3 KINGS - $215 per room
[Double Beds were Sold Out/Not Guaranteed]

[AltruisticCrono]

Alright folks, its time for Geek.Kon.

There's a hitch already when it comes to hotel rooms since we didn't get them months in advance. Only the King room is confirmed while the others state Sold Out/Not Guaranteed.

Okay to continue with overflow hotels if rooms don't open? What say thee?

[Sephiroth X]

I'd say go for it - considering the circumstances and the fact that seo and i get our own rooms anyway, do you want me to book our room separately?

[AltruisticCrono]

So the general consensus was 4 confirmed attendees. Since the double beds were no longer available to book, we're guaranteed to sleep like KINGS.

Hay guys...

Dunno if I have mentioned this to you yet, (I thought I did @_@ ) but I will be DJing at this convention alongside DJ Scottaconda! It will only be the two of us on the stage this year.

Of course, this means I will need to attend the convention. So Ill be there~

So, DJ Kade,

Then you're in need of a room?, or are being provided one?, or getting your own? or already have plans to share with other(s)?

To everyone else: Rooms are sold out.
We get what we got at this point.


Also, sweet Raptor Jesus I hope that the parking lots are finally done! Two years of this carp. Also, reminder to bring swimming trunks to this, and of course daisho...


There-upon-also,. what else do we want to do while there? How many vehicles? Logistics? Restaurant ideas. Contests? Some preparation ahead of time is great, even if the plans get shot down when we finally get there, at least there was a plan.

The onsite food there was decent, so there's no way we need to worry about lunch on Saturday. Talking about a simple sandwich, which was what was delivered. What am I saying? It sucks to try and coordinate any sort of collective eating event on late Saturday morning up through about 6 on Saturdays.

So it leaves dinner friday, breakfast saturday, dinner saturday, and hangover brunch Sunday. We may need to also ask the locals if there is a Marvin's equivalent in Madison.

Sorry I didn't exactly specify... I currently have no room, nor is one being provided by geekkon. Therefore, yes, I am looking to possibly room with you guys if you can take another one on. Gen is rooming with some other people from No Brand, I believe. I CAN provide my own transportation.

I won't be doing Geek.kon this year because I will be help vending with Midwestria (versus helping vend Geek.kon) So alas have ze fun without me.

Hmm. St. Charles is near Fermilab.

If you want a bit more pasture land or a photo opportunity...

Buffalax Viewing:

Visitors are welcome to view Fermilab's herd of about sixty buffalo seven days a week from {basically 8:00am until sunset}. Driving is restricted to roads within the public area. Visitors may enter from the Batavia Rd. or the Pine St. entrance. Inform the security guard that you plan to view the buffalo, and you will be given a map. There is no fee.
