Capa Langley Posted October 2, 2010 Share Posted October 2, 2010 I'm going, and looking for a person or two to split room cost. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ferret Posted October 2, 2010 Share Posted October 2, 2010 My attendance is contingent on two things--Having a means of getting there, and having someone to room with. I would add a third condition of having people to hang out with but the first two are far more important. I expect to be in Carroll County, MD within the next 10-15 days so if Mount Airy is on anyone's path to Alexandria I'd appreciate some assistance. So for now I'm still a "maybe".

bustatunez Posted October 2, 2010 Share Posted October 2, 2010 +1, not sure about hotel or plane stuff b/c I'm not sure if I'm getting in a day or two early. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
José the Bronx Rican Posted October 2, 2010 Share Posted October 2, 2010 GOING! The plan so far is to room with Dyne and others. Before we continue, the word from bgc and Brendan is to decide very quickly if you're going, and then GET PRE-REGISTERED ASAP!!, because it's likely they're going to fill to capacity again, and anyone still putting off might miss out. Don't be one of those people. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xerol Oplan Posted October 3, 2010 Share Posted October 3, 2010 I'm working on editing M8 video: Also since the old thread got axed here it is again: We don't have any good cameras this year, and I would like to borrow a few if anyone has any they don't mind lending out for a few hours. We especially need panel coverage so if you just want to operate your own camera in a panel room all day that's fine too, just drop by and give us a copy. Any equipment we borrow I'll take personal responsibility for and probably buy you a pizza or something too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bahamut Posted October 3, 2010 Author Share Posted October 3, 2010 Well then. At this point I can promise to be there Friday night through Sunday. Thursday's still a bit iffy. Thursday is when the fun kicks off! Also a word of advice for some of you - you'll probably want to get some people's phone numbers if you haven't met any of us before so you're not completely clueless at first, and so the fun can start asap.

Murmeli Walan Posted October 3, 2010 Share Posted October 3, 2010 I'm totally going. Also driving if somebody from the western PA area needs help, although I'm not sure who out of my friends are going yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrumUltimA Posted October 3, 2010 Share Posted October 3, 2010 I am probably going! I just have to figure out how Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BardicKnowledge Posted October 3, 2010 Share Posted October 3, 2010 I'm still looking for a floor on which to sleep. I'd prefer to room with people I have met in person before, or short of that, someone I "know" on IRC. Anyone with extra room, let me know -- it's just me this year, Addie has a conference in CA that week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abadoss Posted October 3, 2010 Share Posted October 3, 2010 I'm coming. I've got the time off approved, I've pre-registered, and I've paid for my flight out there. Can't stop me now! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cyril the Wolf Posted October 4, 2010 Share Posted October 4, 2010 I'm still looking for a floor on which to sleep. I'd prefer to room with people I have met in person before, or short of that, someone I "know" on IRC. Anyone with extra room, let me know -- it's just me this year, Addie has a conference in CA that week. If you need one, I'm pretty sure I have at least one slot left. I've got Me, My cousin, Epicenter, BrianSpackle and YOU! Maybe one other person, but if he doesn't pre-reg soon he may be SOL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
