Hey Nukka, can I crash at your place the night before this so that I don't have to wake up at 9:30 to get to this? <:

Also, can you reimburse me $10 if I pick up some tubes for you? I'm going to the bike shop tomorrow to get some new handlebar tape and some spokes to replace some of the more battered ones on my bike tire. I can install the tubes for you too if you'll ride with us. <:

This is looking to be a great trip.

Maybe Wunderland has some new games too.

nekovamp13 · « **Reply #154 on:** July 07, 2009, 10:36:11 pm »

I hope so. They already took away my fav games T.T (the X-men game, and the hand version of DDR)

DancingTofu · « **Reply #155 on:** July 07, 2009, 10:49:57 pm »

I'm not seeing anything interesting listed on their site. Hopefully they at least have air hockey there or something.

makichan · « **Reply #156 on:** July 08, 2009, 11:25:59 am »

It's official... I won't be going. My family from Texas is staying here for a while, so I'll be busy chilling with them. Have fun, everyone!

nikkiolie · « **Reply #157 on:** July 08, 2009, 11:33:19 am »

I don't think I will be able to go either. I have no money. I have about a dollar....so I wont be able to get food or play any games. Sorry.

EveofAbyss · « **Reply #158 on:** July 08, 2009, 11:36:19 am »

I'm bailing too (not that I ever fully committed, heh). I just won't have the time. I'd be getting out to Wunderland by 4:00 or so, and I'm sure you'd all be long gone by then.

TurboSaiyanJason · « **Reply #159 on:** July 08, 2009, 01:48:55 pm »

Unfortunately I can't come this time either, unless things change last minute. I might suggest postponing it or riding it out if you have enough people.

~boogiepop~ · « **Reply #160 on:** July 08, 2009, 01:54:05 pm »

Me, Charles, and Manofthepublic and still in for sure.

superjaz · « **Reply #161 on:** July 08, 2009, 02:20:49 pm »

i am debateting jtpt atw gd g pjgp this then i can afford to get my hubby another birthday present .....

Konan-ChanX3 · « **Reply #162 on:** July 08, 2009, 02:50:02 pm »

I can still come, though I'm broke so I won't be able to get into wunderland probably.

fleur_fraise · « **Reply #163 on:** July 08, 2009, 06:38:07 pm »

Oh wow, a lot of last-minute cancellations.

I can go, along with four of my friends who haven't posted here but I talked to irl. I think that we have enough people still going that changing the date would cause more problems than it would solve, but if this works out, I want to do it again in August.

Also- It costs $2.50 to get into Wunderland. A couple of dollars can get you quite a few games, too. As for lunch, feel free to eat beforehand if you need/want to. I'm probably going to buy a few little snack-y things to eat. As far as I know, Wunderland doesn't allow food inside, so eat before we get there.

nekovamp13 · « **Reply #164 on:** July 08, 2009, 07:00:40 pm »

I'm pretty sure I can still go (at least I still want to!) I won't be able to be Roxas though, so I'll probably show up in pink, purple and black as the Chesire Cat!

I know that they have air hockey there, and they have DDR, so we could hold a mini compitision?

fleur_fraise · « **Reply #165 on:** July 08, 2009, 07:04:04 pm »

I know that they for sure have air hockey, but the last time I was there, they didn't have DDR. But the last time I was there was like three months ago, so maybe they got a machine. That would be super awesome if they did.

nekovamp13 · « **Reply #166 on:** July 08, 2009, 07:14:46 pm »

Hm...The had it when I used to go, but that was a year or so ago...I hope that they got it back...

DancingTofu · « **Reply #167 on:** July 08, 2009, 10:57:31 pm »

Wunderland sold all of their DDR machines. They sold the first two in August 2007, the one that was in Salem was sold in May 2008, and the ones are Gateway Wunderland and the Avalon were sold in July 2008. They sold the rest of their rhythm games in May this year and instead purchased a handful of absolutely horrendous Guitar Hero cabinets. :/

fleur_fraise · « **Reply #168 on:** July 08, 2009, 11:09:46 pm »

They do have two awesome games that stay in my mind-

Let's Go Jungle, which I spent like ten dollars on, and also this Japanese arcade game that is entirely in Japanese and is like primitive Mario Party.

