CALLING ALL EAST-COASTERS (and Nejin and Red)

[Chocofreak13]

kk, so last weekend of july people! SAVE THE DATE~~~

[Lt. Surge]

It would be interesting...

Is there a limit to how many people can come? Or is someone driving a bus or something from MA lol?

[NejinOniwa]

End of July is quite nice for me, since I won't be all jetlagged and screwed up for my brother's wedding...

And that adds another item to our list of infos.

How long will the trip be? What are the exact dates of the trip?
How much will I be expected to kick in for travel/lodging/ticket expenses?
Any idea where we'd stay?
Would we be taking a car or traveling by bus?
Is there a limit to how many people can join in on this trip from MA/NH?

Minion, would you mind clarifying everything that's all set for us?

[Chocofreak13]

NO LIMITS ON HOW MANY PEOPLE CAN COME. WE'LL FIND A WAY.

THE DATES FOR OTACON ARE JULY 28-31, PEOPLE.

MY FRIEND RUSSELL HAS VOLUNTEERED TO TAKE US TO OTACON, PROVIDED EVERYONE CHIP IN FOR HOTEL AND GAS MONEY.

WE WILL MOST LIKELY STAY AT A MARIOTT.

WE WILL GET 1 ROOM. I REALIZE THIS WILL PROVIDE SOME SPACE CONSTRAINTS, BUT DUE TO COST-CUTTING, IT IS NESSACARY. PLEASE REMEMBER WE HAVE PEOPLE COMING LONG DISTANCE.

I FIGURE WE'D CHECK IN THE 27TH, LEAVE THE 31ST.

PRE-REGISTRATION IS NOT YET AVAILABLE FOR OTAKON 2011. HOWEVER, I WILL CHECK BACK PERIODICALLY AND LET YOU KNOW WHEN IT IS. (MAKES A GREAT HOLIDAY GIFT!!)

EDIT: AT LAST COUNT THE FOLLOWING PEOPLE WERE ATTENDING

CHOCOFREAK13
NEJINONIWA
STEWARTSAGE
RED-MACHINE
BELLA
PIZZA DRILL
RUSSELL

PLEASE KEEP ME POSTED ON ATTENDANCE.

THAT IS ALL.

[NejinOniwa]

ONE ROOM
AT LEAST 7 HARDCORE GEEK/OTAKU MULTICLASSERS
NO ITEMS
FINAL DESTINATION

This is gonna be an epic melee. ;W;
(we might need a leash for Russell -w-; )

[Lt. Surge]

Big chance my girlfriend and I can come, but we might end up getting our own room. idk

But if we hop on, we will be paying for gas money.

I would also be bringing a protable gas burner/cooking quipment, so...

[Lt. Surge]

btw, what's the official site?

http://www.google.com/#hl=en&q=otacon&aq=f&aqi=g10&aql=&oq=&gs_rfai=&fp=f9519659d5d079d0 ?

[Chocofreak13]

official site is www.otakon.com .

and getting your own room is perfectly fine, as long as you pay for it.

you pay for what you get. that means that if you're riding with us, you chip in for gas. same goes for room.

and yes nej, this is destined to be epic. ^^

[stewartsage]

*puts on sunglasses* Hit it.

[Chocofreak13]

HO YEAH. *hip-bumps jukebox fonzie style*rock around the clock tonite starts playing* eeeyyy! *finger snap*

[Lt. Surge]

Aah

k, well I forgot my girlfriend doesn't trust people from the internets  ;015 it is understandable but I doubt I will be able to come... unless I can convince her somehow.

Perhaps I could donate a little money in case it is desperately needed.

[NejinOniwa]

Untrusting to the denizens of the honorable Inter Net? I dare say! How can she!?

[Chocofreak13]

;____; Well you can come solo if she decides to be a shut in. :[

[Lt. Surge]

^___^;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;

Let's just say you would have a hard time convincing her that's a good idea.

I will ask her again the beginning of next year to see if she might change her mind.

What OS-kun should I be?

[Bella]

I really want to go, but there's still a ton of variables that will have to be fulfilled in order for everything to work. -.-

When we talk about "chipping in," how much money do we speak of?

And also, what's all this about registration and stuff-- do you have to buy membership in advance? And what are the payment options? (I don't have a credit card, so online shopping is a pain. >>)
