hey guys i am thinking of starting a fan club for giant bomb. I already got one guy on board. I want to meet once a month and we can watch quicklooks and stuff and have pizza. i have a projector we can use. After that we can play black ops or something cool. I am in the Florida area so trying to keep it local.
I was even thinking that if we get enough people... like 100-200... we can once a year maybe fly to salsalito to see meet Jeff, Ryan, Brad, and Vinny.
Let me know if anyone is interested.
STARTING BOMBER FAN CLUB
I legitimately thought it was for the CFL team the Winnipeg Blue Bombers. Reflecting I can't believe that's what I was expecting, but I clicked to declare my intentions of starting a rival Rider Nation fan club. Too bad.
ALL BOMBERS UNITE!!!!!
i actually want to make t-shirts and stuff.
my ultimate goal,... down the line, is to be the next Penny Arcade expo type thing.
Last night I couldn't sleep cause I was so excited about this and coming up with it. The quote below kept going through my head:
" Ray, people will come Ray. They'll come to Iowa for reasons they can't even fathom. They'll turn up your driveway not knowing for sure why they're doing it. They'll arrive at your door as innocent as children, longing for the past. Of course, we won't mind if you look around, you'll say. It's only $20 per person. They'll pass over the money without even thinking about it: for it is money they have and peace they lack. And they'll walk out to the bleachers; sit in shirtsleeves on a perfect afternoon. They'll find they have reserved seats somewhere along one of the baselines, where they sat when they were children and cheered their heroes. And they'll watch the game and it'll be as if they dipped themselves in magic waters. The memories will be so thick they'll have to brush them away from their faces. People will come Ray. The one constant through all the years, Ray, has been baseball. America has rolled by like an army of steamrollers. It has been erased like a blackboard, rebuilt and erased again. But baseball has marked the time. This field, this game: it's a part of our past, Ray. It reminds of us of all that once was good and it could be again. Oh... people will come Ray. People will most definitely come. "
Why would I waste time, flying to whatever basement you live in to watch Quick Looks and eat pizza? I can do that at my apartment.
RULES
- Find troubled people and add their names and pictures. Only 20 people will fit in your book.
- Promise to help them. Mark promises with Promise Stickers. Never be late with fulfilling your promises.
- Whenever you solve someone's problem, it makes you happy, so a Happy Sticker will be added to your book.
- No removing stickers! Use Promise Stickers to keep track of people until everyone is happy.
Oh wait wrong Bombers.
I'll totally join the club but first could you give me your address and the times when you house is completely empty.
Ok guys so just a quick update:
There are now 5 official members. 2 guys I met on neogaf, myself and my brother and cousin.
I want to assign rank to help motivate people to join, so the sooner you join the higher your rank. We are looking for officers right now to fill the ranks so get in as soon as possible!
Now, onto the really meaty news. One of the guys says he knows Jeff from back in the day and that if this thing got big enough he could probably ask Jeff to make a PERSONAL appearance at like our main annual meeting. That would be really cool.
Next I am trying to get sponsors on board like Razer mice and logitech and maybe even Sony and Microsoft. See if they are willing to put up some swag like shirts and mousepads and stuff for our LAN parties as prizes. I actually just recieved a reply from the company "Bawls" that makes an energy drink geared towards gamers. They said they would "like more information" and are "interested".
So that's all for now fellow bombers! I will try to keep updating as we start to really put this thing together.
Still looking for more people to join. We currently have 9.
FIRST MEETING HAS BEEN POSTED.
Feb 19th. Saturday.
For the first meeting I am going to provide all the food and beverages as sorta a welcoming gift. we will have pizza and I will get candy and stuff and some energy drinks.
ALSO. One member has suggested a good idea. We are going to be showing 1 episode of the persona endurance run at the beginning of each meeting. After that we will do a few recent quick looks and then start the LAN party.
I don't think I could watch the Persona Endurance Run again. But if you wanted to play Megaman, Bomberman, or just blow stuff up in someone's backyard, I'd be down.
