CFC St Louis Meetup

[hobbsyoyo]

Alright, so who's in for a St. Louis meetup this summer?

 

[Joecoolyo]

Depending on the time and date, I could very well be down.

Just gotta figure out the trip logistics is all.

 

[_random_]

I could potentially be down as well, depending on when in the summer and how my job hunt goes. St. Louis isn't too far from me, and I have non-internet friends I could visit while I'm there.

 

[hobbsyoyo]

So when during the summer works for you all?

 

[Phrossack]

Hey, good idea, hobbs!

I'm up for it, of course. It might depend on where in St. Louis, since beyond Metro and cycling I can't exactly travel around, lacking a car of my own.

I'm free for the vast majority of the summer. School starts mid-August. Between June 16 and August 9 I have a summer class. No idea when it is, but it's only one, so it shouldn't take up much time. But between July 31 and August 4 I'll be floating down the Mississippi for that class, likely camping on islands without electricity.

 

[Joecoolyo]

I'm pretty sure I'm free all summer besides days when I work. Being a minimum wage job it also means I don't get scheduled until like 2 weeks in advance, so the days I work shift every week.

So it would depend on that. But other than that, I'm good for anytime in the summer.

I suppose I should ask you St. Louis people where you went to high school. That seems to be a thing there...

Trick-or-treaters here also tell jokes on Halloween. It is the custom of our people. And it's frankly surprising how much food was invented or popularized here.

 

[Joecoolyo]

That pizza resembles Chicago style a lot, and if your pizza resembles Chicago pizza, I'll be a very happy man!

 

[Whomp]

Uhh...Joe....fontina cheese...ewwww.

I was mostly commenting on the firm crust and square cuts

 

[Narz]

Believe it or not I have a friend who is starting a chess website related startup & he wants me to fly out with him to St. Louie at some point to network at the famous (in the chess world anyway) St. Louis chess club. It'd be cool if I could time it to meet some of y'all.

Fun fact : Narz used to be a diehard Cardinals fan as a child (his pops was from the midwest), this did not make him very popular in the mid-80's when the Cards & NY Mets were in tight rivalry in the NL East (before the NL Central division was created)

 

[Phrossack]

It seems Joe and I are more or less generally free, so the determining factors are the schedules of hobbs, possibly _random_, and Narz. So when are you guys free?

 

[Joecoolyo]

Yup, I got my sister excited by telling her I'd come visit sometime over the summer, so I'd love to mash it in with this St. Louis meetup.

Excellent! Maybe we can even practice some archery together! I'm not sure if I actually know any other archers.

 

[Narz]

I messed with it @ summer camp but was never particularly good @ it.

Yes!

We're totally going to have to find the time to do that if I'm coming down south.

 

[hobbsyoyo]

I can pick you up Phrossack, that won't be an issue. So any particular week work best?

All of 'em other than July 31st-August 4, as far as I know.

 

[Phrossack]

So what weeks work best for the others? Let's get this thing going!
