Sorry, I wasn't trying to complain or anything.
I was just saying the reasons not to go for me are stacking over the reasons to go
I'll just have to wait for another year where I fit into it more, I don't expect things to change or people to go out of their way for me.Hey Fed, where in upstate New York do you live? Because I am moving to the Saratoga Springs area pretty soon and was thinking about going to PenguinCon. If I had at least one guy joining me to make it an official road trip, all the better.
I'm about 3 hour opposite the direction you'd be heading so it probably wouldn't work out well for you :D. St. Lawrence county, up on the river.
I'm not saying it's impossible for me to go, I am saying that it's hard for me to confirm this early as there are variables constantly changing and jumping around.
Well then, you'll just have to miss out on our awesome, super secret pre-order bonus package deal, Fed.
I'm not saying a back rub from oilypenguin is included, but I'm not denying it either.
I volunteered nothing. I implied.
But he'll expect it now. You know my inability to disappoint anyone.
Well, there you go, Fed! Guaranteed back rub, now!

Why do you think I signed up for the Imperial guild so quickly?
I volunteered nothing. I implied.
In that case, I can neither confirm nor deny that you will be having a new little sister soon.
New question to crowdsource: how much do we care that we're allowed food and drink in the meeting space?.
A lot. I mean, us spectators need something to do!
Dealbreaker? No.
Huge PITA? Yes.
/sigh

Will needing to run back to someone's room to mix drinks be a dealbreaker? I imagine that bringing those drinks back into the room won't be a problem provided that it's after hours and no one is around to care.
Are you sure? I mean, I didn't talk to the person, but usually "no food or drink in the space" means you can't physically have food or drinks in a space. And that's an assumption we're not going to want to find out is wrong at the last minute. In any case, I consider that a pretty strong argument against a place.
Boogle's in 4 one Sweet Sensation afternoon break.
Your Choice of any one of the afternoon breaks; Sweet Sensation, 7th Inning Stretch, or The Energizer.
I thought these were the names of the different massages you were offering as a pre-order bonus?

Wait, what? 3 hours in any direction from Saratoga means leaving the state of NY, doesn't it? Maybe you can PM me where you'd be coming/need a pick-up from and we'll see what we can do?
So after talking with Luggage I've figured I could take a bus to Syracuse, meet up with him there when he passes through, then get a ride from him to Ohio and then do it all backward. The issue with this though is lining up the timing with the bus schedules and the company (Adirondack Trailways) only books like 2 months in advance. So I still can't totally confirm.
I will go into the 70% sure club with Boogle.
This is so tough. I will be coming to the mini con and cornhole extravaganza. But October is a nutty month for me. I know I made the bold proclamation that I would organize a poker tournament. But this will take some doing. Lemme know if you have any deadlines Oily. Pencil me in as a RSVP, but I am gonna need help with the tournament.
It is just that my vacation days are somewhat precious. I tend to blast through them for Exams.
lol, it won't take much to get a tournament together, don't worry your pretty head about that. Just concentrate on getting your time straightened out and getting yourself here.
Well, I was working on teleportation, but my tests on the baboon were not encouraging.

I've had this vision of you pulling up with TK on the back of your motorcycle. You better deliver, or I'll be pissed.

I think I lost him in that plan when I used the phrase "Nuzzle my neck for 200 miles."
Weather permitting is the operative word for October. If you want guaranteed motorcycle bad assery, I suggest you come in May.
I'm on the carpooling sheet. This far out it's really hard for me to know exactly when I'm leaving and it depends on what ends up being required of staff (and my whole wedding thing) but at the very latest I will know 1-2 months before.
