I might be in town... Plan on comin around the 1st for negril... might stay a extra week or two... wat about sat aug 16th??

Shini
07-09-2008, 03:51 PM
So we have a vote for 16th of Aug.
Anyone second?
Oppose?

And which shall it be?
Dinner or Trading?

Be aware.. Trading usually has a Dinner with it... but Dinner does not involve Trading.

You know... i just may be able to make a trading day/dinner at long last... I have no birthdays or events planned for that saturday... (so far) so i second saturday august 16 *keys it into phone

Dont worry skill i working the angles. I gonna talk to ma bredrin in mona.. it unlikely but I'll see what can happen. Then I talk to the owner of the old venue.

TheSixth
07-11-2008, 04:45 PM
So it sounds like the 16th... Wicked cant wait... Where was the trading day last time?

death_knight
07-11-2008, 11:44 PM

wth man.. get your facts right from day one u crazy bastard..

henderson
07-13-2008, 11:12 PM
wouldn't it still be hard for him even if he was to come back one day before the event? put it to the other Saturday if that date is good for everybody else

TheSixth
07-14-2008, 06:46 AM
So ur sayin the 23rd? Yeah ill be long gone by then... We cant fit this in sometime between Aug 4th-16th ?

Blindz
07-14-2008, 02:59 PM
I wonder if we cud pull off another sushi thing 4 the dinner, :eusa_thin
as me sey tho, netime after the 15th of aug is A-OK with me

Shini
07-14-2008, 04:19 PM
Not to sound harsh... but since TheSixth has never, and probably will never get the chance to attend one... since he comes to JA at random times it seems... and this time actually coinsides with him being down here... and malloc lives here, and attended quite a few... and plus he can always link up with one of the guys to get anime... if we do Trading day...
I say we just do it on the 16th.

Opinions?

Malloc-X
07-15-2008, 09:10 AM
i agree with shini, if we can find a venue keep it so that the sixth can attend, i will just give DK some blank dvds or a portable HD for him to burn/copy stuff for me.

death_knight
07-15-2008, 10:10 AM
fine.. Still working on teh venue mang.. will report as soon as i do.

End of August?

Shini
07-30-2008, 09:10 AM
So what time you thinking of TheSixth?
And is no one else coming?

BTW, we still planning the TRADING DAY/SYNERGY DINNER for Aug... Which one we doing and which date?

07-30-2008, 09:38 AM
i wont be in the island till after the 17th of august, so anythin after that im ok with

Shini
08-01-2008, 08:35 PM
Ok people, we are aiming for the end of August for Trading day... but we cannot and will not give an exact date until a venue is secured.

So if youre interested in coming, please watch this thread for further updates.

henderson
08-03-2008, 08:59 AM
can i still get all of avatar?

Shini
08-03-2008, 12:50 PM
If someone who attends has all of them.

I think Book 1 and 2 were given out in a past Trading Day... I dunno if all of Book 3 has been released on the internet.. the last couple epis i think werent being released or something like that.

This is why people should try to attend as much as possible... so that we not constantly going over old material, when we need to get new stuff distributed.

This isnt against you Hendy... is just for all the people that going to be requesting older stuff, and holding up the day with them.

henderson
08-03-2008, 09:19 PM
i prolly wouldn't have wanted Avatar at that time. its just since recently i started to watch it.

Shini
08-09-2008, 12:17 AM
Any word about the venue for this and the date?!?!

death_knight
08-09-2008, 09:45 PM
sadly non yet :(

Shini
08-10-2008, 12:22 PM
Ok, try for the business venue then.
Either Aug 23rd or Aug 30.
Try for both in case Aug 30 doesnt work out.

So people.. be ready if we tell you that AniSyn Trading day is gonna be Aug 23rd, ok?
As well as 30th!!!

But yall shoulda been ready since last month... only the date needed to be confirmed. >=P

henderson
08-10-2008, 08:21 PM
whats the business venue?

Shini
08-10-2008, 08:32 PM
Um... I dont remember the name... is the one Skillachi kept talking about before.. that game place.

henderson
08-10-2008, 08:42 PM
oh Area 51

Malloc-X
08-11-2008, 07:10 AM
area 51 not gonna be cheap plus i think its paid parking in that plaza area

Shini
08-11-2008, 09:18 AM
Im sure if they couldnt work out a deal with the place that DK and Skillachi wouldnt consider the place.

Infidel
08-11-2008, 12:36 PM
Area 51 had been suggested a while back. I am involved with the place so a discount can be worked out and I can try to get you guys a section of the arcade, a couple screens and maybe even internet access.

There is NO PAID PARKING in the plaza as long as you bought something or was a customer of a store in in the plaza...just to ensure everyone knows that.

the last weekend of august might be bad for me but the weekend of the 22nd - 24th is fine and a Sunday is the best day if you guys want more space, a better experience and no parking problems

Shini
08-11-2008, 12:49 PM
Oh is you, not skillachi.

