There is a Vancouver forumer thread for meetups and good times. I got to meet people through that and enjoy some drinks and food (including super hot challenge wings :^:) and dictochat.
But that was on the way to PAX, I live in Winnipeg and we should be able to do the same thing dammit! I know I've seen other 'peggers posting here and there on the forums before.
Make yourselves known and I'll see about helping organize something when there is enough interest.
