In other news:
Got accepted in computer science, biotechnology and computer engineering in my local uni :D
Dunno which one I'll take though.

I found Peter Griffin to be particularly insightful on this topic, and I half-quote: "biotechnology and computer engineering are just the lesbian sisters of cs". Computer engineering sounds boring as fuck, and biotechnology is way too tech-oriented. In cs you'll actually learn a good deal of interesting math. Even though its official name has been "applied math" for a long time, I find that it's actually one of the more pure subjects, even on par with physics as far as I'm concerned. Take into consideration that CS is not so much about programming. When I was younger I was turned off by CS because I thought computer science basically meant programming course. It's nothing like it, and here's a great quote I saw about it: "CS is as much about computers as astronomy is about telescopes". ie: not so much. You use telescopes in astronomy just like you use computers in cs, but they're not the important part of it.

Two hours north. Haven't been to the Harbor since I was like 8. Maybe I can convince the GF to head down there for a few days with me and we can do a mini-vacation as well.

Vancouver/Seattle Meet Up

Hey everyone, I was planning on possibly getting a Vancouver or Seattle meet up going some time later this year, but I had some questions.

1. Would you go?
2. What do you generally do at a meet up?

It seems I've miss understood the idea of a meet up :P.
Apparently you need to have some one famous on newgrounds for it to be good.

It all depends on the age group of the users that plan to show up and whether or not any of them are familiar with any of the people going. If no one knows who each other are, there's really not going to be a lot of interest. But if everyone that's going knows at least a couple people, they'll be more inclined to show up, especially when a lot of people say they will come (so that not only 3-4 kids under 15 show up with one 30 yr old).

i might go, depending on how close it is.

Maybe you could plan it around PAX seattle? That way you already have a good number of ng people in the area and the town itself is filled with activity and people.

First meets are always hard because you are starting from scratch, and people who do manage to show up are going to expect you to lead and keep things entertaining. If you arent well versed in the city or you dont have the personality for it then its probably better to not host it. On the otherhand, with PAX going on, you could lighten the burden because that can take some of the spotlight.

Venues like london took awhile to get going, and it relied on the people who live and play there to really figure out fun shit to do. I'd be remiss to say that the london meets would ever be where they are without Super Flash Bros Tom. You just need someone who knows his way around the city and has the personality with dealing with a group. Options open up when youre 18+ so generally its better to have an older userset.

Olympics in February in Vancouver, could that facilitate something (or just make it harder?).

It'll be more crowded than usual, but most of that is going on at Whistler anyway. :)
