I think we should meet here in Guernsey island. It's half way between France and England and, well, I live here!
Seriously though, I like the idea a lot (talking about the game etc) but hate the idea of seeing how nerdy you lot really are
Speaking of RL gatherings, have you ever heard of Fantasy Live Roleplaying? About 3,000 UK people meet in Derby every August for 3 days and it ends in a big battle. Maybe us brits could meet there in character, he hee. The site of 2000 tents and every fantasy creature/character you can imagine is amazing!
