If skype, January, everyone is home because they're out of money. But yeah, January is usually a fairly uneventful month.

Well, the summer wouldn't work out for me because I have camp and VBS and youth trips and stuff. Sometime in the spring, maybe? Or even January or February... there's almost nothing to do then.

We could even have more than one meet up...That would mean less people at each one, but more people in all could go. Right now Georgia or some where mid-west, like Missouri or Illinois is looking like the best option. If we find somewhere to host it, that would help us with the dates. For Eruheran and I GA would work best, so far we have Shawn, Griffin, PotK, and was there one more? For Missouri we have Airianna, Arias Myles, Evening L. Aspen...Illinois we have Villise, Willow, and Arias, and finally Kentucky seems hypothetical for everyone... So far GA looks like the best possibility, or something more central... but I like the idea of GA.

Of course you would.

Kentucky will work once I have a driver's license, I think.

Wait...Where do you live where you can get a license so early???

Ohio, I can get a permit at fifteen and a half, and a license at 16, unless they changed it.

But... You're fourteen right now, aren't you? In GA I can get a permit now, and a license in a year. I guess this would be later on... Maybe I can drive there too! ^^,

Yeah, I am.
Let's plan the convention for three years from now.

*laughs* That would work.

I would be almost 18. If I go to a certain college, I might actually be out of state by then...

I would say that sounds good to me, but by then I don't think I'll be able to come.
Unless it was the summer of 2013, then I might be able to do that.

lol
In three years I'll be almost 19... Depending on God's plan for me, I might be up in Illinois by then! (at Wheaton college, where I would like to go... but that's not exactly on topic. )

I'll plan my trip to the Creation Museum for then so I can hit it all at once!

Sounds like a plan! The Creation Museum is awesome.

Or maybe we hold the convention at the Creation Museum.

Thought of that, cool idea. We might be able to get group rates.

Yeah, we should.

When my family drove back to California to see family we planned on stopping at the Creation Museum. They were closed for construction

I would love to go there!

Yes! And that would help me convince my parents that this is worth driving for ten hours!

I need to go there sometime, myself.

Exactly, PotK!

Why do I have the feeling that we will never get anywhere with this? XD

Epic idea!

2013, I would be fourteen....

2013... I would be really old.

But, *sigh* as much as I would love to go to a convention and meet all these lovely HWers, it would be impossible for me. (even though I voted "Maybe So" ) Probably being the only Aussie on this site, I doubt you guys would hold it down under, and flying to the US is out of the question for me.

But I guess we'll get one big convention when we all get to heaven, so I'll see all you guys there!

And I've started every sentence with words you never should...

Don't worry, I'm doing my junior year of college abroad down under so we can hang out then.

Two questions... First is: Where is the creation museum? Second is: Jay, why are you using the word 'we'? I thought you were planning on not coming?

Near Cincinnati, Ohio.

I am not, but I am helping organize.

Makes sense. Hey, my mom has family near Cincinnati! That may be the deciding factor! My dad's brother and his new bride live in Michigan, this is working out great!! Three years from now I'll be 18; who knows where I'll be. Maybe college, maybe with my parents overseas, *shrugs* there's no way of knowing.

I thought it was in Kentucky.

It is right on the corner of three States.

You go to a hotel in one, drive through a second, and actually get there in the third. Tri-state area.

So, anybody live near the creation museum?

It's a few hours from my house.

Would we need to get someone to host, or could we just say: "Meet at the creation museum at 9 o'clock"?

You would need a group leader to represent us to the museum, if we are going to get group passes.

If we actually do it that late, though, I will probably be married, and able to travel. Thus, I might be able to make it.

* chuckles * If we wait three years a lot of us would probably be married and able to travel.

Speak for yourself, Airianna =) But I guess you're four years older than me =P I'm not going to be married at 19. I guess that's why you said a lot.

eruheran

Right. I left room for you, Eruheran.

There are a lot of us on the forum 19 and over. So a number of us might be. Although, if you look at the number of 14-17 year olds you guys way outrank us.

We would need someone to act as the liaison officer between HW and CM, though.

*teases* I was just teasing =P

*back to serious--nods* Right. And that would preferably be someone that at least lives fairly close and knows how to get there and all.

eruheran

In 3 years I probably won't be able to come. Oh well, eruheran can represent me.

In three years I'll be in Aussie most likely so we should do it in the summer time when I'm not in school.

Why not host an internet convention?

All the holy worlds can conspire to get on over several weekends.

Skilled Holy Worlders can offer "workshops" about various subjects in the Village Lore Room.

Holy Worlders with questions can submit them in the Forge Room.

Discussions on various issues can be hosted in the Magic, Theology, and General World Building rooms.

Holy Worlders with highly developed stories, races, cultures, or whatever, can draft really long cool posts and put them up where appropriate.

Casual discussion can take place in the Chatroom.

Etc. Etc. Etc.

Sound familiar?

HW is a convention. So what don't we just plan a few extra special weekends where we will make an effort to be super active on HW, post really detailed and well done stuff, and be extra helpful.

I think what everyone is talking about isn't necessarily to do what we usually do in real life, it's more just a fun thing to put faces to names and so on. At least, I think so. =)

eruheran

I make another person in the Midwest, and I voted yes I live in Wisconsin near Milwaukee.

Yeah, that is true, Neil. I would just love to meet some of ya'll!

XD Well I sure won't be married by then. Able to travel... probably. By then I'd be old enough to do whatever.

I'd be able to make it to St. Louis.
