Meet Review Time!!! |
|
|
Now that I've actually gotten some sleep, I think it's time to express my personal opinions about the meet this year.
First off, it was a wonderful experience once again. Seeing everyone I already knew from previous years and meeting new people, it always makes me happy. There were a lot of people whom I didn't really talk to much this year, and I apologize for that, but I'll try to sum things up as best as I can.
Acer - Once again, awesome and hilarious person all around. Your devotion to the success of gaming and theater events in the basement was much appreciated. Already looking forward to the madness again next year.
Shade - I didn't really know that much about you, since I didn't talk a whole lot in chat, but I must say, it was a huge honor and just plain out awesome gaming it up and chilling out.
Sheep - I didn't really get to know you a whole lot, but for what I do know, you're very straight-forward as well as relaxed, which is beyond awesome.
Sousuke - For what I've seen of you, you're very quiet and calm as if nothing really bothers you, and that's something I can respect a lot.
Radez - Sometimes, I can't tell if you're drunk or sunburn at these meets, because your face is always pink. However, that doesn't change the fact that you always seem to be in a good mood, because there's always a smile on your face. I think that's why you're so awesome.
Omagnus - Great Rock Band sessions, great Brawl sessions, fun times getting yelled at by you for being somewhat oblivious to what was happening outside at times... actually, I'm just gonna apologize for being oblivious enough for you to have to yell at me. Nonetheless, good times, sir. Looking forward to more awesomeness next year.
Mo0 - Another glorious week of hanging out, dude. I'm sorry I took things too seriously in our Marvel matches at times, but I'm thankful you took it like a champ, because you're still better than me at a lot of games. Already looking forward to more fun next year.
Nutty - While I didn't see you game much compared to last year, it's all cool. You definitely know how to keep a good conversation going, whether about gaming, other meet-goers, or even things I'm just listening in on because I have no personal opinion. Always a pleasure, man.
Dull - It's hard to really say much, considering now you and I will be hanging out more than once a year. What I will say is, from when we hung out at Planet Zero the first "day" I was in Houston to yesterday morning when I left, I've enjoyed every minute of your company.
Packrat - Fun times all-around, and good conversations during Team Low-Tide. Will make more efforts to hang out next year.
Pang - You, sir, are still very funny when you are blasted. You're also still very relaxed and awesome to talk to. Keep doing what you do, buddy.
Erik - While I don't play it, it's still always fun watching you and others play Catan. Also, thanks for explaining to me what some of the courses Friday night were composed of. Looking forward to more craziness next year.
Greg - My God, dude, it's NEVER a boring moment when you're around. I'm glad we finally got to play some Dethklok songs together this time. You're a damn good man, sir.
Garr - There's nothing bad that can be said here, dude. Gaming sessions online are great, but gaming sessions at meet house are even better!! Watching you and Skills get incredibly hammered did scare me to the point where I had to leave the area, but it was still pretty funny. Ready to do it all over again already.
Qwarky - It's been a while since you and I actually talked on the boards, but I must say, it was a hell of a lot better meeting you and hanging out. Really glad you got to stay the extra day and game it up a little more. Looking forward to more of it next year.
Sprout - I know how busy you were hosting everything this year, so I'm not worried that you and I didn't really hang out a lot. For what we did, though, it was still rad. Thanks for helping make Team Sunrise another big success. I swear, 3.0 will be even better next year.
Hito - You're still as gold as always. We don't talk much, but I know how busy you are all the time in the kitchen preparing awesome dishes. Keep doing what you do and I'll look forward to it even more next year.
Dope - As usual, man, good times and nothing but. Our Rock band sessions were even better this year. Congrats again to you and Sass. Hope y'all can still make it next year.
Deni - I must say, given how I've always set myself up for you to insult me in the past, I was rather nervous about meeting you. However, from what I've seen this week when I actually left the basement, or even when you came down to chill out, you're pretty damn cool. I'm sure I set myself up a time or two this week as well, but I won't dwell on it. Just gonna say looking forward to next year.
Skills - This was several years in the making, dude. I'd been waiting to finally meet the man who myself and Idle had been playing vidyas with since the days of UT2K4 and Counter Strike. This was the highlight of my week, dude. You're just as awesome, funny, and rowdy in person as you are on Xbox Live, and it's awesome. Brawl sessions were fun, conversation time was great, watching you and Omagnus go back and forth on high scores, hilarious and awesome. Return next year so that the awesomeness may continue.
Sass - It's always a pleasure having conversations with you. Glad you come down and join us in Rock Band sessions from time to time. As I said to Dope, congrats to the two of you. Please return next year.
Temari - While we didn't really hang out a lot this year, especially with you leaving early (which really sucked), it was great seeing you again. Really praying you can return next year, and stay the whole week.
Seris - Must say, it was great talking to you a lot more this year. It was something I truly enjoyed doing when I wasn't hiding in the basement doing what I do best. Wouldn't mind doing it all again next year, so you have to come back.
Shorty - I probably said this last year, but I cherished every moment we hung out, even if it was for a very small time. We've made Team Sunrise an even bigger success this year with the huge expansion, and I loved it. Next year, though, you HAVE to stay the whole week. You're just that damn fantastic a person.
Lurker - Again, hanging out with you, though very little, was wonderful. You did an excellent job setting up beer tasting, despite me not being part of it for obvious reasons. I was happy to help out in any way that I did. Again, I'm sorry it took me the entire week to stop being a wimp and talk to you about certain things, but I am happy and thankful that you took the time to talk to me and help me overcome them. You're a damn good friend, and I can't wait to hang out again next year.
That should be everyone, but if I missed someone, I apologize for it. I would also like to take the time to apologize for any abnormal behavior I might have displayed or any out-of-line comments I may have made during the week. Next year, I'll work a little harder to be an even better person. And I promise, I will NOT leave at 5:30 in the morning next year, because I'm sick of not being able to say goodbye to people.
