sorry to say that San Diego is part of California and according to the region map that makes it a Western state. However I can still put it up as an option for western states.

Does anyone know how many cities we should have as options for each region before we make a poll to figure out the city that would represent the region?

Hey the Aussiescapists turned out all right, I'm sure we can pull this off. Although I have to ask, have you been to an IRL meeting or are you just afraid of randome people on the internet? I'm not saying that either is bad, hell I wouldn't show up at an IRL meeting of anywhere but this site.
Same, plus, I could always write a note proclaiming I am not a pedophile like Nuke did.

If anyone needs a letter nuke made one for everyone [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/forums/read/18.76255?page=6#899184] just replace the name with your own and BAM! you got yourself a letter saying nobody on the escapist is a pedophile.

at this point we're trying to come up with places for the vast space that is the US. look at the OP to see the submitted towns and a map of the regions I'm going off of to determine what town goes where.

Right now we're figuring out areas so submit a large city that you think others may be able to attend, we're short on Northeast cities.

One more thing, guys and gals: when I did a user search by country, almost 4000 popped up for the US. If you know somebody or are friends with somebody who you know or even think might be interested, let them know, and direct them here. This isn't a definite yet, so the biggest thing is gauging the interest.

I resubmit Baltimore for East Coast.

ill second that san diego, admittedly, im being sorta selfish, but i live in southern arizona, so no way am i making san francisco or denver. also i want to volunteer the idea of making these events over spring break, or if we are thinking long term, perhaps summer break so that we get the most participants.


Edit: are htere even any southwesterners on here? i am, but i havent seen any others

it has been updated.

once again a question to everybody, how many cities before we make a poll and decide which city will represent which region? I was thinking three but if anyone thinks we should have more options tell me and I'll wait.

this is going to be over summer, your not the only one with school. I thought I put that in the OP, I'll go back and check and put it in if it wasn't before.

If you live in Arizona how about Phoenix? We still have no suggestions for the Southwest.

Ok... and I agree with this guy
Baltimore would probably be good

How about Miami for South East? That's about a South East as it gets.

Although if this is over summer I'll have to have my own Escapism at home. I'll be back in Jamaica all summer.

Well, jim, unless you would like to go to the eastern meeting (which, being closer to actual Escapist headquarters, as well as closer to you, I can understand) I officially invite you to the Midwest Escapism (yes the one that has no place, time, date, events, or even a confirmation of existence yet). Someone as prestigious as yourself deserves nothing less than the full Midwestern experience. Minus the cows.

We should do Tulsa for the midwest, because I live near there.

And because... um... I live there! And it probably wouldn't be that hard to get to!

But mostly because I live near there, and there's no way I could convince any relatives of mine to drive me anywhere except Tulsa or Oklahoma City. (I'm only just fifteen. Which means you guys should cater to me, because I'm an innocent little kid or something like that...)

Flexability is good, i like flexibility, it lets me plan shit. Keep in touch...
