while doing the post whore thing on the 1337 thread i had the idea of an arcade lock in, a few people showed interest so here we are. who's in???

luckily one of the anthems community is closely linked to a couple of arcades, one in TTP and one in Elizabeth.
QUOTE
The lockins we do are a set time, 10am-12noon ($13 p/p incl Med Cheeseburger Meal) but you can have a private lock-in by booking the place out at a certain time on a certain day.


Date
Friday - which one???

Time
Night 10pm to 12am

Venue
TTP Game Arcade - best response so far.

Music
If it happens we'll try and get some decks setup so we have some ampin music to keep us all going while on sugar high's from too much coke and candy.

whadayathink people??
joker4r
damn im in for that!!!!!!!!!!!

friday sound good, and at ttp
Jutsinr
I'm in for sure.

Date
Friday/Saturday?


Friday's I start work at 12pm and finish around 9:30pm.
Saturday's I start work at 10:30am and finish around 9:30pm.

Depending what time this is on, I'll be there .. (that is.. I'm fully keen, but I'm not skipping work for it!)

Time
Night/Day?


Night, as if it's late night I have more chance of going.

Venue
TeaTree Plaza/Elizabeth?


TTP is only 10 minutes away .. Elizabeth would be 25 or some such, so my preference is TTP, for sure.

Music

COUNTRY MUSIC.. oh yes.
firestarterr
sounds good, I'm keen!! definitely TTP though, I don't care if it was free at wizzbeff, I wouldn't be going!!

Tarantular
lol ive had recov at an arcade b4 the TTP one haha
Konstantiner
I'm all for it.

I'd say TTP cuz of ITG2... but I think I can handle playing DDR for a little while, even thought I'm a n00b and its confusing and I find ITG2 easier to get along with. tongue.gif For the most part though, my fav games are at Elizabeth, including Air hockey (forsee much fun playing against anthemites), and a punching game thingies where you belt the crap out of a punching bag in order to look macho and stuff LOL tongue.gif.

Gabtronr
Well... ok... *ponders* Why don't I talk to my boss when he gets back from Melbourne and see what I can organise... We could do it Sunday morning after St Paul's tongue.gif 6am lockin sounds much much cooler to me tongue.gif

Must've been the same place we had the lol parties at, rofl... good old days... *sniffle*

Fkn funny playing DDR tho... Aw man. Am looking forward to this now... happy.gif

What exactly is the purpose of lockin gathering? Party? After-party? Child-friendly event? Perhaps it'd be easier to just PM me instead of everyone making their own individual post about when is good for them.

All I need to know;
Party? After-party? Child-friendly event?
Friday(10pm/12am->)? Saturday(10pm/12am->)? Sunday?(4am-9am private anthems OR 10am-12noon)

unsure.gif We don't have pinball. If you had any idea how hard those are to fix... *grumble*

And the minimum ppl we need is one, and that is me, because I have the key happy.gif In all seriousness if it's going to be less than ten ppl (and at elizabeth anytime from midnight - 6am-ish) it's not going to be a big problemo.

Felixr

Konstantiner

huh.gif

Sat afternoon is never going to happen... Even if you ran an anthems birthday party, not only would it cost you money but it detracts money from the store.

I'm nice but I'm not fkn stupid.

I don't think people understand what was being organised... Maybe I don't understand what was being organised.

Like I alluded to earlier, I cbf reading this thread everyday. When you figure out what you want, PM me and I'll see what I can organise.
