every single game because Im lynching that scumbag ^ ^ (Hi UN!)

[AngryPidgeon]

Fair enough. I might lean towards BSG over it, as well.

I vote BSG. Airlocking cylon scum all day, every day.

[AngryPidgeon]

BSG is great, just a tad tedious.

Ya, but its hilarious when people are drunk and really involved.

[AngryPidgeon]

I have a really in depth meta with a friend of mine and we often play together but with different crowds.

once I was human andhe Gaius Baltar'd me to see my cards. He called me a cylon and..I flipped out.

Started.AtEing everyone in the game and they all thought I was obv cylon and brigged me. Ugh ugh.

Also I Gaius'd him once and called him a human when we were both cylons.

He then attempted to bus me by brigging me. Screw you nick >.>

[AngryPidgeon]

Im getting in 5pm Wednesday at BWI. Dunno who is picking me up, but.....I have the lovely matt's phone number so I will harass him if no one is there.

[AngryPidgeon]

BRING THE KIDS I'LL BABYSIT

Seriously, DGB will already be babysitting everyone else at the meet.

[AngryPidgeon]

Ugh, im going to be tired as shiiiit.

I think I slept 3 hours. Had to wake up at 430 to make flight.

I hope baltimore isnt hot at night

[AngryPidgeon]

The wifi at PHX airport is pretty sexy.

[AngryPidgeon]

Just landed. Stuck on plane for a few minutes - ppl are being slow

[AngryPidgeon]

Dgb just compromise with me and lynch un ^^

[AngryPidgeon]

fuck fuck bbm is taking his shoes off.

VOTE: Singer

[AngryPidgeon]

this could be the oooone last chance to maaaake you understaaaaand.

and I just can't let you leaaaave me once agaaaaainnn.

but seriously, the Reckoning III

[AngryPidgeon]

So when is the invitational for this happening and who's making it ^^

I cant wait to roll you all as "That guy who got arrested outside", Mafia Kleptomaniac

[AngryPidgeon]

Lol, Neko's role was hillariously op given the demographic.

[AngryPidgeon]

Also quadz gives fucking excellent back rubs.

[AngryPidgeon]

Also I am the king of 7 wonders ^^

[AngryPidgeon]

Also, I'm not sure whether I got consistently crushed at

7 Wonders

because I was terrible at it or because there was such a high concentration of brilliant people at the meet.

On a semi-related note,

Shadow Hunters

has become my new favourite game.

I think I played 4 full (7 player) games of it and won 3 of them. I think I got 2nd in the one I didn't win. ^^

[AngryPidgeon]

Im pretty sure dgbs deepfried cookies were laced with crack. Faraday asked Iec and me if we wanted one then just kind of left a plate of 12 or so for us.

Quite tasty.

[AngryPidgeon]

Bleh, I'm finally off my planes, off the bus and back in my comfy office chair at work. I was in 5 weeks of training at work and then 1.5 weeks of vacation for this. Feels weird but good. I forgot how huge my monitor is. And how much I dislike chairs with armrests when I work. I cant properly slouch into them when they have armrests...

Waiting on my friend to gimme my keys (I parked my car in a sketchy place so I wanted someone to have my keys in case) so I can get outta here after I enjoy this pepsi from the breakroom fridge.

tl;dr: See yall at the next one ^^

[AngryPidgeon]

Imma let you finish, but California is my favorite state to be in. Except possibly the state of denial.

[AngryPidgeon]

Those pictures make the meet depression much worse. Also I'm in far too many of them.

Lol, and ya I know. Seeing all your pretty faces is making me sad to be gone.

Im upset that there is no picture of CDB making the face. : P

[AngryPidgeon]

It was cute how you were so terrified of peeing into the dark abyss that one time.

Also I did half think it was going to turn into a horror movie when we decided to sleep down there.

[AngryPidgeon]

I find it hilarious.

[AngryPidgeon]

^ ok sure but id rather just kiss u

[AngryPidgeon]

[AngryPidgeon]

^ I dunno I think you are pretty funny and you are probably warm.

[AngryPidgeon]

That gif is fucking amazing.

But seriously it is.

[AngryPidgeon]

Im still really amused by that time CDB asked me his read on him and I said "PoE scum" and I could tell he wanted really bad to say "But you always misread me" but then kinda realized that didn't make sense in this context.

[AngryPidgeon]
