So I have decided to fly down for a visit sometime in the next few months or whenever is best. Seeing as no matter how hard I try to get a new job it is impossible, I can quite easily give myself a long weekend and come down. i could use the holiday!
You should tell me when will be the best time, things to do, who will let me sleep at their house, etc. I will be likely to come down on a Saturday-Tuesday long weekend, because then I only have to take one day off so it won't make me poor! I want hangouts guys, tell me the haps!
-
I think June 20-23 is the obvious answer, as then the rest of us will be there.
-
Oh wait sorry you said Sydney. Why would you want to go there?
-
Don't come between June 27 and July 24! I will be BUSY in OTHER PLACES.
Any time before then is fine! I normally get Sunday Monday Tuesday off (or minimal shifts) so I could come down to Sydney to visit or you could come to Newcastle and stay with me and then we could daytrip into Sydney or whatever!
I would really really really really like to meet up with you Jodieeee think how awesome we could be togetherrrrr
-
Oh hey staying in Newcastle is a good option if it is not very far from Sydney! Because you will make me cupcakes! Also it is many cheapers to fly there than from Brisbane to Sydney.
Hannah's holidays start on like the 18th of June so I was hoping to get in with them. What about that week like the 21-24 of June?
-
Sounds super to me! I was HOPING we could organise a sort of Aus QC meet at the same time as Tronno!
Newcastle is a three hour train ride from Sydney. If you don't mind that.
-
Taronga zoo! Altough, i dont know what the weather is like though, but well, here is Fatty's opinion on it!
(http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1132/1080336892_1a534637fa.jpg?v=0)
Also, demand that the peoples take you out for dinner! *good memories*
(Sorry fatty!)
-
ERIK
COME BACK
I MISS YOU
-
Lunchables, I love trains! Three hours is not a long time! Plus it would be worth it for the amount of moneys I would be saving on flights. Hannah lives in Newcastle too right? Because that would be doubly convenient.
Especially seeing as I would probably be more likely to get in on Friday night to avoid being frightened in an Airport really early in the morning. Because if you are working then I will be frightened in Newcastle instead!
Guys I have never been on a real airoplane before!
-
Hannah studies in Canberra but her Mum lives in Newcastle(ish) but her Est lives in Sydney so I don't know where she would be. Best ask her! We could invite Jamie along, if she feels she is sufficiently QC-ish enough these days. She is fun to have along anyway because she talks lots and is entertaining. Also when we get into Sydney there is lovely Jimmy and awesome Fatty, who are worth the trip by themselves!
Oh um I normally work Friday and Saturday afternoon/nights so we'd have to work something out there.
-
Dear people who live very far away from me,
FIGHT YOU
-
I will be back at home for my birthday (19th), so I will most likely be able to pick you up from the airport on the friday night.
If we can organise what we will be doing during this time, so est and I can work out who is travelling where over the weekend, then that would be good.
We need more Aussies in this thread so we can work something out!
-
Ok, so here are my plans. You guys can then shuffle me everywhich way to whatever you want to do, as long as I get to go shopping!
Friday night: get to Newcastle about 9pm ish, Hannah will pick me up because she is great.
Tuesday: Leave Newcastle about 5pm
To be honest, I am happy to work around everyone else, do whatever, not make anyone's lives difficult. I havn't booked the flights yet but I will soon, because I like to do things quickly! Zoom!
-
Dear people who live very far away from me,
FIGHT YOU
I've been noticing a lot of Wisconsin forumites these days. There are quite a few upper-midwesterners as well.
Sure, Canada is sorta close to the midwest, but some of us (okay, me) are criminals and not allowed into Canada for at least five years.
Maybe we should have a "Corn-Con."
-

