Once we get to NYC, what are we going to do. Symposiums on correct thread writing? Films by members? Plenty of drinking I'd assume so will there be a fund to bail members out of jail or pay for the emergency room?

I know a place in the Village where....nvm

Actually the thought of a bunch of ATS'ers at a meetup has given me quite a few chuckles just imagining it. Half the group is so paranoid that they are likely to show up in disguise or totally freak out if someone pulls out a camera. And God forbid if anyone should show up with a FEMA or CIA badge....roflmao....

The other half would probably be running around pulling such pranks.

I've been to 3 and they are basically like ATS.... only faster, as speech is quicker that text. Fun as hell.

I've been cracking a smile at all of these responses of why someone would want to come! Don't get me wrong, cocktails can be nice in moderation!

Today has been very enlightening and I hope all of you are having a great day!

Why New York?

How about Denver?

NATURALLY; the location would/should be Scottsdale Arizona. If have to wear the stick um tag "HELLO MY NAME IS" would be filled in as "Date Rapist"/some ATS members would get the joke.

I have to admit that the prospect of watching our unique brand of ATS-craziness in person, no less!!!, is sure to be unforgettably entertaining.

I would attend (so much fun possible). Just a simple meet and greet. "Hey, that's you?" (you resemble your avatar/idea of in exact). I think this is a brilliant idea. I would like to meet everyone in all forums.

Cool idea but what about a annual thing, rotate cities. If I were local I would be up 4 this

I live right outside NYC so I would certainly attend schedule permitting.

The drinking I can help with. I know all the good spots and can even expense some of the fun.

I would love to go to one, but living in GA is not easy for me to travel to NY, still I wish the meetings were scheduled in difference big cities, once in a while, like Atlanta and Orlando or Jacksonville FL and I would be all for it.

I will bring the chips. The Mind control chips.

I was thinking about wearing a shirt that reads Agent Provocateur
I will be the one telling people that jet fuel melts steel beams

Las Vegas would be a good spot, if for nothing else it's proximity to Area 51 and its much cheaper than NYC for most of us.

Ditto. And for those that drive, there are many directions out of vegas that offers scenic or exploritory ops. Let alone A51.

But I am regionally biased.

Im in..

You aren't going to find a spot that makes everyone happy..Im in Philadelphia so NYC seems like a good choice for me yet Im sure people on the West Coast would say that something out there seems like a good choice for them...

I'm still wonderfully open to the idea! Presuming some of you still wish to meet me; given my attitude towards some of you occasionally. Much love though.

Was there ever a decision made on this event?

a reply to: AugustusMasonicus

Maybe it's a secret?
I can't wait to put on my tin foil tuxedo amd tophat

I wonder if open carry will be allowed at this spectacular event?

a reply to: olaru12

Not in New York City won't.
Even if you have a concealed carry in all of New York State you can't carry in the five boroughs under penalty of arrest and much worse unless specifically licensed for the five boroughs by the Commissioner of Police

Then let's split the difference and hold the conclave in beautiful OKC....or Lubbock
