Voting for February and March 2022 Meetups Dates

It’s time to pick the dates for the February and March Trottinghamshire Bronies meetups. This poll will close on the 23rd of January at midnight. Like the last time around there is also the optional question to pick dates that you don’t want to have the meetup on, to be used in case of a tie break between days.

Changes for future meetups

The plan for future meetups is to start them at the Playwright 38 pub on Shakespeare Street in Nottingham. We will not be meeting up at the Train Station first like we normally do.

We will book the back room (just past the pizza oven), for between 12 PM to 6 PM. It has adequate table space for people who enjoy playing card games, so people can play TSSSF (Twilight Sparkles’ Secret Shipfic Folder), Tails of Equestria (a Pen and Paper RPG), and MLP CCG at the meetup.

It is also close to the Victoria Shopping Centre so if anyone wants to do some shopping during the meet, you won’t have far to go. If playing tabletop games is not your thing, there will be plenty of people at the meetup with who you can just hang out and socialise with.

I think it goes without saying, but it’s probably a good idea to bring a mask to wear in the shops and for when moving about the pub, especially considering the new Omicron variant.

Voting for September/October and November 2021 (IRL) Meetups

It’s time to pick dates for the  September/October, and November Trottinghamshire Bronies (IRL) meetups. This poll will close on the 12th of September at midnight. Like the last time around there is also the optional question to pick dates that you don’t want to have the meetup on, to be used in case of a tie break between days.

The Plan for the Upcoming Meetups

The plan for the next couple of meetups is to start at the Costa Coffee in the entrance hall of Nottingham Train Station at 12:15 PM. Then at 12:30 we will head over to The Johnson Arms via the Toton Lane tram (Getting off at Gregory Street) hopefully getting to the pub for 12:45 PM.

The Johnson Arms has adequate table space for the people who enjoy playing card games during these meets, such as TSSSF and MLP CCG. We may also be running a game of Tails of Equestria, a Pen and Paper RPG, at the meetup if we have the time.

If playing tabletop games is not your thing, there will be plenty of people with whom you can just hang out and socialise. If the group wants to, and weather permitting, there’s also the option to have the meetup in the large beer garden out the back.

Trottinghmashire Bronies Virtual Meetup [July 17th 2021]

The voting for the next Trottinghamshire Meetup is now closed and the date picked for the next virtual meetup is the 17th of JulyTo see the details behind why this date was picked, as well as the date for the August the 29th IRL Meetup, see the blog post on July and August 2021 Voting Results

On a related note, our June Meetup this month had about 5 and 1/2 people (don’t ask) on the call. Most of the meetup was spent:

  • Discussing the work we have done on our personal projects, like for example, PC Tower builds and Cosplay.
  • Watching random videos on the Internet.
  • Sharing our .Gifs in chat.
  • Talking about Trottinghamshire Bronies post-lockdown plans for the IRL Meetups.
  • And finally just catching up with other members of the group.

The plan for the next meetup

The plan for the next meetup is to run a Virtual Meetup as an audio/video call in our Trottinghamshire Bronies Discord Server within the Trottingham🔈 channel, between 12:30 pm and 5:30 pm (-ish), and keep the overall schedule as light as possible.

This way people can decide what they want to do on the day. People can even use the three extra breakout channels (Canterlot🔈,Ponyville🔈,Cloudsdale🔈) to help coordinate playing games online, and do other stuff like watching MLP:FIM or other TV shows.

Voting for the July and August 2021 Virtual/IRL Meetup Date

It’s time to pick the date for the July Virtual Trottinghamshire Meetup. This poll will close on the 5th of July at 7 pm.
Like the last time around there is also the optional question to pick dates that you don’t want to have the meetup on, to be used in case of a tie break between days.

However, because we are supposed to be out of Lockdown by July 19th, the poll also includes dates for an In Real Life meetup in August. Hopefully, this will make up for the limited selection of dates in July that was caused by other commitments.

If Lockdown does not lift by July 19th, there will just be another meetup Virtual Meetup instead. However, if we do have an In Real Life meetup it will be at The Jonanshon arms (Location on google maps).

July Virtual Meetup

The plan for the July meetup is to run a Virtual Meetup as an audio/video call in our Trottinghamshire Bronies Discord Server within the Trottingham🔈 channel, between 12:30 pm and 5:30 pm (-ish), and keep the overall schedule as light as possible.

This way people can decide what they want to do on the day. People can even use the three extra breakout channels (Canterlot🔈,Ponyville🔈,Cloudsdale🔈) to help coordinate playing games online, and do other stuff like watching MLP:FIM or other TV shows.

🗳️ Voting for the date of Trottinghamshire Bronies May [Virtual] Meetup (2020).

It’s time to pick the date for the May Trottinghamshire Virtual Meetup. This time around there is also the optional question to pick dates that you don’t want to have the meetup on. This poll will close on the 3rd of May at Midnight.

Our last meetup in April was rather successful, with about 6 people on call for a total of over 14 hours. Some of the time was spent playing Pony Town, Jackbox, Cards Against Equestria. The rest of the time was spent just catching up, and watching pony videos (or just random videos from the internet).

Because of this, the plan is to run another Virtual Meetup in
May by having an audio call in our Trottinghamshire Bronies
Discord Server
, between 12 pm and 5 pm (-ish), and keep the overall schedule as light as possible. This way people can decide what they want to do it on the day. So we can run the Virtual Meetup, Audio Channels have now been added to in the Trottinghamshire Bronies Discord Server to help coordinate playing games online and socialising (Canterlot🔈, Ponyville🔈,Cloudsdale🔈, and
Trottingham🔈).

🗳️ Voting for the date of the April 2020 Trottinghamshire Bronies Meetup.

It’s time to pick the date for the April 2020 Trottinghamshire
Meetup
. This poll will close on the 16th of March at Midnight.

The April’s meetup date is being voted on ahead of the March’s meetup, as to give people who need more than a month notice of when the next meetup is going to be, more of a chance of making it to the meetup. This will also help anyone who is traveling from outside of Nottinghamshire, as it should make it easier to plan travel arrangements.

However, in order to choose the April meetup date this month I will be excluding Sundays from the poll. The reason for this that I’m attending an event in April that I know is going to be on a Sunday. However said event is in the planning stages, and I do not know which Sunday it is going to be. So as we don’t hold meetups on Sunday that often I have decided to not include Sundays this time round, rather than delay the voting.

The plan for the next Trottinghamshire meetup

The Meetup will start at 11:15 AM in the Costa Coffee within the entrance hall of Nottingham Train Station at 11:15 AM. Then, at 11:45 we will head over to The Johnston Arms via the Toton Lane tram (Getting off at Gregory Street), hopefully getting to the pub for 12 PM.

The Johnston Arms has adequate table space for the people who
enjoy playing card games during these meets, such as TSSSF and MLP CCG. If Pen and Paper RPGs are more of your thing, we will most likely be running a game of Tails of Equestria at the meetup if we have the time to.

If playing tabletop games is not your thing there will be plenty of
people who you can just hang out with and socialise. If the group wants to and the weather is good outside, we can decide to have the meetup in the large beer garden out the back.