xplane plz
-
You guys sort whatever out and If I don't have something else to do, I might curse you with my presence.
-
Maybe we should have a "Corn-Con."
I'm pushing for next year's official forum con to be in Chicago next year, like the one in Tronno this year.
-
Except in Chicago.
-
Guys, stop letting me get my hopes up thinking people are all eager to meet up. You are not in/near Sydney, so there is no point for you to be in here talking about Tronno or Chicago.
Besides, there will probably be more people at OzCon than at TronnoCon anyway.
-
if anything falls through and you need a couch to crash on in Sydney, mine is pretty comfy. Also hurrah! I like meeting friends. Maybe we can trick Lachlan (http://xkcd.com/278/) into crawling out of his Thesis-Hole and play with us.
Edited for "Oh fucking hell!"
-
Dead Sydney People,
If one of you could get a wallaby, a steer and a turtle in the same vicinity and snap me a picture, I would be forever appreciative.
-
Guys I am going to try real hard to get to Sydney some time this year. June is way too soon though and I have no cash. Maybe summer. I really really need to get there.
-
Dead Sydney People,
If one of you could get a wallaby, a steer and a turtle in the same vicinity and snap me a picture, I would be forever appreciative.
Actually, one of my friends has (http://xkcd.com/87/) turtles and the university campus I went to last year had wallabies. If we can get a steer I think we could do this.
-
Jimmy, I will donate $50 to the charity of your choice for a non-photoshopped picture of a turtle, a steer and a wallaby chilling.
-
Yay Jimmy! So guys, I just had a job interview! But don't worry, I probably wot get the job! And if I do, I am totally still coming down that weekend, just it may be for a shorter time!
But for the moment, lets just assume no one wants to hire me and go woo, four day holiday!
-
Hannah studies in Canberra but her Mum lives in Newcastle(ish) but her Est lives in Sydney so I don't know where she would be. Best ask her! We could invite Jamie along, if she feels she is sufficiently QC-ish enough these days. She is fun to have along anyway because she talks lots and is entertaining. Also when we get into Sydney there is lovely Jimmy and awesome Fatty, who are worth the trip by themselves!
Oh um I normally work Friday and Saturday afternoon/nights so we'd have to work something out there.
I'd probably be up for a meetup, I could drag the boy along if I am staying at his place or he is at mine then. Which is a very likely possibility. I don't talk that much do I?
-
I would come to Sydney hangouts, but I am more of a lurker really.
However I have been in the same building as Jimmy on quite a few occasions. Not that it ever progressed further than a nod of "hey. internet guy"
I should be finished uni by the time this goes down, so I'll be up for it if you guys are cool with me being there.
-
I would have said hi but I was only about 70% sure that it was you the first time. Then by the time I was sure it was you we'd already set a precedent of nodding at each other and I didn't know how to break that. Anyway, you should totally come along.
-

-

Don't you fucking hate that? Back in college, my roommate actually confronted a guy he was exchanging nods with: "Listen, we don't actually know each other, so how about we just stop nodding when we pass each other?"
-
Ok everyone who matters. I just booked/paid for my flights. So you all better still be up for this!
I shall be arriving in Newcastle on Friday the 20th of June at 9:05pm! Hannah is getting me then we will probably go drink coffee in Lunchy's cafe until she finsihes work or something.
I leave Newcastle at 5:05pm on Tuesday the 24th of June.
The times in between I belong to you! I demand lots of Sydney shopping though, so BE PREPARED. Also, we have to have a hannah birthday celebration.
This is 3 weekends away! I am excited!
-

