Thank you, God.

How'd this go for everyone? What code was released? Any goers want a handful of billions for their costume code?

It hasn't happened yet.... the date is next Saturday, April 28th.


Rangle and I are planning on rolling in on Thurs. night, so we'll have Friday to tootle 'round a bit. Anyone else thinkin' along those lines?

How the heck did I mix up the dates like that? D'oh!

For some reason I had thought this event was taking place the 18th- surely hope someone does take the time to tweet/record some of this, would have loved to have gone.

Thanks much for the heads up! 'Spose if anyone isn't into costume codes same applies, let me know if you'd rather a handful of billions than the code itself.

Enjoy the event all who be going!

Was there something planned for Saturday morning breakfast?

I'd be happy to go to Holder's on Sunday.

I'm arriving around 10:45 Friday morning. Dramen and artphobia are getting in before that but waiting for me to arrive since I've got a car rented.

Plans are to go to Schaub's Meat Fish & Poultry at the Stanford Shopping Center for lunch. I'll be having the Fred's Steak Sandwich of course. Red Gren is likely going to meet us there and I'm not sure who else might be attending. Feel free to join us. I'm trying to get there around 11:30 to 11:45, and there is a little desert and drinks shop across from it that we found last time that we might hit as well.

I've not heard definitive plans from anyone about Saturday breakfast, but I'd like to do Holder's on Saturday as well as Sunday since not everyone can make one of the days. I'd like to hit Holder's around 7:00 Saturday so as to have plenty of time to order and eat before the Pummit. Sunday can be a bit later but nothing firm is planned on the time Sunday either.

I still haven't heard from Zwaffleresistant about whether they are going to be able to do anything for an early registration Friday night but it would make Saturday breakfast easier. Otherwise, we'd likely need to be back by 9 AM to register.


If the game spit out 20 dollar bills people would complain that they weren't sequentially numbered. If they were sequentially numbered people would complain that they weren't random enough.

I think it's the one on Saratoga but I'll have to double-check.

I have it programmed in the GPS unit but I haven't picked it up from my nephew yet.

EDIT: Checking old PM's it looks like it's the one on Saratoga. You may want to check with Red Gren just to make sure. I was planning on talking to people next Friday about it, but I can go ahead and plan to be there Saturday anyway.

Hello,
I am looking for someone who might want to split a room. We have had a complication, and I don't have a room booked. Please drop me a line if anyone would like to share.

I'm hoping for a 3pm arrival time on Friday. However, it may be earlier or later, depending on how a few other things work out.

Well, I arrive at Norman Mineta Intnl' airport around 12:05 pm friday! Yes!!

I know I'm a bit late, is there anyone carpooling from there around that time? If not, it should be easy getting a taxi...

Sorry, we'll have already have left and will likely be enjoying our Fred's Steak sandwiches (or whatever the other folks joining me are having) by the time you land.

Since we can't check in until 3:00, we'll probably kill a bit of time looking at the scenery walking by at the Stanford Shopping Center for a while.

I'll second what Hyper said, thanks for doing this for the other players. I'm driving in so I'm good as far as transportation goes. Thanks again for the offer crayhal.

The only reason for being so early Saturday is to have time to eat and get back in time for registration before the Opening Ceremony stuff. I'm considering 7:30 instead, but would prefer to do 7:00.

As for Sunday, 8:30 sounds good to me, we can talk about it with the rest of the crew once we get together for the events. I don't leave until late Sunday so I'm not in that big of a rush for breakfast.

Since it hasn't been posted anywhere (including the schedule in the first post) what time is registration opening on Saturday morning?

Will there be any early registration available on Friday night?

Almost as an afterthought something scrambled across the back part of my brain.

Two years ago I stopped by Paragon Studios office and was not allowed past the lobby.

This year, I won't be alone on Friday afternoon.

I wonder if they'd be able to turn away several players fresh from eating a good Fred's Steak sandwich that stormed their offices?

One of those things that makes you go "Hmmmmmmmm".

TJ, what time are you doing lunch on Friday? Me, John, and Chris land in SFO at 1:30pm (I think), and God knows we're gonna be starving by the time we arrive in San Jose.
