What are the chances of that working? 1/100000000?
By the way, if you did move, you'd have to stop calling her "mum". it's "mom" here.

Re: Scratcher Meetup @ MIT

I really want to go to one, but I doubt it. I don't know how many people here are close to Madison or Milwaukee WI. If there is one in WI, and It's close, I'll see if I can go.

Well, my mum(my  big_smile  ), is going to Brasil so I might convince her to take me with her (and leave my dad(dy  tongue  ) at home).

If dad(dy) you are reading this, I am only joking. Of course. Yes. Yup...
*cough cough*

EDIT: On second thoughts, I think Brasil might be further away from America than England... meh. I'll figure it out some time...

Wait...why can't we all get free tickets or something? If we only do states, we wouldn't get to meet our friends in different states! Think about it....

Re: Scratcher Meetup @ MIT

I live in Oregon. I have some friends in Oregon that are scratchers, such as harry344, lolo12345, and some others. I like both sparkygirls and HarryPotterGals ideas. BTW: I could do one of the places to meet: Portland, OR. Oregon is one of the largest "programming " states (people go crazy about it here) so I could probably hold the gatherup there, because over 2 million people live here... and a lot are programmers!!!!!

Do you like games with a twist?
Then you HAVE TO see my two new games: SEARCHLight and Park your carrot! They are awesome games that you just HAVE TO see!

Re: Scratcher Meetup @ MIT

I was in Boston once. It was Memorial Day or something and there was a big parade there. I'm going to go to Boston a couple times during 8th grade- in school I'm going to be going to MIT!! But, right now, I'm going to be in New Jersey for Thanksgiving. And I live in MD near DC. I guess NJ isn't close enough to MA for me to come though...  sad
