I am soooo jealous of Austin!
Bravo.... Bravo....

I am soooo jealous of Austin!



I'm sure you are the only person in the history of history to have ever uttered that phrase (except in reference to Steve Austin... we were all jealous of him).

Eric Johnson (guitar player) hails from Austin so some good things really do come from Austin.
Anyone going from Berlin? Hitchhiker looking for someone to pick him up. :p

Make sure you post some pics!

Cal
You gonna be at E3 Mistryl? I'll see you there if you are :)
How about an East Coast Tour instead eh? Dont think ill make to to Austin :confused:

yes... take it on the road. East Coast doesn't have Eric Johnson or Stevie Ray Vaughn or Janice Joplin but we've had incredible well known people such as this guy!!! (http://www.lucidcafe.com/library/95aug/95auggifs/warhol01.gif)

Hmmm... on second thought keep it in Austin... we'd probably just "weird it up".

*singing* One of these things is not like the other. One of these things does not belong...

Only EJ is still alive...

Never been to Austin but I did pass out in some bushes in downtown Dallas before...

Boston is weird. Especially the accent. My hair stylist is hardcore Boston. I can barely understand her sometimes...

East Coast always gets ignored by gaming industry types. BAD TEXANS IGNORING US BLUE STATERS!
Maybe they can't handle snow
Snow? What's that?

Snow? What's that?



In my last job we had a team from Austin come out to set up our phone system.

One of the women had never seen snow. By coincidence, that weekend (the job was a several day job) we were hit with one of the biggest snow storms... had over 2 and a half feet.

Much fun was had by all.

therefore it would behoove NC to come out and give us some NC love...

Come for the love... stay because of the snow :D

Snow? What's that?


The white stuff that shuts down everything south of Virginia everytime they see more than half an inch of it on the ground at once!

btw I am glad to see you're finally pulling this off, I had asked for it when I saw BlizzCon...hope it goes well for all of you even though I won't be able to make it because ITS IN TEXAS! Foiled again.

I'll get you next time, Davidson. Next time!

Maybe if you send him some pie he'll reconsider...He likes pie! :)
/sinister laughter

I THINK I CAN GO!!!!!! Three hour drive or 1 hr flight from Dallas....but FOR THE LOVE OF ALL THAT'S HOLY -- WHY did you do this on a THURSDAY NIGHT! Hmmm...well, thankfully my job means I work with the gaming industry all day -- hehe...BIZ TRIP! WOOT!

OMG, OMG, OMG! The Men of NCSoft WILL BE MINE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think he likes the pie a little too much and I refuse to be an enabler. I mean they had to crop down his staff photo to hide his love for pie and the effects its had on him. There is such a thing as too much pie, as you can see below.

Fortunately for the Lineage II Community, I was able to recover the original unedited photo through my advanced imaging processing technology. So now everyone will know who to look for at the Meet & Greet! (at AGC I wasn't sure if spam was spam because he cut his hair since E3. Thank God for name tags and cigarettes!)

The REAL RustNC photo! (http://home.comcast.net/~delisim/adam_davidson.jpg)

Yes, there are times that I just cannot resist even though I probably should and this was one of them.

Oh for cryin' out loud, Choch -- RING FINGER shot next time. :mad:



As you can see from the photo, Rust lost his ring fingers and thumbs in a tragic pie eating accident, but even that could not contain his love for pie.

You are not well, luv. Not well at all. LOL!
Anyone else think they're gonna make this event???????

/Thirded or seconded again.... whichever works.
Lotsa really good music from Texas, in a bunch of different styles. With all respect to those affected by Katrina, I think the lone-star state has done as much for music as LA.

Dimebag Darrell
Buddy Holly
Los Lonely Boys
Lyle Lovett
ZZtop

(and Boston gave us, what, aside from that one-man-band, Boston?)
Regardless, sounds like a grand ol time. Hope the NC folks have fun, and any gamerz who can make it, too. The rest of us are looking for a :greenwithenvy: emoticon.
bah come on NY/NJ better then LA or Texas for music duh lol

:( All the fun video game things are always in texas cali or vegas :(

Just one time i would like it to be NYC i guess NYC needs more people to attact some attention (scarcasm lol)
He sold an eye to buy more pies!!!

Snow? What's that?

Don't worry Mistryl, part of my code of conduct regarding images on the Internet is to only deface those of people that I haven't met :)
anyone else a little afraid for the NCSoft crew?
theres a lot of hostility towards them for making a great game but not rooting out the farmers...

hope they're gonna be wearing fire/stab/bulletproof vests :[

I can picture the 'players' meet up now..
people with name tags like 'asdfghhh123' running around camping the Cola machine.

hope its a peaceful event

They should have the player meet & greet in Boston IMO. Then I could go even on short notice!
Just a question...

...WHY THE HELL IS IT ON A **** THURSDAY!?!?

I'm close enough that I could probably drive out for this if it was on a weekend. But there's no way I could get off of work for this. :mad:

I believe Choch is completly correct and wise beyond his years on this subject.

Xanthus also brings up a good question.

If it was on a Friday Night or a Saturday night it would have been so much easier to go.
Thank you to everyone who made it out to the Meet and Greet! Rust and Kyleran were on-hand to chat and answer questions, and we met players from across the country. We hope everyone had a good time!
