NAVA Gamer's Meeting, August 30th: "Make A Name For Yourself" NOW WITH PHOTOS
NAVA = North Atlantic Videogame Afficionados. It's FREE, and YOU are invited to attend.
Previously at NAVA...
- Though presumed dead, John Hardie showed up, and many attendees received 15% discounts.
- A Wii Mario Kart champion was crowned and possibly violated.
- Tootsie Rolls were hurled at an astonished crowd during a Rock Band performance.
- A meeting was held in the bargain bin.
- One-up mushrooms were served.
- Tremendous amounts of games and systems traded hands between attendees.
- Pictures and video tell it best:

As NAVA continues to grow, it may seem to some that it's gotten a little impersonal - everyone doesn't KNOW each other like they did in "the old days" and we're not all so great at walking up to strangers and introducing ourselves. The end result is that we sometimes find out after pictures are posted exactly who certain people are. NAVA is - and has always been about - gamers mingling with gamers. I've got an idea for getting that mingling back a little.
Name badges.
You were expecting something a little more elaborate, weren't you? Think about it. With a simple tag showing your FORUM name as well as your real name, there's no longer a need for those awkward "who is this guy standing next to me" moments. We'll try it out this time, see how it goes, and make it a new tradition if it works out. I've already designed the badge.
That said, if you want a name badge made for you (courtesy of Digital Press), simply post here that you will be attending, and give me your real name (last name is optional). I'll figure out the forum name, I'm smart like that.
I don't have a tournament planned, but it's always in our schedule for 6pm. There was some discussion among the PBC Production folks about doing a "Reckless Cyclist" (the mini-game within Mister Mosquito that seems to be a hit around here lately) tournament, so that's a possibility.
Are you ready? It's time for another NAVA.
When: Saturday, August 30th, noon to midnight.
Where: Digital Press Videogames: http://tinyurl.com/yscakm
What happens: Gaming, trading, tournaments, big prizes! Attendance is FREE. Half price for kids!
What can I bring?: Snacks, soda and beer are always appreciated. Cakes have been very popular as well.

I really can't wait for this one especially since I couldn't make it in last month. I had so many consecutive NAVA attendances going too >_<
