Arcade and Retro forum beers! (AKA the night of the scandalously drunk retro geeks)

CiDeRmAn

Thought I had the night made with a chiptune version of "Last Christmas" by Wham, turns out the set includes a Baby Jesus-Tastic chiptune rendition of "Kidnap the Sandy Claws"!

Pedobread? :eek:

Hope everyone has a scandalously good time in Cider Town tonight!

Atavan-Halen

Just leaving now so should be there in 20/30 mins.

MrVestek

Just arrived home. Thanks for the night lads, was very enjoyable.

Thanks for hosting Ciderman!

Sparks43

Just about to hit the hay great night

Post more in morning

Thanks all for a perfect night

Atavan-Halen

Just in the door about 10 minutes. Thanks a mill to Ciderman for hosting (hopefully you survive the morning!) and to retr0 for the present.

I will get better at DDR for the next one!

Thanks for hosting Ciderdude! Had a fantastic evening. Your cab is stunning. Apologies in advance if there's any residual drool left of the control panel :pac:

And thanks everyone for being the usual awesome group of folks that you are. I have a complete sugar hangover this morning from those cakes, but damn it they were lovely

CiDeRmAn

Thanks to everyone who came over last night.
It was a blast.
[shudder] Sadly I am forever scarred by the sight of Retr0 twerking.... [/shudder]
Glad the cab got a work out, as did Under Defeat and, I can hardly so I will use it's Jap title Bare Knuckle 2

Retr0gamer

Thanks again ciderman for being a great host and for everyone else that came along. I must apologise for my terrible DDR skills and my 'twerking'. I'm no Miley Cyrus.

CiDeRmAn

I don't think there was any chance that he was going to be mistaken for Ms Cyrus, plus he was wearing his boy clothes, which further destroyed the illusion.

Twerking it like a pro...

CosmicSmash

Great night seeing everybody, it was time to go once I saw Retro lose the jumper, knew it going downhill from there. One hell of a twerker all the same:P

DinoRex

Was a good night.

Glad my unicorn poo turned out to be tasty... I'll be making that again.

Touch Fuzzy Get Dizzy

Late posting, just back to Limo last night.
Thanks so much for a great night and for us again.

Also thanks to my Secret Santa(s) for the fantastic pressies and to Mrs Ciderman for the cute light up elf.

MrVestek

Hey guys,

Whilst not an official Arcade and Retro forum only beers I am having a celebration for my 27th birthday party on Feb 1st for anyone that's interested.

The day will start off with some airsofting and will be following by a beer and gaming session back in my place.

If anybody is interested let me know and I'll send you an invite via Facebook or G+.

Would love to see some of you there!

Thanks.

DinoRex

Perfect Blue is showing in the Lighthouse as well that evening... wonder if I can fit both in.

MrVestek

OMG it's tomorrow! can't wait

CiDeRmAn

Well folks, it's now over 2 months since the last Beers, you're all probably growed up now and I probably wouldn't recognise you all it's been so long!
Anyways, I'm thinking it's nearly Beers time once again and wondering what people are thinking for the next one.
I can discuss one with the Chez Ciderman management (hint: Not me) but if, as discussed before, someone cares to host one a little closer to the poor suffering serfs on the Southside of the Liffey, I'd be happy to link up there.
So, dates for meeting mates please!
And locales as well.
Who knows, the curse of Enternow/Myrddin may be finally confounded in 2014!!

I'm more than willing to host. I'm in the Monkstown area.

Not sure how out of the way that is for people.

Touch Fuzzy Get Dizzy

I can't go if it's a Friday.
Other than that it depends on Retro.
I've a Confirmation coming up but it's a Friday, if it's verging into March than the 28th weekend is out for me, Kaizokukon is on in Cork.

Retr0gamer

Wekkends for me as well. I've 4 hours on the train on fridays home from bandit country.

CiDeRmAn

Well, it looks like it'll be pushed into March then, and wanting to avoid Paddys weekend we are looking at either Saturday the 8th, 22nd or 29th.
If I'm hosting any of those Saturdays are ok with me, gives me plenty of time to clean up after the last one!

I'm sure Atavans DDR skillz are razor sharp, while the rest of us flail about like a walrus on acieeeed!

I'll leave it there.

Can't do the 29th, said in the last post and afaik Retr0 has a stag on the 23rd?
8th seems good for us.

CiDeRmAn

I'll speak to management and then we'll talk...

Things seem a bit quiet though, are peeps still interested in this sort of thing, or is it simply because it's the weekend?

Doge

Well its my 30th on the 6th April, so I'm going to make the effort to make the next one.

Also the fact KaizodWTFhdhwjdhjcfjdjkon is on in my homeland, I have no excuse but to meet up with the crew!

ACEEEEEEEEEEEEEED!!!

o1s1n

That last one was two months ago? you serious??? :eek:

I've a busy few weeks ahead but will do my best to make it out.

Doge

Dayummmmn,
So is it time to buy to tickets or will it be grand.? Have no idea how popular this event will be tbh!

I dunno how popular either since its the first year.
Depends really, I would if you're only free to get tickets in person Saturday, Friday's quiet enough you should get away with it, if you're only doing Sunday it's the same.

Should be looking into accommodation soon myself.
I usually prereg when I can,

Jack burton

As usual I'll say I'll try my best but probably wont make it up

Unless anyone would be up for having on a sunday bank holiday evening? Just a thought, but with families and such probably wont suit many people

What date is that and how do other people feel about it?

Jack burton

17th of March I think

would I be able to get home Patrick's Day, I never traveled anywhere around that time. Might be a lot of hassle for me.

CiDeRmAn

That weekend wouldn't work for me, as it happens, sorry

Atavan-Halen

I'm going to a gig on the 17th so it's a no from me for that date. Pretty much any other time though.

CosmicSmash

I will probably be around, don't mind rounding up the Northsiders if needs be. I still have them VHS Godzillas for Atavan, let's know if you set a date.

CiDeRmAn

Having consulted with Mrs Ciderman the night of the 7th of March, a Friday, would seem to be the best choice, for me anyway if it's to be held here in mine.
How does that suit people?
It'll have been 3 months since the last one!
Shocking!

DinoRex

Yeah. That might be the best date. Any weekend after that and a large amount of us will be away in Drangleic.

Touch Fuzzy Get Dizzy

can't do Fridays, I'm asking for some days off soon, they'll be cranky enough as it is I'm out
