Anyone get their badge yet? I know they said that they'd mail them all right after the 1st.

So how many beds are we getting for our VIP suite? I can only assume that there won't be enough room for 10 people?
Was looking at getting something like this for this sort of thing and motocamping and shit

but I don't want to blow 230 on it. Anyone know of anything that is comparable?
Or maybe an inflatable mattress or something?
karrde I know you brought something last year.
I don't feel like sleeping on shitty couch again.
Cot General?

Cot is best for sleeping outdoors to keep the bugs off. Indoors, you can get away with one of the blue foam 'sleeping pads' underneath a warm-weather sleeping bag. Those start being good at $30 and up.

Well I could use a new sleeping bag as well so I might be checking that out. I just can't seem to get to sleep laying on my back so I need to lay on something a little less hard than the ground. Foam pad might be enough for me.

check out Cabelas. They have sleeping bags there for a decent enough price

We have a gander mountain 20 minutes from here that I was going to go check out sometime. I wish there were more reviews on cabelas site though.

So after pretty much the entire afternoon of researching and reading reviews, I went ahead and ordered the ALPS Mountaineering Comfort Series Air Pad and the Thermarest Compressible Pillow. Had some amazon rewards points to burn so I didn't really pay much for all this. I can always combine this with a sleeping back and a cot (and obviously a tent) to have a pretty nice outdoor setup as well.
I opted to not purchase a sleeping bag right now because I already have a cheapo one from when I was a kid that I can use as a blanket/pad. I might be interested in investing in a nicer bag at sometime, as I have a slight interest in motocamping.

Badges are here. I wonder if that code is important and shouldn't be posted or shared.

Re: ACEN 2013 Travel & Accommodations Thread - kaese - 04-10-2013
Acen doesn't want them posted because people make fake badges. Im going to post mine anyways.

The QR code brings up a link to the Acen website, likely your account details.
No idea what the text string is.
