sweet, we have a decent amount of people making it out!

Anyone from Germany able to set up some preliminary plans for a place to meetup?

yay

I live in Cologne so I could plan some stuff or make reservations. I suppose people would want to go for food and drinks on friday and saturday? Maybe even sunday? Tell me what you guys want.
Edit: I actually know a really good mexican restaurant thats not far away fromt the exhibition area. It's very popular though. So we would need to book pretty soon, especially when we are going to have a big group.

Just a little heads up if you want to do a TL meetup you gotta arrange stuff for it. If you don't pre-book stuff you will be walking around with 100 people not being able to get in anywhere.

i doubt we will be 100 ppl.. there are 15 signed up so far... i dont think the group will be bigger than 20 ppl, if at all.
still some kind of arrangement would be good of course

We're 10 days out most people can't plan that far ahead. Yes you will end up with a group of 50 people if you want to. It was 100 people last time at WCG in germany, TL is about 6 times bigger than we were then.

How many people signed up in advance for the meetup last time? I guess its going to change as soon as we have some more concrete plans.
I just called the mexican place and they can take up to 200 people. They also have a seperate room for around 20 people. If the group stays that small we can book that one. But I guess even if suddenly 100 people show their interest I could make an reservation for 100 people.

here is the google entry of the restaurant: http://maps.google.de/maps?q=deutz&oe=utf-8&rls=org.mozilla:de:official&client=firefox-a&um=1&ie=UTF-8&sa=N&hl=de&tab=wl

i have been there before and always the food was very good. they have happy hour from 17:30 to 18:30 and 22:30 to 23:30. its in about 15-20min walking distance to the exhibition center.

i think we should set for a date. saturday is probably the best day for most of us.
nazgul do you know anything about the match schedule yet? because that might be a factor too. but i suppose the finals are going to be played on sunday.

edit: the place is actually right next to the youth hostel which is supposed to be very good. so for people wondering where to sleep: http://www.jugendherberge.de/jh/rheinland/koeln-deutz/index.shtml.en?m
