MMM London meetup - December 2017 Potential
« on: November 29, 2017, 12:44:56 PM »
Hi all, as mentioned in the other thread, I've set up a poll about a potential December MMM meetup in London - if you are in the area please vote on dates, and we'll see if we get enough interest to hold one in December, or if January is best.

Location to be arranged, will be somewhere in central London.

Thank you for setting up D&D. It’d be great to meet up - it can be a lonely existence running against the crowd :-)

Would be great for this newbie to join you - and share some likeminded thoughts.

My in-laws are in London and I'd usually be in town on the 18th overnight with work, but school holidays this time... :(

Thanks for setting up the poll dreams_and_discoveries. Would be lovely to thank some people in person who helped me when I first joined on here.

Hi all - not sure I've set up the poll correctly..... I wanted people to be able to select multiple options, but it doesn't seem to have worked...

I have only been able to select one option, I think there is a maximum votes per user option but I haven’t set up a poll before so don’t know how it works in practice.

Yes, afraid it's a one option only poll. There's more info on how to set up polls here:
http://wiki.simplemachines.org/smf/Posting#Poll_Options

There seems to be a setting to allow people to vote multiple times. And one to let them change their votes, which might be helpful.

Afraid I voted for the 30th slightly at random for testing purposes, and am not actually around that day! In general January is probably better for me, but I might be able to squeeze in a December meet if the stars align :)

The weekday evenings would work best for me, but my work schedule isn't finalised.

Yep I messed up as well and chose the 30th but now have a family function that day and I can’t undo my vote. January is probably best for me but I would do my best to make a December date if free.

Hey all, given it looks like we're all really busy, we'll postpone the meetup until Jan.

That sounds like a good plan. We have a whole year in 2018. Looking forward to meeting already!

I'm a bit late to the party, but I just wanted to say I think this is a marvellous idea and I'd love to come along!

Great - anyone got any suggestions for January - any dates / locations to avoid?

I've made a new poll! Showing here: https://forum.mrmoneymustache.com/uk-tax-discussion/mmm-london-meetup-january-2018/

Don't know if I'm going to be able to make this one, but happy to be remote tech support :P

 

Wow, a phone plan for fifteen bucks!
