Spring 2015 MD/VA/DC Shmupmeet

Post by Kiken »

I know I mentioned this during Magfest to those who attended and seeing as we're already in February, I figured we might as well set up our next meet-up date. How is sometime in March sounding for everyone?

I have no idea but I would recommend Riverside Hotpot as a good place to eat. Sheba for Ethiopian is always a possible option as well, little farther away.

I would not recommend Paladar because despite the food being pretty good and the drinks being very good, it's crazy packed even on a Tuesday. Tons of new stuff going up in that new off-Rio area.

Coastal Flats is probably my favorite restaurant in there. Just as good as I remember the Tyson's location being, though I feel like maybe they skimp on bread a bit.

I'm still up for it. We haven't decided what we're going to eat yet though.

I might bring some pie. We need to eat said pie at 9:26 PM. For reasons.

Will you be awake for pie then? =p

Also, word of warning, they came and installed these shitty dim-lights-that-get-brighter in the bathroom like what the Gaylord has in the hotel rooms. There's still the extra lamp if you need to see to aim, though.

Thanks everyone for stopping by. Apparently the highlights this time were:
1. How amazing Galaxy Fight is.
2. Gwyrgyn still had his Ibara PCB.
3. The Outzone PCB is on its last legs.

4. We didn't actually obtain any pie
5. Extra-spicy hot pot broth has a significant splash radius
6. Silhouette Mirage is hard

Looking forward to the next Fightersmeet!

Silhouette Mirage is actually pretty easy it just has weird controls and I don't remember how to beat that one stupid boss.

Actually the last stage in general is kind of hard but mostly it's just kind of a long game.
