RE: ACEN 2016 | May 20-22 - KarthXLR - 03-06-2016
My ability to come is waning. If I don't get a call this week, no can do.
RE: ACEN 2016 | May 20-22 - CaffeinePowered - 03-13-2016
Would like to call two consecutive short meetings for the last two Sundays of the month
3/20 - Last Call - We complete the attendance list, make sure you complete any outreach for people by then
3/27 - Room Assignments -Cancel what we don't need, assign the people that we have
RE: ACEN 2016 | May 20-22 - VeraLapsa - 03-13-2016
I've got my plane tickets and reg done. I'm flying in Weds evening and leaving Sunday morning.
Maybe make an event or announcement on the Steam group for the meetings these upcoming Sundays?

I suppose I should have said this sooner, I won't be able to attend ACEN this year due to funds and a possible internship I need to really start looking for asap. Perhaps I could be there in spirit?

Better yet, invent a new drink and name it after me!

If anyone has issue with these please let me know. There's a bit of wiggle room regarding space and we can likely fit 2 - 3 more people.
Next meeting will be 4-17 @ 8pm topics will be party planning and events (eg. Hofbrau Haus)

I would like to stay out of the Wiggle Room.
RE: ACEN 2016 | May 20-22 - TronPaul - 04-12-2016
Waiting on ACEN to notify me when the badges have been mailed. I'll post here when that happens.
It appears ACEN is a liar
Quote:We will announce in the Registration section of the forum along with our newsletter and social media when membership badge mailing will begin.or my roommate is because he tells me the badges got in today. I'll go through them and make sure everything is good and post when I have done so. The people I have on my spreadsheet and will be checking badges for are:
Quote:HeK
Luinbariel
Pinko-Medic
GenericName.brbu
kaese
Dtrain323i
TOH
at0m
LAG
Evil Cheese
TronPaul
Negate
The above badges are accounted for!

Reminder - Meeting Tonight @ 8pm CST
I've done a bit of room shuffling and I will likely need to do a tiny bit more tonight as well.
Topics for tonight revolve around extra events and some things for party planning
RE: ACEN 2016 | May 20-22 - Luinbariel - 04-17-2016
Nooooooo the extra events part I would like to be there for, but that's going to be during a tabletop session

Party, Booze, and Event List
RE: ACEN 2016 | May 20-22 - CaffeinePowered - 04-24-2016
I am pleased to announce to anyone that may have not been reading groupme that we DO have the presidential suite.
An email was sent out to people who has been booking for several years (and who also had previously gotten suites) that there were several upgrades available and we jumped in an got the same VIP suite (Confirmed w/wetbar) as we have gotten in previous years.
This tells me that the con DOES NOT pull the suites, we just got very very unlucky. The webform never has them and the operators I feel can be super hit or miss with regards to booking.
Either way - massive party is good to go!
However, with the way rooms are set up at the moment - we have a bit of a conundrum. We need to make sure that Atom, who has the room in his name, is not stuck carrying a bill for the full room. And if people absolutely object to (or want to be) in/next to the party room for sleeping we need to know asap so we can reshuffle room assignments.
Here is how I envision this working out...
The two back rooms of the suite will *NOT* be open for the party, they will be the private sleeping areas for those sleeping in the room. There will be no splitting off for the beer tasting, etc. as in previous years. We will keep everything to the main room. This should allow some amount of quiet and privacy for the people sleeping in those areas.
We will get extra keys for the main party room - this will allow the party to be (mostly) accessible at all hours. Im not sure if we can get the 30 or so keys we'd need for everyone, but we could easily get 15 or so to distribute around.
Napkin math for the suite means that if divided evenly between all attendees who are not staying in the suite that we'd all owe in $70 to cover the shortfall for the weekend.
$750/night for the suite minus $140 a night for the double, then multiplied by three nights and divided by the current count of attendees minus four people who are staying in the room.
If anyone would like to make a special contribution above that, please let me and Atom know via PM or email - we will need to get to roughly $1830 total to cover all the overages.
There will be a meeting this Thursday 4/28 at 8pm CST to discuss this and shuffling the rooms further. It is very important that you attend this meeting if possible.

Please review - we need contributions to belay the cost of the suite, if you can please add in a contribution. If we do not meet the goal everyone else attending the con will be assessed whatever is leftover or you will not be allowed into events / the party
SOME EDITS HAVE BEEN MADE TO THE ROOMS, PLEASE REVIEW YOUR ASSIGNMENT
RE: ACEN 2016 | May 20-22 - VeraLapsa - 05-02-2016
Once I get paid here in a few days I'll contribute. Also could we get the phone numbers or email address of the room holders on the spread sheet, I'd like to give my share to Rose Sprite before the con if possible.
I'm in for the pub crawl and H house.
RE: ACEN 2016 | May 20-22 - Luinbariel - 05-03-2016
There, have some dollars. Sorry it isn't much. I don't have a ton at the moment.
RE: ACEN 2016 | May 20-22 - Pixels - 05-15-2016
Just one more week until ACen!! Can you feel it??!?!?
Also because I've been out of the loop, can anyone update me on the badge situation? I'm coming Friday around 2 so when and where would be the best time to grab my badge?

I put my cell # on the spreadsheet, we can figure something out.
I just realized I hecked up and got my plane flight for Wednesday night when I don't have my room until Thursday, will there be someplace I can stay Wed night?
