It says the public hours for Saturday are until 8 PM. 8 PM!!! I have a feeling if there are going to be any late-night shenanigans, it's probably not going to be in the NA room.. If that's the case, I think it would be a good idea if we try to get at least a couple adjacent hotel rooms.

I'm going to do my best to make this in person. It's only an hour from Chicago. Damn Wisconsin got me for 2 back to back weekends.
One for the TecmoBowl championships, and now this retro fest.
Goddamnit!

I can agree on that. Although it wasn't so bad because the weather was pretty agreeable. So I could see rain and heat making it crappy.
 
That time of year it doesn't really matter what kind of weather, you're going to have condensation dripping on your tables from the tent roof if you're near the middle.  

Had the joy of experiencing that shit first hand a couple years ago.

 

That effing sucked. Damaged some of my stuff but nothing major.

It was enough of a headache to keep me away last year.

I look forward to seeing everyone and also checking out how the new venue will go in comparison to the days of old. Is someone going to send around which room you all are going to be in?

Coming.

Purchased my flight, got my hotel room, emailed Dan and offered to volunteer. Arrive Thursday afternoon, leave Monday morning. Just me, ready to party.

-------------------------

My best friend's sister's boyfriend's brother's girlfriend heard from this guy who knows this kid who's going with the girl who saw Ferris pass out at the Let's Play Gaming Expo last night. I guess it's pretty serious.

Oh, my WTB thread is very popular. The sportos, the motorheads, geeks, sluts, bloods, wastoids, dweebies, Richard craniums - they all adore it. They think it's a righteous thread.
I'd also like to add that I've got my father's gun and a *scorching* price guide for aftermarket Nintendo games.
Between Dragon Warriors and nothing... I'll take Dragon Warriors - for any of my FT/FS/FO items.

Getting closer already. We are coming to town on Wednesday and I am going to help on Thursday with whatever they find for me to do to help set up.
