So the Other tent (meaning this forum) has been very slow since the arcade forum was started. That being said the people who still hang in here are mostly year round residents. I don't leave this forum much myself except to cause some trouble when the lineup comes out.
I was thinking that it might be fun to see if the year round regulars and other various cretins who still hang out here in the Other Tent were interested in getting together a caravan and camping together in GA camping. Most of us who hang here get along well. Especially since I've been staying out of the Obama thread (f**king commies ).
I thought that those us of who are going could get together a big old camp and have lots of fun.
I figured that a camp made up of people from around the country who have mostly never/barely met each other in person and only know each other from discussing their random thoughts and eating habits and feelings on John Mayer's love life on the internet could only be called Camp Clusterf**k. It has a nice ring to it also. ;D
So... Anybody interested?
And yes mods, I know that there is a forum for making camping arrangements and such. This can get moved there if it picks up some traction, but even then it may not be the best thing. My intention is to get together the folks who hang in THIS forum, not to get a bunch of noob strangers looking for some one cool (and well prepared) with whom to camp. So please let's just leave this here for a bit and see what happens if that's OK.
And if you think that my motivation in posting thread has anything to do with starting an off topic thread in the wrong forum and getting away with it, you'd be at least partially right. ;D

Nope. That's in tent only. I'm not carting all of my stuff over there. I'll be there for the brunch. This is more like the island of misfit toys camp for the derelicts that post off topic all year round. I'm pretty sure that most people who camp at camp inforoo never come in here.
I just didn't want to advertise it in another forum at the start.
such an elitist move. what are you to good to start this in another forum? It has to be here? i will talk with my buddy and his woman thats gonna go down, and the little lady. and we will see what we can do. i always enjoy the posts and i do love me some fishing. are you planning on just camping in tent only or meet up and go in?

I am not camping in tent only. I will be camping next to my car. Therefor if this goes down I'd like to meet up at a local landmark and caravan in, do a land grab where we park and have a big camp or a small camp depending on interest. As of now I'm going with my 24 yo nephew (kangaroo), and there are some others who are unconfirmed that may travel/camp with us.
It's still early, I'm just looking into possibilities.
I was just kidding you about camp inforoo, ya know. They are a bunch of elitist over there anyway. Kidding again.
I like camping with my car as well. I have weathered several storms at roo in my car/truck. I usually get a weather call giving me enough time to gather a meal and then get in and have a picnic or read.

Each year I go to bonnaroo I plan less and less, so its hard to confirm anything now as I am not even sure how I am getting there, but this could be something I'd be interested in. Seems like a good idea; I didn't get to camp inforoo as much as I would have liked last year, but it seemed like it was getting pretty crowded.

I'm sure you all be relieved to hear that, while I think this is a great idea, I'll also have to stay in the "access" campground if I decide to go this year.

I for one am disappointed.
Don't you judge me!!!!
Ziggy, I like wild cards. If it happens that you camp with us cool. If not, I hope to see you somewhere.
Bek, if it will get you there I will make blackened catfish as that is my favorite fish. And it's local (hopefully very local) so as to guarantee freshness.
Camp Clusterf**k is a far superior name to Camp Rockin' Maniac.
I don't know. They are both good camp names. In fact the ferocity of Camp Rockin' Maniac would somewhat overshadow, or at least carry camp clusterfuck judging by the initial response.
I like Camp Madison South just the way it is. I'm already, strangely, thinking this might be its biggest year yet.
If I wasn't planning to volunteer, I'd probably get in on this. As of now, I'm looking forward to my 2nd year in Volunteer Camp. But I wouldn't mind stopping by for some of that blackened catfish. Will you be using shoe polish or spray paint?
Normally I would be down, but I am really thinking this is my year for camp inforoo. With the lineup being what it is, and me living in Nashville I want to do tent only and leave a car off site so I can go home a couple of times.

Hey man, I've got a group of 3 people so far, and we want to build this ginormous canopy/pavilion deal. 12 ft in the middle, 8 ft on the ends. We most likely wouldn't mind meetin' up with you and whoever else and making one HUGE chill area. The more the merrier
