Hi Todd,

the thread where we voted our current name started on 1999-11-16  and ended
1999-11-17.
I think that 1999-11-16  is OK.

Ciao
Mario

At this point, I'm inclined to say that there is no such thing as UKLUG,
beyond the web site put together by Simon Denscombe.

There is no evidence of any organisation, no officials, no constitution,
no T-shirts, no nothing.

I had hoped to get some sort of discussion going at yesterday's
gathering, but there were too many other distractions :-)

If anybody else thinks that we really should get something tangible off
the ground, please make yourselves known by responding to this post.

On the other hand, if you think that the way things are at the moment,
with a loose affiliation based around lugnet.loc.uk, is all we need,
please stand up and say that as well.

I'm definitely of the opinion that we need an events manager, though
;-)

I thought it was 'Studs' or 'studs', since it is not an acronym.
What about the MUGS and HUGS ?

I thought you were SLUGS, and the fests were StudFests.

And I don't know if there's any "official" inception date for MUG, but I
guess we could say 2001-01-26 as when we voted in our spokesman? MUGs wanna
comment?

I'm definitely a SLUG, the others may be studs as well.

In my little mind I'm a member of STUDS (capitalised, isn't an acronym, just
funny in a non-PC non-genderspecific in-joke kind of way) which is the Sydney
regional Lego Users Group (SLUG/SydLUG). Our bi-monthly gatherings are variously
STUDSfests (because they're our fests and we're members of STUDS) or Studfests
(because the bricks we play with have studs on them) -- I prefer STUDSfests.
SLUGS is a vaguely derogatory/self-deprecating term (depending on who says it)
that refers to the members of STUDS.

Yes, a SLUGfest sounds like either:

1. a night at a French restaurant eating snails
2. an event of the World Wrestling Federation

It's up to you Sydneysiders, but does the self-image of being an eater of
molluscs or having the same IQ as a mollusc seem that appealing?

Be a man, not a mollusc, I say!

I think the first real meeting was mid 1999, Ben would know for sure, so I
would say that is the date.

Did we have the inaugural MLTC (VLTC) meeting yesterday?

Probably. I just wasn't sure when MUG was first uttered in this context...

Reckon so. And I just uploaded the track design to brickshelf, complete with
dead-end and suicide-loop! I'll do a write-up soon. (Got those pics Sue
Ann?)

The GFLTC was formed at the H&R Train Show (Sat, Oct 2, 1999) where I met
Dennis and Nick. We talk for an hour and decided to start the club.

The GFLUG started at a GFLTC meeting on June 21, 2000. This is where KK Quah
and I decided to start the LUG.

OK, got it -- both dates.  Page updated.  Thanks!

Anyone feel free to correct me if I'm not remembering correctly.

What's the 5-28 date from?

I think it was a little before that - The first post to the Lugnet Sealug
group was on Aug 24, 2000. I would have thought that we met before we got
our official Lugnet group. Maybe in July?

For these last three, the year should be 2001, not 2000.  Just a minor
correction.  :-)  Thanks.

Todd,
GBLTC was mainly a joke. (It really never existed....)

The real name is: ITLTC: _IT_alian _L_ego _T_rain _C_lub.
http://www.itltc.org/

As you can see in: http://www.geocities.com/mario.ferrari/itlug_news_e.html
it was born October 13th 2000.

Thanks!

OK, so is 22 Jan 2000 the "official" date that your organization was formed?
Or was that just its first official meeting?

If I'm reading this post correctly...

...DixieLUG came into being on 19 Dec 1999?

First ever face-to-face meeting.  (...I'm hesitant to use the word
"official", though, in response to some spirited discussion quite
a while ago regarding which term to use: "members" vs. "attendees".
One of the more vigorously defended opinions -- by whom,
I no longer recall -- was that the term "members" would be too
formal and officious, so we agreed to stay informal and relaxed.
Just simple, laid-back Southern behavior.  ;-)

OK.  That works for me.

I hope that recollections have been of assistance.  ;-)

Thanks,
Franklin

PS,
In case I've not yet said so, CONGRATULATIONS on y'all's upcoming marriage.
