    I was also thinking that some may be going to the GSO show anyways, so it may be a good chance to meet up.

    The suggestions sound good. That's another reason for us to plan in advance so everyone can plan around it. As sg said, here are the upcoming Saturdays:

    March 13th
    March 20th
    March 27th

    April 3
    April 10
    April 17
    April 24

    May 1st

    If any of you have a preference for or against a certain date, just post about it. I know I'll be having family come in on one weekend; I just don't know which one (I'll just have to check). Other than that, any day works for me.

    As for location, we do want to get something decently central to everyone, or at least accommodating the most that we can. That's why I threw out Brier Creek and Fuquay Varina, as both of those seemed to work well for that idea in the past.

    As for specific location, just post some suggestions on where you'd like to eat. We always want to keep things as open as we can, so that means the restaurants need to have the open room for a group without a RSVP. Red Robin was very accommodating as well as Zaxby's. That's open as well :)  Also, expensive food is a deterrent, so we like to keep that reasonable as well.

    I have company on the 13th, so that'd leave me out.

    I know Alan said we could meet up without him, but I forbid everyone to move forward without ME. :lol

    April 10th is out for me, as [I believe] my family will be traveling to visit us. If that changes, I'll let you guys know.

    Cinemastique, I think supersquads is trying to bite you (It's "Allen" :wink) :lol  Just for that, I'll be waiting on you . . . :ev:

    I know I can't do April 10th either. I will have to work. May 1 too. I'll be out of town. Any of the other dates work for me as far as I know.

    I think any of those weekends are good for me, baring a random Mum visit I won't be informed of til two days before it happens.

    If we're doing it in the Triangle area (I think the BC Red Robin's was mentioned? :D  ) we might want to do it on flea market day. Last I was there one of the stalls there had a decent amt of old TFs bagged up.

    The Raleigh Fairgrounds Flea Market is open on all Saturdays except during October due to the fair. Larry does have quite a bit of TFs, and he always encourages us to stop by. :)

    I remembered last night I have a commitment on March 27th so I can't do that either.

    Hitting the flea market sounds like it could be a fun way to start the day. Haven't been in forever.

    :rolleyes:  Oh, sure, just because us cool kids have three-letter names with only one coherent spelling, I'd be bitter, too...

    I will be bringing at least 1 new custom (happy nao?), provided the date and location are make-able for me. Raleigh is quite far, but I know it's central for a lot of you. Winston or Gboro would be a little better for me.

    You can, but you won't get my Combat Bludgeon (It's a ROTF Bludgeon realistic repaint).

    I'm gonna go ahead and vote for April 17th or March 20th. I'm 90% sure I'd be able to make either.
