I have Thursday off. I'd be down for some grub.

jocose · Jun 2009

I might be able to make it, you have a specific place/time in mind?

Rens · Jun 2009

bleh, i need to get my ass over there some time

Thegodzero · Jun 2009

Oh sure while I'm in the uk!! If only it was sat or Sunday, I get back Friday(my 32hr day).

oXYnary · Jun 2009

Im down.

seforin · Jun 2009

I think the weekend mid day would be easier for everyone , gives people time to relax from the week, can book a restaurant for the day time and it wont get crazy packed (Since its like a mid day sat/sunday) And no one has to worry about work etc.

Joshua Stubbles · Jun 2009

Yeah, weekend might be better, if possible. I'm down with sushi though.

oXYnary · Jun 2009

Cant do mid day weekends unless it sunday.

OBlastradiusO · Jun 2009

Cool. Any plans ever for a Chicago meetup?

praetus · Jun 2009

Yeah, I work weekends. ;_; Thursday and Friday are my days off lately.

Ferg · Jun 2009

I can do a midweek evening, gonna be gone this weekend tho

mLichy · Jun 2009

So either way, it's half and half it seems, that can go weekday or weekend. I prefer weekday, but we will see what happens.

Loren Broach · Jun 2009

Hows about Friday then?

And if anyone has any suggestions of good Sushi places, let me know. I don't know of any in particular.

mLichy · Jun 2009

Only place I know of is the one by work. I think Frozan said something of one in Seattle, but idk about going there again on a Friday... : \

Ferg · Jun 2009

I actually wont be able to make it no matter when it is... gonna be crazy busy for the next couple weeks. Count me in on the next one though.

I've been to this one in Fremont and it was great. The only problem with Fremont on a Friday is parking pending on what time you go. It's about 4 blocks maybe from Brouwers if you guys remember that place.

There is also one in Bellevue it looks like. Anyone know of any info or parking in that area?

Mark Dygert · Jun 2009

I've been to the Blue C Sushi in Lynnwood it was really good. The one in Bellevue is right next to the mall tons of free parking. There are also a bunch of other restaurants all around within walking distance. Cheesecake factory, Red Robbin, PF CHangs, Ruth's Chris and half a dozen mom & pop places scattered around that are great too.

The direct traffic from the freeway/mall can be kind of nuts on a friday night but I can post up some directions that should get you in the back way around that bottle neck.

It's my daughters birthday today but on friday we're taking her to the zoo/aquarium and the party is on Sat so you guys have fun I'll catch ya next-time-round.

Loren Broach · Jun 2009

Well, I vote we hold out another week in hopes that more polycounters can go. Seems this week isn't good for a lot of people.

How about we aim for Friday the 19th? If we make reservations ahead of time I don't think we have to worry about the crowds.

mLichy · Jun 2009

Yeah, next weeks fine with me.

oXYnary · Jun 2009

Since we did eastside last time, tis time for a westside meetup. ;')

DInusty · Jun 2009

count me in.

seforin · Jun 2009

yea next friday sounds easier........I wish we could push it back just 1 more week behind that.....my buddy/cousin from FL is moving to WA and he is flying up on the 25th.....I would have liked him to meet some Polycounters as some people here. (hes in the games field as well)

mLichy · Jun 2009

KK, next week then, sounds good.

IronHawk · Jun 2009

word

Mark Dygert · Jun 2009

Roger that Commander.

Cryocat · Jun 2009

Oooh! Count this one in.

adam · Jun 2009

Someone put the address of where we're going and I'll see about getting there. Just don't make fun of me if I show up in a minivan with Winne the Shit floor mats.

oXYnary · Jun 2009

Can we do it now to get it out of our system? Humms

seforin · Jun 2009

wait so are we doign blue C sushi in bellevue then?

if so what time? I can go early friday and hold the fort down (im off that day)

Loren Broach · Jun 2009

Sure! blue C sushi, LETS DO IT.

oXYnary · Jun 2009

Just to be clear though, this is NEXT Friday. Not today correct?

