Bay Area Clone Club S5 Premiere Party

Hello BACC! Long time, no talk! 

Since season 5 is fast approaching and it will be our last opportunity to do livewatches with one another, we figured it’s high time for another watch party!

SO, we are having an Orphan Black Season 5 Premiere Party at @spacenuggetrey ‘s apartment in the East Bay! 

Details:

What: S5 premiere party!

When: Saturday, June 10 5pm- 10pm 

Where: @spacenuggetrey’s apartment in El Cerrito, conveniently close to BART

They don’t have BBC America, so we will find a stream to watch or get the episode in another means and we can put it on their TV and make it all fancy!

Let’s do one last shebang in the Bay and have OB themed food and good times once again. 

Anyone is welcome! If you’re interested in coming, please send an ask to this blog to RSVP and we will connect you with the address of the party location! Please keep in mind that the apartment is not the largest space, so we may not be able to accommodate a huge number of people, but if we get a large enough interest, there may be opportunities for all of us to get a hotel room or two for cheap!

ALSO: 

There will be a S5 Finale party in LA, with @socalcloneclub, a repeat of our epic @bayareacloneclub /@socalcloneclub S3 premiere party of yore. So stay tuned for that, as well!

Tagging those who may be interested who have made it to previous watch parties: @hellacophine@unaba5hed, @b00ksandcleverness, @dweebitdorkit, @gayverlyearp, @coolami69, @thosefarplaces, @politeyeti, @valiantprincess, @clonesofdunshire 

Huzzah!

REMINDER, folks! This is happening tomorrow!!

If you wanna come, please send an ask to this to get the location details!

Hello friends. Sestras. Brother sestras. Everybody. It has been quite a while. How’s everyone?

So we all know that this June marks the end of an era. It’s the end of the trip, man. The last season. The final hurrah. This means we are long overdue for a shindig! Who is interested in attending a premiere or a finale party?? Even if you haven’t watched in years or are no longer in fandom, the Clone Club Dance Party is open to you.

Please fill out the survey above and let me know if you have any questions. I hope to see everyone again soon! More details to come.

We make a family, yes?

Hey friends, This is a thing that we want to do and set up. We're trying to figure out if it's better to do it in NorCal or SoCal, so please fill this out and help us collect data for prime partytimes!

Hey, I'm from the bay area but I'm out of town at college at the moment. Will there be any meet-ups during the summer?

Avatar

Hey friend!

There probably will be, though we don't have anything set up formally!

Some of us will be going down south for SDCC so any Bay Area folks who want to meet up if their down there too should do so!

Bay Area Clone Club Meetup: Wed, April 1 @ 5-9:30ish-pm

Hello folks! So after gauging interest for another Bay Area Clone Club Meetup, we’re officially planning things!

WHAT:

Gallivanting around San Francisco’s Japantown and then playing a Real Escape Game: Escape from the Time Travel Lab! Meeting people! Shenanigansing! Perhaps talking about the ethical quandries involved in cloning!

WHEN:

Wednesday, April 1!

We’ll start to meet up in the city at 5:00pm, and then the Real Escape Game will start at 8:30pm (though we need to be there at 8)

WHO:

YOU ALL!! And also we’ll be having special guests joining us visiting from socalcloneclub -tatianathevampireslayer and tittymalaysia, as well as politeyeti coming all the way from Australia ohhhh yeah!

WHERE: 

If you’re coming to gallivant around before the Real Escape Game:

Meet at 5:00pm in the Peace Pagoda in front of Japan Center West Mall! (that link will show you how to get there by car & public transportaion)

Japan Center Malls: West 1737 Post Street San Francisco, CA 94115 

If you’re going to just do the Real Escape Game

Meet us here at 8:00pm!:

SCRAP Real Escape Game Event Venue 1746 Post St San Francisco, CA 94115

OTHER FUN (AND SUPER IMPORTANT!!!) DETAILS: 

Feel free to come to one or both parts of the event! Everyone of all ages is welcome, and we’d love to see you in whatever capacity you can make it!