Man of the Public · « **Reply #169 on:** July 08, 2009, 11:16:48 pm »

I probly won't spend to much at Wunderland. Unless they decide to have some Fighters again.

superjaz · « **Reply #170 on:** July 08, 2009, 11:27:52 pm »

nekovamp13 · « **Reply #171 on:** July 08, 2009, 11:48:55 pm »

Really?!?! Wow, It shows how long it's been for me...

I remember those games! I love the Jap one!

Manganix78 · « **Reply #172 on:** July 09, 2009, 02:16:57 am »

I'll be able to come on Friday, though I'll probably be wearing my L cosplay again or an Akatsuki t-shirt (complete with a Itachi Uchiha Akatsuki ring(go Itachi!! BOO, Sasuke!!!).

As for info:

Name: Anthony Phonthany
Age: 24
Cosplay: Already stated it in the previous sentence.

Let me know if anybody wants to leave early from Wunderland and go to Powells in Cedar Hills Crossing or the TFAW store.

Although I'm probably gonna have to arrive a little late to Wunderland unless someone wants to give me a ride, if not then I'm gonna have to take the bus there. Oh, and I unfortunately don't have a cell phone. Also, where in Uwajimaya are we all going to meet up at? I'd personally meet all of you at the bookstore, but that's just me......

Konan-ChanX3 · « **Reply #173 on:** July 09, 2009, 03:14:28 am »

I may not be able to come after all. Grandparents are in town.

fleur_fraise · « **Reply #174 on:** July 09, 2009, 11:52:12 am »

I think we're planning on meeting in Kinokuniya, which is the bookstore. I thought I said so in this thread, but I might be wrong.

~boogiepop~ · « **Reply #175 on:** July 10, 2009, 09:17:01 am »

Mmm so, I will be the spikey haired girl wearing capri's and a black shirt with a big 'ol yellow skull on it with a longoboard. I'll be standing there, but I am shy so I probably won't make the first move to talk to anyone unless it's Charles D:

Man of the Public · « **Reply #176 on:** July 10, 2009, 09:46:11 am »

I'll be the White dude with the chin beard, Red Superman shirt, shorts, and bike.
And the twin.

fleur_fraise · « **Reply #177 on:** July 10, 2009, 10:14:07 am »

I'll look out for you guys!

Nikki, I'm the same way, so I'll try to get you in on the convo.

My group and I will be taking the bus, so if you want to ride the bus to Wunderland, stay with us.

THE PLAN IS:
Meet at the bookstore in the back of the Uwajimaya, which is named Kinokuniya. Once everyone is there, we'll get lunch, eat, and head over to the nickel arcade!

nikkiolie · « **Reply #178 on:** July 10, 2009, 01:23:54 pm »

I hope you guys have fun. If it was a day latter I would have some money...but no time

Konan-ChanX3 · « **Reply #179 on:** July 10, 2009, 01:25:03 pm »

yeah, so I don't think I'm comming in cosplay, if anything, I'll be bringing my little sister and i don't have the time to spike my hair for girly axel, i'm going to Uwajimaya anyways so if I see you I see you, if not then, oh well.

superjaz · « **Reply #180 on:** July 10, 2009, 01:34:09 pm »

Konan-ChanX3 · « **Reply #181 on:** July 10, 2009, 02:04:50 pm »

I bet, well me and my sister are heading out right now, so if we see any of you guys then cool we'll say hi, if not, oh well.

EveofAbyss · « **Reply #182 on:** July 10, 2009, 02:05:28 pm »

Have fun at Wunderland! I'll have to find my way there some other day.

Konan-ChanX3 · « **Reply #183 on:** July 10, 2009, 02:06:31 pm »

I'm not going to wunderland, I'm broke so I wont be able to get in.

EveofAbyss · « **Reply #184 on:** July 10, 2009, 02:07:51 pm »

Oh, well that stinks. But have fun anyway!

