I wish I could come for this. Is there any chance that folks on the south eastern US (Virginia) would have an interest on having a similar event?

Pffft, 16th birthday....Board games....daughter....nerds....

Why is there any question where your priorities lie?!

I tell ya, when real life gets in the way of an internet board game trying to break into real life, something is terribly wrong :!:

Sounds like there are a few people heading to this, I hope it works out!

I am still trying to work out how I can swing in a detour to Melbourne on a Sydney to Perth drive.

44 hours of driving in the car with NO internet- add in 2 short sleeps makes it about 54 hours all up... and thats just one way...have to do a return trip..... I'm already having internet withdrawals and its still a year away :ugeek:

Wouldn't it be cheaper to fly over, with the fuel price being the way it is?

cheaper and quicker

But I love that drive from east to west and back, its an adventure in itself.

Last nullabour crossing I eyeballed and eagle. we drove passed it sitting on a road kill (dead roo) and it would have been no more than 30cm from the side of the car as I slowly crept by. It didnt show any fear, instead it opened its wings to try and scare us off.

I saw and said mothing

I said "nothing" too..... :oops:

the time zone difference will present problems too....but you could play from Perth TeeGee :roll:

...and going to the Casino without you wont be the same...but we will just have to battle on...

I might head down, I'm a Ris.. err CC fanatic and I just found this site the other day. I'm definitely going premium, seeing that finally my lust has been sated. You guys sure plan ahead.

i just mean the nature of CC players in general!!! can you imagine a speed freestyle game with the guys in the same rule? someone thinks someones tactics are cheating, someone calls someone a wanker in the game chat.. BOOM!!! someone hit upside the head with a laptop and lack is flying to do larry king live defending his site!! so damn cool...-0

I bet half of the extreme speed freestyle nerds don't have the guts to call someone they don't know a wanker when they are in the same room as them.

I think that maybe they should set up a thumb wrestling ring for those nerds who got beef to fight it out mano a mano!
