ONTD_STARTREK MEET UP 2: MARATHON POLL RESULTS AND INFORMATION

Ladies and Gentlemen (…or maybe just ladies, IDK); the poll for the Great
ONTD_ST Meet Up 2:
TOS Marathon
'No School Like Old School'

has been open long enough.

There's a lot of SUPER IMPORTANT MEET UP INFORMATION BELOW THE CUT, so heads up, pay attention, read the fine print, etc etc.

EDIT 7/8: I'VE LISTED THE TEAMS, WHO'S ON WHICH, AND WHO'S OFFERED TO BRING WHAT (AND WHAT STILL NEEDS CLAIMING). GO GO GO!



The TOS Marathon will be SATURDAY, JULY 11 at my apartment in Middle Village, Queens (exact address will come in the PM I will send you once you RSVP in the comments)

It will start at 1 pm, and will end…well, whenever we want, really!


We'll be viewing the Top Ten Episodes you guys voted for in the poll, and in reverse order of demand (that way, those that come late and who likely voted for one of the more popular ones won't miss them! YEA YOU KNOW YOU ARE IN AWE OF MY LOGIC.)

The Viewing Order Will Be As Follows:

10. 2x10 Journey to Babel OR 2x8 I, Mudd: 5 votes each
9. 1x05 The Enemy Within: 7 votes
8. 2x04 Mirror Mirror: 9 votes
7. 2x17 Piece of the Action: 10 votes
6. 1x28 The City on the Edge of Forever: 11 votes
5. 1x24 This Side of Paradise: 11 votes
4. 1x15 Shore Leave: 11 votes
3. 1x04 The Naked Time: 13 votes
2. 2x01 Amok Time: 14 votes
1. 2x15 Trouble With Tribbles: 15 votes



Important RSVP details I need to know!
When you RSVP in the comments below, there are 3 INCREDIBLY IMPORTANT THINGS I NEED YOU TO DO:



1) Take this What Star Trek Personality Are You? Meme – THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT. IF YOU DON'T DO THIS, THERE WILL BE CONSEQUENCES AT THE MEET UP. This test is CRUCIAL for when I split you'se guys into Teams for
A TOS DRINKING GAME!


That's all I'm willing to say lest I spoil my evil WHOLLY LOGICAL plan. But rest assured, IT WILL BE EXCITING. LIKE, THIS SHIP EXCITING. There are APPROPRIATELY DESIGNED NAME BADGES AND EVERYTHING, YOU HAVE NO IDEA.


EDIT 7/8: THE TEAMS ARE AS FOLLOWS!

TEAM RED SHIRT
Arxev (virgin punch; fruit loops treats; hummus)
Grey_bard (veggies for a veggie platter; marshmallows)
Pirate_smiles (chips)
Wheres_walnut (sprite, Tabasco, lemon juice for Romulan Ale; chips)
Liasbuttissexy (whisky)
If_onlyou_knew (snacks)

TEAM BLUE SHIRT
Liu_xing (gin)
Iheartweasleys (2) (cupcakes)
Ink_n_imp (24 pack beer {Coronas sound good? They are my go-to summer beer}, limes, apples, ICE, rice krispies)
Sparkly_stuff
Ihateclooney (tonic, peach liqueur)
Sarahsez00 (Spinach dip, chips, something vegan?)
Echoinautumn

TEAM YELLOW SHIRT
Hjalmartazar (soda, baked goods)
Stepliana (whisky, vodka, mixers [cranapple, orange, though may buy it here, if anyone wants to throw in as well])
wndpbrd
euphorazine
pippie_poppins (themed cake)
jazzonia (some sort of dessert)
buhhhfaluffalo
aikei_chan (snacks; cups; juice)

22 people so far, you guys. AND TWO OF THEM ARE COMING FROM OUT OF STATE. ARE WE REALLY JUST THAT GQ THAT PEOPLE COME FROM OUT OF STATE TO PARTY HARD WITH US???

YES. YES WE ARE.

Now, if any of you wanted to be, I donno, uber-dorky and wear something color appropriate for your team, well, don't let ME stop you. ;)


FOOD/DRINK THAT NEEDS CLAIMING/COULD BE BROUGHT:
-Blue curacao (can't make Romulan ale without it! NEED THIS DESPERATELY!))
-Something besides whisky (good lord, people, it's like, the one alcohol I generally don't like)
-Mixers (aka orange juice, fruit juices, seltzer, etc)
-Plastic cups/plates/napkins (I have some cups and napkins, but I don't think enough)
-marshmallows/rice krispies (the ones with the badge inside!) for in-meet up treat making?
-Salsa
-Dip-like things for veggies? Hummus anyone?
-any other suggestions?



