Pets are very encouraged btw. I want to meet them all.THIS^^
ANers, please note that this meetup is being organised on Victorian time (AEDT), so if you're tagging along from Queensland, your times will be an hour earlier!
I'll do my best to make it!I'm really keen to play among us with actual people I know if that's something people have. Gonna have to find some other way to kill people given we won't have a frisbee this time
could do scribble.io or that type of thing maybe?

SHOW ME THE PETSSSS
So keen! Lesgoooo haha :D
Can't wait to finally meet everyone! ;D
A Kahoot would be a fun game to play and everyone could join given that among us has a limited player capacity.
Pets are a compulsory invite hehe ;)

Can I come even though I don’t really know anyone here
HYPE!
Since it is on zoom we need everyone to bring
-Clix
-Grainwaves
-Kilbaha Specialist Maths exams
-A Frisbee
-Sovereign Hill lollies
Let me know if I forgot anything :P
also, someone needs to turn up at the exact moment everyone else is leaving :P
... also, a dodgy memory, especially when remembering names. :P
HYPE!That ONE year I went to SovHill and brought jars of lollies because I happened to buy a load of them and you remember 😂

This isn't exactly how I envisioned my first AN meetup...But it's better than nothing!I don't think there will be a strict structure to the meetup - but the ideas that have been floated so far are; playing among us, a kahoot and really any other game that everyone is able to play. It could even be no games and just talking. Still taking more suggestions on this!
I want to ask, will there be any structure to the meetup? Will I have to do that whole small talk/introduction business? Who will actually turn on their mics and cameras? Who will actually stay to the end? Guess we'll find out!
Hi again!
Saturday the 12th definitely seems the most popular! And the time will be 3:30pm (because I'm working that day and can't do any earlier and the votes are pretty spread anyway) hopefully we will stick around long enough for people who can only make it later in afternoon. I'm hesitant to confirm finish time, but I'm thinking maybe 2-3h? But no one has to stay the whole duration if you don't feel like it because that is quite a while to be in a zoom.
I'll post link on the 12th ;D ;D
See you (literally if you have camera on) then :D

Who else will be coming to the meetup?
Who else will be coming to the meetup?Ideally you'll all be crying because I can't make it. That should occupy a fair bit of time ;)
Also, what would everyone like to do during the meet?

There's about a 50% chance that I won't be there though - so if I'm busy, please eat Clix and weep in my honour :))

what about savoys?If it wasnt you who posted this I would have downvoted. Your opinion is wrong.

Aren't Savoy and Jatz... the same thing?Jatz sound cooler - so they are cooler
:o
Jatz sound cooler - so they are cooler???

Does this also translate to other things - if they sound cooler they are by definition cooler? :P
The correct choice is none of the above, including Ritz.
tbh it doesn't matter because you're all wrong anyway - the correct choice is Ritz
I am posting to let you know that I am rather enthusiastic about this meetup! Just a quick question, how will we make this introvert-friendly?Check out this thread with regards to the ratio of introverts to extroverts on AN.

Thank you to everyone who came and Owlbird83 for hosting the meetup.
I think there were about 20 people who came, also crazy that it lasted almost 6.5 hours ;D
Definitely should do more online meetups so VIC/NSW/QLD can interact more.
However, it was unfortunate no one else wanted to pay their respects to K888
first excuse I could think oftbf I thought I might have heard you say something in response on zoom?
Maybe we were all crying on the inside ;)
tbf I thought I might have heard you say something in response on zoom?
However, it was unfortunate no one else wanted to pay their respects to K888Frankly quite rude and if it wasn't such a hassle I'd be banning you all!
I remember replying when you brought it up but not what I saidI'll go ahead and assume it was "I'm devastated K888 isn't here, life just isn't the same. I agree to have a moments silence because she had to work" ;)
