    Hello everyone, It's that time of year again. Myself and @hahakumquat The last few gatherings have had extremely small turnouts. Let's do our best raise the attendance to standards we had in 2009-2010. Alright guys let's make it happen.

    If I end up going to summer school, won't be able to make any of those dates. Otherwise I'm good on weekends. Would prefer Brea or UCI ;D

    I like how you remember I'm from SoCal even though I've been inactive for the past 2-ish years. Anyways, I like the idea of having it at UCI, because I can get to there from Riverside, where I will be over the summer. I remember seeing the vids of the past gatherings, but remember that much of the socal community has quit/become inactive/hates the new generation of penspinners/are busy/etc so yea I'm not sure if I will go as I don't really know anyone relatively active in the community anymore. Edit: I can also make Little Tokyo because it's accessible by Metrolink/buses

    Even though you've been inactive for awhile, I still think it'd be cool if you could go. Also, you live in Riverside? Do you go to UCR?

  12. mintypaladin
    Date: Sun, May 18 2014 17:04:30

    Yea I'm at UCR, but without a car atm.

    Hmmm, it's a fat chance that I can go if it's going to be at Irvine. I'll see what I can do. :/

    IDK about all the other socal guys but I still spin and watch collabs just as much as always, I just don't post very much. I can probably go. I'd like to see @pholord (how could you not tag him).

    I should be able to come this year...the 5th and 12th won't work for me, but the 19th or 26th should be fine. Don't really care where...but I think UCI is closer to me since I'm coming from San Diego.

    I wouldn't mind having the gathering at UCI, but if Zkhan can drive me from rside I don't really care too much

    I'm down. Someone facebook me.

  32. Zkhan
    Date: Sun, Jun 8 2014 05:57:31

    I'd prefer that the gathering be held at either Brea or Little Tokyo. Brea is the default of course. Thoughts?

  33. hoiboy
    Date: Sun, Jun 8 2014 18:24:54

    Isn't Brea the default? Someone give me a ride.

    Wish I could :P I don't know. I thought maybe a change in venue would make the gathering a bit more interesting. Brea Mall and LA are the most feasible locations I can make it to.

    Alright so do we agree that the gathering is to be held [B]July 19th at Brea Mall[/B]? I don't see any objections so make them now if you have any! @hahakumquat

    Date: Fri, Jun 27 2014 17:46:44

  38. Nachoaddict
    Date: Mon, Jun 30 2014 06:30:43

    I'll see if I can make it. I might be coaching tennis or something that day but don't change the date because of me if it works for everyone else!

  39. mintypaladin
    Date: Mon, Jun 30 2014 16:43:49

    again, I'm only going if Zkhan or someone else from Riverside can drive me.

    Lol this gathering is not happening if Zkhan doesn't go. He is like the glue that binds the recent Socal gatherings together

    It's unfortunate that he's unable to attend....but that's not stopping me from going. Gathering in 5 days! ^_^

    Haven't picked up a modded pen, or even consciously tried to improve my spinning since... uhh.. I was probably in 10th grade (2006), although the built habit from spinning so much before that hasn't left me, ever. Maybe I'll drop by to see how the game has evolved since then.

    @Shmugs and his mother for making a hard journey just to attend the gathering for a few short hours. We love seeing new attendees. UPSB and the SoCal spinners welcome you. Also, a big shot out to tenku069. It's rare to see an oldie emerge back into activity after a long period of time. You're awesome man.
