But why Wonderland? Wouldn't we come to a convention to play dance games and not to go on 100ft roller coasters?

Wonderland's arcades are really good as far as rhythm games go and we can sneak in easily (lol); if we get bored of arcade games, there's a load of coasters and whatnot to go on.

Playdium is the best arcade in the area, and it's in Mississauga, which is like ten minutes from Toronto. It's pretty good for rhythm games too and has a Supernova machine, an Extreme machine, and an ancient one (lol), plus some drum games and Guitar Freaks and Beatmania last I checked.

We could even do BOTH OVER TWO DAYS WHAT depending on how much money everyone has.

Also, no, we aren't doing one in the middle of the country, I'm pretty sure no one wants to drive over three hours.

Look, if you wanted to include everyone, you'd have to have a few conventions. Canada is FREAKING HUGE. You can't just have a "canada convention" and expect everyone from canada to come. Canada takes like at LEAST 6 hours to fly across and at LEAST a few days to drive across. You hold one in Toronto or Ottawa and you've got the best chance of people coming, though you'd never get the same people coming to the Toronto one as the Ottawa one. They're just too freaking far apart.

Again, Canada's freaking huge.

i also agree with this

Tokzic · 08-20-2007, 11:48 PM

Okay, so we've determinded that by popular vote, Toronto is the favourite approximate place to do the convention. That's good.

Now we should establish where exactly. I've already thrown out Playdium and Wonderland as ideas. What do people prefer, and does anyone have any other ideas for places to go?

**MeaCulpa** · 08-21-2007, 05:26 PM

I would say Wonderland, since there's more to do (and lol i has seasons pass). I might be able to make it sometime in September.

**freakysnots** · 08-21-2007, 05:30 PM

Not wonderland

That place full of gangs and they shoot you.

**MeaCulpa** · 08-21-2007, 05:41 PM

Either I've missed your botched attempt at sarcasm, or you have no idea what you're talking about.

JackHouser · 08-21-2007, 08:13 PM

Theres too little conventions

Zamiax · 08-21-2007, 08:34 PM

y dont they have one in NJ.

spinal_compression · 08-21-2007, 08:38 PM

Yea sure. Wonderland or Playdium.

I'll have to find $50 if were going to Wonderland and around that if it's Playdium.

What rythm games are there at Wonderland?
All I know of is the scam DDR machine.

**remedy1502** · 08-21-2007, 08:51 PM

They got that thing where you're like flinging your hands around lmfao. But other than that and the crap DDR machine, nothing. Whack-a-mole. LMFAO

mike2727 · 08-21-2007, 08:53 PM

If we do it in toronto, can someone pick up if they're driving from ottawa? I can't drive yet so yeah.. I could fork in about 100 dollars too.

**remedy1502** · 08-21-2007, 08:57 PM

It should be playdium, they have a whole thing at the back of DDR/ITG Machines, but I'm fine with Wonderland as well. I'm in Toronto so it doesn't really matter to me.

I love Wonderland, don't get me wrong, but I just hardly go to the arcade. If it's there during a time that I can make it, I'll be there for sure.

Shadow_Hunter · 08-21-2007, 09:13 PM

So is it set for Wonderland?
