what would a cfc party be like?

[Snerk]

I guess I'd try and hijack Borachio's flock of women.

 

[Borachio]

Careful! One of them's 87. And probably the liveliest of the lot.

 

[Snerk]

 

[daft]

Most people would be disappointed to see their mental images of each others' appearance shattered. That, and there would be hardly any women to talk to.

Yeah, pretty much total sausage party, no doubt. Friendly banter at first, later on breaking into heated arguments almost leading to fisticuffs, broken up by some of the admins and modders.

 

[Joecoolyo]

I'd probably bum around in the corner with Phrossack (and Hobbs if he showed up).

Also other people around my age.

 

[Hygro]

hygro would dj

I'd bring girls and then go find my friends.

 

[Catharsis]

Remember how we tried to send a bunch of stuff around the world? We just can't do logistics. The party would be announced to start at 8pm, the first person would show up next tuesday at 5pm, and everybody else would forget about it.

Just don't invite the Finns and the Aussies and we should be fine.

Better yet, get the Aussies to send the invites to Finland and the Finns to send to Australia. Guaranteed 0% successful postage. The rest of us can have a great party in our yeti costumes.

 

[Goodfella]

Nobody would show up. Okay, maybe one person would show up.

We're supposed to assume we somehow all made it, not make excuses to no show like the nerds we are.

 

[Truthy]

The lurkers would have to drink heavily to overcome their fear of talking, then there'd be a bunch of strange drunk people no one knows wandering around.

Most of the conversations would be about people's OT memories and stuff, like funny things people have posted or their reactions to the split.

 

[daft]

As far as drinks go I'd have some purple drank!

 

[Smellincoffee]

Dominated by dudes, for one thing.

 

[Birdjaguar]

So, to handle the bad at logistics angle...

Posit that one of us wins a lottery and decides to host this thing in some really cool place and springs an all expenses paid weekend there for those who attend the Friday night CFC social.

So, now that we are all there...

That is the way I imagine it too. the rich guy would book a whole hotel somewhere nice and then fly in 200 or so top posters and moderators from OT and the civ forums. Everyone would were a badge with their avatar on it as identification. Two days of food, drink and conversation with side trips to the beach outside.

 

[Cutlass]

I stopped going to parties years ago.

Of course, if we opened a poll thread in an effort to get some agreement on where "somewhere nice" might be the entire idea would go down in a blazing dispute.

Are you saying there would be "segregation"?

Are you saying there would be "segregation"?

more like "vip"

 

[Narz]

I would love to attend a CFC party or host one. I've been trying to have a NYC meetup for half a decade now with only one success (plus I got to hang with Peter Grimes a few times ).

I'd bring girls

Say we had a big party and all the OT regulars, including the lurkers, were there. What would this party be like? Who would host it? If c_h hosted, do you think he'd stick around or leave immediately?

Chukchi Husky? Classical Hero?

Would we be allowed to curse?

#@&^ yeah!

How long would it last before degenerating into a series of rabid arguments?

IRL I bet we'd get along pretty well. The ones who were truly anti-social wouldn't come out.

What kind of music would we party to?

If I was in charge, non-mainstream hip-hop & some trippy electronic stuff.

Who's the funny guy?

Hopefully all of us.

Who's getting laid?

Likely no one, it'd be a sausage fest unless Borachio & Hygro comes thru with their promises. If there were enough girls to go round probably Elta would get the most, I'd probably come 2nd or 3rd. The more gay or bi dudes we invite the better (less competition for any females, plus I have a bi friend who'd be down for whatever... within reason).

What kind of beverages would we drink and would there be any illicit substances?

Kombucha!! & various intoxicants & yes, illicit substances for sure.

Drinking games?

I've never been a fan, I like the intoxication to serve the party not the party to revolve around intoxication.

So now we just have to seek out our benefactor... How about FredLC, lawyers are rich & Brazil has lots of beaches.

 

[Whomp]

Party in Whomp's flat! I'm bringin DJ Roomba!

Boom! Done. Why not, right? I've already hosted Warpus, sponsored Hygro, hung with Downtown, Mise, Rik Meleet, Rambuchan, Integral, Godwynn, Comrade Davo, Barbslinger etc. so why not the rest of y'all.

If you ever win the lottery, you invite us all to Vegas to eat lobsters.
