Jawohl, mein Nikster!

Hopefully the double 100s + deco bottles will be enough gas for both, though bottomtime at 190' will have to be shortish.

Great Zeuss. Fare well down there. (by that I mean... safe ascent, and all)

I vote Lecter hosts it. I'm just dyin' to get my tropical snorkling fix.

Oh, my wife would love that; she's not much of a computer game fan.

Why would we all fly, sail, or swim to Hawaii to interact with eachother the same way we can do from home? I'm talkin' Luaus, snorkeling, surfing, hula dancing, and drunken sunburns!

I volunteer to take all the [VPR]s and [TGFT]s out for lava tube diving.

Trying to organize a California bay area dinner / VO convention

Location : Chieftain Irish Pub

The Chieftain Irish Pub & Restaurant
198 5th St, San Francisco, CA ‎
(415) 615-0916 ‎ · thechieftain.com

voted best irish pub in SF!
certain nights have live music!

(no pool table, no dart board. just a table for us, food and booze)

they have decent booze/food prices and a menu that has meat and meatless options
the restaurant is a 5 minute walk from Powell St BART station, right down 5th Street.

TIME : TBA (based on availability of those that can attend) possibly late July, early August

Not fond of Hawaii, but if his divining skills are that good... I'll be going to the VO-Con in Hawaii.

Jul 21, 2013 ryan reign link

If another player..mod..or dev (highly unlikely) would give me permission I'll host the greater northwest vo-con. Maybe rent a banquet hall at the casino and we can play host to showing off VO. Even if it wasnt a legit vo-con we could still get together to promote VO. I dunno..maybe just have a VO party. Bring I'd!! My buddy has a pool some of you could snorkel in. I'll throw a turtle in for effect!;)

Ryan Reign obviously hasn't tasted my properly pared steak (oliveoil,salt,pepper) and beer meal.

In other news I'll sell my left testicle to make it to the main vo convention so the devs better be careful (ph33r the homosexual supersentual highly combat capable spider)

Challenge accepted you one testicled spider fiend! Ten paces, turn and cook!

Spidey, did you mean "paired" or "prepared" ?

I'll make the San Francisco Bay Area one. Have them start my Guinness so that it's ready to drink when I arrive.
Jul 22, 2013 Lord~spidey link
Hmmm I guess I was wrong, there's the word pare that means to trim off/prepare the steak before you cook it but yeah essentially the jist of a damn good rib eye is to sauce it up nicely with olive oil then rub in some kosher salt and pepper it to your desire then you let it sit at room temp for a decent amount of time before throwing it on a searing hot grill as to get it to brown before you start cooking the insides too much, if you cook a steak*specially lean cuts* beyond medium rare you've wasted a good steak and you might as well have purchased a crappier cut of meat.

fuck man that made me hungry

I'd contend that a steak is still excellent at medium to medium well.
Jul 23, 2013 bjornvader link
the san francisco food + booze meet & great thread is in the "off topic" section of the forums.
Jul 23, 2013 Dr. Lecter link
Contend all you like, it's just wrong to overcook a steak like that. I once walked out on a date who ordered her filet well done.
