EPTI still remember last years Gamescom 2010 meet up at the Mexican restaurant which was absolutely amazing and a lot of fun for the community as well as for the gamers and organizers/Blizzard members who were attending.
Now its not long until Gamescom 2011 and there's still a thread missing. As I have no information on who is going to come and if there's any interest in doing a meetup again, lets first gather information. Date for gamescom (public opening) is 18th of August - 21th.
Collective Information about the MeetUp
+ Show Spoiler +
When: Friday 19th August 2011 (time is not yet fixed!)
Where: Café Especial (http://www.cafe-especial.com/) (location we have in mind, 90% fix)
Notes: BRING YOUR OWN CASH - AND BRING ENOUGH OF IT.
Payment: You pay what you order immediately after you got it, to not have missing money later on.
Reservation: Its for 100 persons, so if we are more.. we will have to split up a bit, I don't know how it would work, but we will find a solution.
Plan:
We will meet on the big stairs of the south entrance at 08:00PM / 08:15PM and walk over to the restaurant. Please be on time since the reservation is for 08:30PM - 09:00PM. Meet me there or come to the restaurant yourself at that time.
Bring money as you will have to pay everything immediately after you ordered it. Enjoy the night. Reservation is booked for 100 and I don't have a "check-list" so whoever comes first.. gets a seat. I don't think there will be 100 people sitting and eating all the time as a lot will be standing outside with drinks and smoke like last year. See you there.
Address of the restaurant:
Neuhöfferstraße 32
50679 Köln

BeWat3r and I talked quiet a bit and we were thinking about doing it at the same place where we did it last year. At the mexican restaurant Café Especial (http://www.cafe-especial.com/) which is not more than 10 minutes walking distance from the venue. Also we think it would be the best to do it on friday, since the ESL players party is saturday.
Also its probably the best to do it in the beginning of the evening since as for now the restaurant closes at 1AM. So I'm thinking 7:30PM meetup and head over to the restaurant at 8 or 8:30PM and then have a good time. The food is good and the drinks are as well - happy hour there is from 10:30PM to 11:30PM and I think cocktails etc are nearly half the price then.
Will keep you updated.