Sorry Infidel.

Well I think the satday is a better day.. rather than the sunday.
Maybe you can find out if they would close the place on satday 23rd for our event... ask them from now so them cant say we never give early warning... dunno bout the last satday of aug since we need you for the links to the place.
If not, I dunno what we gonna do then.

Cause I cant do any sundays.

Infidel
08-11-2008, 12:53 PM
Saturday is one of the biggest (if not the biggest) days for a business of this type and closing for that day is not a option sorry -_- even if we wanted we have regular customers and activities we have to take into consideration.

But truthfully in general the plaza on a whole gets crazy on a Saturday as thats when most people do their shopping, parking will be impossible and the arcade will be packed and crazy with gamers.

So now when I think about it a Sunday is the only option...sorry -_-

Shini
08-11-2008, 01:04 PM
Well anyone with better ideas?

Malloc-X
08-11-2008, 08:49 PM
@shini y cant u make it on a sunday? i dont think area 51 is open on sundays so we could have the place for ourselves. on a saturday there is gonna be a lot of high school kidz there makin a lot of noise.

Shini
08-12-2008, 09:08 AM
I require 10 hours of sleep to survive work the next day.

And for Trading day to be a success... we usually run at least into midnight... the next morning sometimes.

Malloc-X
08-12-2008, 04:35 PM
yeah work is very tiring especially if u get caught in the traffic goin home. maybe if we organize very very very well, we could start at 10am and finish at 8:30pm. we all post the animes we have, then every makes a list of what they want, the we queury the list and burn all who wants anime A first and so on. i know we have tried this b4 but we can try it again and be more strict about it. the list should be given to the people in charge of the burnin a day b4 trading so they can organize themselves. if we could get one of those big dvd burners that burn like 5 dvds at once that would be nice.

Shini
08-12-2008, 04:43 PM
Well Im not saying we cant do sunday.
I just know I wouldnt be staying long sunday... and if we wanted to do an all-nighter, then it couldnt be on sunday.

But as you say, if we coulda organize a lot better so burning coulda be done without a hitch... it might can be done on sunday.

But itd have to be early.. as you said, 10.. but people would have to reach ON TIME.
And not come in like 2pm and expect them crap to get burnt right away... and done by 8pm.

08-13-2008, 07:12 AM
Got response from greed. It definitely wont be happening at his place. So thats our. There's one option I haven't explored. I"m gonna ask today as i would prefer a saturday as well. (its just more convenient). Will see how that works out and post my findings this afternoon.

death_knight
08-13-2008, 11:44 AM
okay spoke with killasirrom it seems its a possiblity. just 1 more check before i send out the mass email to kick this thing into action. Will find out that final detail by tonight. This detail will determine weather we gonna be there all day into the next morning or it'll be ending by 9.

There will be a small donation required. help with the lightbill kinda thing. there' be pc's laptops xbox tv burning all day into the morning if anything. So its understandable i hope. a small portion of the donation may go to paying the server bill :D

I'm giving you the ability to set a donation amount. I'm thinkign 500 or there about. feedback quickly please. thanks.

Malloc-X
08-13-2008, 11:52 AM
$500 is fare. i will b there

death_knight
08-13-2008, 11:58 AM
ok great. like i said on confirmation of 1 small detail. I'll send a mass email. by tonight stating the end time. etc..

Shini
08-13-2008, 01:43 PM
So um, why we paying a fee now and Greed never asked for a fee.. and him name Greed?
Or Blindz too.

So do we owe them money for lightbill then?

If we paying for one, we might as well try pay the others for past use of them house and electricity too... and we were at Greed like 3 times.

Cause it not fair to them that we helping this one... and we never help them... even if they never asked for it or not.

I am against it.
Cause is not like any of them richer or poorer than the other.
So if we have to pay him... we should try find a way to give back money to the other two.

:confused:. ok listen. They didn't ask for a contribution. hence it never happened. I'm really trying to have this thing ready for the 30th of august. Area51 is basically a last resort in my opinion. We'ld have to do a payment setup there as well.

1. lightbill now isn't like it was since the last trading day You've seen the jps publications in all the media saying they aren't subsidicing the rising price of oil so its passed directly on to the customers.. so its really expensive now.

2. If the venue owner asks for a contribution and we can honour it I dont see the problem If we cant then we we dont and we cancel the event (we would vote on that) or find another viable venue.

Thats my opinion on the matter. I understand that your trying to be just by saying if one person gets a contribution to his utility usage that will be highly used for the day everybody should get the same. but the truth is nobody asked. I didn't come up with the idea of the donation it was requested and again in my opinion is honestly fair.. in our own dialect / jargon "times hard now" .

Shini
08-13-2008, 03:25 PM
So when have times not been hard?

