The last meet was excellent and totally kickin' rad and sweet. So we're gonna do it again.
What I need are some alternate locations. We've got people coming from both up north AND down south, so keeping venues limited to the greater bay area means people from both spectrums don't have to drive too far.
A bar or pub seems to be ideal, as they're easier to socialize in. Hanging out for a couple hours in a restauraunt is a great way to get stabbed by the servers, as lounging at a table costs them money. Pubs (usually) also have some kind of games to be played. Pool, darts, golf video games or shuffleboard.
My recommendation (90% because it's rad, 10% because it's close to me) is Buffalo Bill's Brewpub. They have a bunch of in-house ales, a shuffleboard, indoor & outdoor seating, and goddamn PUMPKIN ALE.
Do not be afeard of it's Hayward location. While a great deal of Hayward is a hole, this is in the fairly newish, semi gentrified downtown part. 4.50 per pint means scary people don't come in to drink much.
Use this thread to make your suggestions. Once we settle on a place, I will procure another selection of dates that we can all vote on.
