Alright here's is the final tally of attendees and room "assignments" and I use the term loosely because people can float to others at their leisure if they so wish. Now the one thing I would like to flat out say is that Pie still has the aux room at the other hotel, he can cancel this up until the day before the con, so if anyone wants this room please contact Pie, the pros are it will be a fuck ton more quiet and private, the cons is that its a one block walk and a train stop away. (Trains run 24/7)

Room #1 - Caffeine - Party Cat Room
1) Caffeine
2) Eightball
3) Karrde
4) Marina
5) GreatBacon (Friday)

Room #2 - Backfire
1) Backfire
2) Coleit
3) Zaius
4) Versus

Room #3 - Atomsmasher/Pie
1) Atom (Leaving Saturday)
2) EvilCheese
3) LiveFreeOrPie (Will take over the room after Atom Leaves)
4) Dtrain
5) GreatBacon (Sat??)

Room #4 - Auxillary - LiveFreeOrPie - Off Site

For those of you doing a TF2 costume, we will be doing two scheduled events:

Friday - 2pm until ??? - Walk Around
- We're going to get together and as a group walk around the con, likely to the dealers area, maybe the game room, maybe a pannel, but the point of this is basically just to get noticed, if you walk around individually you might get stopped for a pic here and there, but as a group, a full team none the less, we will get stopped....a lot. Time will likely be limited by how long I can stay in the pyro costume, you try breathing through a gas mask for hours on end while carrying a heavy prop  :-*

Get to know this pose, we will be doing it a lot

Also, does anyone have a decent quality cam corder? Or a camera that can also take movies - I think we should enter #11 here, fuck all if they think it should be an ingame demo. 60 seconds is the max length if you think you have a good idea discuss below, IMO should incorporate the pose above at the end.


Saturday - 5pm (?) - Orange Box Photo Shoot
- Sans Atom (I am never forgiving your sister), there will be a photoshoot, which is basically where all of the people doing a certain costume theme go and take photos together, will last maybe an hour at most



Other Events:

I Can't Think of a Clever Pun so Ill let Mike Nelson Do it - Friday Night
- I'm thinking a chill party for Friday, probably put up MST3K with my laptop (if anyone can bring a large monitor let me know, hotel TVs usually lack connectors)
- Remember to ask Eightball where the demos are, constantly
- Come and go as you please if you want to go to any late night panels (versus is hosting a loli guro one) or the foam/bubble dance
- Possibly 2am or later Mechwarrior, that shits open 24/7


Party Cat - Saturday Night
- If there is booze left over afterwards I will be disappoint in brbu



General Party Time Rules:
- Invitations are encouraged, but please, no shady people, if they so much as look shady Karrde, Eightball, and I reserve the right to deny them entry
- No one gets in unless they can directly name someone in our group, if they say "oh my friends in there" - tough shit
- If someone is at the door (and not in our group) and you know who it is get Karrde/Eightball/Myself to let them in
- Door is to remain closed at all times
- If they aren't someone you know personally or in our group, they get carded
- Mark Everyone's hands (see above)
- If you can't hold your liquor go back to your room
- No 4/20, not because I hate pot or anything, but if say, the balcony above gets a whiff and calls the front desk, we are all fucked, if you want a smoke break go to your car or the woods or something
- Keep a "moderate" noise level later into the night, I can guarantee the con will be visited by cops and/or whambulance at least once, and I'd rather not be on that list.
- Alternate drinking water if you don't know your limits


This comes from 4 years of living at a frat house filled with a mix of people that didn't know how to handle drinking and who could handle it very well. Likely Karrde and I will end up on Mom patrol, just don't do anything stupid.
I'm not costuming, but i'm bringing a camera to document the weekend. I'll see what I can do about a video camera but I'm not making any promises.

Oh I forgot to note, for food, I recommend bringing something to snack on, because there's really no restaurants to walk to at night, and fat chance at getting your parking places back.

If you are not the credit card on the room, you can park at a garage across from the convention center a block away, its like $10 a day if you are driving in, but there's no in/out privileges

the hotel itself doesn't have a parking lot?

It does, but if you aren't the credit card on the room, its obscene, and you still have to pay some nominal fee, even if you have a room

Demoman holding TNT. Weird rocket launcher.

Sad who do i smoke with?
Rocket launcher only had a odd shaped end, Demoman still blows shit up with stickys, but the scout completely has no automatic weapons in the game, and it's weird because the sniper get's it.
Maybe next time.

Ah the days before pistols fired rapidly by default...

Ah the days before of using a script to turn it into a semi-auto anyways...
I hope you're all walking around in TF2 cosplays on Sat too so I can get some photos. Do eet please.
I've never been to the acen masquerades so I'm wondering if it's worth missing out on (in exchange for attending the valve photoshoot; though I find most photoshoots to be awkward) since it's at 6pm.

So excite to see these awesome cosplays
I didn't even know this was happening, and now I'm pissed I'm missing it.  

I expect epic photography.  

Also,

That'd be better anyways since I'm only gunna have my sandman.
I can't wait to go to this con and meet with you guys, gotta admit though I am nervous.
Edit: Also Caff should the shortstop be expected?
I have a camera that takes movies.  Won't be super epic quality, but there will be motion and sound so it beats a slideshow.