Man, what you're supposed to do is turn it up a notch to the high five. There is nothing cooler than the high fiving of a stranger.
-
Holy hooray! I am starting to get super excited now! Also the weekend after that I will be leaving for Canada, so do not be surprised if I am more silly and flustered than usual.
-
Ally dear. How come you don't talk about how much you miss me?
HI EVERYBODY I'M IN SYDNEY. WE WILL DOO FUN THINGS, I'LL BE FINISHED UNI SEMESTER WOOOT.
QUICK. POST HERE WHAT YOU WANT TO DO ON THE WEEKEND 21-22ND: gO gO Go
I think: Newtown can be heaps of fun! There are shops and bookstores and funny looking people [like Est]. The city gets boring, and Newtown has pretty parks!
JODIE I WANT TO MEEEET YOU HEAPS BAD. WE WILL HAVE AWESOME FUN. SO MUCH AWESOME WE'LL DISCOVER OUR SECRET SUPER POWERS. OF AWESOME.
It's late and the night before my design presentation arrargaadkhjnt;krsfh;khb;kdfhv
-
Well, Fatty has gone mad.
At any rate, I was thinking that if there is a day on that weekend when people are just hanging out in Newcastle (though I have no idea why they would) that I might take a train over for the day. It's been forever since I've been out of the city and it might be nice (though again, I do not know why I think this).
-
Maybe you guys could hold a scavenger hunt. Maybe give out a prize for the first person to gather a wallaby, a turtle and a steer for a picture, perhaps?
Seriously. I will pay for this picture.
-
I could get you the turtle and the steer in a picture, but Minnesota is kinda fresh out of wallabies.
-
It'd be easier if the majority of us weren't in coastal areas.
Wallabies are kind of hard to catch without the aid of a gun or a car.
-
Jimminy, we might be hanging out in Newcastle on Staurday maybe? I don't know, I just remember that Lunchables has to work Saturday nights, and it makes sense to putter into Sydney when she is free too! Ali, WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.
Guys, I am so excited.
-
We can hang in Newcastle on Saturday! Then go into Sydney on Sunday maybe and stay at someone's place overnight? Then do more shopping on Monday! (Because more things will be open then, I assume.)
Is anyone willing to put Jodie and I (and Hannah?) up for Sunday night?
-
Lunchables, that is pretty much what I was thinking! It is like our minds are linked.
-
Uh yeah actually. My brother is going to the US on the 16th and so I will have a couch and a free bed (I'll take my brothers, someone else can use mine) if you guys want to crash here for a night (also it is good incentive for me to clean up my place).
-
Woohoo!
-
WHooooo!
Wait, im half a globe away...
*has totally left bits of hair in oz*
-
Thanks Jimminy, that sounds perfect. I am thrilled, this is all planning together nicely!
I am giving myself a $500 shopping budget, please dont let me spend it all in one day/store. You guys will assumably know what kind of shops I like! You can direct me!
-
I know those stores. I shall take you to them. It will be the raddest time.
-
If it weren't for the fact that this is in the middle of my exams, I would be seriously considering the possibility of a couple of days in sydney to meet The Internet.
-
Fuck Sydney is so fun. I wish I could come hang with you guys again. Have a good as time dudes!
-
Shit yeah, who needs Tronnocon?
-
If there is shenanigans happening in Sydney tomorrow, I'll be up for that, if someone wants to send me a pm or an email with something like a general time and/or location.
I own a pith helmet, you know you want to hang out with me.
-
Uh no. It's in like two weeks.
-
Indeed, thanks for that.
I kind of just skimmed over the topic and remembered having read something about the long weekend.
-
Oh, Jodie is taking a long weekend off work is all.
-
In 11 days I will be on an airplane! ZOOM
It has been a while since I had a holiday! Well, since easter I guess. Which isn't that long ago. It feels like a long time! Anyway the point is, I have never been to Sydney and I am looking forward to hanging out with the internet.
-