2) For Aforementioned TOS Drinking Game:
I've a growing list of things to drink to, but if there is anything that you feel must ABSOLUTELY BE INCLUDED, make mention of it in the RSVP (i.e., Spock says "Fascinating", Kirk swaggers while standing still, McCoy hyposprays, Uhura is fierce, etc etc)


3)Mention if you will be able to bring alcohol/mixers, and what you can bring:
There are two Star Trek mixed drinks I think we should try to make: Romulan Ale, and Phasers-to-Stun Punch. These are going to require the following--

Romulan Ale: white rum, Blue Curacao, Sprite (or 7-Up), tabasco sauce (though I've seen with lemon juice instead)
Phasers on Stun Punch: whisky, grapefruit juice, blue curacao, peach liqueur, lemon juice

If you are able to bring ANY of the above ingredients, DO CLAIM THEM IN YOUR RSVP. Of course, if you'd care to bring ANY other wine/liquor/beer, PLZ, DON'T LET ME STOP YOU XD. I myself am thinking of picking up a 24 pack of something, cause there's NOT WAY IN HELL I'm playing a drinking game on liquor. NO WAY.

Also, I'll have a tub filled with ice, so anything what needs chilling can go right in it.


4) List if you will be able to bring snacks/soda/mixers:
Cause GQMFers cannot live on drink alone, much though we try. Oh, do we try. If there is anything you can bring, please do! Sodas, sweet snacks, salty snacks, dips, carrots/celery for all I care! I myself will be making my world famous veggie baked beans/cream cheese/cheddar dip of AMAZING. Just give me a heads up in your RSVP about what you think you can bring.

ALSO, there is a grocery store right around the corner, not totally unreasonable in pricing, so if you'd rather not lug stuff, we could have a grocer run.

If you can't do numbers 3 or 4, would you be willing to donate some money at the door to cover some of the food/drink costs? Alcohol/food is expensive, yo, help a poor fangirl out!

ALSO, I was thinking that around 6-7 pm, we could order pizza (or something equally simple and easy to share) for dinner. Y/N??



AND THAT'S IT. SERIOUSLY. THE BALL IS NOW IN YOUR COURT.


SOOOOOOOOOOOO…KIRK NEEDS YOU!


TO DO YOUR PART!


AND SPREAD THE WORD TO YOUR MOTHAS EQUALLY GEEKTASTIC F-LISTS, THE MORE THE MERRIER.

IF YOU HAVE JUST FOUND OUT ABOUT THIS WEE LITTLE SOIREE INTO THE FANNISH, DON'T PANIC, OF COURSE YOU CAN COME, MORE THE MERRIER, ETC ETC ETC.

BE SURE TO KEEP TABS ON THIS ENTRY, FOR LAST MINUTE UPDATES/ANNOUNCEMENTS/PLAN CHANGES.

AND REMEMBER GUYS—THE BOSTON ONTD_ST MEET UP IS THE SAME DAY AS OURS. ARE YOU REALLY GOING TO LET BOSTON OUT GQ US?* OR ARE WE BOLDY GONNA GO THERE SO MUCH HARDER, FASTER, STRONGER THAT WARP ELEVEN WILL CRY IN SHAME??

MAKE. IT. SO.


*BUT SERIOUSLY, I LUV YOU, BOSTON. YOU AND THE PHALLIC TOMBSTONE** YOU GAVE JOHN HANCOCK.

**NO, REALLY.

1) FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF I got a REDSHIRT. >:( But my #2 answer was Uhura? :D? :D? Please don't send me off the ship to die, Captain.

2) I think there should be DOUBLE drinks for any time McCoy hyposprays someone without prior consent. Amok Time, I am looking at you.

3&4) I am not sure yet how much I will be lugging up to Queens, but I was thinking I might mix up a happy virgin punch thing for myself and any other teetotalers, and also make some kind of delicious snack. Possibly these will be cookies but I am really not sure yet!