BUT HERE’S THE REALLY IMPORTANT PART:

If you want to do the Real Escape Game, I will need the following two things from you:

1). Your RSVP of  100% Commitment ASAP! The real Escape Game has a maximum capacity of only 11 people, and the 6:30 slot is unfortunately already booked, so we can only fit so many people! We already have 5 slots reserved, so there are 6 SPOTS OPEN! Send me an ask ASAP and if you’re one of the first 6 people to reply, the spot is yours. BUT it needs to be a 100% YES I CAN DO THIS I WILL DO THIS RSVP because of….
2). Your moneys! I swear I’m not trying to scam you. In order to book the slot for the Real Escape Game, we have to provide the number of participants and the payment upfront (we can pay at the door, but it’s more expensive and there’s no guarantee of the spots). It’s $29 per person. I am willing to reserve and pay up front, but I will need y’all to paypal me your amount. If you can’t paypal, I’ll need a 100% commitment that you’ll be able to pay me the day of. Also if someone can’t pay but really really wants to go, i’d be great if someone could volunteer to help out with it!

So yeah! Who’s in? I’m super excited to see all of your awesome faces!

hey bay area clone club: meetup?

Hey y’all! Since our last meetup at the Exploratorium in December went so well, I figured its soon time for another one!

I’ve been having an idea rumbling around in my brain for months for a really fun activity we could do — anyone interested in doing a Real Escape Game in San Francisco? We could make it sometime in March!

It’s a game where you get a team of up to 11 people together and using teamwork and clues you uncover, you try to escape from a locked room filled with riddles and puzzles and cool objects! They have one themed just as a regular room, and one themed as a Time Travel Lab (personally I’d be down for that one)

Check out the link for details, but it’s really fun! It’s all ages, takes about 2 hours, and then we could wander around Japantown before and after!

It costs $28, but if you’re short on cash, I’m sure we could all get together and help you out!

Reblog this post and let me know if you’re interested! You can also send an ask to bayareacloneclub telling us you’re down, and when we find out what the interest level is, we will start polling for possible dates!

Some of you in the area I know about  who might be interested (please spread it around to others I miss!):

Anonymous asked:

whats the average age among the bay area cloneclubbers? just curious because i feel like i would be too young :(

There's a range! I'm not sure of the ages of everyone that will be attending this meetup, but several of us (including me) are out of college, some are college age, and some are in high school. We have planned it to be all ages specifically so anyone of any age can attend. The younger members of bacc were left out of our last meetup and we want to meet everyone!

I just wanted to pop by and say hallo! Just found this thanks to aparadoxinflux. Loved OB since day 1. Always wondered why us individual CCers weren't called something more clever like 'Monitors'....? No? er.. ok. *hands mic back*

Hello! Welcome to the Bay Area Clone Club! I have no idea why we've never adopted a succinct moniker on an individual basis. Hive mind. We do not function alone. We already know we are all Tatiana Maslany. Maybe that should be our name.

Bay Area Clone Club Meetup: Thurs, Dec 4 @ the Exploratorium!

Hello friends! 

So it’s kinda last minute notice, but I want to announce to y’all that there will be a Bay Area Clone Club meetup this week! politeyeti is visiting from Australia and so why not just turn it into an awesome clone club meetup!

When: Thursday, December 4, 6-10pm

Where: The Exploratorium, Pier 15/17, San Francisco

What: We will be exploring the museum and having shenanigans at the “After Dark” adults only night, mixing science, art, and cocktails (this is an 18+ event, so apologies to Bay Area clone clubbers who are minors—we will get you next time!). 

This month’s After Dark is themed Glow, and you can check out all the cool stuff that’s going on here

Tickets to the museum for After Dark are $15, and you can buy your tickets in advance on the Exploratorium’s website so you don’t have to wait in line!

(Also, if anyone has trouble getting the $15 together, I work at the Exploratorium and can get 1 person in for free, so please message me.)

We’ll plan on meeting in front of the museum at 5:45-6 at the Comet sculpture and then all go in together!

Message me for further details or if you have any questions. I’m also happy to give out my skype or kik info privately in my askbox if you need help getting to the event!

Who’s interested? (Tagging everyone I can remember was interested in BACC shenanigans!)
