That aside what times are everyone thinking of arriving at?

My train will get me in at half past 1.

Cool, was just looking at train times & it looks like I can be arriving roughly the same time. Going to have to wait until next week before I book it though.

This. Ulp.

I'll look at transport tomorrow when I've got less of a headache.

Tickets BOOKED! I get in at 4-ish. And leave at 12 the following day.

20 Hours With the Balls Man, coming soon to a cinema near you.

The Cappuccino Kid gave it a rare five anime boobs out of five.

I have also got my tickets booked & shall be leaving in the afternoon this time rather than early in the morning.

I'll have to target an early morning departure - but can arrive when I want this time, particularly as I'll be travelling light. No Wii U this time, sirs... unless you want me to bring it, that is?

I reckon we can safely get a full evening's entertainment from Switch gameage.
I was talking to the lads about bringing another gamey film, a la last time with Super Mario Brothers.

Options:

The King of Kong
Scott Pilgrim
Wreck-it Ralph
Pixels
DOOM
Street Fighter

I reckon we'll be fine with Switchio Kart and Snippers.

Personally, I've seen SPvtW but wouldn't mind seeing it again, I've seen WIR but wouldn't want to see it again, and if it's Pixels I will actually walk out. No opinion either way on the other three.

The King of Kong and Scott Pilgrim are genuinely good films I think everyone here should watch, Wreck-it Ralph is just alright, Pixels looks like utter dogshit of the kind I really wanna watch, DOOM is an alright action film and Street Fighter is gloriously cheesy.

I think Street Fighter is the film to pick here - a bit shit, sure, but it's brilliantly cheesy. As for games, we'll have Fast RMX, MK8, Snippers and I'm sure Drunka will bring 1-2 Switch along too.

My train doesn't leave until 4pm on the Sunday (it was the cheapest option!) so I imagine I'll be about for most of the day for any late leavers.

Again, it is literally one night so I'm sure even if you didn't get a room someone would let you crash on a floor or a sofa, or top and tale with them.

If that were the case then I'd hugely appreciate it to whoever could and of course pay my part of the room cost. Don't get paid till Wednesday though so I'll know for sure then when I have a look.

for Street Fighter too, possibly even cheesier than Mario Bros.

Is anybody planning to buy Jackbox Party Pack 3 on Switch? If not, I'm thinking of picking it up for a session at the meetup.

Having heard good things on The Computer Game Show, and played a similar thing at EGX, it does intrigue me. Would probably be a good one to play with friends/ family.

Lads, I'm afraid I can't go anymore. I hope all of y'all have the best of times.

Zero! We'll try. I hope that it's nothing bad that's keeping you. Stay happy sir.

Gutted to hear that Zero! There'll be more meet-ups, I'm sure.

Not a bad thing - Jo double-booked me for something that's taken precedence. Play lots of games, and have lots of fun.

Sorry to hear that sir, you will be missed.

It's alright, lads - false alarm! We got our dates confused and I am able to go after all!

Apologies for making anyone worry.

Huzzah!

I've left it late myself and definitely can't afford the current price. Is there anyone that would be willing to share as I'd be able to afford half for sure. More than happy to crash on the sofa/floor if necessary.

Meant to reply, but we sorted it out via DM anyways so all is well.

On another note troops, we should probably get to deciding what we're all bringing along. I think Drunka's bringing his laptop along to pop the film onto and I'd imagine everyone with a Switch and/or a 3DS will bringing those. We need someone to bring a dock along so Zero and someone else isn't crowding around a single Switch for any multiplayer antics. Can anybody think of anything else?
