Josh Chestnut (+1 guest)“ It was great to see so many members, old and new, under the same roof. A great time was had by all and we may have found a venue in which to game more often... Win:win ” -
Matt Williams (+1 guest)“ Had a fantastic time! Pizza was great, and enjoyed talking to friends; old and new. ” -
Ant Epp (+1 guest)“ Awesome!! The potential to game there......SWEET ” -
“ The only way I could think of to improve is if there were some sort of way to have each person introduce themselves and the games they are interested in. It would work better in a quieter, less "L" shaped table setting... so not really possible at Clockwork. I think that a big part of the success (besides the auspiciousness of the celebration) was the pizza on a crane. It was not something that most people would have experienced before or could afford to do on their own. So it was genius to pick it. But maybe there's something similar that is not readily open to the public that might pique gamer curiosity and this is the close to the sort of thing I do for a living actually (planning unique events for tour passengers) so I will think about what might work for DG in a future event that could also incorporate the meet'n'greet aspect I mentioned first. Good going guys! ” -
“ Enjoyed myself very much. I'll look forward to more events at Clockwork Pizzeria. ” -
“ thanks for everything Chris & Matt! ” -
“ So much fun!! The pizza was great, and it was fun to watch the crane bring it out. I enjoyed talking with everyone and meeting some new faces. ” -
“ It was really fun! It was great to see a good turnout and especially to see some new faces. On top of that, the pizza was good and we may have a new venue for gaming too! ” -

Also, isn't it funny that THIS discussion is our most active ever - and it has nothing to do with gaming?
LOL, thanks Bill. It's fine - I just want everyone to show up and have a good time. If we have people that want to go in together and get the giant pizza, that's great! If we have people that want to order on their own, that's fine too. Like Bill said, it's just about getting together and having some fun. We'll work it out.
Disappointment about cranes & concerns about food being less than ideal--put all of that aside. The point was to celebrate the Anniversary of Decatur Gamers and I suggest we support the group's Organizer (who'd probably be glad to turn over the reins at any point!) & joyfully eat whatever is in front of you!
Correct. Brian, on the other hand, can be punched at any time.
Can I only punch you in the throat if you try to organize something? :)
Josh is looking for people to go in with him on the 42". So for those of you wanting to do that, go ahead.
Next time I decide to organize something like this, someone punch me in the throat, ok?
Chants "Crane Crane Crane" heh put up a vote!
Chaos! Total chaos! :)
You guys know you can get the 42" in 4 different pizzas, right?
*sigh* Because we had some people comment that they would prefer ordering on their own to get specifically what they wanted.
no giant crane pizza? what happened? I thought if we got 15+ people it was on, we got 19.???
Yes, it was. But organizing that proved... ineffective. Maybe next time. Still, come for pizza!
So not bringing the giant pizza on the crane? I thought that was the USP, unique selling proposition.
Details for this party have been changed slightly. Now, everyone will order and pay for their own food. See the Message Board for details.
Wow, that was a big jump in RSVPs. That's great!
Looks like we are going to make it!!!!
Scratch that, Julie Marques posted on FB that she's coming, too.
I'm hoping we get the Julies and their SO's to come. I haven't heard from them in a while.
Alright, I know there are more of you out there! Come on, it's pizza!
:P
