I dunno how but matteo's pizza topic got me thinking how cool it would be if all us usuals were close enough to all hang out and play together.
We could order pizza and do all kinds of big multiplayers. Just seems like a lot of the people on here have a lot of good synergy lately!

Mattao* lol and S*** that'd be epic!! Too bad we don't live near one another :(
Oops yes it would. Could you imagine a 20 person commander attack left.
Or all of the three on three or two headed giants
When need to find sponsors to fund and organize a meet up.

Ha, nice. We could have stations where people could go up and hear lectures. Like someone talking about the history of mtg. And another reviewing the story timeline.
Could even invite kaleo in to do a talk about not sucking.
And coffee vampire would hit on some neat topics to I bet.

Where would be a good neutral location? I know Vegas is easy to rent space, and relatively cheap to fly (like $350 round trip from New York).
Alright guys lets get the plans together...we are going to need like 10 party pizzas, like 100 2-liters and A LOT of table space...

Well a gymnasium with lots of tables and chairs would work. I would say find a neutralish date. Then anyone interested in going could post there location and then we could centralize it
Will the pizza be 3 meat 6 cheese, or 3 cheese 6 meat? I need details! this sounds like a great idea, but I don't have any free time for a trip to anywhere anytime soon, so count me out. Send me a postcard. :D
And I have some allergies so I'll just bring my own pizza. Anyone opposed to me bringing music? If not I'll bring music and everyone can bring their own music things! Yeah lol like my parents would ever let me :P

I think everyone should pair up with 2 other people with the same taste and each group will bring a different pizza :D

I live 2 hours away from vegas. I can do that.
speaking of vegas, I get to go on school field trips to vegas. The human bodies exhibit, almost got to see blue man group, jabowakees, I love living close to vegas.
I'm planning a move there, I love Las Vegas. Where do you live? Salt Lake City?
I'm in Canada :(
I so want this to happen! I've got 3 people I constantly play and not to be a bag of douche but...they aren't good enough. They know what to do but they lack in deck building skills. It'd be nice to get to meet some of you fellow iMtGers!
Too bad,maybe I can join through Skype?

The jabawokees are siiiick!
The near future would be impossible for me, which sucks cuz i'm in AZ and a drive up to vegas wouldn't be hard.
This is a cool idea though. Maybe make it open to public entry to promote the app/community
I'm in New York...maybe we could each get pizzas and play the worlds largest skype commander game?
I would love that idea.Then at least everyone will get to play.Propose the largest commander game through Skype so that iMtG might get some sponsors.{Piotr}, what do you think.
We might be able to do a multiple monitor skype

Where would we meet? Renting convention halls is insanely expensive in Vegas...
There are tons of gaming stores in Vegas. I'm sure we could all meet at Little Shop of Magic, Heroes Playground or somewhere similar. I doubt we'd have the turnout for a convention center.

Must be nice. Where I'm at in NC right now, it's about $600 to fly round trip from the airport to back home in Chicago. To get decent rates, I'd have to drive 3-4 hours to another airport lol... Maybe I'd just road trip it lol
I too live in NY
This entire concept would be EPIC. Almost completely impractical but EPIC none the less. Pizza and MtG, two of my favorite things.
Oh snap, skype really does make this realistic
For those that would be coming from the East coast, Vegas is neither central nor is it inexpensive......just sayin ;) but I would love to meet all of you and play some Commander!!!
I was in Las Vegas from sept. 25th -> October 1st. My round trip plane ticket was $350. Traveled Southwest Airlines out of Islip/McArthur Airport. The hotel room was the expensive part -.-

In '09 when I was planning a trip there, they had packages that included round trip air and four nights in a hotel. It was around $650 I believe. That was also four years ago though.
I'll browse priceline a bit. I'm think school sem is about to end if anyone would like to pitch an imaginary date to start with
I don't know how Vegas pizza is thought, probably not as good as NY pizza. So we should host it here...so I don't have to travel far.

I'm going to be in NC at the beginning of December, looking for places to live. Maybe you can show me around. I'm a vegitarian, but I'm sure you've got some great eateries.

That'd be swell! Which part?
Yeah there's a really cool super salad buffet place called sweet tomatoes. They've got all of the vegitables. Lol I like there soups. And I almost like vegitarian mexican food better than with meat. Dem mushrooms.
Not to mention I know all the stores and lgs
I'm going to be in Raleigh. My brother is taking a physical for the Fire Department, so were going to make a week out of it. He's a carnivore, I'm sure you two would get along just fine.

Because we can play Magic in the forests and mountains :D while casting Forests & Mountains!!!!
-snicker- ... wait.. just a couple months and they'll be snow covered mountains and forests...
Asheville is about 6-8 hours from me. Raleigh is 2-3.
Could meet in raleigh and go to ashville
I could fit maybe 6/7
I'm going to be in Raleigh on December 1st - 5th. It'd be down to hang out then. Maybe we can get something together an have a little iMtG-fest.

How long of a drive is nc to ohio and how central is ohio to the rest of imtg. Midwest sounds good
NC or NY? Big diff :P in Columbus, myself. Like I said earlier, google maps says 9 and a half hours to Ashville. I can get to western-mid NY in less than half that time, just gotta scoot right through PA.

Either, if its ohio the fastest route for yourself to ohio. I was saying if you wanted to ride with me I'd be going from nc. But I could take people from raleigh and stop in ashville to because it'd be sorta on the way

As soon as I hit the lotto jackpot tonight, I'll buy the house to make this happen.

Small town called Granville, about an hour from Columbus.
I'm fine with Vegas and I'm pretty sure my lgs would be fine with hosting a two headed giant commander tournament.
Totally like the idea, but after planning several events at work and such. 20 people say "yes 100%", 4 people show up. So honestly I think it would be better to keep it slightly smaller.
Semi related note, will be in Syracuse/Jamesville NY Dec. 21-29th if anyone would like to hang. Shoot me a pm and we'll see if we can't make an arrangement.

Good idea for someone to resurrect this (forgot the title of it). I'm going to Virginia instead of North Carolina for this vacation. I've got a lot of things to do. :( I would have enjoyed a meet and greet. You can still find me on Magic Online! We can play there.
Poughkeepsie and Westchester areas of NY are close to me if anyone is ever around.
I'm north of Seattle about an hour north of renton (wizards hq)
If anyone wants to hang out with me at GP Sacremento...?
It's almost an imtg get-together :P
Philly gp is in April if anyone wants to meet beforehand.
