Okay, so we all had a pretty good time. Nobody got gelato, but Jordan had a sandwich, and Jordan and Kodi debated free vs. proprietary software face to face. Then we went to Jordan's place and played Catan for a couple of hours, which Kodi won by an increasingly ridiculous landslide.
I took some photographs with my camera and here they are:

Good times were had and you should all feel bad for not coming.

The line, it is drawn; the curse, it is cast.
I seem to be running a bit of a fever after all, so all you guy who went to the convention, I hope you wash your hands. Sorry!

Dang, sounds like a fun time.
Except for the lack of brick on that board...

Aw, boo! Get well soon.

Wood and brick were hard to come by throughout the game. I won mostly by buying whatever I needed with sheep and wheat, the former of which I could accumulate up to six at a time at the apogee of my empire.

Biggest surprise of the night: for finding as little value in personal relationships as he does, Kodi is very personable and an all-around nice guy.

Seth: What are you making?
Evan: I'm just drilling holes. Last two weeks, **** it.
Hold on - this really happened???

Anyway, I still have some time to kill tomorrow morning. My flight will leave at two, so I'll hop on a cab to the airport at 11:30. Before that, any of you cats want to meet again? No activities required; I'd just enjoy chatting. Name a place and time and I'll appear.

Yeah, in my case, it took an hour or two for it to stop feeling positively surreal.

I'd love to meet if I weren't so feverish and contagious. Alas!

Was it a car or a cat I saw?
Yeah, I'd love to as well, but work calls, two-hour delay or not. =(

Something which the four of us were talking about and which I meant to post about but forget till now: was this the biggest meeting of PMSians? How many showed up to Willis's Zeldathon and Alex's wedding?
---
"Now I will have less distraction." —Euler, upon going blind in one eye
My wedding was just me, BUM, and freepizza, so it's not tops, but it's not bad either.
But it was by far the classiest and also the event that most honored its participants; freepizza was a groomsman and BUM was the best man.
For the record:
(08:00:58 PM) Mimir the Jotun: Do you by any chance recall which PMSians showed up to the Zeldathon?
(08:01:22 PM) willis5225: yeah, it was Gary
(08:01:30 PM) willis5225: we had a good time
(08:01:50 PM) willis5225: well, except everyone was dumb hungover so we kinda sat in stunned silence while my buddy played Wind Waker and then he went and closed on his house
(08:02:25 PM) willis5225: why do you ask?
(08:02:45 PM) Mimir the Jotun: See post 11 in http://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/2000083-paper-mario-social/57989511.
(08:03:02 PM) Mimir the Jotun: (My last post.)
(08:03:26 PM) willis5225: ah gotcha
(08:03:29 PM) willis5225: yeah, it was just him
(08:03:48 PM) willis5225: technically my buddy andrew was lurking for a while, but I don't think they were there at the same time
(08:05:12 PM) Mimir the Jotun: Discounting him we have a nice 2 (Zeldathon), 3 (wedding), 4 (Philadelphia) progression. At this rate we'll definitely get the whole board together in meatspace by the time Mith has grandchildren.
(08:05:36 PM) willis5225: well we're what, in the low 30s?
(08:06:41 PM) Mimir the Jotun: Probably not so many: http://arfer.net/pms/topics/54636135
(08:07:00 PM) willis5225: oh wow

Well, I mean, Wil and I have met up a number of times (he's even been to my apartment), and if you count all of the Georgians that's 4 at a time.

Somehow I neglected to import that topic into Wisterwood. This situation must be corrected.

Huh, I didn't know that.
…if you count all of the Georgians that's 4 at a time.
Brandon, Kevin, and… who else? Did the Richgirl of RedneckandRichgirl ever post?

"Now I will have less distraction." —Euler, upon going blind in one eye
Oh man, I forgot about that. Kosovo won a revolution during the Zeldathon and the local sizable Kosovar population got really into it with the street celebrations. And we just kind of ignored it for a while because we assumed it was the Italians.

Willis, it seems like every other time you post, I need to look up a word that's in the OED or Urban Dictionary but not both.

It got kinda hard to ignore them since they kept driving down the road leaning on their horns every few minutes.

It was Jordan, Kevin, Brandon, Mike, no? (Though the last one did not last very long, he did stop by.)