G'day all! I have been coaxed back onto the forums (not that i was ever a prolific poster) by Jimmy (who works in the same building as me) asking "Why don't we see you on the forums anymore?" with his puppy dog eyes.
So now I have Jimmy's number and am planning to tag along for at least part of this Sydney weekend.
-
Screw you guys and your community. The NZ qc forum scene is dead. Kat's moving to the States, Blackmage/Richard is stuck in bloody Hamilton and no one even knows what happened to Beerman...
You guys are so hanging out with me if (more likely "when") I move to Sydney.
-
Hey guys, I'm up for some kind of Sydney thing (thanks to Jimmy for reminding me). Is Newtown still on the cards? We could probably have some kind of awesome food in the park with all the dog fanciers and such, or if it's raining, go up to one of many cafes/pubs/Thai pun restaurants on the main drag.
(P.S. The Courthouse Hotel has a lovely beer garden, if it isn't raining)
(P.P.S. Do not go to the Olde Fishe Shoppe Cafe, as I used to work there, and it is the devil)
-
Dear everyone,
This is 7 days away! That is a week! I hope you have your party shoes ready!
Love Jodie
-
I'm so excited! New people yay!
Yes It's so going to be newtown. Nearly everyone is there. Because I love you so much, I'll travel all the way out there for parties with you guys. Aztex will probably come, and he might be driving.
Yay!
-
Gryff is dead
-
Please tell me you're joking?
-
Is she?
-
He's as good as dead. He has a life.
-
Hey guys, I have to work earlier than I thought on Saturday (at 2pm now). Who will be in Newcastle that day to entertain Miss Jodie?
-
He's as good as dead. He has a life.
Fuck, you actually had me really worried there for a minute! I had a similar sort of acquantance* die a few weeks ago and it would have been horrible to lose another so soon.
*Someone I'd talked to a bunch of times online and knew a bit about. Although I've never met Gryff IRL so it'd be a little different.
-
Lunchables asks a valid question! If there is no one I will probably just hang out at her house and use her internet though, so I guess I could go either way.
-
Well Jimmy and est and I will be in there at some point during the day, depending on when the boys arrive from Sydney, so we will be able to entertain Jodie if I can come up with some things to show them other than the giant penis.
I doubt I can come up with enough to sustain them until 10pm, though.
-
I would enjoy that Hannah. Do that.
-
I finish work on Saturdays at 3pm. I could very easily meet you guys after that for hangouts. It may be possible for me to leave early from work on Saturdays, but I kind of need the money.
Basically, I am free after 3pm on Saturdays.
-
Handy. Est, Hannah, Jodie and I will be in Newcastle, we can hang out with you if we must :-D
-
Well shit guys, if it's that much of a burden :P
I will remember to check this thread. Let me know what/when/where/why you will be around and I will make my way there after work. It will be fairly simple for me to catch a bus into town if that is where you will all be.
-
I thought newcastle only had one place to hangout? Isn't everything within a stones throw of each other. That and your one beach.
-
Uh no. Newcastle and its surrounding towns/suburbs/parts of Newcastle are much the same size as Sydney, but with less people and more cows. Also we have probably about twenty 'official' beaches and lots and lots of smaller ones.
Would you like me to carry on extolling the virtues of my hometown or would you like me to shut up now?
-
Shut yer noise, you onion. Get back to the photothread, an' go about yer business.
-
Tomorrow! Tomorrow! Tomorrow!
Basically what I am saying guys, is that tomorrow night I am coming to you on a plane. zooooooooom
One more sleep!
-
Guys we need to have an epic photo-off this weekend to determine which country is hosting the better Internet meet-up.
-
CHECK YOUR PMs PEOPLE
-
WHAT THE SHIT ALI I DON'T HAVE ANY NEW PMs
-
no you silly, i have your phone number! I am PMing people who's number i don't have!
-
Oh right.
So anyway.

