  1. I'm going to call them tonight after work, like I said...telling them to expect us between 7:45 and 8:00 sounds about right for travel time, correct?
  2. That's what Mod 8's post said...

    Does that mean you've lost your powers? Maybe I should pack my pool cue after all! I know people said I was losing because I was drunk, but I know the truth! It was your unluck powers while watching the game that doomed me to failure!
  4. By the bye, after seeing the following picture, I want The_Pope on my team!

  5. I was running about like a chicken with my head cut off yesterday, so I didn't get to call yet. I'll be calling this evening when I get home from work.

    As for what time, I was thinking we had decided to meet at the hotel at 7:30 am and go from there. It'll be cutting it a little close, I think, but I just don't see us getting people up any sooner.
  6. To save on the hussel and bussle leading up to the live mission, I thought it might be nice to have our teams already set up before hand. So here's a handy thread to put together your live mission teams

    Team Jerk Hackers
    1.) Frog
    2.) Floorman
    3.)
    4.)
    5.)

    I'm so excited....

    Oh... and... should I buy a Kindle for the trip? I just can't decide... I'm thinking.... yes.

    Holy chit! I should have read this thread sooner! (no pun intended) I'm gonna get to meet Sooner *happy dance*

    Hero-Con 09

    *pokes his head in*

    On the flight out, I'll be watching all the episodes of Macross Frontier that I missed. That may take the flight back, too...as well as the last few episodes of Valkyria Chronicles. I have a couple of episodes of a new fansub on my PSP, too, but I'm not sure if I'm going to get to them or not.

    Looking forward to seeing you guys again, even if I haven't been as active on the forums lately!
  9. Plane tickets...check!
    HeroCon registration...check!
    Costume...check!
    Bags packed...check!
    PSP with 4 gig memory card loaded with fansubs...check!

    Can it be Thursday now?
  10. If someone could be so kind as to give me the phone number for this place, I'll give them a call tonight or tomorrow and see what we can do about making sure everyone has space. We've got 22 on the list, but I'm going to tell them 26 to be on the safe side.
  11. I know that feeling...I still remember how I felt at the M&G at Dave and Busters two years ago...I really wanted to stick around and enjoy the after party, but the flight combined with the change of time zones to wipe me out pretty early.

    Fortunately, I'm coming in on Thursday, too, but I'll be spending a lot of the day Friday in San Fran, so I'm not sure how energetic I'll be by the point I see everyone
  12. I think it's safe to say that everyone from every time zone will most probably been pretty lethargic Saturday morning. I say that simply because I know 90% of us were out pretty late last year, and regardless what internal rhythm your body clock is on, less sleep is still less sleep. But, we can all hope that the adrenaline and the excitement of the day will help keep us up and on our feet...especially since it's probably going to be a LONG night

    EDIT: I heard back from Avatea and she says the schedule should be posted soon. She also said that if we can finish breakfast by 9:00, we should be fine. But she wasn't specific, so I don't know if that means registration opens at 9:00, the store opens at 9:00, or panels start at 9:00.

    Either way, sounds like we might be in for some early mornings. I'm afraid I might see Karo drink Mountain Dew for breakfast again! I sense tears coming from the East Coasters.
    Based on this, maybe we should shoot for a 7:30 meeting so that we can (hopefully, assuming no one gets lost this time) make it to the restaurant by 8:00. This is hella early for my schedule, but sacrifices sometimes need to be made
  14. When Going Rouge hits, I'm going to make a character that looks just like Tammy Faye Baker! What are YOU going to do?

    (Yes, the misspelling is intentional)
  15. Given the crowd that's going to be there, calling the restaurant might not be the only phone call we need to make...we might want to give a heads up to the Fire Marshall, the local Sheriff, and the National Guard

    I don't know how soon they will spot this, but I know that Ronnoc and Bacon Lord Bob had mentioned a slight interest in the Bacon Waffles. *cough* It would likely be a safe bet to add them to the list as well.
    Sorry TJ...I'm not all here today
  17. Red Gren's right...we need a thread to try and figure out what time to head out, and who all will be joining us for the breakfast on Saturday morning. I'll start the list of who's wanting to go, and we'll discuss any details in this thread.

    Red Gren
    Frog
    Floorman
    TJ
    Ronnoc
    Bacon Lord Bob
    NuclearToast
    Arwen
    infallible
    PhantomEnigma
    MissInformed
    Karoiseka + 1
    PlasmaWarrior & PlasmaDad
    Pope?
    Dark_Respite
    Bloodspeaker
    PuceNonagon
    Peep
    Scimi
    Manoa
    Somber
  18. Yes, but what time will we be doing the breakfast? I need to plan for this sort of thing, as I'm not exactly a morning person, and I want to be sure I'm up and about and at an appropriate meeting place to hitch a ride there
  19. This cannot come soon enough...I'm looking forward to seeing everyone again!
  20. Happy cake day! Does Smoke bake himself into the cake for you on your birthday?
  21. Oooo...I'm actually on-time with my birthday wishes! Woo hoo! Hope you have a great day, Fanny!
  22. The only way to beat Protector is if everybody from every other server votes against them...they always stomp everybody.
