The Day Plan (Rough draft)

Hi Everypony,

Sharpy here. A quick introduction before I begin. I am helping organise the meet along with the team so I will occasionally post on here as well to keep you all informed of what we have planned so far. That way you can all give us feedback on what you think and we can change things if people don't like them. So with that said here is the rough plan, more will be added as ideas flow in.

Date: This is still really open for debate. When do you all feel would be a good time. We are thinking a Saturday possibly after Christmas when people have money.

Location: London, this is due to the results on the poll previously posted.

Venue: This is still unconfirmed but we are thinking a Pub with an event room open for hire.

Age restrictions: We are going to work hard on preventing these and with private function room it shouldn't be a problem. Just if you are under 18 please don't try and buy alcohol as this will reflect badly on the group.

Time: We are hoping to kick things off between 11 and 12. This will allow plenty of time for people to meet and get to know each other.

Activity/Entertainment Plan:

This again is still a very early Idea but this is what we think might work so far,

Everyone start to arrive sometime after 11, we will have set up a projector and have various related stuff playing. Mostly PMVs, Funny fan created skits, Music etc while we settle down and get to know each other so don't worry if you are a bit of a Fluttershy :) we are all here to make friends and have fun.

We are then planning on showing an episode or two for everyone to watch and enjoy. I know for many it will be the first time they get to enjoy an Episode with like minded people. We will probably decide the episodes on the day so everyone can say what they want.

Now this should bring us up to the right moment, and this is why we thought a Saturday would be best. We intend to put up one of the live streams of the new episode so we can all watch the new one together.

After the episode we will resume the random videos and background music while we all mingle and chat.

Perhaps some games will be fun, a pub quiz is a possibility. But please give feedback on this one, I want this to be a good meet up and a real community effort so if you have ideas for games, music etc please drop us a comment.


I think that about wraps up this rather long post. Feedback is of course welcome, so don't be shy if you don't like something.

YAY!

exciting stuff going on now, with the poll on the way and discussing a good few ideas, it looks like this is really gonna go down, again any ideas or help you can offer with either the site or the planning side is always much appreciated. I'm really hoping to get a site banner soon I've been sketching some rough ideas myself but anyone who is a better artist then me (anypony) who wants to have a go feel more than welcome.

Lets do this

Hey everypony,
I'm already really pleased with the amount of interest this has got (i am guessing a lot is fro ED), now i have a few things i will most certainly need help with.
First off my thoughts were to have a meet up in somewhere like portsmouth or bournemouth since they are easy to get to for people on trains and they are small enough not to get lost around the town, but i am open to suggestions on places you may think would be good (please keep in mind it may be getting colder say we may want somewhere indoors).
Secondly if anyone out there is any good at graphic deign i could really use someone to create an official banner and would also have handy to make things like posters to get out and about.
And lastly if anyone thinks they can help with this site and has more experience with it than i (which is easy to have) i would much appreciate it and add you to be one of the admins, but let it be known if you abuse your position you will be sent to the moon.
Thank you for you time and if you would like to get in touch about any of these things, or just if you feel like you can email me at tjward3@gmail.com or you can add me on Facebook http://www.facebook.com/TaylorswiftWard
Thanks, Taylor Ward