The next photo after this one is great 'cause some guy rode past on a bike and said "Very cute" and Jodie and I burst out into very undignified laughs.
-
Guys are you still catching the 8:30 train to Sydney?
-
Wish i could :D
Have fun y'all!
-
Jodie bought a scarf,

It's big!
-
I was going to upload some of my pictures but I can't for the life of me figure where Jimmy's USB is. Somewhere down there in the glowing blue LED gorgeousness, I presume. I'm kinda scared of it.
Oh well. Anyway, today we are taking jodie touristing in the city! To see the bridge and opera house and all that jazz. Also pancakes. Hooray!
- Lunchy
-
Hey guys, nice to meet you all the other day!
Also, sorry I couldn't make it for pancakes, I had to work.
-Nick
-
Man guys I am having the best time! I go home tomporrow night, so Lunchy and I are going to spend my last day doing...something...Newcastley.
We don't know yet, but I am going to try on my new corset properly.
NOMNOMNOM GALLERY SERPENTINE NOM CORSETS NOM
(That is the most hilarious scarf photo. I love my scarf)
Love Jodie
-
Dear internet.
Thanks for letting me hangout with you, you were pretty awesome.
-
Jodie bought a scarf,
It's big!
Awwwwwww.
So, where/when are we going to be having the proper OzCon? Who's coming?
(Me, I am)
-
I half-jokingly suggested such a thing in this (http://forums.questionablecontent.net/index.php/topic,20376.0.html) thread, but sadly the thread seems to have been co-opted by those cheap and dastardly Northern Hemispherians to plan some kind of "ChicagoCon" or somesuch.
If there ever was to be an AustralasiaCon, obviously it would have to be in Melbourne, because it has the largest amount of cool stuff to do the Sydney/Newcastle area, because it has the highest density of Australian forumites.
-
We evil North Americans love you Ausies, although we don't understand the heavy coats and such in the middle of summer. But we all cannot simply afford the flight costs, and room and board to get to Aussieland. (although, I totally want to do so in the next year or two)
-
We will have a proper Oz-con.
It will have a beach nearby and be in summer. If people are up for this, I will get the ball moving. Seriously! But it's a bit early for organisation - that's MONTHS away!
-
Oh, but we're supposed to be able to afford the flight costs, and room and board to get to america?
I would love to go to Melbourne and hang out there and do stuff, but I am lazy and poor, so it will probably be in Sydney for me to go to it at the moment. In a year,who knows what the situation will be, though.
-
You could do what I do and stay with creepies from the internet.
-
Yes but there is, what, two Melbournians here? I am not sure they would be happy with the entire Australasian QC contingent asking to crash in their loungeroom. (Me, I'm happy to offer but Newcastle is a bit boring if you are not into beaches or coffee or nice weather.)
-
I have beloved childhood memories of Fort Scratchley that are calling you a big fat liar, Lunchy.
-
If there ever was to be an AustralasiaCon, obviously it would have to be in Melbourne, because it has the largest amount of cool stuff to do
FYP
Guys, I understand the logic of having it in Sydney and I'm not really complaining per sé but (and don't get offended here people) I just really don't like Sydney at all, whereas I love Melbourne.
Me, I'm happy to offer but Newcastle is a bit boring if you are not into beaches or coffee or nice weather.
1 out of 3 isn't bad.
P.S; I don't care who with, but I would most definitely be couch-surfing.
-
I have had internet people crash at mine on no less than two occasions. I'm totally cool with it happening again.
Edit: Hopefully this won't take place in January because it's looking more and more likely that I will be in America hanging out with Shane and Jon then.
-
Okay anyway.
I will post some pictures!

Jimmy helped me lace up my new shoes. I only had to tighten that one a little when adjusting it to fit my leg properly!
(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v663/Lapuz/sydney2.jpg)
Doesn't he look dashing?
I also have a number of blurry photos of me on this camera avoiding having a photo taken. They aren't going to be posted, but everyone else seemed to think that it was the challenge of the weekend to get a photo of me to see if I can avoid all the cameras at once. They probably have some they can put up here.
-
Looks like fun!
Also, I would be down with a Melbourne gathering, as I am within bus/train distance of Melbourne.
-
Guys, photodump. Get with it.
I am like a photo ninja, even Eris can't avoid my awesome skills

