I'm still hoping we can arrange a Michigan carpool so we can all save cash if 3 or so of us are able to go.

So THAT'S why cheese doesn't bother me, but icecream melts my tongue... I'd no idea!

Lactose intolerance has nothing to do with taste or anything; it's purely digestive. If something causes other symptoms it's not lactose intolerance, and may be an allergy. Also, if you react to things that have traces of milk in them regardless of their sugaryness (say, having similar reactions to cheese and milk), it's probably an allergy.

Further, most sweet milk products (yogurt, frozen yogurt, soft serve, but it seems not so much regular ice cream) are sweetened with milk solids, which are almost all lactose instead of other sugars. So they cause me more problems than milk itself does. I've actually become violently ill from drinking a quantity of yogurt that, had it been milk, would have done little more than make me gassy.

Also, I second this job business. I has no moneyz.

No, not the taste at all... if I eat ice cream or drink milk or something like that, it actually damages my tongue. It's like I'm eating acid, honestly... it also messes with my guts, of course, but because my stomach has been in pain for the past three months or so (lack of food), it's significantly less noticeable, except for perhaps bad gas from time to time (after milk products)

stupid economic decline...

Nuff said.

I'm totally making a Robotnik easter-ish egg at some point.

Also, thanks to everyone who offered support about the general lack of food... You guys are amazing.

I'm ok, and I'm surviving, so please don't worry too much. Hopper's job finally paid off everything he owed, and in a couple weeks, it'll be back to normal... he got laid off and we had ot sac food money to pay bills, so we all just ate less...

Reading some of the things (and replying to them) actually made me cry happy tears... AIM/MSN/YIM, my e-mail, chatPM and TSCPM... everywhere I looked, people were making sure I was ok...

Gamers are awesome.

Ok. So, with Mike's recent departure, I have been reconsidering the timing of the convention. The main reason for having it in the winter was so he could come. He said he would still probably come, since it was not the purpose for his trip, but I question the idea of planning the convention around someone who does not care that much, when if it were timed differently, we could potentially get many more people able to come.

So I am considering instead of January 2010, sometime in the summer of 2010? I am still up for January if people would prefer that, but am thinking that summer may be a better time all around. Just looking for thoughts on this, and really if anyone is against the change. I was thinking we could maybe even do it around Sonic's birthday :O.

There are lots of advantages to having the convention in the summer, but if there are reasons that people think January would be preferable, I would like to hear those too, so we can have all views before making a final decision.

Perhaps we should hold a TSC convention for Europe this winter in the UK.

AND THEN

THE GRAND TSC EUROPE SNOWBALL TOURNEY CHAMPIONSHIP CUP

havent read the whole thread, but where would this convention be?

Aitamen · « **Reply #71 on:** June 23, 2009, 01:11:37 am »

PPA, I would eat you alive in a snowball fight (provided my "tools" are allowed >_>)

otherwise, I refuse to participate.

flying fox · « **Reply #72 on:** June 29, 2009, 06:17:08 am »

Well since the convention has been moved to next summer, it looks very likely I can go to it. I didn't post in here before because I wasn't sure about coming due to money issues and then Rolken left for a while so I wasn't sure this convention was still happening or not. However, since it is then yeah I'll come.

I will have plenty of time to save money and I don't think time would be an issue. Also since I'm only 5 foot tall I don't think you'll have a problem with space XD.

The only problem I have is when I get to America, I wouldn't know what to do then because this will be the first time I set foot abroad on my own. So yeah little bit nervous about that especially with my AS, I can get confused easily :S but yeah I'd love to go :D

fastnaturedude · « **Reply #73 on:** June 29, 2009, 01:26:11 pm »

SUMMER?!

YES!!!

I can 100% definitely go now.

The fact that anyone could even possibly look at it that way disgusts me, and I've lost quite a bit of faith for humanity from your statement alone... way to go

My mom would let me go, considering she's not as paranoid as every other parent out there. :/

i didn't mean it like that >_> but yeah looks like i SHOULDn't be going now. So i wont even try.

Edit: I mean i shouldn't of put it like that >.<

Hey Werey, here's a shovel, keep digging. <_<
As for me, I'd like to sure, but unless it's within a couple hours of the lovely State of Maine, I can't. Enjoy yourselves!

Ok, so the timing is getting pretty fixed for next summer, looking to be probably right around the end of June, beginning/middle of July. Want to know what people's timelines are like, and probably avoid the 4th, because even though I wouldn't really mind having it over the 4th, I am sure it would make it harder for at least one person to go, so either want to do it before or after that. Also with it being in the summer, I am not really concerned about space at all. People can camp out in our backyard, etc if we have tons of people.

So yeah, give me any conflicts, to see if we can find any dates with no conflicts, and what dates would work for people, and remind me again if you are definitely coming, a probably, or a maybe with your dates. Thanks! :D

yse · « **Reply #83 on:** July 22, 2009, 07:48:41 am »

Oh that's awesome news. That's like... right when my holidays are :D

I think uni holidays are late June to late July - I'll come back later with exact dates. I get not wanting to have anything on the 4th of July, but rest assured I know a few people who I'd love to spend a 4th of July with. X)

So er, if it's in July, pencil me in. June would be tricky because I wouldn't be able to commit until my exam timetable for that semester came out... which is far from ideal.

Like I said before, good luck trying to get me to have set plans a year in advance. But summers are usually alright.

CosmicFalcon · « **Reply #85 on:** July 22, 2009, 04:57:41 pm »

I will have just graduated (hopefully!), and will probably be unemployed and in masses of student debt. So... while I will have the free time... will I have the money? Maybe. Maybe.

so I would go but....

I kind of forgot who's who.

No seriously, who are you people? Every time I go in the chat I have people saying hi to me that know my name and I don't know theirs D:

Its sad and frightening at the same time