And what is with the East side? I thought we were going to switch back and forth for each meeting?

diminished_Self · Jun 2009

i need to remind myself to stay out of the 'east VS west' side stuff on these boards. but it would be nice if everyonce in a while we could actually meet up in seattle. espescially since the thread title says SEATTLE polycount meetup #4, not BELLEVUE polycount meetup #4.

jocose · Jun 2009

eastside>westside

*runs and hides*

praetus · Jun 2009

While Fremont is awesome and closer to me than Bellevue it's a pain in the ass to park there. Bellevue location I think is easier to get to regardless.

oXYnary · Jun 2009

Parking... Pswah....

Ride a bus. * That way, when you get wasted, you don't have to worry about the drive home...

*Yea, I know, the buses east after 10:45PM are far and few between. (So are the opposite however)

seforin · Jun 2009

Polycount westside story

(Wait wouldnt I be the only puerto rican in the entire group then?) me versus all of the polycounters?

Joshua Stubbles · Jun 2009

Wtf the canadian is coming!? OMGZ

Bellevue works for me. Sushi works for me. Lets get this shiz locked down.

Thegodzero · Jun 2009

wait so this hasn't happened yet? I can come then, in theory...

Joshua Stubbles · Jun 2009

Yeah TGZ, it got pushed back 1 more week, so more people could make it. Seems like the 19th is fish night.

SAPPORO, BITCH!

stoofoo · Jun 2009

I'd be down for a meetup again. Blue C, though? Huge veto card! Wah wahhhhhh. There's a lot of awesome sushi in Seattle proper. I'm worried that this will end in another east vs. west nonsense thread. Hell, there are even some great places in Bellevue if we are sticking to the east side. I love sushi is delicious, so is sushi in joy?

praetus · Jun 2009

As it happens, I have to work this Friday so I won't be able to make it this time. Maybe next time....

adam · Jun 2009

ADDRESS AND/OR GOOGLEMAP PLEASE!

Joshua Stubbles · Jun 2009

Seems like the place is undecided now? (thanks STOOFOO :P). Lets get this shiz locked down so the canuck can plan his trip!

DInusty · Jun 2009

please please we need to get adam up on this.

Mark Dygert · Jun 2009

Come on sushi off a conveyor belt how fresh is that! It's like Apples version of this:

Yea, she's a PC.
Right down to the pretentious atmosphere and overpriced, undersized goods! I'm also not sure they're set up to handle a large group?

I'm in for any type of place anywhere, east or west it doesn't matter. Preferably some place that serves beer and I'm not all asses and elbows with everyone else. You're all great guys but come on that's like 10th date friendly.

Well if it ends up in Bellevue, you've already been there once. Blue C is about 1-2 blocks from Valve. So are all of the other places I listed off before.

A Valve, B Blue C. The large structure to the left of Blue C is a 6 story parking garage, free parking, I'm positive that busses run pretty late, theres a major hub a few blocks away from the square. All around Bell Square is a mother F ton of places to eat within walking distance. But I'm happy going anywhere.

Thegodzero · Jun 2009

Free parking/ lots of open spots readily available is very important for meet ups.

Bell square mall sounds like a great place to do a meet up as its got lots of places to eat, and lots of FREE parking. But what do i care i don't drive, id need a ride either way.

mLichy · Jun 2009

Yeah, Seattle is horrible for parking. Bellevue has very nice parking as TGZ said. Also, like he said, alot of places to eat. Also it's kind of a halfway point for guys in Seattle or Bothell/Kirkland.

seforin · Jun 2009

fair enough, I wish we could push this back 1 more week though, but its gonna be blue c sushi then?

if so what time? 7ish?

oXYnary · Jun 2009

Going across the lake is not what I would consider "halfway".

Anyhow, fine, this time, but next time we meet after this, whenever that might be. Can we please make it Westside? Also, some areas of Seattle aren't that bad. Say like Georgetown which has plenty of small restaurants, and has a thriving artist community (so we could go look at peoples art and talk shit about it behind their back). Also, Fantagraphic books is there as well. Which is always a treat to go in their store front.

PS. I assume this branch of the Franchise?
