halc Posted August 23, 2012 Posted August 23, 2012 I will be in attendance this year. FOR SERIOUS. also willing to go in on a group reg if we can get enough people. Quote
Abadoss Posted August 23, 2012 Posted August 23, 2012 I'll group reg. Even though I'm not 100% about my attendance yet, I don't mind helping out. Quote
Disambiguity Posted August 26, 2012 Posted August 26, 2012 I'm in for sure. Prereg is paid and room is booked. Any word yet on the room block? I'd like to try and actually get into the block this year, rather than last where where they were all like "Uh, yeah, you're totally in the OCR block. Well, yeah, you're on a different floor from everyone else, and you don't even remotely know anyone near you, but you're totally in the block. Don't worry." Quote
Adventdawn Posted August 30, 2012 Posted August 30, 2012 Stevo, you can take my name off the possibly going list, as I don't have the free time off work or the passport (which is in the works as we speak) to be able to go this year , I am REALLY hoping to be able to come down with my friends next year.

Nonamer Posted September 6, 2012 Posted September 6, 2012 EDIT 2: ROOM NO LONGER AVAILABLE. SORRY! EDIT: Also, we seriously need to look into an OCR floor. Quote
Garpocalypse Posted September 6, 2012 Posted September 6, 2012 EDIT: Also, we seriously need to look into an OCR floor. In absolute full friggin support of an OCR floor. I'm planning to go as well I just haven't paid the $40 nor do i have solid rooming plans. Quote
Mirby Posted September 6, 2012 Posted September 6, 2012 I'm still lookin' for a roomshare so if anyone's interested, I'm still available. Quote
Brandon Strader Posted September 6, 2012 Posted September 6, 2012 I'll group reg. Even though I'm not 100% about my attendance yet, I don't mind helping out. You guys can count me for a group reg too... and please update me on it if someone makes one Quote
Theory of N Posted September 7, 2012 Posted September 7, 2012 I'd be totally down for group reg. and uh...yeah, I'm still going. So...Stevo, if ever you get around to it, put me up on that list there... ...MAGFEST... Quote
Kizyr Posted September 8, 2012 Posted September 8, 2012 Hey, go ahead and count both me and Jenner in this one. We probably won't get a room, as usual, but we'll be there each day. I'll probably pre-reg the both of us once we get back to the US. KF Quote
Monobrow Posted September 8, 2012 Posted September 8, 2012 Ari and I are down for group reg. So if anyone does it, let us know! Quote
Garpocalypse Posted September 9, 2012 Posted September 9, 2012 Potential Group Reg count: 1. Garpocalypse 2. Brandon 3. Abadoss 4. Theory of N 5. Kizyr 6. Jenner 7. Monobrow 8. Ari 9. Newt That qualifies for the group as long as everyone shows. How about we split on a suite of some sort? Keep the OCR peeps together. I'll bring a sleeping bag. Quote
Bahamut Posted September 9, 2012 Posted September 9, 2012 Check the suite prices - I just know that they're not cheap. Also, if anyone goes that route, make sure there's ground rules set, since it's highly doubtful that that suite will sleep early, if at all (it's MAGFest after all). Quote

Also, if anyone goes that route, make sure there's ground rules set, since it's highly doubtful that that suite will sleep early, if at all (it's MAGFest after all). This is an ideal and possibly unrealistic scenario but if we can get 8 people to sign up (at $30 each) And somehow split an executive suite (229+%16 tax per night+resort fees) That would put the entire cost for the event minus food and travel at: 170.77/person for all 4 days. Sounds good to me. Rather than fight over who gets the bed i think we should just let Kyzer and Jenner take it. They are probably the only two who would be ok with sleeping with each other at this point. i just need a pad for the few days. I don't expect to get much sleep. I could deck out my car with a futon($14 a night) but then i would have to beg someone for a shower. I don't want to put you guys through that. EDIT: Here are the suites. I haven't checked availability but it seems like the plan is doable. http://www.gaylordhotels.com/gaylord-national/rooms-suites/suites/index.html I strongly encourage someone else taking the lead for this as I don't have the credit to organize something like this right now. I can however get cash/paypal or whatever as soon as this plan comes together. Quote
Garpocalypse Posted September 9, 2012 Posted September 9, 2012 Just got off the phone with gaylord. I was quoted a rate of 281.54/night which includes taxes and fees. Which ups the cost/person to 170.77/person for all 4 days IF we all split an executive. (4 adults, 4 "kids") 170.77=MAGfest reg + 4 nights in a room The suite does have a king bed (2 people) with a pullout sofa (2 people) and the rest would be floor space. We also get two bottles of water in the room! They still have executives open though due to the somewhat southern accent, i'm not sure how many. http://www.gaylordhotels.com/gaylord-national/rooms-suites/suites/index.html -Suite info -Tour of Executive Suite -Tour 2 of Executive Suite Quote

Also, it's probably best to keep registration and boarding separate.. Otherwise things will get exceptionally complicate. Quote
Mirby Posted September 10, 2012 Posted September 10, 2012 I already preregged; not sure if I can group register also D: Quote
Garpocalypse Posted September 10, 2012 Posted September 10, 2012 You left me out..Also, it's probably best to keep registration and boarding separate.. Otherwise things will get exceptionally complicate. Never been to MAGfest before so i have no idea what to expect. I also can't be the organizer of what i've been researching the last day so this whole thing may go up in smoke anyway. Quote
Nick The Newbie Posted September 12, 2012 Posted September 12, 2012 MAGFest DJ lineup announcement: http://magfest.org/djannouncement Yuzo Koshiro (of course), dj cutman, benjamin briggs, and blind. Quote
Garpocalypse Posted September 12, 2012 Posted September 12, 2012 Freaking yk?! really?! Now i'm tempted to bring some of my SOR remixes into the jam space. Quote
Global-Trance Posted September 14, 2012 Posted September 14, 2012 So as of now I'll be rooming with Ben Briggs, bLiNd, and Jade his wife so count us all on being there. It's essentially the DJ room, yo. Quote
BardicKnowledge Posted September 14, 2012 Posted September 14, 2012 Addie and I won't be coming this year, gang -- for those of you who haven't heard yet, our first child is due in the middle of November, which makes travelling cross-country to a convention in January basically impossible. Have fun without us, and we'll look forward to seeing you next time around! Quote
Bahamut Posted September 14, 2012 Posted September 14, 2012 Congrats! (although it'll suck missing you there) Quote
