OK, super, eginhard! Gaeilgeoir eile! Nearly half a dozen of us.
Yeah, Solfrid is on the list of participants as well.
Wednesday
20H – 22H Language Games: tongue twister contest, multilingual anagrams, language recognition
If someone else is up for it, we could meet there. Otherwise we can just move somewhere else. (But it would be fun with a LLORG! team, wouldn't it?)

If somebody PM's her, she will hopefully be notified via email.

Re: The Polyglot Gathering in Berlin
Several of us know what she looks like - and inversely - so if we see her we can mention our gathering within the gathering

I'm game!
Just like Brun Ugle, I was planning on putting on a name tag with my username, so if you see someone lurking around with a "Yuurei" tag, that'd be me.

Re: The Polyglot Gathering in Berlin
I'll be there tomorrow in the afternoon if anyone wants to do anything then or Wednesday morning. We could go sightseeing or go to a bookstore and fight over the best language books, for example.
I don't know that I'll be very useful for tongue twisters as I frequently stumble over ordinary sentences, but if everyone else wants to make a team, I guess I can join in. I've decided to be a little brave on this trip and try things I don't normally do.

Guess who gets to organize the picnic at the end of the Gathering! This should be interesting. What have I gotten myself into this time?!

Re: The Polyglot Gathering in Berlin
Oh! And I checked in entirely in German! And it worked! I've never spoken German before except shadowing Assimil and repeating after FSI.

Ah, lucky you. I'm still at work. XD Hope to see you tomorrow though.

It's all about the fun anyway, no need to worry.

Re: The Polyglot Gathering in Berlin
No problem! Either we compete or we don't. See you tomorrow! (I'll arrive at A&O in exactly 24 hours, barring some unforeseen incident)
