Anyone interested in some drinks or something during the conference next month? No ideas where or when yet - suggestions welcome.

I'm not sure what my schedule looks like for the evenings, but I'd be down with that.

Were we talking about having a get together at Sephirotic's house during this or what that for some other event?

I'd love to meet up with you guys-- especially since this is (sadly) my first GDC, I think I should round out the experience by hanging out with GWJers, too.

I wish I was going to the conference. I've heard great things about it. Hopefully I can make it next year.

It was fun last year, but sadly I won't be out for GDC again this year. Of course, I've got a couple of flight vouchers. I could just come out anyway. It'd be a shorter flight than braehole's drive.

You know... it's times like this I hate the fact I live in Wisconsin. Oh well, only one solution:

I'm still up for "Sephiroticon", but my house is in San Jose. Granted, it would probably be the weekend when I held it, but it's looking like less of a possibility. If I rolled it all into my birthday celebration, I could probably convince the wife.

Other than that, I am always up for a get together during GDC as I work all of a block away.

I'd be up for driving to San Jose or meeting somewhere in SF. I vote that we meet on the 21st or 22nd since I'll be in Vegas for the WVC 'til the 20th.

Well, we could do that too, but it would probably limit attendance, and with a two year old at home...

The 21st or 22nd sound good to me. I'm probably not up for driving anywhere, as I don't think I'll have access to a car.

I can put a get together together (uh, I suppose that works grammatically) at my work. We've got a lovely conference room with a great big plasma screen and Xbox360. I can bring Rock Band, we can order food and drinks... And it's all of a BLOCK from Moscone center. Granted, I won't be able to provide alcoholic beverages, but it's all going to be LOADS cheaper and quieter than if we did it at any of the local brew-pubs.

My company may be throwing a party at Jillians (right in the metreon) one of the nights, and you are all welcome there, as well. That will be catered with open bar. I suppose we could do that, THEN go back to the academy for some gaming fun...

Anybody interested?

That'd be Kick-ass! Just let me know which night and I'm there.

PS. I'm probably gonna crash your class today-- Curious to see what the guys have come up with...

You really have nothing better to do than to sit in on a class you've already passed?

Fixed. Though GDC is cool too.

To be fair, GenCon is more raw fun. GDC is pretty tame. Almost boring. It's less like E3 and more like a tame Siggraph.

Hmm! I have an idea. My job allows for one big convention each year for us full-timers. I bet I can convince them that GenCon is appropriate for my job.

Re GDC party: count me in! Let us know which plans work out for you. I'll be there, barring any work-related conflicts.

Friday is best for me as my wife can watch the kidlet on the weekend.

Friday is probably best for us as well. You are so right about the avatar.
