What's the turnout for December looking like?  I only ask because I went to a similar event in Nottingham and there was 1 other guy there.  We has a pleasant enough evening and enjoyed a few beers - but being based in Derby I didn't have to travel far.

Derby to Leamington - is about a 4 hour round trip by train - which I'm happy to do if it's going to be a reasonably active session Smiley

(Although would be fun to go back to the old Jug and Jester - been about 10 years since that was a regular of mine.  Ex-codies!)

We've had a consistently good turnout for a good number of months now. 3 was the least we had, but that was only the second or third meeting ages ago.

I'll be there for certain at least.

I'll definitely be there, with my usual collection of iDevices, and hopefully some worthwhile progress on my new project...  So that makes at least 2 of us...

Can't guarantee that there'll be many there, as it's getting close to xmas - but I suspect that there'll be at least a few of the regulars?

(The Coventry meet-ups seem to have been a bit more popular though - been wondering if it's worth just making them all Coventry next yer?)

I'll be there too.

There does seem to be more people coming from Coventry than from Leamington. You're probably the person likely to be most annoyed by such a change...

P.S. if we want to organise a Midlands Ludum Dare meetup, we should probably start thinking now. Obvious options to me: someone's house, my company's office (in Coventry), a room on Warwick campus.

I'm afraid I won't be able to make it to tomorrow's meet-up (got work to do), but I hope everyone has a good time anyway Tongue

I'll be seeing some of you for Ludum Dare, though!

Good meeting for a few of us, we had some other people turn up who couldn't find us though. Going to rectify this problem in the future by placing the Midlands Indies 1up Mushroom on the table so newcomers can just look for that.

I'll post a photo of it in the first post once I get it off my iPod.

Hopefully next year's meetups will get bigger!

Shall we do the next one at Inspire again? Anyone got any objects / suggestions?

Took a photo of the table-identifying mushroom.

Inspire sounds better! I'll look out for the 1up.

I really want to come down to this but Coventry is a fairly huge round-trip from Derby.  Any plans to take this on the road?  Birmingham or Leicester maybe?

Failing that - I might catch you all at GDC.  Might involve less travelling!

I was thinking of suggesting occasional Birmingham meetups, as it'll be more convenient to get to for anyone further out who fancies coming. So I'm up for that sometime.
