Looks like I'm working from the 12th through to the 25th. You guys have fun though!
Not to derail, is anyone else in the Newcastle / Sydney area? If so send me a message in game if you're interested in a meet, if there's enough perhaps we could organize something, or just meet up for a couple of beers.
I'm not but I have an uncle who lives in Canberra who I intend to visit soon, I'll let you know when I plan it and I'll drive up for a few drinks!
POP! Just bringing this up again to remind people of it and no it hasn't been forgotten. It's taking place the 16th-18th of April so mark your calendars!
Also something occurred to me. Any underage players who want to join us? I can 'plan' some under-18 friendly activity some time so you can join us.
Maybe lasertag/bowling and a few hours at the massive arcade? Theme parks? Let me know!
Any specific places people can be/will be staying so far? I'm semi-planning on just driving down, depending on how things go (or catching a train or whatever).

I'll be driving down the entire coast of Australia, starting from Perth over the span of two-three weeks this December - if anyone wants to plan ahead.

There is a game arcade in Surfer's Paradise which is a lot of fun. Also we can hit the beach and just have a nice lunch somewhere. I'd like to have a non-alcoholic thing doing the day if someone underage wants to come along.
BUT we could also spend the day at Taps (if it is open by then) and play giant jenga/checkers/backgammon/cards against humanity.
Movieworld is awesome. Also, depending on if we can afford it by then... if we end up going to a theme park, Trance and I will have our son along (if no one minds) and then will take him to do his own thing after an hour or so
Weekend of the 16th is still a go! Tentative schedule
Friday 15th - I'll drive down and get comfy in my hotel room, maybe meet earlybirds for dinner
Saturday 16th - We'll all meet up. We can meet on the gold coast and people can filter in whatever time they like. We'll make it from lunch onwards, go out for dinner and drinks or just dinner and a round of rambunctious games and mix your own in the hotel room. (I'm thinking Cards against humanity, Twenty Questions|HeadsUp Achaea version, or some abstract game noone really knows we can all drunkenly learn together)
Sunday 17th - Dreamworld. Depending on how many people we have if another person has a car we might all be able to squeeze in and drive there. If not, bus. Nothing like thrill rides and screaming kids when you're hung over. more food and more drinks/chilling out in the hotel room.
Monday 18th - I get kicked out of my hotel room and start driving home. You're all on your own from there on.
I won't be able to attend either. Hope you guys have fun though.

Too bad I won't be able to make it. Everyone have a lot of fun!
Maybe it will be possible to organize something else before I get kicked out when my student visa runs out in mid-2017 (or to put it more optimistically, when I finish the damn Ph.D.)
@sylvaria holler if you want to grab a beer next time you visit the uncle in Canblah, likewise for anyone coming down this way (though why you would want to come to this boring multi-breasted-balloon-whale town... I don't know)
Wow so many Aussies who play. I have just started playing Achaea from Lusternia. Achaea looks to have a lot more Aussies. Probably won't be able to make this meet but share how it goes. I'd be keen for future ones.

Should be able to get some time off, and its my birthday that weekend, so I'll justify the cost by letting it be a birthday present to myself.
I'll read through the thread and see what the current plans are.

Any suggested area to look for a hotel (or hotels to look at)? I haven't been up that way for a while.
