Sorry for the shitty reception on my part, though I hope you guys had fun here in Austin and with Deschain. Definitely worth a trip back, as there is a bunch of awesome things to do here in the area. This is a cool idea though, wish I had known about it sooner.
I feel really bad we didn't get to meet, but it was just awful timing with my work as you know (going to fall in bed after I finish this post ). Hope you enjoy the rest of your trip, and stay safe of course! _________________

Its ok Hailz, I was a bit of an absentee host. Tried to switch out shifts so I could get the day they were there off, but my coworker wasn't having it. Still had a great time! All 4 guys were chill dudes, and were certainly able to entertain themselves while I wasn't there. It was too bad the weather was horrific that day, Zilker's a nice place to visit.
I have to give props to Armadannon (as he has been newly christened) for not having played rhythm games in 4 years, then being exposed to WoR and going straight for Holy Wars and Master of Puppets. Then he wanted to do customs! Fantastic group, and hopefully I guilted him hard enough so he'll be back in April for the get-together.
Yeah, I still got mah SH shirt! Representin' and such. _________________

Glad to hear that the group ended up with a reasonably aces Austin wing of the trip at the end of the day, all things considered, work-based logistics notwithstanding! And, of course, I heartily encourage folks to make it back to Austin for the April get-together, where I will be lugging myself out there from my comfy coastal climes for a cameo appearance, wherein I will hopefully have the opportunity to schmooze with more of the ScoreHero family!
(This is all part of my ongoing plan to see just how much acumen I can accrue for myself here despite having no top-tier fake-guitar ability, no sublime exotic talents, and possibly nothing beyond raw idiot-grade force of personality.) _________________

Guilt him! Guilt him HARD! Haha! We definitely need to have a good time in April.
Yeah the weather was truly terrible, especially after all those beautiful days last week. Bummer.
FTR if I had been there I would have worn my Gergorge shirt (yes, I have one) and lols would have been had. I've realized I can't wear that shirt in public at all because of course nobody gets the joke and I have to oddly explain it. FINALLY MY PURCHASE IS VALIDATED. _________________

Aaaaah, I forgot to make a final response to this thread! Thanks to everyone for the offers, and I'm sorry for the consistent tardiness in responding. If and when I travel again, I'll be much more timely and up-to-date in order to meet as many of you as possible.
Oh, and a huge shout-out to Deschain for being an unbelievably kind and generous host. Couldn't have asked to meet a better guy! He laid down the guilt trip on me to coerce me into attending the SHTX get-together, of which the jury's still out; with some heavy arm-bending and a little divine intervention, I might be flying out to TX in April!
Once again, thanks to everyone for the kindness that makes me remember why I came back to meet you guys! _________________
