Meeting on the Gold Coast
ronnyJnrJnr
What happens when a bunch of degenerate nerds drawn together by a game decide to go out and meet up for a few drinks?
Diablo101's drinks
This very scenario happened twice over the last week for a certain bunch of eReppers meeting up on the Gold Coast. Not all of us came from the GC, but nonetheless those of us who are locals, didn't hold anything against those who came from "Mexicoland". The first weeks meet was interesting to say the least. eAustralia is only a small community but 7 brave individuals

ventured out one sunny Sunday afternoon to a local gambling/drinking establishment known as Jupiters Casino. We all had only limited knowledge of who anyone was, let alone what each other looked like, but that's never stopped anyone before. Armed with an image of a mugshot of one person only,
I ventured into the bar that we were meeting in and proceeded to sit for an hour looking at several people wondering if maybe one of them was a fellow eRepper. After finally recognizing one of the players , I realized that there were 2 other eReppers sitting right under my nose and I didnt even know it.
After a few minutes we had all gathered at a table and began to have a few drinks and talked a little about the fantastic game that is...... football. Then we talked about eRep..... About an hour after of sitting there a band started to play so we migrated to another bar in the casino where we could hear ourselves think. Becoming increasingly poorer each drink, we agreed that a change of venue was in order so travelled a few minutes down the road to the Mermaid Beach pool hall.
This is where the fun and games actually began. Instead of being stuck at a table we were all able to move freely around and play some pool talking to everyone in the group as we saw fit. Both meetings went the same way....

So there you have it kids. Both weekends wrapped up in an article with a few pictures to boot. We will try to make these things a bit of a regular occurrence, so any Brisbanites, Gold Coasters, or anyone else on the coast for a holiday feel free to get in contact with henry, myself or any one of the other degenerates pictured in this article for a great night/ afternoon out, and a joining of our community

Great article.
The pictures of Savonrepus are amazing. Especially the one where he is sitting on the couch alone, pondering plans for his global domination. He is clearly in deep thought.
He is a god and has appeared to us in human form.
nice
looks like a fun meet!
also....get a better camera/phone! : P
Thanks for using a camera from 1962.
😁^ haters gonna hate.
Savonrepus seems like a nice guy, but Henry looks as creepy as he is in the game. : D
^

I should conduct a ACT meet up.

😁 I would say callum is talking about the Melbourne meetup
The actuarial tables suggest I will be dead by the time Cal actually organises the Melbourne meet up. According to historical information, eAus was barely made as a country in-game by the admins when Cal first suggested it LOL!
nice 🙂
A melbourne meetup would be cool, i'd attend that 🙂
