Thank you for all the organisers of the event, I really enjoyed it tremendously even if I could not attend everything. It was really a nice break to see you all again. Makes me yearn for some good quality gaming time even more!

Well done guys! This really worked out well. I'd like to see something like this become an annual party!
I'm willing to do the Jhb-Ct trip each year for 1 party since all the Ct guys get together here for rAge.

Thanks Geth for hosting me again! I really appreciate it. You always make it feel like home. Mikey, you were there from when I arrived and I really enjoyed the company with both of you from when I arrived until I left. I reckon Geth is probably the closest thing earth has to a walking google. You can talk to him about anything from birds to quantum physics. You blow my mind with the stuff you know. I enjoy talking to you about anything from sport to scooter exhausts. Every topic becomes interesting. Not in the punch lines but the way you look at life. You find a way to turn any situation positive in a fun way.
Jarrod, thanks both to you and Camilla for taking that chance and hosting this loud drunken crowd (after what you've seen we get up to at rAge too). Always a good solid outlook to bounce ideas off and know I'll get a solid sensible answer. I always thought you were a brilliant clan leader for those reasons too. And always good to catch up on the Axel and Athos news with Camilla. You've got a fantastic family!
Lee, all the way from Durban, with his wife. There were so many funny stories that we always manage to miss getting on tape... But Ducky'll be shooting some fantastic conversation on the other side of the room. The cool part about being there is you get to watch what you missed on the other side of the party too when you get to watch those videos. Meg! For me to remember your name, that's quite an achievement. I can never remember names! You won every argument we came up with that night. I'm not just talking about with me, but with everyone else too. Was fun watching.
Pmurgs, really cool meeting someone who also sits back and analyses everything from a distance. Even the way other people interact. And pretty detailed information on topics that I find interesting. If there' a good conspiricy theory or if you have different views on the news, Paul will have some interesting info.
Daz
Thanks for hosting us just down the road from Jarrod on such short notice. Please say thanks to your wife from us for being so understanding, having a crowd like us suddenly pitch up at the door and kids sleeping in the back. Can you just imagine what must have gone through her mind!
Sheri and Dirk
We've got to organise getting together up in Jhb more often. I love the conversations we end up having every time we get together. Always hard to end a night out when I come over because there's never a gap as we jump from topic to topic. To bump into you in CT too was just awesome. Really made it a national grrr party. You're deep in the heart of the clan along with Onnie! Yes, long time no see Odie! The real life nurse of the clan. Milk and cookies anyone? U2M, I love the way you guys cheered for the Bulls and helped point out the ref's mistakes. It's been a while since I've seen such passion and I enjoyed watching you and Mikey go at it. You're quite an informed spectator! Good to watch a game with you.
Classic j0nny! I love the comments that you come up with. I've never heard your kind of wit before but it is truly classic. It's probably what I miss most about BF2 is just logging in and joining your squad and hearing the voip. You are an awesome guy to talk to with the best sense of humour and Sat night, you were just classic!
Johnny (phatso), you've got a really sharp wit of your own. The speed that you think your jokes through is astounding. You can't miss a chance to watch the Jon..'s in action together. And mix in the poop from the flinger himself, Paul, who comes up with the strangest angles to shit you've ever heard. And Icenflame. Nobody actually saw him there, his ninja skills kept him hidden in the shadows flinging punch lines out like ninja stars. You guys should make a movie. No script. Just off the cuff. Nobody can write the stuff you come up with as a group! That movie would be epic!
Hubris, the best looking 'male' gamer in grrr! c'mon Phatso! You gave that up too soon. You should have made him work for it! It was good to finally meet you and Nomad. We didn't get that much time to talk and get to know each other but I'm sure we'll get more opportunities in the future when we organise more Jhb gatherings. Really good to meet you guys. I can see how you fit right in to the group like gloves. Just part of the long distance travelers from around the country.
Fly! Also, all the way from Jhb! That couldn't have been easy, with two daughters and your wife at home, I could see how you missed them. It was really good to bump into each other again. You have a really good heart my man! You'd give the shirt off your back to help even a stranger. Anyone who has met you is lucky to meet such a humble person.
Skoups! It's nice to talk to someone who also has a passion for racing. I'm looking forward to getting back online and watching how you do in a racing league. Had a look at that game yet? netkar pro
To everyone who made it that night, you're part of a great memory and I can't wait to see the movie of the XXXL party and see what I missed! And thanks for making me feel welcome even though I've been absent on the forums for so long.
Like I said earlier, I'm not good at names. There were other brilliant conversations I had... you know who you are! I'll catch up with you and we can finish that conversation. We kept getting interrupted with laughter and jokes flying around. Most conversations happened in large groups. The bigger the group, the more classic the jokes became. Everyone on form!
Greg! Missed you man! Was really hoping I'd find you there. We needed our riot starter in a vest and shorts in sub zero conditions to burn some steaks up for us. We had to make a plan in the end.
I think the best picture to sum the night up would be the 3 people who walked into the sliding door! Lee managing it twice.... in about 3 seconds! I kid you not!
oh yes! and of course...
SSSSssssssssssssssssshhhhhhhhhhhhhhh..... You had me at thanks!

Thanks to everyone for making the effort to get together this past weekend. Dirk and I had such a wonderful time!!!
We definitely need to get the Ermelo brothers and Greg to join next time too!
Special thanks to Camilla and Jarrod for providing shelter to Dirk and I once again. Much appreciated

Daz your organization skillz are top notch - thanks for all your effort.
It would be absolutely wonderful to have this become an annual event.
I just have one request - can we do it in like March or April when its warmer? Please

Wow, how can you 'top' that! Nice post Grav, capture the very essence of it all.
I too must thank Dragz n Camz fer providing the Venue and putting up with the Madness. Dude that couch of yours ZOMG that's better than a BED!
Daz, dude - Gamers Gaming fer realz - what a grrreat way to do a weekend. EPIC fun, made for a seriously memorable weekend.
Ice, shot dude for the Lifts here and there, pure Ninja

Jonno, dude, we can't thank you enough - putting up the Stooges for the weekend, providing entertainment, sorting breakfast, going all-out to make it the best visit ever for all of us. Driving us around, with SOLID in-car entertainment "GET THE FUCK OFF THE ROAD YOU FUCKING RETARD! OH THATS RIGHT, TALK ON YOUR PHONE AND TURN INTO MY LANE YOU DUMB FUCK! WATCH WHERE YOU'RE GOING P*SSF*CE!" aaaah, good times, good times.
Fantastic Tour that left us with not a single moment of qwarnez - it was all go, all the time. Leg-End-Dairy.
BTW: 88 was the perfect score for Ten-pin-bowling - if you didn't get that score, tough luck - maybe next time....I can think of only one other awesome person who managed it - my twin sister Onny, well done girlfriend, we know how awesome we are.
Phatty, pure win dude, how do you always find the catch phrases fer the tours - I've no choice now to give you an award, I'm gonna go hunting.
I could single out everyone, since I had awesome moments and convos with the lot of you, but I'll keep em to myself, I'm badass like that. .. . . . .
Shot guys, I love GRRR