Man I have so many photos, I am trying to decide which ones deserve a place in this thread.
Guys, I had an absolutely smashing time. I liked you all large amounts! the internet wins! Also I spent $40 on pop tarts so I am happy.
Anyway, I am planning to go back to Sydney in probably late November/early December, because then it will be near my birthday! And I will be able to buy myself abother corset! Man, I really liked that burgendy one. I mean, I like the one I got alot too, but I can't put it on by myself! So I cant just put it on and take photos! lame! Gallery Serpentine's corsets are SUCH GOOD QUALITY.
Enough twaddle about my corset, the point is that Dovey/Brett/other people should plan to come down around then too!
Thanks Lunchy for letting me sleep in your house and eat your food and hug your cat. Also Jimmy, for the same thing, except for the cat.
Now, PHOTO DUMP

Hannah hates having her photo taken!
-
Honestly I'd rather not have it in November/December, but if other people organised a good and proper OzCon, then I'd literally have no choice, because I am that down for a proper QC Aussie party-time.
-
I reckon Feb is the best time because it's after school starts but before uni. Also, people are less likely to be busy with christmas holiday things. Also, it's the best part of summer. Jodie, you should come down then if you can!
-
I am up for an OzCon pretty much anytime, but perhaps early next year is the best option. November/December are always far too busy for me because I will be working over the Christmas Retail period, will have numerous family Christmas events to attend and possibly a wedding to attend. So January/February would be better.
-
Agreed, February sounds pretty good! (Aside from all that icky hot weather, but whatevs, I'll deal)
-
Early or late February would be wicked. I can make late February to the max. OzcoN(z).
-
Feb ozcon? In!

Man guys, i am never busy in November/December. yooooou weirdos.
But whatever, I might come twice! WE WILL SEE. It is a long way away!
-
Early new year (February) is definitely better than late old year (November/December).
-
DEC/JAN, SCHOOL HOLIDAYS, 6-7 WEEKS!!!
Basically, that's when I'm free and if it's in Sydeny/Newcastle I may crawl out of my room to meet the internets.
-
For the record, this'd basically be a weekend/long weekend deal, as opposed to anything longer, wouldn't it? That's what the Tronno-ites did?
Just making sure because obviously that means that it's easier for people to organise around work/school/such.
Actually, now I think about it I really have no idea where my life will take me in the next few months (I finish my audio course in September and after that comes the arduous process of trying to find a job in the ridiculously overcrowded audio industry) and I'm really hesitant to make plans, but I guess we're not even close to making anything concrete yet. So yeah, jus' sayin'.
Also I think my girlfriend wants me to come to Canada with her at some point in the new year, but I'm pretty sure my chances of being able to afford that are somewhere in the league of none to fuck-all.

Aztex, do you take professional casting photos for a living, man? I swear, those first seven shots look like promo shots for an upcoming dramedy starring the Aussie forumites. Seriously, everyone even looks like they fill a specific role.
And no matter how many times I see it, every time I catch Squiddy's X-Men poster in a photo, I think "hey! I've got that poster!"
-
The Aussies have taken much better pictures then the tronno people.
Aztex awesome shots.
-
haha thanks.
The right lens can make that much of a difference. It's the camera that's doing doing most of the work, not me.

That photo of Ben in Gallery Serpentine is pretty much the best thing ever.
-
Ok guys. Before this thread dissapears forever I just wanted to show the internets my two expensive purchases for the weekend. My $250 Gallery Serpentine corset adn my $120 Route 66 skirt. I don't have a shirt that goes with this outfit so you will all have to deal with the one that doesn't match!

The skirt has guns on it! You can kind of see them.

It also gives me so much arse.
The corset is remarkabley easy to get into bymyself, who would have thunk it.
-
Cuuuuuute.
-
So when is Loxley dying mysteriously?
-
Poor Loxley, I am not sure he has enough mysterious death to go around these days.
Thanks danosaur <3
