euroNARP photo-recap (NSFW)
mistic \| 1:55 PM on 09.02.2008	32 comments

Since this is my first week as the new teamleader of Toyota Europe Data Center Operations, I've got to go to bed on time... but since I don't wanna keep some people waiting for the pics they want...

They say a picture says more then a thousand words, so instead of writing you guys an epic 21 000 word blog, I'm posting the pictures I took already, tomorrow or the day after, I'll write the matching blog... Its just a bit hard still to put into words... the epicness that ensued was amazing...

We worked on organising this NARP for months... but I can truly and honestly say that the end was worth it! This were truly the best 4 days of my life ( final day of preparation and the 3-day-narp itself )

so here's the pics, as soon as I can fathom it all, I'll write the text ;-)

Some of the highlights:

-> MS Fail
-> Sonic Ownage
-> People getting imprisoned qnd set free again after a mad crosscountry 4 hour drive
-> Epic Halo drinking game

But I wanna thank everyone that was there for making this the most EPIC party ever :-)

To be short, the european alternative to the PAX-meet was fucking awesome!

thanks guys! It was indeed fucking Epic, but also a lot of lessons have been learned by me, so next year's edition will be bigger, better and more EPIC :-)

"next year's edition will be bigger, better and more EPIC"

Dude I'm gutted that I couldn't make it in the end. Moving flats is a pain in the arse and the wallet :-( but fuck yes next time I am so there! If we all start saving now then we can afford to go to PAX and go to this Euro NARP (if they are on different dates next year)

That is a fucking epic spliff, bigger than any I've seen in ages. I'm sure everything was smoooooooooth sailing after that :-)

@ELFANGEL7: In the end, it looks fkin big, but they used filter cigarretes to build it, so in the end, a lot of small ones do the same job :)

@TAKESHI: Since we noticed it was EXTREMELY great to have less than 20 people, this will probably be the set limit for next year, make sure to hog mistics blog so you'll know in time ;)

@Y0j1mb0: There were girls... but at weekends like this, you have to know your priorities. no narp was ever invented to pick up chicks ;)

@ZEE RED BARON: what? what happened?

@ALL OF YOU:
The word epic has been used to often. It's time to re-invent: FKIN A!

And not to forget, none of this would have been possible without the SW33T mary jane to take care of all of us.