[identity profile] ink-n-imp.livejournal.com 2009-07-04 07:48 pm (UTC)(link)
1) DON'T WORRY. I'M GONNA MAKE BEING A RED SHIRT AWESOME. AFTER ALL, YOU GUYS WILL HAVE UHURA AND SCOTTY REPRESENTIN'!

3&4) AND YES, I think I like the idea of having a virgin punch available, and people being able to spike their own as they see fit. Hehe, yours will be just set to stun, while mine, for example, will be set to kill. ;) I've never really MADE punch myself, so I'll leave it up to you--though if you tell me what goes in it, I could buy them here, so you don't have to lug all of it out here.

And delicious snacks are delicious. I look forward to whatever you are willing/able to bring.

Just found out

[identity profile] grey-bard.livejournal.com 2009-07-04 06:48 am (UTC)(link)
SIGN ME UP! Well, as long as nothing goes wrong.

I can bring some snacks and I am open to suggestions! Ye Olde Traditional Did It For The Cereal Box Prize rice crispy treats? Carrot sticks, celery and cucumber slices? Suggest away!

Re: Just found out

[identity profile] grey-bard.livejournal.com 2009-07-04 06:54 am (UTC)(link)
Oh! And I can bring whiskey for the Phasers on Stun! ... The one alcoholic beverage I keep in stock. (What? I have very specific tastes! Scotty would back me up!)

[identity profile] pirate-smiles.livejournal.com 2009-07-04 12:38 pm (UTC)(link)
HA! I'm UHURA! Awesome!

Um, I could definitely bring some chips. I probably won't be drinking that much as I will be driving (got the okay from my mom last night :D) and I also may leave around 8 or 9 so my parents don't worry about me getting lost in the dark.

I think pizza is a great idea and I CANNOT WAIT FOR THIS MEET-UP!!!!!

[identity profile] ink-n-imp.livejournal.com 2009-07-04 07:58 pm (UTC)(link)
No worries, we'll have plenty of non-alchie things to drink so you can still play the drinking game but still be able to drink ^_^

And don't worry, if people have to leave early, we'll try to watch whichever episodes they want to see before they go, that way they don't miss them. Heh, just trying to make sure everyone gets as much GQ awesomeness as they can while they can!

[identity profile] hjalmartazar.livejournal.com 2009-07-04 12:44 pm (UTC)(link)
1. Will Riker was my #1 with 70%, Kirk was my #2 result with 65%.
2. Any shot with a black hole or any mention of a black hole.
3. I'll bring snacks. Maybe something I'll bake, if I have time. otherwise i'll just buy something from a grocery store. Maybe a cake! And I'll bring over soda for the non-alcohol drinkers.

LOL my other second place was Riker. :( :( :( wryyyy

1. Jean-Luc Picard, WHAT
2. I know nothing about TOS, I will defer to you.
3. I have a bottle of Jameson's that sitting undrunk on top of my fridge, so I will supply at least some of the whiskey. And a bottle of vodka for meeeeee.

[identity profile] ink-n-imp.livejournal.com 2009-07-04 08:01 pm (UTC)(link)
COMMAND YELLOW IT IS THEN (have to go with TOS color coordination, after all, and not that Next:Gen nonsense ;) )

I'll be supplying the beer, though if I could skim some of that wodka off the top of yours? (I...may have a serious adversion to whiskey myself--what can I say, turns out I'm more a Chekov that a Scotty!)

2) Gin!! Will bring my own if need be, of course.

3) Non...will bring my own gin, though, haha, of course am willing to share!

4) I'll be sure to cook something delicious. Pizza is also highly acceptable.

1. I scored equal percentages on Jean-Luc Picard and Uhura. Weird!

2. I'm sure the drinking games you have come up with are amazing! I am happy there will be whiskey there.

3. As I mentioned in the last entry I will be coming up by bus so I don't think I'll be able to bring anything from home with me. I will throw some money in toward whatever people purchase and will make corner store trips if needed!

THIS IS GOING TO BE AWESOME.

[identity profile] ink-n-imp.livejournal.com 2009-07-04 11:55 pm (UTC)(link)
Huh. Most odd. Depending on how uneven the teams are, I might through you in either red or yellow, though I'm more keen to go red, as we have to go with TOS standards, and so go with Uhura.

(...even though she wore gold in like, two episodes)

I think a corner run will work, I'll see later in the week who's bringing what and what I can pick up beforehand. I'll keep you posted!

[identity profile] mirroriste.livejournal.com 2009-07-05 04:29 am (UTC)(link)
*GROAN* WHYYY ON THE WEEKEND I'M NOT GOING TO BE HERE!

