Whats going on?
The Aria Team will be there of course!
We are still arranging the finer details, but we will be having competitions and tournaments for prizes in the PC zone. It will be very informal!
RawZ will be demonstrating the finer aspects of overclocking to us mortals so its worth the trip alone to see the master in action :D
Food and drinks will be provided and there is a full bar for those who wish to purchase something a bit stronger!
Attendees as of 20/5

not going but must say that looks like a cracking venue, maybe allow aria to negiotiate providing the gaming pcs for them in the future too ;)
It's a great venue.. we all had a nose about and its geek nirvana :D
Hopefully I can pop along on the day and it does indeed look a fantastic venue, I'll try to stop by for a swift one the next time I'm in town! :thumb:

I doubt 14 year olds are alowed to go...
Who's actually going?
I can likely go.
I doubt 14 year olds are alowed to go...
aslong as your parents have allowed you i cant see a problem just cause theres a bar doesnt mean under 18's cant go without permission i would assume as the bar will just ask everyone for ID and if you are found to be buying for underage people you will at the least be asked to leave at worst be seeing the cops an losing some of your money
Needs a poll.
I can't go, its my dads 60th Birthday, super huge party.

You might not end up moving at all - the bar is well stocked ;)
It would appear im working that saturday but i`ll push for an early shift (4pm finish) so i can still make it
Should be stated to only vote if you would of been able to make it and cant and not that you aint going cause you dont want to that way if the majority say they cant make it perhaps a chage of date

Considering it is an official announcement I should imagine it has been booked.
There won't ever be a weekend when everyone can go, in fact I should think that 1/3 of the forum would be in a position to go on any given weekend.
Aye, the date isn't changing now. We already talked it to death here.
just checked out the site for it
looks like a nice, place. Do you think RawZ will make some O'C Cocktails :P haha
do have the whole place to our selves ? or just a room ? would love to check out gaming on 3D monitors :drool:

Is there the possibility of webcasting the OCing Demo from Rawz at the gathering? For us what cannot attend.
Or even just setting up a few webcams we at home can stream live and watch/comment on proceedings?
Just a thought.

I will stay in the same hotel as everyone else. Surely it would only be cheaper if people shared rooms? I don't think I am up for that :closet

It's only one day, we'll ride down on the bike and then up again on the same day.
It'll only take ~2.5 hours.
I'll just need to teach him PC gaming before 4th June :L
Technically he's a forum member under the name 'Rocketman'.
Hope you lot enjoy yourselves as it looks like it could be a great day. Sadly, I'll be in Portugal on a lads weekend.

and a thanks to the ARIA team for organising this, again although I can't make it , it's good to know that the team are so supportive and are willing to do these types of things for their loyal customers.
Ill be there.. only a few days before my birthday...
Off to check the bus timetables... shame its not a friday, could of just stumbled into rock.... actually its shut down.. bugger.
Off to check bus/train timetables.
I will have a think about how to make this work. I don't work Saturdays but it'll take a fair few hours to get there regardless of mode of transport. Also costs, so I'll see what I can do.
Thinking of taking Friday off work if THE BOSS allows it, then staying Friday and Saturday nights.
Sure why not, depends how far from the Manchester Picadilly station but I'll try be there. Need some directions :P.
Sounds good, what games are we including and stuff? Or what we doing besides saying hello and watching the master at work?
About a 25 min walk from Piccadilly station, it's just across the road from MMU, and near the "Deaf Institute", "The Pub" and "The Footage" :)
and "The Footage" :)
Is that some sort of foot-fetish related store? :P

Haha, it's an old cinema turned into a pub/drinking establishment. :P
That sort of stuff is more Northern Quarter ;)

why are you taking this seriously?

I've got your back Zodiark!
welcome to Aria, white rider :)
just seen this thread, i MAY be able to attend........ want to, but not sure if jet-lag will get better of me, since only get back the day before.
It your not up for gaming because of the lag, you can always mingle and socialise instead ;)

it's the driving up there im more worried. Manchester is not close.
Bristol area when i set off, and afterwards to Luton.
it's like a massive detour.
:lol: yeah it is a bit of a distance, i`ll give you that one ;)
just had a look on exact distance, google map says over 6 hours just in the car. so most probably not going to be able to attend for that weekend. :(

Their website has games like CS:S and such like as 18+.
Would that mean I'll get angry looks from the manager if I took part.
Also, do we need to buy a 4 hour gaming slot?

Where can i get a: 'Hi I'm Terbinator' t-shirt printed?
As if a group of tech heads and gamers wasn't socially awkward enough already.

Might just take you up on that.
PM incoming.
I was in there recently for the first time... Only used the 360's but wasn't too impressed with it. I wanted to see what the PC's were like but my mate refused to play anything that wasn't COD (fanboy) and they don't have COD on PC Apparently... Which I found strange for a popular gaming bar.
The way people go on about it I think I was expecting too highly of it, you know... Good equipment. If you care about your score you'll take your own controllers... I'd consider theirs a bit... worn out?
