So most of you know I have all the video and will eventually have all the pictures that were taken during the 5 days we were all in Portland, Maine. I made a separate thread so I can update what I find/make/upload and people don't need to click on page 60-whatever.
First I want to say thank you to everyone who went. Not only are we supporting 4pp and the community we have, but we are making a statement about Online relationships. The fact that 11+ people, who have only spoken to each other online and didn't even know each other's real names, could get together in one place at one time, share a hotel and fees, go out to eat, go to a convention, and get along remarkably well shows that Online communication is a big deal, and a real thing. I don't think any of us thought that this trip to Maine would go as well as it did, and I'm incredibly thankful for it. Now not only did we have an awesome vacation from our own lives, but we met new people and made new experiences that all generated from the internet. I tend to think this is a huge feat and it makes me really excited for the future of internet communication.
With that out of the way, here's a short un-edited video of us on the first night in Maine. Here's a quick way for you to meet everyone and maybe get dizzy. I'll update regularly as I make new videos. I have about 5 ideas right now. I'll try my best to get them done quickly between work and game-time.
