Meet up?
-
It's been a week since there was any further discussion on this.
Can we perhaps have someone to mastermind such a meet up, to poll the community, find out what, when, and where would be best and then to organise something?
-
Ok let's get the ball rolling on this then.
How about a trip to Thorpe Park on dates loosely around Halloween? It is a place we have visited in the past and seems to remain a fairly popular destination.
If people could give feed back on that as the basic idea, we can build on the dates and perhaps organise a non-park day for the same weekend.
edit: I may as well throw in Alton Towers in there, as an alternate choice. That has also been popular in previous years.
-
Sounds good to me.
As mentioned previously, I would recommend making it a full-weekend event.
-
nods Ok I get that.
My interest here is trying to find an 'alternate attraction' day, one which is away from the Park. So far Alton Towers seems the better option for that.
The Peaks are nearby and have many areas for accommodation. If we were to stay in an area such as that, then it opens up the possibility of a role playing event with organised games. It has kinda been done before for a Murder Mystery night.
-
That sounds promising, plus with it being out of season, accommodation for the weekend would most likely be more reasonable.
It's a grand time of the year on the accommodation front. I know various places in the area which would be perfect for location and for gaming activities.

We did a murder mystery a few years back.
It was very good, but it was expensive and very few people came.

With social media being more prevalent and readily available, it'll be much more easier to reach more people, more quickly and raise awareness.
I didn't know about that event, but I am sure if other people in the community knew, the attendance would have been higher

The murder mystery I am referring to was one done entirely within the hostel we once stayed at.
I'll do a post shortly in regards to what the weekend could look like.

Greetings,
Another fine attraction is Tulley's Farm Shocktober scarefest, West Sussex. Some of us have found it to be a great night out. This sort of attraction can be preceeded during the day by a trip to Thorpe park. I live close by and can accomodate people if needed.

I have to say, I much preferred the Tulley's Farm stuff to the Fright Nights at Thorpe Park.
Many more attractions, many changing each year, many hours of entertainment.
-
Of the ideas I've heard so far my choice personally would be team building activities be they canoeing/raft building/orienteering etc and things of that ilk daytime and the in house murder murder mystery as a Saturday showcase.
-
For a while I toyed with the idea of a murder mystery dinner for the Knightmare Convention, so it would be interesting to do one in case it becomes a possible future event.