Then I propose that we only pay an amount based on his average light bill.... because if 10 people come and pay $500.. thats $5000.. which is like more than half of some people lightbill for the month... and I no plan to pay for half him bill when is only a day i going be there... I would like to know how much his light bill is on a regular.. so that we can base a more accurate amount to give.
Dont need a specific amount... just to the nearest thousand... and then we can figure out how much each pay based on how many people going to come.

If you think that too faas, Im sorry, but as you say "times hard now".

henderson
08-13-2008, 04:30 PM
i can understand what shini is saying. i can see that a whole lot needs to be ironed out for this to get underway.

Shini
08-13-2008, 04:38 PM
Oh, let me make a correction to my statement... PM me about the amount, and we can figure out how much each person should pay.... but we would need to know how many people will be coming.... or we can make them pay at the end of the day.... or before them leave.
And if someone ends up paying more than others.. say them leave early before the majority arrives... then save the money for next time.
Or give it back to them if you can.

But yea, lots of little details need to be ironed out... cause i dont want me or anyone else to feel like they paid too much for anything.... and I dont want us to shortchanged our host as well.

death_knight
08-13-2008, 05:02 PM
ok. look here. the other day we had a trading day at greed we rented a tv which cost us 5k. killasirroms tv which we'll be using is a 32inch plasma that 5k + the fact that we gonna be using his resources for the day. I honestly dont think its not a justified situation.

and like i said if we go to area51 we would each have to pay $500 as well maybe more who knows why wasn't this an issue before now? absolutely no one questioned area51's 500... I'm just saying.

lastly if you have another viable venue you are all free to suggest.

re the value of the bill.. I'll ask if i can share the information. will not send anyone's personal information without their permission

Shini
08-13-2008, 06:00 PM
Because its a business place... OBVIOUSLY we would be expected to pay if we couldnt get it free.
We never paid to use the other people dem "resources", so why you think we expect to pay now??
And I never said share him bill on the forum.. keep it to yourself if you must and you decide how much to pay.
And we paid to rent a tv that wasnt Greed's own for our use... are you saying we renting a tv to put in Killasirrom's house??? Or is it his own?
If its his own, why we paying for that too???
What is your point about the tv???

death_knight
08-15-2008, 10:57 AM
the tv was just a reference i just saying alot things available for usage at the venue.. truth be told if anybody and i mean anybody doesn't not believe he should contribute then dont come.

if i own a card board box and it cost me money to maintain the cardboard box and someone wants to use it and i decide its gonna be costly for them to use it and i'm gonna need some contributions to go towards the maintenance of the box after the people use it. Its my right to do so.

Thats the condition under which killasirrom made his house available. Like i said if there's a problem with the contribution. Do not come. i had said 500 or there about it wasn't a hard and fast figure.

If theres another venue that you or any other member can acquire for free as thats what everybody rly wants. Then mention it. . the date has been shifted to the 23rd of august which is 1 week time. if its happenign at killasirroms I want to send my emails by tonight notifying the members of the event. So speak up now. as to if its happening or its cancelled.

KillaSirrom
08-15-2008, 11:06 AM
ahhh boy can alway count on shini for this shit... im sure if it were at anyone elses house this would not be a problem... dude like dk said if u have a problem dont come or find another venue

as for my light bill... lol... trust me u dont want to go there

Shini
08-15-2008, 11:21 AM
No, you not that special... ANYONE else who did say them will lend us them venue but at a cost, i would question the same ****ing thing and have the same ****ing problem with it as i do now.
Why should we start pay for someone light bill when the others have not asked for it.

But ok, as the two of you say... if I no feel like I should contribute, dont come.

Im taking myself out of this event then.

Why should we start pay for someone light bill when the others have not asked for it.



the others chose not to ask for money, that was their choice. the current person is askin. u should not use the others to compare. for eg. a fren carries u to work every mornin and doesnt ask u for gas money, one day that fren is sick and another fren carries u to work, this new fren asks u for gas money,

are u not gonna pay the new fren because the old fren never used to ask u for money??

Blindz
08-15-2008, 12:34 PM
I won't b able to make it on the 23rd, going to a company outing. as for the contribution, if the man ask 4 contribution, as long as we want to use him place, make a contribution, 500 a person. depending on the amt of person who attend I say 5k or more depending on the amnt of persons who attend, can go 2wards the persons house usage and the rest can go 2wards food and or the site itself

just my 2cents

Shini
08-15-2008, 12:46 PM
No malloc, that is different, thats an every day thing... this is a one day thing.

But i not going, so I dont care what you guys gonna pay for it.

Exactly... sir. if alot of people turn up food can even buy out of it for everybody to eat. I see your thinking. Eitherway. if thats that. I'll be sending the mass email tonight..

Shini
08-15-2008, 01:02 PM
Dont bring food into this, because we have always told people to bring money for food... so that part is not new.

That make a lot of sense, why? because of how light bills are these days... I don't see nothing wrong with contributing to the light bill even though I am not coming there to do much trading..

suggesting...: we can just thief light for the event... Ghetto rule!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
