Just a quick reminder that the in-game EQ researchers meeting is today, Saturday Nov 22, at 3pm U.S. EST/9pm Central European. The meeting will take place on the Bristlebane server in the Butcherblock Mountains right outside the city of Kaladim. In EQ tradition everyone is encouraged to start a lvl 1 dwarf and we will then meet up for drunken races and fireworks shooting (whadacombo!) ;) Look forward to seeing folks there!
/join eqrm once in and send a tell to nafu or ludoo if you need any help

Thanks to everyone who came out tonight - it was a kick :) At the peak I think we had around 18 people from several countries which is pretty cool. Between the races and the multiple deaths (it wouldn't be EQ without CRs!) it was a lot of fun. Heh, I won't name names but suffice to say that one of our very own TN folks probably took the prize for drunken-dwarfness. I want to especially thank Micke Jakobsson for all his help getting stuff ready this afternoon - buying up loads of ale is a two person job! Anyway, if people want to send me their screenshots I will put up a collection (URL to be announced) as a way of distributing. Once again, great to see folks in-game and maybe we can make the rounds to other worlds in the future :)

What i forgot to say was a big thanks to TL and Micke for the organization.
TL
>18 people from several countries
I think we were pretty darn global: Denmark, Canada, US, UK, Sweeden..
there must have been more countries too, and probably a fairly wide disciplinary spread too
Same time next week ?

A complete blast. Excellently organized, TL (and MJ!).
But I must say I'm completely shocked that you would add gnome poison to my ale, just to keep me out of the race (and I have screenshots to prove it, this is a scandal).
Let's very much do this again In Other Worlds.
