Mad Woman Cheryl Posted January 5, 2004 Posted January 5, 2004 Paisley, even tho it is January our weekends have filled up. Next weekend hubby has to meet with someone and the next day we will be going to Hagerstown to see a train garden. The weekend after that is the Maryland Polar Bear Plunge of which some other people we know will be attending. I have spoken with Capt. Flint and my hubby and I will be meeting up with him Jan. 22, which I believe is a Friday evening. We will be talking about some guidelines about forming a group. Once we have those then we should be ready to get everyone else together to discuss forming a group. We have all been in enough organized groups to know likes and dislikes. I will keep everyone posted. Mad Woman Cheryl By Odin's mighty spear, I hereby snap and go berzerk!!!"
Capt. Flint Posted January 5, 2004 Posted January 5, 2004 Paisly luv..... we would love to meet up on a given weekend coming up. Why don't you e-mail me what is good for you and we will see if we can make it. We are moving at the end of this month so.... that is out. If you would like to wait for early Feb. we will have an open house at the new place and we could all get together then. Karen and i are allready planning a pirate party at the new house, just as soon as we get moved in. Either way.... let me know..... Flint

El Pirata Posted January 10, 2004 Posted January 10, 2004 I might be willin to make a trip that way with me daughter one weekend but I need about a week advance notice as to which one. Pushing the limits means getting out of my comfort zone and giving more when I don't think I have any left.
Paisley Posted January 15, 2004 Author Posted January 15, 2004 how does anyone feel about a trip to annapolis, md? or would you rather go to baltimore? or dc for that matter.... "This calls for a particularly subtle blend of psychology & extereme violence." -Vivian, The Young Ones
Capt. Flint Posted January 15, 2004 Posted January 15, 2004 Annapolis would be wonderful Paisley.... Of course if we all choose Baltimore, then we would be happy to play host and let everyone use our place as a rest stop and hang out after ward..... We are setteling on the new house in two weeks. So let us know when you want to do this as we are extremely time conscious right now. We are very much looking forward to this little get together, so say when......... Flint
Guest Angus MacVox Posted January 15, 2004 Posted January 15, 2004 And everyone, wherever you are, sign up for the Pirates Meetup, it makes all this really easy - once you meet everyone through meetup you can start meeting outside of it on your own schedule. http://pirates.meetup.com
Paisley Posted January 15, 2004 Author Posted January 15, 2004 tried that meself mr angus... 7 people have signed up, but i fear that their ship has gone down. our "meetups" always get cancelled. "This calls for a particularly subtle blend of psychology & extereme violence." -Vivian, The Young Ones
Cpt Sparkle Posted January 15, 2004 Posted January 15, 2004 Arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrgh!! Swabs, I've got nothing else to do, ever. I'll be wherever the DC area piratical souls choose to meet. I truly hope it'll be a place offering frosty barley pops. Whatever port you choose, I'll be there. Arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrgh!! So, ye be surrounded by 200 of 'er majesty's finest Dragoons an all ye 'ave is a musket, a pistol and yer cutlass. What do ye do?.............Kill 'em all!!!
Cpt Sparkle Posted January 16, 2004 Posted January 16, 2004 and a great big Arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrgh!!! Paisley me fine blond headed lass. I tried the meetup thingy and couldn't locate the Wash DC area meetup. Oh well. Wherever and whenever count me in. Whatever happened to going up to tour one of the boats in Baltimore? I think touring an old square rigger or a schooner is better than playing with a room full of drunk monkeys. Let me know. and another big Arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrgh to go away with. So, ye be surrounded by 200 of 'er majesty's finest Dragoons an all ye 'ave is a musket, a pistol and yer cutlass. What do ye do?.............Kill 'em all!!!
Guest Angus MacVox Posted January 19, 2004 Posted January 19, 2004 To use meetup, just provide your zipcode when you sign up... As for the meetups being cancelled, they are always cancelled unless 5 people confirm attendance. Each month everyone signed up gets 2 emails - the first, vote on a location, the second, confirm or decline attendance. Doing both is essential for the meetup to occur. Stay signed up with meetup, whether they're occuring or not, because your being signed up attracts more people to sign up. Eventually, you'll have enough people signed up so that enough of them will confirm and the meetup will occur. Usually it takes 15 or more for 5 to get around to confirming like they're supposed to. More people than those 5 usually show up though in my experience.
Paisley Posted February 24, 2004 Author Posted February 24, 2004 hey!!!! just had a great idea! anyone want to meet at a washington caps hockey game??? they sell special packs of 4 tickets for $82. that special part is for $82 you get 4 tix, 4 burgers, 4 chips, 4 drinks, n 4 baseball hats.... bad thing is they are up in the crow's nest, but i actually don't mind those seats at all anyone game???? pardon the pun "This calls for a particularly subtle blend of psychology & extereme violence." -Vivian, The Young Ones
Paisley Posted February 25, 2004 Author Posted February 25, 2004 if you guys like this idea..i found two dates that might work out nice: Washington Capitals vs New York Rangers - Saturday, Apr 3 2004 3:00PM Fan Appreciation Day Shirts-off Our Backs 2003-04 Team Poster Giveaway or Washington Capitals vs Atlanta Thrashers - Saturday, Mar 20 2004 7:00PM All Star Poster Giveaway if we get enough people, i'll call for group price "This calls for a particularly subtle blend of psychology & extereme violence." -Vivian, The Young Ones
Selestia Posted February 25, 2004 Posted February 25, 2004 I signed up for Meetups and so far there has been 4 scheduled and cancelled. I have received emails stating a meetup is scheduled and to vote on the venue. I go to the site and try to vote but get an error page that states technical problem and to try later. I try later and for days afterward but still can't vote because of a problem with the site. I have contacted the site 3 times and told them of the problem. As of today, the problem still exists. I'm very interested in meeting others from my area (Richmond, VA) for get togethers and participating in piratical events. ~Selestia~ First Wench Pyrates Of the Eastern Sea Email - pyratesoftheeasternsea@usa.com Website - Pyrates Of The Eastern Sea Pirate Reenactor - Tales Of The Seven Seas website - Tales Of The Seven Seas ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Wildest dream come true ~or~ worst nightmare realized.... the choice is NOT yours.... it all depends on which mood I'm in .... and.... how much rum there is to drink! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
