Where in PA??

 

[blah]

neighbouring

As I know, er, very little-nothing about America

We've got a lot to work on

 

[Meep]

i don't think i can go ):

No Forte no Meep ):

 

[IamWEB]

No Meep no Candia!

@Charlie: Dallas. You should go because you can't travel to the U.S. and not go. In fact, let's change Nats to be in Dallas.
I think that sounds plausible permitting you can travel here yourself. :3

 

[riffz]

I don't think that can be done on top thrill dragster.

I did it on another one at Cedar Point, The Iron Dragon.

Iron Dragon is one of the crappiest rides in that park lol.

I'd actually be interested to see if someone could solve a cube before Top Thrill Dragster was over. I highly doubt they'd let you take one on, though, even if you drilled a keychain into one corner.

I hereby challenge waffle to an Orangina chug-off!

It was crappy. And there's literally no way anyone could solve it on Top Thrill Dragster, unless you cheated and solved while strapped in before you started moving. The ride is about 15 seconds and you travel at an absurd speed that would make turning basically impossible. There's just no way.

Well, if you think I am going to be walking on sidewalks and putting trash in trash cans, you have another thing coming

nicely done Charlie

I'm gonna do everyone a favor here and decree that all orangina drinking contests must take place outside, and the competitors must remain outside until they are confident that they will not vomit everywhere.

I think I want to get in on this Orangina chugging. I might start practising (while standing in the bath during and for 30 minutes after).

 

[Carson]

I have never tried Orangina, but I have stackmated a few other beverages. I can't remember my exact PB... if Shaden, Chester, or Mitchell see this... maybe they can remember.

The lighting in the main room looks so yellow...

The lighting in the main room looks so yellow...

This bump reminds me I have to register before April. I almost forgot about that.

Agreed, it looks dangerously yellow.

 

[Kian]

It's not that bad in person.

 

[JBCM627]

Yeah, the yellow is more an artifact of the camera-phone-quality picture, and the light settings in the room. I'll try to find another picture, although for some reason good ones aren't readily available.

This gives a better impression of what the ballroom looks like:

[AvGalen]

Woohoo, I can almost 100% go

Isn't that what you said last year? and the year before that? Looks like you have a better plan this year though

Also, travelling around is best done by Greyhound bus (or hitchhike). If Greyhounding, bring mini-ES-2x2x2 and give them to crying babies to instantly shut them up (gonna try that with my kids later, it worked great when going from Niagara Falls back to Chicago a few years ago)