*cries a little*

I do hope you do another one of these. With drinking games and the cocktails I linked to. I'm REALLY crushed that I'm going to be missing this. AGAIN.

[identity profile] ink-n-imp.livejournal.com 2009-07-06 12:31 am (UTC)(link)
TELL ME NOW WHAT SUNDAYS ARE GOOD FOR YOU IN AUGUST SO I CAN TIP THE NEXT POLL IN YOUR FAVOR, BB.

Hai! (obv) I cant go this weekend. But I'm chiming in to show how much I would LOVE IT DEARLY if you had one of these in Aug when I go there. I mean I cant legally drink and I probably wouldn't spend a whole day there (Cus it's freaking NYC and I'll probably only be there a day or two before I go off ot SPAIN) but I want to do something nearly as awesome (if you condone underage drinking you might get a gigglier pasty. I'm just saying.... even though I wont drink that much)

shutting up now <3!

[identity profile] iheartweasleys.livejournal.com 2009-07-06 04:23 am (UTC)(link)
Count me in! I'm also going to bring a friend who doesn't have an lj but is a casual reader of [livejournal.com profile] ontd_startrek and totally obsessed with the new Trek like the rest of us. We both got Deanna Troi (after that the next highest was Chekov) and we'll bring some cash to chip in for some noms.

Also, I'm probably going to make cupcakes (or some kind of sweetness that'll be appropriately themed in Trek colors) so I hope that's ok! And yeah, we're really excited :D

[identity profile] wheres-walnut.livejournal.com 2009-07-06 02:46 pm (UTC)(link)
1. I got both Chekov and Picard in equal amounts. OH NO. Coin toss.

2. I'll grab the sprite, tabasco sauce and lemon juice. I'll see if I can get the other juices/some alcohol but I might go to that grocery store near your apartment.

3. Again, I can grab whatever you need me to alcohol wise. PIZAA SOUNDS GOOD. I'm at least going to grab us some chips etc.

[identity profile] euphorazine.livejournal.com 2009-07-06 03:41 pm (UTC)(link)
Hmmm I got Picard with 70% and Kirk with 65% but I see you're having a major overload of gold shirts! Scotty was a close third.

I can pretty much bring whatever is needed - I'll bring something booze related/snackish anyway but if you go through what people are bringing and find something lacking, let me know. Although seeing as I'm going to be coming on public transport I might just get stuff at the store near your place, so I guess I can review the supplies when I get there.

Oh el oh el I have never done anything so unapologetically geeky before but I DON'T CARE

[identity profile] pippie-poppins.livejournal.com 2009-07-06 05:25 pm (UTC)(link)
UHURA?! Followed up by Kirk. I am so a Kirk, I don't care what that test says. FUCK, RED SHIRT.

Okay, I'm bringing a delicious cake... you know what it'll be... I'm not going to spoil it for the group, BUT what flavor? Chocolate, vanilla, something exotic? It will be decorated fabulously, and I will take a lot of time on it... (most of the decorating you see on Baking Posts is really rushed) A good, simply designed cake takes a few hours to decorate.

I LOVE PIZZA.

[identity profile] wheres-walnut.livejournal.com 2009-07-06 05:32 pm (UTC)(link)
CAKE. Chocolate? y/y?

I can't wait to see your decorating skills!

I am 100% Red Shirt. AMAAAAAZIIIING

If we don't have enough of the other ingredients, I could bring something else instead, but my default setting is to bring whisky.

I VOTE FOR PIZZA, YYYYYYYYYY

I AM EXCITED

I just want to say: I am jizzing in my pants, because I've never had anyone who wants to watch TOS with me!

I'm super excited!

1. I GOT GEORDI LAFORGE (70%) and SPOCK (65%) LOL Actually that fits me just about right.

2. A shot every time Spock raises an eyebrow. And every time Bones says "He's dead, Jim!" or some variation thereof.

3. I'll be happy to pitch in for food/pizza, or help buy stuff at the grocery store. And I'll bring a bottle of alcohol. :D

RED FRIGGEN SHIRT.

I'm upset.

Anyway, I come here by way of the buhhhfaluffalo and I am super pumped. I'll be a couple hours late cause I'm a slave to the man, but I'll probs be bringing some snackalicious foods. And pizza sounds delicious.

Fascinating.
