The Finns have had an Annual International AH Spring Meeting eight times already, and another less official one in the autumn for some years now. All it takes is a place to meet and someone to organize it. The details may vary, it may be a lan party with people lying in sleeping bags under their computer tables, a civilized lan party with accommodation or just a get together event without computers. The last one is of course the easiest to organize, because there's no need for a bunch of hubs and switches, not to mention a good broadband connection.

The main purpose is to meet fellow gamers face to face, so every alternative works.

So to answer your question: You can have an aussie AH gathering right when you organize it. If the participants like it, they'll be waiting for the next one and, if you're lucky, they'll help you with it. :cheers:

I'd reckon a Prawn meetup would involve much beer, b/s'ing and bbq'ing, sounds great!

Prawns are pretty spread out, our CO lives in Singapore and the rest are spread out somewhere between Brisbane and Perth. I think the same goes for Dantoo's mob. If we were to have an east coast one, where would you have it? My personal suggestion would be Jupiters Casino Gold Coast but maybe further south would be better from a logistics point of view. There is always Temora airshow.

Even though I am of a superior creed :D and that I would be mocked at every given chance...especially if there was an all blacks  v kangaroos match which by some strange anomaly we lost :lol :lol :lol...I would jump the ditch for this...would be cool to see some of the faces that have kept me coming back for more...
