Okay, so let's start talking about the next IRL meeting.
For those of us who are confused about what the IRL meeting is, it's basically opportunity for us Herd Nerds on the MB to kinda meet each other face to face, and this is usually done over Google Hangouts (because it's waaaaaay to expensive to fly everyone to the same location XD). Anyways, it's a super fun chance to meet each other, and once we get past the awkward silence we talk about the books, RPs, and stuff that doesn't really have anything to do with TGH/ROTR. But the really cool part is, is that Mrs. Alvarez also sometimes participates and will answer question about the books (witch, as I think we can all agree is totally AMAZING!).
The chat is open to anyone (you'll need to have a gmail account) with a maximum of 10 people on at one time. So if you're interested, get with one of the people already on it (Ghostblaze, Nightmist, Wispiflower, Flamefrost, Scipio, or myself) and we'll help you join.
Now onto the planning part of this. So since we have this 'wonderful' thing known as time zones, we have had to do the chats at 5pm EST on Fridays. Comment below what Fridays you'll be able to join in on for the next month and a half, or if you have a suggestion on another day and time that will work for you (keep in mind that we have people in Australia)
I might be able to join I'll have to talk it out with my parents and most likely any Friday but I might have to be late because my mom leaves for work around 3:00 pm MST
We usually go for a few hours xD
OK I just talked it over with my dad and he said not until or a little while after my 13th Bday which is may 17th
Aww, okay, at least it's not that long of a wait
Okay, Iโm basically free for everything unless my parents make a pop up, โLETS OUT TO DINNER! :Dโ
OHHHHHH I REALLY I CAN HOPE TO JOIN THIS THIS TIME!!!! Last time you all did a video chat, my mom was fine with me joining as long as Mrs. Alvarez was there. But she would prefer to keep my familyโs email addresses a secret (i have a feeling that Im phrasing this terribly wrong. Ah) But I just looked it up and Facebook Messenger video chat is free and can have up to 50 people.

I did not know about the Facebook massager video chat, but considering we have quite a few people that are 12 and under, I think we should probably stick to Google Hangouts. For now at least.
And if you're mom's worried about us finding out your email account, you can just make a new one (it's what I did).
I'm not allowed to have Messenger, Hangouts, or anything like that
That's to bad
Yayyyyyy! I'm pretty much available every friday. I have April break so thats great butin May, on the 30 and 31 of May I will not be able to go due to my grade in school having a field trip to Philadelphia.
I wont be here the end of May either, so that'll work out great
Okay, so here are the Fridays for the next 2 months, so tell me witch days wont work so we can narrow it down:
April 19th-
April 26th-
May 3rd-
May 10th- Dragon;
May 17th- Scipio;
May 24th- Dragon; Flamefrost;
May 31st- Dragon; Scipio; Flamefrost;
(I'll put your name next to the date if it doesn't work for you, and the dates that have the least amount of names next to them, will be the dates [we usually pick 2 days to give everyone a chance to join in] we'll do it on)
I can't do April 5th, May 24th, or May 31st. I know those for sure. The other Fridays are kind of up in the air for me. I just don't know yet.
I can't do April 5th either.
(Friends birthday on the 6th and I have to shop for a present... which takes me foreverrrrrr. Even before dinner as I tend to go late as my school horribly extends to 3:---- as I get off the bus at that time.
I can't do May 3rd
(Reptile Expo on the 4th and I tend to get headaches from the meetings after xD.)
Oh, I can't do May 17th either(NYSSMA)
So I have some good news!!!! My mom is fine with me joining the Video Chat as long as you guys donโt see my face and Mrs. Alvarez is there. She wants to discuss it with my dad and look into Google Hangouts, but I really think that I can join!!!! ๐๐๐๐ HORRAY!!!!
AWESOME!!!! And it's diffidently possible to turn off the camera once your in
YAAAAASSSS!!!!!!!! :D :D :D :D :D :D x gives Cats a virtual hug x
IM REALLY EXCITED! I super hope I can join! *crosses fingers*
XDD. I don't think I'm busy on any of these Fridays..... Maybe on May 24th, but that's not definite, only because school gets out into the summer then.
Your school gets out in May? NOT FAIR.
We have extra days on the end of school this year! No fair! We start mid September and get out on June 27th this year. Last year it was June 22nd.
Whos going to ask Jennifer?
We should probably get dates figured out first
I go until ... I think the 20th or 21st of June this year.
Eeeeeek
Dragon, I can do April 5th and May 3rd actually.
