Oh there?
I went in the station and walked there for a quarter.

Well, i should have probably posted that picture in first place
Well, there are other times to meet again. Either at the 4th of december or before.
Just send me a PM if you want to give it a try again
I got only 10 minutes to get there ^^

It could have some relation to the massive train outage
And standing under platform 5/7 you could have noticed that there where almost no trains. I was very close all day, but I had to work

Better luck next time!

Just in general: meetup at the ArenA isn't a great idea on matchday, before long you are surrounded by fans.

I am well aware of that but i dont think that there was a match yesterday.
For the 4th of december i dont know if there is a match but maybe someone who follows football, might have knowledge of that.

Ajax played PSV that day.

on the 4th, it will be NEC, also at the ArenA, at 16.45.

If we meet at 12 and make a getaway at 12:30, we should be able to avoid the crowd. Otherwise we have to check for an alternative place to meet. Centraal i dont really know well enough.

Hey, I think I can go as well
I ain't doing much at the 4th of Decembre, and the same for a few friends of mine
If you post or mail:
*an exact location (for example, the place in the picture you posted)
* an/or time to meet up , or in between a short period of time
* and add things, like clothing, which make it easier to recognize you
Then I'll be glad to see you on the 4th

Till then

Well, i would be up to meet at the same location but early enough so we dont collide with the Ajax fans.
I would say 12ish is a good time and in the worst case we can exchange phone numbers beforehand to make sure we dont miss each other

So in between 11:45 and 12:30 I guess.
Sounds cool, I have an suggestion what we could do that day
-Sended you an e-mail
You have received word of it

Got a nice input from Chevan this weekend what we could do on saturday, if people are interested.
So, basically we would meet at 12 at the Arena and leave around 12:30 to grab something to eat and have some smalltalk about the usual stuff like games, anime, manga etc.
Around 1PM we could go to the RAI in Amsterdam. There is the 26th anniversary of a Japanese shop. See pictures for details:

After that we could go to a comic bookstore in Nieuwmarkt if anyone is interested.
Once we are done with that, we could go and watch a movie or go somewhere like here:

For me that would probably not really work, because my understanding of dutch is probably not good enough to understand the comedy aspect of dutch humour but maybe its interesting for those who can understand it.
This is basically a idea from Chevan so i dont want to take ownership of the idea but i want to share it with you.
Tell me what you think about it.

Mmm, that is interesting, I did not know that Meidi-Ya was celebrating.

And in Boomchicago they speak English, I went there last Sunday.

Well, thats an advantage in that case
Its 20€, so i dont know if everyone will be up for it.

Hmmm... interesting.

If my schedule allows it I may meet up at Meidi-Ya, that lies at a walking distance from my home.
And from there follow along towards the city-center, there are quite a couple of stores which sell manga and anime related goods and I don't mind leading you around a tad.
I'll come back to my participation later on, I need to check my schedule for this week when I get home.

I think I can be there at 12:00 in the Bijlmer.
I don't think I can come to the Rai, I wil have to do some shopping afterwards.
When I come you will recognize me at my red bonnet and green coat.
