If I manage to get there, I personally was going to roam around, and talk to fiance about Lusternia, in the hopes other people would hear, because I...I get really nervous about talking to people in rl. Also. I'll be wearing my Lusternia tshirt if I can find it.

So...logistical question. I don't actually know what any of you look like and I'll be showing up alone, so how exactly will I be able to find you at the restaurant? I suppose I could eavesdrop on all of the tables and find you based on the nerdiest conversations, but I would prefer a less creepy way!


You're 6'7. They'll find you.
Krackenor2011-03-03 23:53:46
I dunno...they grow 'em big down south. Also, 6'6, not 6'7. Huge difference.

I was wondering the same thing! suspicious.gif

Well, if you've seen Sior's ustream, you know what he looks like. He's also rather short.

And if anyone is taking the train down from Baltimore's Penn Station with me to D.C. (Phoebus?), I'll just say... I'll probably be reading a copy of American Gods.

Don't worry, Phoebus. I know what you look like.

That didn't come out creepy at all. tongue.gif

laugh.gif That sounds a little creepy!

And yes, if I am going (which I'm pretty sure I am, unless something unexpected comes up) I will be doing that. I'll probably be wandering around somewhat hunched over and terrified, so that aids in the identification bit. blackeye.gif

EDIT: Now that I think about it, maybe it'd be a good idea to make a sign ("LUSTERNIA D.C. MEET") and bring it to the restaurant.

Run, Phoebus, run!
Unknown2011-03-04 05:09:11
Huh. Sior looks good on streaming video.

For Xiran's player, look for a bespectacled girl with really long black hair. Possibly holding a notebook with "Lusternia DC Meet" taped to the back.

I think a sign would be nice too. I'm also coming alone and am not anywhere near 6 feet tall, and I don't really know what people look like either. Though, come to think of it, I remember the restaurant looked fairly small, so maybe we can just look around for a nerdy-looking group of people who don't seem to know each other very well. wink.gif

I was thinking about going, but then I thought about how this conversation would go with my parents.

"Hey dad, I'm going down to D.C. for the weekend."
'For what? To get shot?'
"To meet some people that I met on the internet, with no confirmation of their identity or intentions. Please give me train and living expenses."


I'd totally come otherwise! o:

Hey guys, I want to see if we can reserve a few tables at the restaurant. Post if you're confirmed coming to the meetup. If you're unsure, post what percent likely you are to show. It's not a big place but there is more than one level. We'll be upstairs for sure, just don't know which room.

To anyone without a smart phone (will be checking sior at lusternia dot com from mine), can provide a cell number for the meetup. Just send a PM. But I'm pretty recognizable.

I'm 90% sure I'll be there. I've got nothing going on that day, but since I don't control my own transportation, I can never be 100% sure that I can get anywhere.
Krackenor2011-03-05 15:11:26
I'll be there
Unknown2011-03-06 01:10:47
I'll give it a 90% chance of Xiran appearing.
I feel like working today, so I think I'll get what I need to do done.
Moriana2011-03-07 18:45:02
I will be there, barring some unforeseen emergency.
Sior2011-03-07 23:19:57
Made a reservation, we're all good to go.
