    Thanks for a lovely evening, sorry for talking the lugs off of people and damn you Atavan for stealing my crown in Burnout 2's crash mode!

    Cheers for dropping by lads. Now that I think about it, I kind of liked Burncycle... Less said about those Zelda games the better.

    Sparks43 and Atavan - worst doormen ever :pac:

    They just wanted to play the wii!

    Thanks for having us over. Sorry about the CDi but it's like an MRI shot, you'll be better off after experiencing it in the long term :P

    Must try and find a copy of Aconcagua, was quite impressed by the game.

    That would have turned into a Skins party within 20 min :pac:

    I'm going to continue on with that save, looks to be a hidden classic. Almost felt a bit like Deadly Premonition.

    So, Beers.....
    I'm hoping to have one in July, not sure of a date just yet.
    Any particular one suit everyone?
    Perhaps a BBQ?

    Not the last weekend of July as I have a christening, I would invite you all but there is no retro ( except for me ) :p.


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 34,633 CMod ✭✭✭✭CiDeRmAn


    Any other ideas for dates that suit?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,056 ✭✭✭Sparks43


    Should be free all month so as long as the date is set early i can make sure nothing else clashes.

    BBQ sounds good i will bring the Salad


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 34,633 CMod ✭✭✭✭CiDeRmAn

    Wonder if atavan-halen is as security conscious as his neighbors who leave their keys in the front door when they go out.

    Ah, that woman was just waiting for you to come in, march into her bedroom and ravish her...
    Apparently that's how they roll in Dundrum...
    Who knew?

  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 34,633 CMod ✭✭✭✭CiDeRmAn


    Well, the 12th of July then?
    Is that date lousy for anyone?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,725 ✭✭✭The Last Bandit

    19th of July then?

    Wait, that's no good for Atavan...

    Balls!

    When then?

    Help a guy out!

    26th works for me.

    Show me the AWSD!!!


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 34,633 CMod ✭✭✭✭CiDeRmAn


    Ok, the 26th, seems to have the best cross section of "People you'd want at a Beers" and "Dates to set if you want have a Beers".
    Now, it's time to convince EnterNow to break that covenant, defy Glob and come to a Beers!!!

    Could there be an intermediate Beers before hand, perhaps the fabled lost Dino Beers of May 2013 could make an appearance?
