kernmist Posted May 9, 2010 Share Posted May 9, 2010 I've finally got round to putting together some info/data on Ultra Meet 4. I got about 15 results sheets back from the weekend which I think was pretty good. I'd like to thank you all for filling in forms and then berate you all for your unreadable handwriting! :rolleyes: Anyway, what data i've collated can be found at http://www.ultramarines.co.uk/Documents/UM4Data.pdf.

waaanial00 Posted May 15, 2010 Share Posted May 15, 2010 Hi all, First a message to people who know me and might care, I have taken the drastic measure of limiting myself to 1 day on this forum a week. It was becoming clear that it was seriously undermining my work life and starting to consume all of my free time. I have not been on here since probably last Friday and in that time I have noticed a massive improvement in my life, I have actually got myself into a painting routine and am starting to find time for other things. As such I will not be around much during the week and will only be limiting myself to a few things, the main one being trying to organsie Ultra meet 5. Anyone who needs to chat (not that I imagine anyone would) can PM me and I will try and reply weekly. Anyways on subject. At present I am getting the availability of my club sorted out, the reason its taken so long is that the lady who manages the hall has been recovering from an operation and her replacement is a bit rubbish. I have also investigated the alternative location should the muppet hall not be available, take a look at the link to Triple Helix Wargaming, they have a setup which sounds similar to Warhammer World but it is in the South instead of up in Nottingham. Now for those of you who are looking at the location and going hmmmm, thats kind of the crux of the issue. Its kind of in the middle of nowhere. However I have spoken to the guys and the cost of booking tables is unbelieveably cheap (£2 per table for half a day!) assuming we only get the same number of people interested (6 - 14) they are happy to do it for this amount. If neither of these options are acceptable then I think the baton should be passed to someone else, I cannot venture forth from home base too far for the next while at least so anything other than Hampshire, Berkshire or Oxfordshire is a bridge too far for me. Keep rolling those dice, I will check back in a week.

waaanial00 Posted May 21, 2010 Share Posted May 21, 2010 Ok so as my online game is offline this morning and I will be unavailable tomorrow I have the following update. It looks more and more likely that my clubs venue will be unavailable, which is annoying. The management of the hall seem to have got themselves into a bit of a pickle over the last few weeks or so. It may become available but I doubt it. So given that how are we all feeling for a trip to Triple Helix? Sometime in July (early would be better than late for me)? Basically I can book several tables now for us all and I may even be able to swag some extra buildings from my club to make a single city fight table up, which will make a nice change. So whats the feeling? I have no idea how easy it is to train it at present, nor do I know what the hotel scene is looking like. Looking at thetrainline it appears to be on the Paddington line and takes about 1:40. From the few people I have spoken to about this place the response has been positive. More importantly though is that its in the South and a few more players should be able to get access to this meet than usual. Still whats the feeling on this? I will try and get back here on Sunday but I am available on PM most days. The self imposed ban is still going quite well, I have finally decided to try and paint faces well (I may even put up a picture or two on Sunday if I get a chance). To be hoest I dont really miss this forum much but then again I am busier at work, I am sure that I will start to creep back here towards the end of the year when work goes into a quiet cycle again.

Beef Posted June 1, 2010 Share Posted June 1, 2010 If its down south and I am free (once you sort a Date out) I should hopefully be able to come. My course has just finished so I no longer have to give my free time after work to studying so I cn try and finally get some SW painted up in time if not my BA stand ready. Just let me know when and where. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/192795-ultra-meet-4/page/14/#findComment-2420682 Share on other sites More sharing options...

waaanial00 Posted June 3, 2010 Share Posted June 3, 2010 With a heavy heart I must pull out of this. I can organise the event location and everything but I cant actually attend. Work is escalating to a crazy level and so is my own club, the masses are braying for weekend events and I have been forced into organising one in the only weekend I can do in July. Sorry guys, I really am! I hate letting people down so I have to say now that its not possible before I get anyone elses hopes up. Due to crazy work as well I have yet to write up the stuff I had. I am letting people down left right and centre, for that I am very sorry.
