Potentially, anyway.  This is just a rough concept for now, but it could become an actual event.  The idea is to get a bunch of people together and do something more than a dinner or bar get-together -- like perhaps our own mini-convention.  There would be multiplayer competitions, previews of unreleased campaigns, and lots of pizza.

So what I need to know from y'all is how many of you would attend.  It would only be worth doing something big and complicated if we got a lot of people; if only two people show up we won't get a good return on investment.  Vote in the poll as to whether you'd plan on coming if we announced an actual event.

At this point there's no firm date or location; those will be decided based on the responses in this thread.  We may choose to piggy-back on some other gaming convention in the DC area (yes, there are a few around) to bootstrap the organization.

Like I said on IRC I'll try to work some leave around it.  This actually sounds like a fun time. I mean, I'm not huge on gaming conventions or anything, but DC's always a great place to visit.

Axem -  I don't know what I'll do with my life now. Maybe I'll become a Nun, or take up Macrame. But where ever I go... I will remember you!
Axem - Sorry to post again when I said I was leaving for good, but something was nagging me. I don't want to say it in a way that shames the campaign but I think we can all agree it is actually.. incomplete. It is missing... Voice Acting.
Quanto - I for one would love to lend my beautiful singing voice into this wholesome project.
Nuclear1 - I want a duet.
AndrewofDoom - Make it a trio!

It depends a lot on the timing and what exactly is planned. I like the idea of a LAN or something like that (just getting together wouldn't be much of a draw for me). I probably won't be free regularly until the summer, although I will be in that area a few times before then for other things.

Idunno, maybe.

Edit: sure, why not?

I think the previews of unreleased campaigns would be fun too.

If DC == District of Columbia, sure. I could go as long as it happens on a weekend. Oh, and hopefully if computers are provided. I can bring my own, but that would suck. I've been around here for a while, but I don't really post.

Living 5 minutes from DC, I'm down for this. :)  Some sort of LAN would be fun, and if there's enough of us interested and over 21 hitting a bar sounds good too.

Thinking about transportation, the metro would be a good bet for anything in the DC/metro area, or if enough of us have access to cars, maybe we can carpool as well.

When in the year would this be?

Spring Break or late June-July might be a safe bet, considering college students.

I need to know what would work best for the 11 who voted.

  
Um... Any time after mid-June until mid August is good, because I don't have school and I go on vacation for two weeks in August.

Possibly significant point... I turn 21 in March, so before that I'm not drinking age...

It appears mid summer would be preferred for most people? I don't mind either way.
