64D tour of America!

Posted by firestormx on April 26, 2012, 9:34 a.m.

Well, at least the north eastern part of America. Maybe more depending on demand.

Canadonian and I are planning to come down and visit the US from Friday June 1st to Sunday June 10th (we have to be home by Sunday), so that's 10 days, and 9 nights.

SO. We don't really have any plans, except that I want to go to Virginia again, and that we're doing this to have an adventure, and visit as many 64D members as we can. I do realize that most of you will have moved out of your dorms by then, so you won't all be concentrated in large cities, but we'll try.

I was thinking of doing a circle, where we enter the US through Detroit and visit Michigan people, like Rez, then roll through Ohio and meet Acid and Chiken, and then a mishmash of Virginia, Maryland, The Commonwealth of Pencil, New York, and maybe go all the way up to Maine.

That's what I was thinking, but that's without anyone telling me where they live or to come visit.

Let me know where you live, and we'll try plot our course to visit you. If you can give us shelter for a night, that'd be cool (TWISTERGHOST DID IT LAST TIME. DO YOU REALLY WANT TG TO BE BETTER THAN YOU?!), but if you can't, we'd still like to visit, and at least go for a meal or something.

It doesn't have to just be these states either. If you live anywhere in the US (even out west) post your city and state, and we'll see if it's worth spending half our trip driving across the US.

tl;dr: Canadonian and I are rolling through the US starting on June 1st. Post your city and state so we can visit you, and/or spend a night at your place.

I don't mean to overshadow the RPG comp, but I'm gonna pin this 'cause I really want people to let us stay at their place, 'cause sleeping in cars is uncomfortable. =3

Update: Here's a list of states, and who's there.

Update again: New list

Probable locations:

Michigan: Arc (Western), Alert Games (North of Detroit)

Ohio: Chiken (Cincinnati), Snakeman (Columbus), Acid (Warren)

Commonwealth of Pencil: JID, Other

Virginia: Zac1790 (Gloucester), other (VA Beach)

New York: colseed (South East)

Mass: Poly, EV

Rhode Island: Purianite

Places we won't go by (sad face):

Texas: Pounce and Reidd (El Paso), DF (Richardson), Kenon, Seleney (Houston), kabob/Kamira (Forth Worth)

Missouri: CPS (St Joseph)

Kansas: Obeilsk

Mississippi: Leemcd56

Utah: Kilin

Alabama: Hel

Colorado: Eva-unit-01

Arizona: McFluffeh

California: Cyrus, Ferret, LAR, Mush (San Diego)

Indiana: RC (North central)

Atlanta: Meow44 (Georgia)

Google maps: Map

I think it'd be awesome to fly around to some states as well once we're in the US - that way we can actually visit Cali, but it's not cheap. :(

Mega: I don't WANT to go all the way south, but I kind of want to visit Texas.

McFluffeh: The problem with 64DCon (which Ronnica organized for 2012, but no one went out and got high paying jobs to get here) is that people would have to travel. :(

Taizen: Texas is NOT closer than Massachusetts. Texas adds like an extra day or two to the trip. >:(

It may be closer to YOU, but the world does not revolve around you, it revolves around me.

RC: You make Indiana sound a little bit more appealing. It'd be more appealing if you could get all the whales to hop up and down on the northern border to shift it closer to Canada. =3

Snakeman: You know the dates. >:(

Well… exact dates.

Also, wouldn't heading out to where Seleney's at also mean you'll be near where ShinseiOnnen is?

I would go visit you guys in Ontario when I have the money, but I have relatives that I don't like there.

Where exactly in Ontario are you?

Acid 12 years, 8 months ago

I'm definitely in Warren, Ohio. :P

Uhm… I was talking about active users, and - http://www.64digits.com/users/index.php?userid=sir%20Xemic&cmd=comments&id=268539

wow that needs updating, says i'm 19 and i'm gonna be 21 here soon :o

Snakeman 12 years, 8 months ago

Yeah, it seems a bit behind by two years, heh.

firestormx 12 years, 8 months ago

C'mon xemic, get it together. >_<

Acid: Sorry, I didn't know there was another Warren. XD

Zhiko: Toronto, and just outside Toronto.

RC and CPS: I thought your states were in different places than they actually are. Sorry. We should be able to make it by there.

Alright, so here's a google map of our trip so far. For some people, I kind of just guessed where you are, but if your state is there, then it probably relates to you:

Google Map

10.5 THOUSAND kilometres (for Americans, that's 6.5 thousand miles), and 4 days and 14 hours of straight driving.

I'm pretty sure we'll have to cut this down quite a bit. If you have cars, you should all congregate to a state that's closer than Texas. XD

Edit: Why won't my url tag work? :(

Try shortening it with bit.ly or something :P

Acid 12 years, 8 months ago

That is a long link for a LONG trip. :P
