35 Pagals in one meet.

We the puys of PUNE claim it to be the biggest PG meet ever held in any city! Any contenders to this spot?

Can we officially declare it as *The largest Pagalguy Meet ever Held*

And they all had only one thing in common -> Insanity. Insanity was a single common factor that bounded ALL the people together. How else do you explain Mitesh travelling all the way from Bangalore to be in Pune for a few hours only for the meet, Talli rushing off from SCMHRD straight to the meet or even the eagerness shown by maulin to attend the meet, efforts taken by so many people to be present even if they had just a few minutes to spare, etc etc. Just another testimony to the fact that PG is not just a online forum, its much much more than that. *What PaGaLGuY.com means to me* was there to be seen on everyones smiling faces that attended the meet. More to say on this but will reserve it for a diff thread

Anyway so I reached the venue exactly at 5.30 ( 5.38 if the SIIB blokes are to be believed ) along with Ali after watching Traffic Signal, eating a biryani, some shopping and some crosswording Met some of the guys at the entrance and was amazed when I was told that there are 20 more people sitting inside Saw mituag among them and recognized him instantly, not really because I had seen his pic although I told him that I dont know how but I knew that this was mituag -> probably because of my great intution skills and the fact that he was the only unkown face there So we enetered in and climbed the stairs of Mocha and see that almost half of the upper floor was all occupied by the GMAT folks who were seriously involved into some serious discussions And soon as we settled down 75% of Mocha top floor was filled with Pagals

And so the meet began.... and what did we talk about?
Well literally everything from serious issues like ban on the id Neel !! to trivial issues like demi-mod thread. Also eka was providing us with intermittent gyaan on PG and its futre plans People kept joining in and some leaving. Really appreciate the effort you guys you took to be there only if you had 15-20 mins to spare Jackal joined us later and when pestered about the PG shirts, offered his own TShirt that he was wearing. Of course no one took it for reasons which don't need any explanation

It was time for some serious eating and so were ordered the chocolate avalanches and some other things. The chocolate avalanches disappeared at a rate faster than they appeared And then we talked and talked. I tried to instigate some fun by asking the eternal question to The SIBMites and SIIBites -> Which is the better college? Unfortunately cool heads prevailed and there was no show-downs and show-of-strength thing as expected :(

And then we talked and talked more. Some of us confronted aim-wsc about the demi-mod thread, and the outcome -> After 3 pages of the thread, two sessions on Sb with aim and one personal meeting later I still dont understand what that thread means Talli joined us later after his SCMHRD process and jackal failed to recognise him, but he caanot be blamed really. From the long-locks-dude of last time to the mamma's good boy look, koi bhi dhoka kha jaayega Many more things. But itna kaafi hain aaj ke liye More details avaialbe on demand


The meet later shifted to Apache where we whiled away our time. After that myself and Ali went in to watch Parzania. Talk about stamina and energy Who said *healthy* people were lazy and inactive And I reached home at 1.45 tired but content

PG.com rocks

Mast post...pretty much summed up the meet DoOd ...sum observations after this entire thing
1. NIkk and OMG aajkal spend too much time together...eating biryani,watching movies and shopping...wats cooking?
2. Jackal was offering his tee...which means he was willing to do a half monty rather than bring out those PG Tees
3. Eka aajkal sounds like a glib executive talker :satisfie:
4. Grondmaster was hogging the choco avalanche...and proclamied he was dwn wid measels sum days back and still has a sore throat :eh:

and most importantly

5. There shud be a serious debate on the issue of Cloning


Neel !!

I hope the All India Meet witnesses a bigger turnout than this one

WOW !! Is it so? well i am happy to hear that.

I must confess that i wanted this meet to be big. REALLY BIG
...it was my last event on the pagalguy since i had decided to leave the forum for some time so i thought lets MAKE IT BIG

i suggested people to set chit-chat Pune meet on 4th. (voted here ) and declared GMAT meet on the same day...

I used to be on shoutbox and so nikhilkulk
that helped us/me synchronise the latest updates from both the ends

{{oh yeah! shoutbox rocks }}

we had some instances where the Pune mega meet plan was sinking but we managed to keep it. I thank all GMAT junta for this.

the meet was deliberately set on 4th & also i was rooting in chit-chat section to have that meet on 4th too

so if meets dont merge all my planning will go waste...
all right I am not that selfish
I pm the genius & inblue for this matter & i think it s OK to have meet on 4.00 pm
...
this is how it went BIG REALLY BIG.

I once again thank all people who came to the Pune PG meet and made it BIG.
thank you.

I dont really remember the party scene properly, but i dont think we had a chat about that thread.
I asked you about the esjay thats it. nothing much

some correction though:
the thread is still on page two (not on three)
+
we had only one session on shoutbox (& not two) regarding that thread.
///... it was like
shout #1: you asked a question
shout#2: i answered it
shout#3: all right/OK ": | " thats how you responded... i dont call it SB-session ///

anyway by my last post you must have realised that i wont be on the forum anymore for some time... i talked with reachmonil about this matter. and i ll reply to that thread once i am back.

FAREWELL!

I uploaded all the pics from my cam Some of the pics were taken from mitu's cam which should be in ekas laptop. See if you can spot yourself anywhere in that

And not telling about the meet next day, huh Who was supposed to leave for mumbai early next morning?

Cheers to that , considering that not long ago, Pune PG meets were infamous for their low turn-outs

@aim: I dont know why you are retiring from the forum, am sure you must be having your reasons for that, just one thing to say -> we need you here and I am saying that based from whatever little I have read in the GMAT section. Hope to see you back soon And yes we owe the success of this meet to you. We would never ever had such a HUGE meet without you and all the GMAT blokes The efforts you took were priceless. You rock
