Quote:7:00 â Meeting opening, quick outline: Events, drinks, why donât we have more people in mumble? more info to be edited in later Re: ACEN 2014 Final countdown MEGATHREAD (meeting minutes, booze, arrivals) - zaneyard - 04-26-2014 my thursday final got moved to tuesday, so I will be arriving ASAP on thursday. I'll be available to help anyone unload. I will likely be unable to bring any booze with me because I have a new bike and my top case takes up my pillion. I will, however, be able to purchase booze after arrival. Re: ACEN 2014 Final countdown MEGATHREAD (meeting minutes, booze, arrivals) - Neptune - 04-26-2014 Count me and my wife for dinner on Fri. Don't know when we're arriving in Chicago, yet. Have to pick up Sogo on the way. How will I get into the room if no one can remember what I look like?

The party room? I remember what you look like Also I edited eightball's post, make sure you reply here with what you plan to bring for party consumption... I am bringing - Beer, Pipeworks & Revolution - Scotch (Islay) Re: ACEN 2014 Final countdown MEGATHREAD (meeting minutes, booze, arrivals) - Eightball - 04-26-2014 (04-26-2014, 12:05 AM)zaneyard link Wrote: my thursday final got moved to tuesday, so I will be arriving ASAP on thursday.

Re: ACEN 2014 Final countdown MEGATHREAD (meeting minutes, booze, arrivals) - TronPaul - 04-26-2014 What I'll be bringing
I'll also be bringing snack food for the party. I plan on getting in with Caff on Thursday.

Also, I might get lucky and have more room in my case than I need and be able to bring something after all. Re: ACEN 2014 Final countdown MEGATHREAD (meeting minutes, booze, arrivals) - Versus - 04-26-2014 hopefully i'll arrive around 3 is anyone else taking a fairly late flight out? my departure on sunday isn't until 8:45pm because the only other departure times that don't add another 50% to the total roundtrip cost are like 8am/10am and fuck that Re: ACEN 2014 Final countdown MEGATHREAD (meeting minutes, booze, arrivals) - CaffeinePowered - 04-26-2014 (04-26-2014, 10:18 AM)versus link Wrote: hopefully i'll arrive around 3 Last year post con a bunch of us went to Wicker Park to get food...probably this year it will be food + drink and/or chill at my place since my apartment won't be undergoing rehab after a flood Re: ACEN 2014 Final countdown MEGATHREAD (meeting minutes, booze, arrivals) - Sogo - 04-26-2014 Since I'm coming in with Nep, count me in for the dinner on friday too. Re: ACEN 2014 Final countdown MEGATHREAD (meeting minutes, booze, arrivals) - Live-Free-Or-Pie - 04-26-2014 Expected arrival: 4:30 pm. Thursday (Plane arrives 3:48 p.m.) Planned booze: Handle of Rum (probably Malibu) & vodka Re: ACEN 2014 Final countdown MEGATHREAD (meeting minutes, booze, arrivals) - TOH - 04-26-2014 As I mentioned in the Mumble convo, if my pledge for the community fund isn't used, please put it towards booze, food, whatever. So I'll pay you for something no matter what, Eightball. Re: ACEN 2014 Final countdown MEGATHREAD (meeting minutes, booze, arrivals) - Evil Cheese - 04-26-2014 Booze List:
I'm definitely still in for pizza on Friday. Unfortunately the 8:00 Second City show for Thursday, Friday, and Saturday are all sold out now so I think I missed my chance for this year since it will probably be a pain in the ass to duck out for the 11:00 show. I think I'm gonna push harder for it next year if I can go. Re: ACEN 2014 Final countdown MEGATHREAD (meeting minutes, booze, arrivals) - If-I-Die-Its-Lag - 04-27-2014 I might be there at around 5:00 pm If someone is willing to buy any booze on my behalf, I can pay. It doesn't manner to me what kind, as long as it is under a $20 budget. Just confront me about it. Re: ACEN 2014 Final countdown MEGATHREAD (meeting minutes, booze, arrivals) - CaffeinePowered - 04-27-2014 (04-27-2014, 04:07 AM)If-I-Die-Its-LAG! link Wrote: I might be there at around 5:00 pm Eightball already offered to make a run on his way driving down, message him about it for purchases. Re: ACEN 2014 Final countdown MEGATHREAD (meeting minutes, booze, arrivals) - Neptune - 04-27-2014 My carload is expected in tentatively at 7pm. Kat will make a better educated guess when she gets back from Zenkaikon. Re: ACEN 2014 Final countdown MEGATHREAD (meeting minutes, booze, arrivals) - The Generic Name - 04-27-2014 count me in for dinner friday plz Re: ACEN 2014 Final countdown MEGATHREAD (meeting minutes, booze, arrivals) - TOH - 04-28-2014 Expected arrival: Thursday around noon. And just in case, I'll re-confirm I'm in for the Barcade trip on Thursday and the Chicago dinner on Friday. Re: ACEN 2014 Final countdown MEGATHREAD (meeting minutes, booze, arrivals) - Eightball - 04-28-2014 Updated OP with the link to room assignments. Everyone that has RSVP'd in this thread (Neptune, Sogo, Cheese, Generic, TOH, Versus) is confirmed for Friday dinner. I will try to get in touch with a few others (pie, lag, zane, serain, kase, pixels, negate, koala). Reservation is currently for 18-20 and will probably stay that way. For beer, I'll try to bring a bunch of WI stuff: New Glarus, Milwaukee Brewing Co, Lakefront. Some liquor and mixers. Cups. Tea. Re: ACEN 2014 Final countdown MEGATHREAD (meeting minutes, booze, arrivals) - kaese - 04-29-2014 **for the room assignments, Caff said Kaim and I were going to be in his room for Thusday night? pls don't forget? haha My room is bringing WI beer/cider as well (and cups if we need any? maybe I'll bring snacks). Pixels is underage (!!! achtung) so she's bringing soda. Pixels arriving Fri morning. Kaim arriving around 11am Thursday. I am arriving sometime before barcade Thursday and will be attending barcade. Probably no Friday dinner at the pizza place because I'm not really feeling pizza you know? Also the FF concert time might clash if I manage to get a ticket. |
