As the 2011 Guild Meet was such a huge success we thought we'd do it again this year. As per the last event, we'll run it at the same venue and at the same time as dMw LAN XXII, the dates for which are 19-21 October 2012.
For the early arrivers Thursday night will host a fun Texas Hold'em Poker Evening. It was trialled last week at LAN XXI and worked really well. Friday night is Steak night again! I still want to see Hubbah try to eat a whole cow in one sitting. We did Ten Pin Bowling last year on the Saturday which everyone really enjoyed, so we'll try to organise something similar this year.

I'm fine with sharing a room if anyone needs a roommate to share the cost.

Down in the dMw Events (http://wowreforge.com/EU/Aszune/Swedeguy) section you'll find a topic for dMw LAN XXII (http://www.deadmen.co.uk/forum/forumdisplay.php?424-dMw-LAN-XXII) which also hosts our Guild Meet. Some people come along purely for the social activities, others participate in the LAN party. We tried this 'dual' approach of a Guild Meet + LAN at LAN XX last year and it was a great success. Many DMR players have been to our LAN parties before and the Guild Meet brought even more together.
Sample piccies from last year's LAN XX are here (https://plus.google.com/photos/103505837107402036346/albums/5659317859176067345?banner=pwa&authkey=CNHEy4TFq6mgywE). You might be able to tell that LAN XX had a 'hawaiian shirt & fez' theme!
It's a great long weekend and well worth the trip. We take over the hotel for the 3 days and have a great time putting faces to the names we know and spend so much time with on Teamspeak throughout the year! :thumbsup:

That just hurts Switch..
sorry babe
I have been training Switch!:P
Ehhmm,
dont think you're going to like this but my dad just got a heart attack, again..... Number 6 I think..
So he'll probably survive this one as well but cant really be sure since he is 86 after all...
So the result is that I cant make it to this guild meet. :crying:
The good thing from what I hear is that you do this twice a year so I'm aiming for spring meet instead.
I will probably be online for raids and such since not much I can do for him but if it gets worse I can get there in a hurry....
Anyway, will post in all the appropriate threads about my abscence.
Sorry, was really looking forward to it.
/Mats
Hope he gets better soon Swede, we'll raise a glass or three for you and your father :thumbsup:
Safe journey's everyone and can't wait to meet you all tomorrow!!!! xxx
Just did my online check in, time to pack my bag before the raid tonight and im ready! :) :)
I just wanted to say how wonderful it was to have the opportunity to meet some of the DMR guildies this weekend. Since it was my first guild meet with you guys I was a bit nervous and didn't really know what to expect but it was like arriving home to your family!!! It was great to put faces to names and voices and spend time with a wonderful group of people and I am looking forward to the next one already and meeting even more of you!!!
Thanks again for a lovely weekend
Riggy
xxxxx
Had an awsome weekend :) next time ill make sure to beat Switch at bowling though :P
Ill be back for next years LAN to have some more drinks at the bar :D ( and dont forget that lovely steak! )
It was a fantastic LAN & Guild Meet, had some great fun and it was brilliant to put some faces to names for those whom I had not yet met.
The next LAN is in April 2013 and the next combined Guild Meet/LAN will be in October 2013. Make sure you are there!
