It's been a little while, but how do people feel about having a new
meetup sometime next week? Possibly on Wedesday or Thursday? It
seemed like people had a good experience at the first one, but it also
looks like we might need to actually book a venue with the large
number of people who showed up, so if you have any thoughts about
places which might be good for a 10-20 person meetup, let us all know!

I am into it, but next week is GCAP until Wednesday, so I would say
Thursday is going to be better for most of us going to that.

Cheers!

Next week Thursday is RMIT Games Graduate Show 2011, and goes on till Sunday.
How about we get GCAP11 and RMIT GGS11 out of the way and have the meetup the week after?

Cheers,
Chad

I'm definitely up for it... Sounds like two weeks from now will suit most of us too!

I will def show up on the next meeting. I just released a Unity made game on the App Store and it's currently top 10 in the Entertainment section.. it's called Oscura. hopefully there will be a sequel, and then I might need to get in contact with some clever Unity devs.. :)

Sweet, it's sounding like the week after next makes sense. Man, with
two IGDA things this week, it's looking like a pretty full plate this
next fortnight!

Woo! Hope people had a good time at GCAP!

Now that we've all hopefully cooled down a bit, is there a good time
next week for people to do a casual little Unity meetup? Thursday is
best for me, but I'm pretty flexible. However, I get the feeling that
we might be best off booking a space this time around, or having a bbq
somewhere outside?

I can do thursday next week (or wednesday as well as I know some are after a wednesday meetup) Although either of those times will seriously eat into my Skyrim playtime ;-)

Cheers!

Hey Folks,

Firstly, I need to apologise for going super quiet... New contract, Baby that doesn't sleep, i've been sick and sleep deprived. So I have just been hibernating between work and home and haven't even opened my twitter app for the last 3 weeks.

Clearly I dropped the ball in terms of working with Alan to get more of a structure to this meet-up. So a BIG thanks to Alan for getting a gig together anyway.

I am happy with either of the days next week. Once it's decided I will send out a tweet.

Cheers, and sorry again.

I'll have to +1 on Thursday as well (at least for next week) - but
after that, hopefully things will be a bit more fluid :)

Hey everyone,

GCAP was awesome :) It was great to see familiar faces and meet a whole heap of new ones.
Wednesday and Thursday are fine with me as well, although I won't be able to stay late on Thursday as I have an uncle's birthday to attend.
We should definitely try to get a bigger space!

Looking forward to the email/tweet announcement.

Cheers,
Chad

Great! Sounds like Thursday is the best time for people. I'll start
looking around for some spaces; if anyone has any ideas, let me know!

I'll do my best to show up. I'm currently living out in the sticks!
I have some things I need to do in town so if it's definitely on for
Thursday the 24th
I can leave my errands until then.

I'm interested to find out what kind of a mix we have in this Unity
group, so I'm pretty
keen to come and meet you all. I have a sneaking suspicion that there
are a lot of coders!
(Which would be great!)

Cheers,
Adrian

I went ahead and booked a big table at the Queensbury Hotel this
Thursday (the 24th) for us. 5.30 until 8 or 9.
http://maps.google.com/maps?q=queensbury+hotel+in+melbourne&hl=en&emb=0&sa=N&tab=vl

It's pretty easy to get to, and there's actually a semi-decent chance
of scoring parking in the area.

Meetup -
Time: 5.30 - 9, although feel free to come and go as your schedule
allows
Place: Queensbury Hotel, 593 Swanston Street, Carlton (Corner of
Swanston and Queensbury)

Sound good?
