Lethys Posted January 15, 2017 Share Posted January 15, 2017 Where exactly would it be held? I live in Florida and would love to make a drive to wherever for this!Well, wherever the most people want it to be? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ATMLVE Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 This sounds cool but I definitely couldn't unless it was super close, which given that all of the options are about 600 miles away, seems highly unlikely! The list is definitely missing a northeast option. Good luck though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yamamushi Posted January 16, 2017 Author Share Posted January 16, 2017 I had Boston on the list but I took it down because nobody was voting for it, I also have Cleveland there too. I'd even be down for NYC, although that seems like it would be even more prohibitively expensive for all of us. I'm surprised Phoenix got so many votes because I don't think any of us are actually in Phoenix Dallas made the most sense logistically to me because it's a major air travel hub, although the cost of staying somewhere versus somewhere like Austin or Phoenix is probably something to take into account as well. There's no real rush to any of this, it probably wouldn't happen until June because many more people will be available during the summer, and it's cheaper than going to E3.

I've never really noticed a huge price difference between hotels in Austin TX and Dallas TX; however that being said, the way to get the cost of that down is to see if you can arrange a room block deal with the hotel. Basically if you can (roughly) grantee that you can fill X number of rooms they'll reduce the cost of those rooms for you. Here's some basic info on it (yes its for wedding planning, but the information is still relevant): https://www.theknot.com/content/hotel-room-blocks-101 For a smaller gathering I'd stick with a smaller hotel in one of the suburbs, they're going to be more accommodating for something like this.

Trogidy Posted March 9, 2017 Share Posted March 9, 2017 I'll go find a nice corner to sit in and not talk to anyone and long for my moonshack and spacetruck. Then go home to my real shack in my real truck and think about what a good day it was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
