OC3D Meet Up and Bench Session.

[Stromatolites]

Nice one Eddie. It a bit hit and miss with me for the next few weeks though as its exam period in uni starting next week.

Mid June onwards would be a cracking time for me

I can't make the Aria event as I'm over my misses house the night before and I don't think she will like me leaving her to go overclock after not seeing her for three weeks XD

 

[PCTwin]

Ok. I've spoke to the boss today after the meeting and while he's not against the idea, he has reservations.

Insurance is his biggest worry. We need to put together a document exempting the company from liability if anything goes wrong or we harm ourselves in any way while we are there.

If we do this and everybody that attends signs one for the event, he'll discuss it with me again.

In all honesty, he's not the kind of guy that knows anything about overclocking, he's a businessman. He had a kind of dumbfounded

look on his face as I tried to explain what we do, but he did say so long as the safety aspect is covered he can't see a problem.

I don't want to get hopes up, but I think we're in boys.

What do you all think.

It's at Walton summit, right next to the M6, M65 and M61

 

[Stromatolites]

That looks like a cracking place Eddie

I have no problem signing the health and safety forms.

I had the same experience trying to ask my work If I could get some space to overclock (they said no

) but when I explained it properly to the misses a few weeks back (I have been with her three years and she told me I have never mentioned it before in that time...) she seemed quite interested, she then told her father, who was even more impressed. I kind of think she didn't listen when I told her what overclocking was but hay ho.

Anyway, Eddie you are a star if we can get this place to overclock. Do you have any idea what sort of hours we would have access to the area???

 

[PCTwin]

We're talking a weekend here and there. Saturday and Sunday. Pick a date.

 

[Stromatolites]

Sounds like a plan

As for a weekend, I don't think I'f free now to mid June (and that's only one weekend, 18th-19th I believe)due to uni work until the 3rd, and then I have a week away on holiday (then free weekend) then the following weekend I'm in London. Other than that I don't think I could make it until July

I know I seem like a pain in the arse, but if you want to do the 18-19th of June I can make it 100% if I have some notice

 

[PCTwin]

First of all, I want someone to draft a document for me to show the boss, I'm useless at legalese.

As for the dates, if the first one goes okay, there could be more.

who else is available, and can we get some cooling.

Well I think Dice is more or less 100% and I think Tom is on sniffing out LN2.

I wonder if OC3D Tom would fancy coming...

 

[marsey99]

[MSIRawZ]

Amazing. Lets get that letter sorted and book for those dates moose can be there?

 

[MSIRawZ]

We all still ok next month for this?

 

[MSIRawZ]

He we got a draft letter sorted yet guys? Don't want to leave it too late.

 

[Stromatolites]

I'm in the thick of my 3rd year exams mate, haven't had the chance to think about benching much these past few weeks.

 

[marsey99]

I'm not much of one for legal writing tbh, might he best to ask your gaffa what he needs it to say so his arse is covered.

 

[PCTwin]

Okay everyone. This is where I've got to with the letter. If nobody has anything to add or disagree with let me know before Thusday 26/05/2011

That's when I will send it to the boss to see what he thinks of it.

[MSIRawZ]

Any news Eddie?

 

[MSIRawZ]

No news?

 

[Stromatolites]

Eddie is hiding! Getting a but close to the 18th now for mr to be sure that I will be free, remember it's a mighty old treck for mr up north, and so far I only have up till the Friday off as I'm on holiday that week and land late afternoon on the Friday.

We need to make sure we have it all covered before we set a date. So once this gets done on the legal side, we should look into the date and time.

Tom how's the LN2 hunt? Were you planning on LN2ing over the bench weekend or just dice?

 

[PCTwin]

I e-mailed the boss Tuesday 31st but he was off a couple of days for his son's wedding, will e-mail him again Monday.

Hope to sort it soon, we're gonna be busy July.
