Spring 2014 MD/VA/DC Shmeet

Post by Kiken »

Minzoku and I are all moved (for the most part) into our new apartment in Germantown... so I guess we can start planning the next shmupmeet. We have two new releases coming out towards the end of April so how about we shoot for May 3rd or 10th?

We certainly have plenty of eating options close by in this area as well.

Sounds good to me. I'm usually a deadbeat but I'll try to play more this time!

Need to double check some things but I don't think I have anything going on those weekends.

Food should be Silk Road, Uzbek place right next to dogfish. It's good stuff, cheap too.

It doesn't look like I have anything planned those days yet either.

EDIT: Actually, I'm most likely unavailable on the 10th on account of possible travel for Mother's Day weekend, so a vote for May 3 for me.

Yup, it's a good place. They have dumplings.

Hopefully we can get them to hint we are ordering too many dumplings!

3rd or 10th is ok with me. Maybe a slight preference for the 3rd since I start a new job on the 5th and I dunno if I'll have to go out of town that week (but I can be back in time for the 10th anyways)

If the third is working better for people, let's do the third.

It's still Comcast, same router/modem. Not really sure there's a difference.

Any day is good for me. I finally got a car so I can just drive down whenever.

I wanna bring down the big VGA PVM for some 360 and Dreamcast shmupping.

I did get the CombatZeal/Pengo disc in yesterday. Looks like it might be quite fun for multiple players.

See everyone tomorrow! Note that we have a smaller couch now (sofa bed), so StarCreator might have some trouble falling asleep there :roll:

Unless we pull it out into bed-mode.

Then he'll be buried in five blankets!


BTW d00ds, when you pull into the development [facing the main office], turn right, we're the building all the way at the end before turning the corner. There should be NO issue with parking, either =)

I'm finishing moving some stuff (changed places this week) so I'll probably role in around 5-ish.

No, but halfway through eating them Dan and I stopped and tried to figure out how eating one dumpling was so exhausting. Those things took work.

Those were the bao doing it :? ...maybe the coupon really DID mean "FREE JUICY DUMPLING" (singular), though??

Random question: Did one of you guys apply for a job at a pro video solutions company (in the MD area) this week?
