Last time I was expecting large numbers, and although there was only (I saw only, but seriously it was awesome!) only 50 of us, I wasn't disapointed at all.
Don't go in thinking it'll be so massive, but I can certainly see it being alot bigger than last time. Purely because of the people that didn't go expecting no one to turn up.
Falco - February 28, 2008 09:05 PM (GMT)
We had a list of 50 registered on enturb, plus about 15 guests I think. So with those that aren't part of enturb, and those that decide to turn up as a result of all the flyers and YFTC cards, I'd say maybe 150 ish as a rough estimate.

it's alot more known this time to be fair, the more the better! it would be cool to get anon t shirts but its so expensive..

£10.
Spreadshirt(.com?) will make t-shirts for a decent price, to any design you want. But someone posted up a site in which they had 2 t-shirts to buy.
algy - February 28, 2008 09:25 PM (GMT)
if everyone could get that shirt it would be sweet!, we should work on it if there's another one after march 15th

It'd be cheaper to buy a shit plain shirt, take it to Oasis, and get something printed.
About six quid, and all you have to do is wait liek an hour.
May I suggest...

With thanks to ash for the list on Enturb, its his/her/it's est list of people attending the Brum one as it stands
Lulz0matic - February 29, 2008 01:12 AM (GMT)
I think me and approx four others will be in attendance.
Might get moar.
I'll brief them when I see them at school tomorrow.
Tum Tum - February 29, 2008 01:33 AM (GMT)
If everyone one the list just posted, brings just 2 friends along them your looking at 135 people. They bring 3 it's 180 people.
so i reckon between 130 and 200 could easily attend this maybe up to 300 if there a good turn out.
Hermes - February 29, 2008 01:34 AM (GMT)
I'll be there with 3-5 friends

THIS IS ETHEL STREET!!!
TheDudeWhoWearsTheNirvanaShirt - February 29, 2008 01:37 AM (GMT)
I'm coming with at least +3 friends.
Ash - February 29, 2008 12:30 PM (GMT)
Hi, guys.
When it comes to numbers we're looking for an actual estimate, not a hopeful one. As far as reporting numbers to the police are concerned we're only responsible for the people we KNOW are coming, not any people who just randomly turn up on the day. Also, suddenly saying a number like 200 to them may well make them very worried so let's keep it realistic. If you think you will be bringing 3-5 people with you I'll put you down as +3 until you give confirmation that the other 2 will be coming as well. Please keep me updated here and I'll post the revised list at regular intervals so we can keep up to date with numbers.
While 200 would be great, it would also be difficult to organise and we'd need to bring more hi-vis jackets. If anyone has or can get hold of such a jacket then please bring it on the day. Even if it's not used it'll be a good safeguard.
TheDudeWhoWearsTheNirvanaShirt - February 29, 2008 06:48 PM (GMT)
I have a Hi-Vis jacket.
And I'm bringing at least 2 or 3 people, 3rd is still deciding whether he can make it.
Tum Tum - February 29, 2008 07:10 PM (GMT)
I'm bringing 2-4 people hopefully! it could be less or more on the day.
So put me down for 2
anon1812 - February 29, 2008 07:43 PM (GMT)
I may have 1-4 Extra, so put me down for one.
TheGuyFromTheCrowd - March 1, 2008 10:11 AM (GMT)
I'm coming with a few people but no need to put me down for I have already been mentioned to be coming with somebody on this forum.
Falco - March 2, 2008 12:05 PM (GMT)
I'm making this a minimum of about 56 so far, just from the list and the extra's mentioned in this thread.
TheDudeWhoWearsTheNirvanaShirt - March 2, 2008 05:11 PM (GMT)
There's a few people on the Enturb forum who said they were coming, but not signing up here.

Original Estimate was made from Enturb, so thats fine.
Laika - March 2, 2008 08:27 PM (GMT)
Myself, + possibly 6/7 others, depending.
Falco - March 2, 2008 09:02 PM (GMT)
Brit, if you can, keep the OP updated with a current count of all that are coming? Easy enough just to change the number each time we know of any more that are coming really.

Good plan my man.
Done.
Ash - March 3, 2008 12:23 AM (GMT)
I'm on it too - I'll send the police an update re numbers closer to the event.
Random Person - March 3, 2008 12:27 AM (GMT)
I'm definately bringing one friend and maybe two.

I've found another 2 hi-viz, (orange half-vests), so with TheDudeWhoWearsTheNirvanaShirt's hi-viz we are within the police's recommended 1 steward per 30 protesters (IIRC from the original emails for the 10th)
I can get a hold of some more if needed.

ANON.DEPLUME REPORTING FOR DUTY WITH 2 OTHERS CONFIRMED!
:)
Edit: /cruisecontrol..
Pennon - March 6, 2008 06:52 PM (GMT)
I'm most likely able to come, as I'm up in Birmingham most saturdays anyway, However, it's unconfirmed how many others i'll be bringing, if I'll be bringing any at all. I have informed people though, rest assured.
Soul Intruder - March 6, 2008 11:11 PM (GMT)
I'll be coming! I'm hoping this will kcik ass, i've got a 4 and a half round trip on a train... not so lulz <_<
anon.deplume - March 7, 2008 12:54 AM (GMT)
Tell me about it soul intruder..
I've yet to check the saturday train times but from here to brum give or take major rail fuck ups will take about 4/5 hours... Worth it though... and this time I'll have friends to make the journey seem shorter.
:mask:
anon66 - March 8, 2008 12:02 AM (GMT)
I’ve booked the day off work and will be coming with at least one friend.
Brumerican - March 8, 2008 06:52 PM (GMT)
I shall be there with possibly two friends in tow *woot*
Falco - March 8, 2008 07:04 PM (GMT)
I think I might be bringing a friend, they're going to let me know closer to the time.
Pennon - March 8, 2008 08:29 PM (GMT)
I've got a few friends, probably 4, not sure how freaked out they will get though, and I have my doubts about their behavior, though I have throughly explained the situation to them, and they should keep in line.

Would it not be best to only bring people who really want to be there, who really believe that a change has to be made? If someone asks them why they're here saying "For the fun of it" is really gonna be bad for us.
I know having lots of people there will seem cool, but only bring people that know why they are there. I'm missing grand slam day for this.. and believe me thats a big sacrafice for me... but i believe so strongly that something has to be done that i'm coming. Do a little role play with your mates, pretend you're a passer by and really ask them some tough questions about Anonymous and $cientology.
See what their answers are.
Pennon - March 9, 2008 10:48 AM (GMT)
There are a couple that believe something has to be done, One of them probably more strongly than me. But the other two just overheard and said they would probably come, so I'm doing my best to put them off going.
nail - March 9, 2008 01:24 PM (GMT)
I and one more may be coming, or maybe Manchester instead, depending on their decision.
