I was just thinking it would be neat... Pretty much no way I could make it out to the other one.

Has this been discussed before? Is anyone else interested?

I think that "NA Campout" is trademarked. You should call it something else.

What about "NA Campout Too"? Or "NA Campout West"?

There's always been interest, are you planning on hosting Mindl3ss?

Over half of the problem is finding someone to host it.

Feel free to have one, but realize that you'll end up with 50+ strangers invading your yard and your house for 4+ days and it's a nightmare at first.

If serious, PM me if you have any questions or need advice about hosting an event like the Campout.

doesnt have to be someone's property right? We could just hit up a campsite with power.

this is true, but finding space for all the gaming glory will be difficult at a camp ground.

You'll see next week my friend, you'll see!

Missa and I have discussed a west coast camp out before. This topic comes up every year about this time. I would host for sure...but I am sure the base would not like that many people in my yard. Plus Felons can not get on base...and I am sure most of the NA community is
I am up for any meet up that people would plan...but I agree it is a huge undertaking.

Sleeps 25 - 28

Pool table.
Hot tub.
Sauna.
Elevator.
2000 sq. ft. deck
Nearby casino

$4,000 divided by 25 people is 160$ a pop..... not bad for a week in a luxury beach house.

I could only imagine what we would do to that house. It would be pretty sweet having a Tetris tourny on the big screen!

I like Robin's idea! That place looks pretty sweet! I've never been to Oregon. Are there any good retro shops and junk in the area?

That price would be for a whole week. If we just did three nights, we could make it down to $84 per person, at $2100 between 25.

I like Robin's idea but we can't really call it a campout when we are in a nice luxury vacation home. I'm still in though but it would be cool to have the more outdoor type campout like the original.
