Sat March 16 at 3:00 PM, Jason George
100 Front St E, Toronto, ON M5A 1E1, Canada (Map & Directions)
Have reserved a spot at the Jason George at 3:00 (in the back room that's on the right hand side just after you walk past the bar). Come one, come all if you can make it! Have chatted with a few folks and there a few of us who expect to be there well into the evening. Will update gathering status here throughout the afternoon/evening for those who might be able to make it later.

I will actually be in Toronto that weekend, although I don’t know if I’ll be able to get away early enough from the family event I’ll be attending. I’ll be following this in the hope of being able to see some of you.

I could likely make it.

Bummer. I am out of town that weekend.

I am relatively certain that I am free that evening! Hooray! (I assume the Jason George won't be doing anything crazy for the day/Saturday night before St. Patrick's Day, but I guess if we have a reservation it doesn't really matter.)

Oh, right! St. Patrick's Day. For some reason I had it in my head that it was earlier.

How do people feel about the Saturday after, instead (March 23)?
posted by mandolin conspiracy at 2:05 PM on February 17, 2019


I can do either, but would probably prefer the 23rd - St. Patrick's Day weekend might not be very chill at the pub =)

I had forgotten about St Patrick's Day. We can't make the 23rd.

The 16th is fine.

We could probably do the 16th.

16th is sounding perfectly cromulent for most folks, so let's go with that.

Oh man, this is literally the week I move there. Too much chaos on my end to be able to make it this time around, but Fizz and I hope to make it to the next one! We are thinking about hosting a Niagara Falls (ON) IRL sometime, too, if there's any interest for those closer to Niagara and Buffalo.

Sorry, should have mentioned earlier - I've booked the high top tables over in the second room by the dart board. Will put up a little sign on the table with some cryptic message about the cabal or strangers from the internet. Looking forward to it!

Alas, a family matter has popped up and I won't be able to attend this Saturday.

I'm volunteering at Breakout Con over mid-day but may be able to stop by in the late afternoon/evening if I'm not comatose. It helps that the Jason George is just a couple blocks out of the way home.

We have arrived. It’s not too busy here!

Turn right at the bar and head toward the back wall with the high top tables.
posted by mandolin conspiracy at 12:00 PM on March 16, 2019


There are 9 of us here at the moment. It’s nice and quiet here, actually!
posted by mandolin conspiracy at 2:03 PM on March 16, 2019


It was fun hanging out today! Looking forward to the next one, and to whatever’s it is that’s in store for July that I agreed to be a part of.

FYI for stragglers, there’s still a bunch of us here.
posted by mandolin conspiracy at 4:10 PM on March 16, 2019


Still here!
