Maybe next year it's in Norway, and the year after, Tokyo?

I would go to those. Tokyo might be halfway around the world for me, but it would be worth it. I just don't like going to America because it's so... hot, filled with dangerous things (not to mention the inhabitants), you can't do anything until you're 21/60, the accents are irritating and they say aluminum. I believe Tokyo suffers from none of those.

I agree with Urist. Steampunk is like Darth Vader winning Holland's Next Top Model. It would be awesome but not something I'd like in this game.

But then, life was also easier when I was running around here pretending to be a man, so I guess I should just "man up" and get back to work.

No, we don't pronounce it either way; it's pronounced "THAT-stu-FF-DEM-b-EER-cansis-MADE-a"

Anyway, you're thinking of Texas. That is exactly as you fear. California is very different.

Seattle. The Meetups are already there.

I can see it now. We rent out a whole events center to fill it with a single booth and Tarn Adams.

PTTG, if Florida and Texas are both like that, who's to say that CA won't be?

Really? Did that one ignorant Texan take only eight years of blundering to convince the world that the US is a festering cesspool of inbreeding and hate, only a few poisonous mammals short of being Australia?

I mean, we're really sorry. Why else do you think we elected Obama? The only way the message could be clearer is if we made him wear a sign saying "I'm sorry about the Bush thing."

Anyway, this thread is getting too political. We all need to take a break from this and play a game of Liberal Crime Squad.

That would be awesome, and if by chance aliens kidnap me and release me half the world from where I live, I'll be glad to come !
Besides, Voting is Fun.

I'd protest, but as you said, this thread is getting too political.

Aluminium. I must get around to raw-ing that.

I'd think a mining town up in the Colorado Rockies would be more "dwarfy" and more centralized in the country in the country then a place in Cali.

Like Gypsum, Colorado or something. Or Dillion, which is by a lake up in the mountains. Its in a central location, but its probably still far away from where anybody lives though.

Also its Aluminum because thats what the guy who discovered it decided to name it.

I myself wouldn't be able to go, but I think that it's only fair for our NATO friends to see the Toady One in person.
