Meet-Up! Toronto, Canada - Let's now poll a date

nrapallo · 07-08-2009, 05:29 PM

Hi all,

Let's try and decide when and where to have our First Meet-up. I prefer the location suggested by ficbot, but let's hear (and see

) your choice as well!

Hope to see you there... wherever and whenever that is...

Verencat · 07-08-2009, 05:43 PM

I think I coud've voted for 5 different options...

I was thinking of a multiple choice poll, but that would have set us BACK more than helped defined THE date to meet!

Actually, I think you don't even need a Poll to decide, it's just a ROAD-TRIP for you and that should be enough reason to go...

We'll see what transpires...

Which means you will come to Montréal on August 8th, since that will be a road trip for you!

I was going to say, the Anticipation/MR meetup is the 8th, so you gotta do another time...

Ya, but I've got "clinging" baggage (wife and kids), so NOTHING is as easy as get up and gooooooooooooooooooooooo....

Yikes, I forgot to check my planner...

Pshrynk, given that both have no votes, could you just edit the descriptions for options 2 & 3 to be:

2. Sat. Aug. 15th, 11:30am at What a Bagel at Yonge & Eglinton in North York
3. Sat. Aug. 22nd, 11:30am at What a Bagel at Yonge & Eglinton in North York

Thanks!

Oh darn!

"Lets now poll a date", I thought that meant something completely different and I was going to vote for Zelda. (Though how I'd get to France is another question.) Oh well, dating royalty would be a bit above my station anyway.

Will Erica Strange be there?

After all, River Rock Publishing should be getting in on the e-book craze..

shighfield · 07-10-2009, 01:05 PM

I voted, but I could have also gone with the august sometime in north york option. Anyone in scarborough / toronto can hitch a ride with me and Andrea to NY. I live 5 minute walk from the subway.
