Day 1: It Begins...
Sort of. In reality a couple of mods actually arrived to Philadelphia the day before but being that I wasnt there and this gallery is only covering the meet days I'll not even attempt to recount that side of the story. If you want that end of it, go talk to Afro-Ninja!
So it was a hot and humid Friday people began arriving to the office to mingle and wait for the group of mods attending to be complete before we headed out to the Poconos. On with the photos..
P-Bot was around to greet everyone at the door and blam would-be ps2 thieves...
A beardless Tom arrived at the office catching up on his daily news
Bob and BlueHippo take a look at the special gift Rucklo had for the gang (more on that later).
The note reads:
Dear staff of NG: Please accept this gift and let it be an inspiration throughout 2008. Keep up the good work. -Viktor

As previously mentioned, some mods arrived the night before... this Ninja obviously partied way too hard the night before. lmao
and so did Captain Bob and JoS
and Poxpower
This is probably the happiest I've ever seen Tom
MindChamber is really into robots
Some mods slugging it out on Fight Night
Wade eventually arrives to keep his mod children well behaved
Luis, Uberbarista and Afro-Ninja take over the NG conference room to setup a conference call. Imagine that!
Tim preps the big screen while NegativeOne does his best to look productive
Fellow mod, The-Swain joins the mod meat via video conference. WEAK!
Jonas spots a cock drawing and cant resist the photo opp
gotoAndStart ("contraversy");
Time to head out to the Poconos!
Two hours of driving later, we arrive to the Poconos check-in area... it appears Jonas expected more
Pirate Steve emerges from the van
More mods arriving in Wades van

Same picture but from the opposite side! Bob snapping the picture in the distance
Arriving at what will be our home for the next two days
Uberbarista and Bob struggle to get the keg up to the main floor... the rest of us laugh like idiots!
It is a well-known fact that moderators maintain their strength through the consumption of a wide assortment of chips and pretzels...
high sugar content snacks...
but most importantly Swedish Fish
Tim fires up the grill
If there is one thing I learned about Tim, its that the man is a master behind the grill.
More food photography. You love it.
Meanwhile inside, mods build their hunger via Rockband
While Tom does the dishes
Aviewaskewed admiring the way Anna handles her hot dog.
After dinner some mods went down in the basement, where there was some sort of card game that Jonas made up going on. I couldnt quite follow what it was exactly.
Poxpower and Uberbarista come down to crash the party
Tim doesnt seem that fond of it. lmao
NG's own Rockband does their take of Maps by the Yeah-Yeah-Yeah's.. Afro-Ninja on the drums, Tim on the guitar, and Jonas on the vocals (which sounded terrible, sorry Jonas)
Tim is playing to win dammit! WIN!
A new rockband takes the stage.
NegativeOne toasts to Newgrounds
Whatever Uberbarista is smokin' I want some
It started getting late and we started to see mods succumb to sleep. -1 Uberbarista
Bad things happen when you fall asleep around other newgrounders
Tom dosed off briefly and I ALMOST managed to get a full drawn cock on his forehead before he woke up and made a run for it!
Mama Tequila will be in for an unpleasant suprise when she wakes up and looks in the mirror tmrw morning!
And so Day 1 wraps up much the way it started, with mods falling asleep all over the place. Goodnight sweet prince. goodnight.
