eRepBelgium meet 2013 - the conclusion
tommot
Well, here it is.
The conclusion of the eRepBelgium Meet 2013!
These people where there:
* tommot(of-course)
* MCKitkat
* Jofroi
* MaartenW
As i said in the previous articles, this one(just like last year) took place in Brussels.
This is how it started
✔ I arrived in the station as first and set myself up for a long wait in the main hall(i was ± 2 hours to early).
✔ Eventuall(45 minutes after i arrived MCKitkat walked up to me asking if i was Tom Reniers(that's me). We had introduced ourselfs and then i went quite. I never was much of a talker in RL and apparently so was MCKitkat.
✔ I think it was 10 or 15 minutes when i saw Jofroi on the other side of the hall looking around in the corner where we where waiting the previous year. I walked up to him(with MCKitkat following) and we had ourselfs another introduction.
✔ Fairly quickly Jofroi started some conversations while we waited in the corner and eventually we moved to the center of the hall holding up the sign(look at banner in top of this article) and again we had a long waiting.
✔ I stated in the other articles that we would wait 30 minutes past the agrred meeting hour and so we did. Then we just made a tour around the station to see if we could find someone else, but we didn't and so we moved on towards the bowling alley.
✔ On the way over we bumped into MaarteW who was a bit later because of different arrangements. And we moved along to the bowling.
✔ With the help of Jofroi we quickly started to play a game...
The first game was pretty much a warm-up as the scores where low.
From the beginning MCKitkat was making the highest scores, altough i did came close for a moment. MaartenW was closing the ranks trying to find the best way to play.
MCKitkat choosing the right balls to stay ahead.
Trowing orange(balls)
😛
In the second game we made some higher scores yet MaartenW did end up as last one again.
This time Jofroi took the lead and kept it trough-out that game and even managed to get himself 3 strikes. MCKitkat got 2 strikes and i had 1 as well.
Looking for his winning ball
meh, just trow it
Hey! I want my ball back!
Do i need to say what this is about?
Here are the scores of the games:
After these games(which appeared to go faster then one would think) we went for a walk around the center of Brussels.
We didn't really looked for anything specific except that we did tried to find "Manekken pis"(no, not the player) somewhere around the Grand-Place. In the end we just couldn't find it so we just moved on to look for a good place to eat.
something interesting on the wall of some building somwhere in Brussels.
Just us near the Grand-Place.
That's where we had something to eat. Burgers(better the McDonalds) chili con carne & a meat assortiment where the choices we made.
Here i also gave the little present i made for this meet. We joked a little about some of it's content.
The cover of the booklet
A few other pages of the booklet
Next thing after we had a full belly(good food) we walked around again looking around for a better place to have a drink where we then talked some more about how things where in the past versions of eRepublik and how these changes effected the economical part of it.
We also talked a little bit about politics yet the focus always ended back to the economics of things.
Then after that we went back towards the station to drop of MCKitkat who had to return to get home.

This is us before we move on to the station(nice square). From left to right: tommot, Jofroi, MaartenW, MCKitkat.
After this we went out for a final drink before we moved on again and settled in a nice park near a church.
There we talked some more about economics(surprise) and about being a moderator/administrator.
At this time i decide to go home and we walked to the station again and said a quick goodbye.
What happened after that you have to ask Jofroi or MaartenW.

Typo's and grammar errors fixed.
Super photos tommot! Sorry for having no time to come
At least you let us know.
A few people didn't do that.
😉 How about you come here next year?
Or over here
I think we can all agree Colorado is the best place to go. Come in the winter, and I'll take you all up to the mountains. 😛
If only i could afford that... 🙂
Good to see Fofroi hahahaha, new player?
Thanks Tommot for the log
Yes and i also noticed that MCKiatkat was there. 😛
That's another typo i noticed myself. 😃
Nice 🙂
Wohooo, 182 points. I'm very lucky sometimes 😃
It's not luck, it's skill 😛
Who took the last picture ?
We just asked someone in the neighbourhood to take our picture. It turned out she was a professional photographer. 🙂
A lady ? Ohh... That can't be by inadvertance.
Did you take a picture of her ? Did Marteen invite her to drink ? Did McKitkat spend the night with her ? Did she become Jofroi's slave ?
We want to know everything !!
We didn't talked much with her so, well nothing to say 😛
Awesome x)
Really nice and fast article Tommot, really nice 😉
For what happened after your departure, we took the metro together and kept chatting a bit about good old times, evil admins, multi hunting and so on 😁.
So pretty much continuing the same conversation we had before i left. 🙂
Damn, next time I really have to be there.
And i hope i will be able to organize it a bit sooner, or at least provide the final date and/or place a little sooner.
nice to see those nice pictures. I see you had fun. Nice
Thanks Tommot
A shame that only so few people came. Thanks again tommot for the organization. You seems to have done a very good job again 😉
First time i was very shy and ... well, you where there.
This time i was more confident, yet i had some help from Jofroi in the bowling and when we where touring the city.
Next time, I will come to lead you to Manneken Piss!! (not the Croatian guy, the Brussels symbol)
I looked it up on a map, it turned out we didn't walk far enough(just one corner away. 😃
It would be very nice to see you there as well. 😉
I invite you all to Macedonia next time. 😉
MaartenW is still tall as fuck
I don't think that will ever change. 😛
In order of length(going up): MCKitkat, tommot(me), Jofroi, MaartenW.
It seems that only people with glasses were there 😉
glasses were a requirement this time, you didn't got the memo 😉 😁
vote; you are great guys.
Hey!! Nice, well done guys! It is nice to see how eR friendship goes to RL as well!
Did you notice that tommot avatar = tommot RL? 😃
Perhaps next time i'll be there 😛
V + S
