July the 29th Trottinghamshire Bronies Picnic/Meetup

After some hiccups the date of the next meetup, has now been decided.  The date  of the next meetup is the 29th of July. This time around, the plan is to go to The Arboretum park, just off the University of Nottingham central campus for a picnic – weather permitting. This park is a fairly decent size, so we should be able to find a space to hold the meetup.

Just in case the weather is poor, we will start the meetup at the [ALT] Gaming Lounge about 12 PM, and then go the Arboretum about 1 PM. Facebook and Discord updates will be provided throughout the day so that if anyone is joining us after we have left the [ALT] Lounge, they will be able to track us down. 

Feel free bring your own food and snacks, however put any food in a backpack you will be taking to Arboretum, if you will be meeting us at the [ALT] Gaming Lounge. If you are meeting us at the Arboretum, just wait at the entrance closest to Nottingham Trent University

If the weather is poor, we will just hang around the [ALT] Gaming Lounge, catch up, and play games (including card games).

The ALT bar serves delicious food and drinks and they have been accommodating enough to treat us most excellently during our meet-up events, so if you can, please do buy things at the bar.

This poll would normally have more dates on, however most of the people running the group are going to BronyCon in August so can not run a meetup that month.  

The poll is now closed. The Winning date is the July the 29th.

June 10th Trottinghamshire Meetup (Fighting is Magic Tournament)

Following the closure of the poll for the next date for a Trottingham Bronies meet-up, the winner is Saturday the 10th of June 2017.

As usual, this will be hosted at the [ALT] Gaming Lounge, starting from 12:00pm.

Please feel free to bring along your own games of your choosing. However, please bear in mind that on the 10th there will be a Nintendo Switch tournament going on at [ALT], so there may not be as much free space as usual. We are not planning on getting involved with the Switch tournament.

We also hope to be doing a Fighting is Magic tournament on this same day at the computer stations of the [ALT] bar (Pending confirmation from [ALT] staff). Because we need to pay for the usage of these stations, we ask anyone who wishes to be added to the tournament roster to pay a small charge of £2. Of course, If you want to come to the Meetup but do not wish to take part in the Tournament, you do not need to pay a thing (Though putting some money into some food and drinks at ALT would be appreciated).

We may not be able to get controllers that work with Fighting is Magic – Tournament Edition, so there is a chance that it will be a case of having 2 people at the same keyboard.
