    Ok, octocon is a sci-fi, comics etc. conventoin in Maynooth. Its on october 16th/17th and costs €25 for under-16s, €40 for over
    Just wondering if:

    1. Theres a large number of CTYIers who want to go, so we can get a group rate(20+ people cuts off 25% of the cost!)

    2. Theres 1 or 2 CTYIers near the centre(Glenroyal Hotel, Straffan Road) who wouldnt mind their homes being invaded

    Any replies in this thread, I have to clean out my inbox before I can get PM's

    yeah but the real question is, did i enjoy the experience


  • Registered Users Posts: 13,034 ✭✭✭✭It wasn't me!


    Probably..... I avoided two out of those three. Like comics but don't have the money to develop an addiction. *sigh* another addiction.... Wherever would I put it?

    Trust me, comic addiction is bad. Very bad. And there's no cure or support groups.

    Since Moderator isn't written under my username, that's not my job. You have a problem with not being allowed to be a gimp, take it up with them. I'm sure they'll be happy to talk with/ban you.


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,709 ✭✭✭StupidLikeAFox


    em thanks, i owe ya one


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 566 ✭✭✭elephamt king


    forbidden planet rocks.
    of course ana liked it,me and all my completely non-nerd friends loved it.they have nightmare before christmas and house of a thousand corpses collectibles and its near rhythm records. :D:D:D:D
    ps
    its pretty expensive though.

    Without acting the tit? :rolleyes:


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,709 ✭✭✭StupidLikeAFox


    yep without acting the tit


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 631 ✭✭✭Joycey


    u say hes being a tit and he made one small comment and like 4 people flamed him... when you think about it... whos the bigger tit?


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,858 ✭✭✭Undergod


    I think I should draw attention to the fact it was me who drew attention to the whole Octocon thing at the reunion on the 14th. Unless I'm wrong, (my sincerest apologies if I am) cause I'm not entirely sure who everyone is yet... This is bill, just so you know. WOOO!


  • Registered Users Posts: 13,034 ✭✭✭✭It wasn't me!


    If he deserves those four people's flames then him, rather obviously. My point was that he's trying. He didn't succeed in that post but at least he's trying. More than can be said for the rest of them.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 59 ✭✭SeanOM


    Are you coming to cork aonghus?

    Ya kno , whoever those people were who flamed me technically should recieve a ban without warning according to that thread by crash. Because i stated an opinion and was rewarded with 4 flames, that shouldnt go overlooked should it?

    Probably will though

    Just because he's a moderator doesn't mean he's fair, or consistent