Konan-ChanX3 · « **Reply #185 on:** July 10, 2009, 02:16:23 pm »

Yeah, it turns out my grandpa's gunna come get us and we'll be going something today

~boogiepop~ · « **Reply #186 on:** July 10, 2009, 05:02:38 pm »

So that was entertaining! It was nice seeing hanging out and meeting people.
I didn't get to say goodbye to any of the girls though, since we split into to groups so it was awesome meeting you guys.
God damn, my ride home was torture though. A car almost hit me and I had to jump off my longboard and I ended up getting hurt.
So I hope everyone else was safe.

Konan-ChanX3 · « **Reply #187 on:** July 10, 2009, 05:54:57 pm »

Well, I hope you all had fun. I wish i could have gone, but I had to watch my sister, and she's a pain to keep track of XD

You didn't hurt your knee more, did you? :/

The group seemed pretty chill; looking forward to future chilling.

~boogiepop~ · « **Reply #189 on:** July 10, 2009, 08:11:54 pm »

No, twisted my ankle and it's swelled up. My knee went down though.

DancingTofu · « **Reply #190 on:** July 10, 2009, 08:26:07 pm »

You're just trying to get excuses not to play DDR with me :<

You best be healin' dat pronto. (what level White Mage are you?)

Man of the Public · « **Reply #191 on:** July 10, 2009, 09:39:12 pm »

Charles and Nikki it was nice meeting you guys, You are way cool.

Actually everyone was pretty cool, except that one guy, but all in all it was great meeting you guys.
We need to do this again sometime

~boogiepop~ · « **Reply #192 on:** July 10, 2009, 09:41:36 pm »

YOU ARE NOT WHAT I EXPECTED JAMESON BUT YOU ARE A COOL DUDE AND I WANT YOU TO COME OVER TO MY HOUSE TO CHILL WHERE THERE ARE NO MOANING DUDES.

And hahahahahahahahahahahahaha x21 yes.

fleur_fraise · « **Reply #193 on:** July 10, 2009, 10:00:34 pm »

It was cool to see you guys! Too bad about half of the list didn't show up, though. :/ And sorry to disappear at Cedar Hills, but my group got distracted by a binder full of wallscrolls at Small World Surprise, and then our ride showed up suddenly.

I'd say mission success. We need to do this again!

~boogiepop~ · « **Reply #194 on:** July 10, 2009, 10:18:35 pm »

I agree! Just minus Wunderland, that place was a hole.

You were so adorable irl Fluer!

Manganix78 · « **Reply #195 on:** July 10, 2009, 10:24:02 pm »

ku ku ku ku....... I'll admit that today's event was pretty good(Although, I didn't get anything at the Kinokuniya bookstore). If any of us want to do this again, let's try Clackamas Town Center later in the year. Mainly because there's this store("Unique Imports") that sells LOTS of plushies, J-rock and J-pop cds, keychains, swords to go along with what character you're cosplaying from a samurai anime, etc, etc.....

fleur_fraise · « **Reply #196 on:** July 10, 2009, 10:56:47 pm »

Thank you Nikki XD I felt so crappy today; I didn't have time to put on my makeup.
Your hair was so kick-ass

Everyone was kick-ass!

nyahaha · « **Reply #197 on:** July 10, 2009, 11:11:29 pm »

Wahh! i wish I coulda gone! you guys sound like you had loads of fun! I wanna come to the next one!

QFT.

The Clackamas Town Center has a decent selection of stores, and is actually one of the larger malls in the area; it's about the same size as the Lloyd Center if I'm not mistaken, plus a larger food court and parking off the heezy. There are a few meetups that usually pop up every 3 or 4 months there, so keep your eyes out for them. I haven't been to any of those meetups, but I've heard they're usually pretty fun. Like Beaverton though, Happy Valley is pretty out of the way for some people.

I'll probably be putting together get-togethers every couple weeks in August, mostly at Ground Kontrol or Lloyd Center and focusing around gaming, because that's what I'm into. I might do a Hawthorne meetup too if I can find good places for medium to large-sized groups to hang out. Bear in mind that costumes aren't really something I'm interested in, so I wouldn't be doing cosplay gatherings; just opportunities to hang out. I won't stop anyone from cosplaying though.

Also, get-togethers aside, if any of you want to hang out, hit me up via PM here or shoot me a text/call if you have my number.
