So, I left the house for the first time in about a year on a Thursday night. @onthemountain covered for my regular @SplinterlandsTV stream so that I could go "meet a fan", and long time friend of memes, @jagged.
It has been such a long time since I've been to a meet up, that the venue has changed. Currently, as of 2023, the invitation is open to everyone - Last Thursday of each Month, after 6PM, at the Duke of Brunswick Hotel on Gilbert Street, in Adelaide.
@holoz0r, @mattclarke, @jagged (L-R)
It was excellent to catch up with regular people like @mattclarke and @minismallholding, but the nature of these meet ups is such that when they're successful - there's too many people present and you don't get to catch up with everyone property. @ctrpch spoke to me about the joys of stacking HIVE, and I spoke to @jagged just like I was, if I had been on Splinterlands TV.
I did everything to try and convince some swing votes in the DAO with the illustrious @mattclarke in attendance, but I don't think I was convincing enough.
Now, I'm somewhat in a crossroads. Recently @strega.azure did an illustration and story about how observant I am. She used a particular image of me to do this.
I rock up to the pub for the meet up, and I'm confronted with a gift. A gift that I though to be implausible.
Congratulations if you saw this in the first image. This made me not only laugh, but also be ashamed, terrified, and sort of perplexed as to why someone would do this to me.
But mostly, I was speechless.
This is the sort of stuff that shows how deep the Splinterlands community runs, and how we can all be "one with each other", even if we're not always one with the DAO.
Tell me about your Splinterlands meet ups. It's much better than hanging around in discord or on the chat for Splinterlands TV.

@cookiewillie nice photo 😄
Jessica says that Adelaide people are the nicest & says we should move there.
Thank you for all of your hospitality @mattclarke @holoz0r
Great to see the @minismallholding clan!
And new people to put a name to the face to the name @ctrpch
Never enough time to fit in all of the potential conversations.
Always an incentive to visit again sometime!
Was nice meeting you mate, hope to see again sometime.
You're a professional troll and a scholar. Amazing to meet you in reality.
Yay for getting to a meetup XD Those shirts are epic.
Also youngest thinks your beard is amazing (he comments on it every time I happen past your profile pic).
Beard tips: power its growth with hatred and malice for all the things the Splinterlands DAO does "Wrong" (in my most humble of opinion)
That is such a sweet gesture! Cool picture of you guys, deserve nice frame!
This photo of me is cursed
How come?
It is now my first celebrity image. First you draw it, then it ends up on a t-shirt :D
What next? A freakin' billboard?!
Such a great idea actually!
How about a maaaaaassive neon with actual halo(not arrival-like one) on??
Next you'll want "Uncle holoz0r's Dill Pickles" to be licenced. Such vitriol! (and sarcasm)
The lovely troll and scholar who gifted this to me ensured my wife also got a copy of the t-shirt. She said she'd not wear it in public. I know I certainly can't wear a tshirt in public with my own face on it, such hubris would be divine.
Maybe I should give them away as prizes on Splinterlands TV?
That escalated quickly! But I meant to ask - did your friend bough the rights to the picture?
Charge him! Such a business opprotunity.
I think you can replace this boring kinder-kid face
She is just teasing you, she already does, probably:)
There is no question about it. Only question is - how many colours you should order?
HHAhahaha
That shirt is amazing!
Might use it as the cover for my next Spl food music.
UWU
Oh god. It will never end! :D
🤣
Thanks for sharing! - @azircon

My previous @v4vapp proposal has expired. I have a new one which is running but unfunded right now. I'm still running @v4vapp and all my other services.
I've just updated v4v.app and I'm getting ready for some exciting new features after the next hard fork.
Please consider asking your friends to vote for prop #265 or consider unvoting the return vote.
For understandable reasons in the current crypto climate it is harder to get funded by the DHF, I accept this so I'm asking a wider audience for help again. I'll also add that I power up Hive every day and usually power up larger amounts on 1st of the Month. I'm on Hive for ideological reasons much more than for only economic benefit.
Additionally you can also help with a vote for Brianoflondon's Witness using KeyChain or HiveSigner
If you have used v4v.app I'd really like to hear your feedback, and if you haven't I'd be happy to hear why or whether there are other things you want it to do.
Congratulations @holoz0r! You received a personal badge!
Participate in the next Power Up Day and try to power-up more HIVE to get a bigger Power-Bee.
May the Hive Power be with you!

I need that shirt against my body.
If I get Jagged to send you one in the mail, will you wear it on a townhall? The ULTIMATE Townhall Shout Out.
I will wear it on every town hall, and never wash it.
I hope jagged is reading this.
