Nope! And besides, no one knows anyone very well yet. But we're all very nice people. =)

I did too! I think the high server demands on the Nano site may be the cause, not the internet as a whole, but either way, yeah...not helpful! I'm going to look into it with Nano HQ for future emails.

Don't worry about this meetup changing. It will definitely be at Whole Lot-A Gelata, because that's the biggest location we've got. Though a habit of double-checking is probably not a bad one to get into. =)

Excuse me for creeping lol but is there a need for power bars? If there is, I have on I can bring - it's not huge, six plugs, but if there's a need for them I don't mind bringing it.

I'll be there! I can bring a power bar as well, although I'll probably be sticking with my notebook for now.

See you then..

If I can manage to wake up on time, I'll be there. (Also if I'm feeling okay. Had to come home from work today because I passed out in the washroom. Swine flu? Please no.)

It sounds like we have a few power bar volunteers, but redundancy is never a bad thing. There are only two outlets upstairs at WLG, so we definitely want at least one besides mine, and more could be helpful. If it's not a pain for you to bring one, please do! As long as you're not going to be annoyed if we don't end up needing it! =)

I might appear for a bit, depending on what time i actually get up and moving. (on weekends I dont have to be up early to work, my partner and I are notoriously bad for sleeping until eleven, then lingering over breakfast, so I don't always get moving before noon.)

hi, I should be coming to this one, but like most of you, I am not usually an early riser (though getting a puppy is sort of retraining me). so I may be a tad late.

I'm hopefully going to make it, not used to getting up early lol. If I do make it, i'll be going alone. If anyone needs a drive let me know, i'll be coming from strasburg/ottawa, going down westmount.

Will likely come to this one. I lost the ability to sleep in years ago so I'm usually up early on Saturdays anyways.

Yeah, it does that for some reason whenever you use the Quote option. You just have to delete the one that appears in the box.

See you tomorrow!

Have power bar, will travel.

My outline isn't quite done yet, but enough so that I have more scenes I know about so I can write some more of them before it is. And since the outline will be complete before weekend's end (yay!). Or at least that's what I tell myself so that I can justify coming to the WriteIn.

See everyone who is relatively healthy and relatively conscious tomorrow.

Does anyone know when WLG opens in the morning? The website doesn't say and I tried calling the number, hoping they'd have an answering machine, but they don't, lol. I even attempted StreetView on GoogleMaps! I tried zooming all the way into the door, to read the Hours of Operation... it didn't work.
