After 8 and a half years making videos on YouTube, I am delighted to have finally reached 100,000 subscribers! Thank you to all of you for your support, I can honestly say I wouldn't still be making videos if it wasn't for your patronage. 

Since milestones like this don't come around very often, I'd like to take the time to celebrate and host a little Actualol gaming party in London. So I'd like to gauge your interest/ability to attend such a party. Sorry to everyone who lives too far away to attend - I expect that by the time I reach a million subscribers teleportation devices will be available.

Nothing is set in stone, but I have a venue and a dream. Here's what we know:

- On a Saturday in February or March 2024 (date TBC)

- At Rule Zero board game cafe in East London (in a private area)

- It will run 12pm til late - drop in and out as you need. 

- We will play some large group games of Just One and Wavelength

- All-day gaming - I will do my best to join in games 

- £15 per ticket to cover the cost of the venue hire

- Space for 50-60 people

If you think that sounds fun, and you think you could likely attend such a party in February/March in London, then please let me know in the poll. Votes aren't binding, I appreciate that it does depend on the specific date - I just need to gauge general interest in the idea before I plan it further.

And in other news, my next video will be something a little different to mark the milestone. I'm hoping that YouTube send me my silver plaque by then.

Actually yours,

Jon

This is a fantastic idea! Unfortunately, a flight to London from the US is a tiny bit out of my budget, but for all of the followers close enough to attend, I love this idea for them! Congratulations. I can't think of anyone more deserving. You are a gift to the hobby.

I'd love to attend, obviously depends on my work schedule but keen!

Jon Detmer

Sounds like a wonderful time! A quick Google search says that its a mere 3941 miles away. Due to some legal issues, I am only allowed to travel 3940 miles from home. Maybe next time. Hope you all have a blast!

Would love to attend, Feb possible, March not at all.

Derek Foote

Love the idea for your local supporters, sadly I am not one of the local ones.

Hehe, one of those trademark smart-ass comments I've been hearing about ❤. Thanks for the Christmas card, Jon!

Grant Hullinger

Man I wish I could go. I've hit a dry spell and haven't played anything in at least 2 months.

Paul Spencer

My birthday is on the 25th Feb. Just saying.

Thomas P Vickery

If you can arrange it like the weekend before Airecon, a lot of us, could double up

Jon Detmer

You are most welcome. :)

Matt Ta-Min

I might be over in London at that point in time, but on balance I am going to say no rather than being one of those annoying people that vote yes and drops out last minute!

Ceedee Doyle

sorry I won't be able to for obvious reasons, lol. 😀 sounds great fun!

Would love this but can't make it from NL on such relative short notice. If you were to hold a party for your 10th anniversary and I'd know about it 6m in advance I could probably arrange a trip to London though (:

Really wish I could come, but even if I wasn't in the US in that time, it's the middle of the semester. If you ever do something like this in the summer I might have an excuse for a vacation to london tho!

My motorcycle has a snorkel attachment, but the run from the US is too much for her. :-(
