MD/DC/VA Fall 2016 Shmup-meet

Post by Kiken »

Alright guys, I figure we can shoot for one more area meet up this year. I'm proposing either November 5th or 12th. Let us know what works for everyone.

I think the 5th works better for me but I can conceivably make both.

Do we know if Battle Garegga PS4 will be out by then? I haven't been keeping good track of game releases lately.

I could probably bring a whole pie this time, too.

EDIT: Whoops, this is on the 5th so I should change my vote to the 12th...

Since StarCreator has a prior engagement, I guess we'll shoot for the 12th then.

Also, congradurations, nZero. Now there is an nZero ver 1.5.

Do we want to do Riverside Hot Pot again? There's a Groupon deal: https://www.groupon.com/deals/riverside ... ngton-dc-1

Riverside is always good.

Might be too far away or a little too expensive depending, but Owen's Ordinary down at the Pike&Rose is awesome and just opened. Tons of seating available too but weather getting cold might mean not a lot of people sitting outside.

You could try getting in to Inferno for pizza, or Peter Chang's for Sichuan. Anything else good open up lately? I don't get out to Rockville that often, usually when I eat down there it's just grabbing something at Thai Farm or Sabai.

There was the Russian place Samovar but I was kind of so-so on the food on opening week, very good Entrees and desserts but most of the sides and aps were not great. Great ambience though.

OH, that's another great idea if people are into Greek, La Trapezaria in RTC is very nice.

I went ahead and picked up the Riverside Groupon. Even if we don't end up using it, I'll probably find a use for it eventually.

Making a fresh key lime pie tonight! (Though I had to make an ingredient substitution; the normal brand of sweetened condensed milk I use was sold out!)

What time should people start coming over? Also, should I bring my PS4 + Dariusburst?

Hey! I'd love to see you again too!

Was actually thinking I could try hosting again - have a new place and some really neat toys coming in - and having a reason to actually force myself to clean the place up will help. What weekend works for people?

Oh, coolness! We can have Prometheus play the Saturn and PSX ports of DDP again. ;) We'll be sure to capture it this time.

We don't have anything seriously planned for March... I guess it's best to form this around Prometheus' schedule.

StarCreator, do you want to make a new thread then?
