ACEN 2013 - The next chapter (May 17 - 19th)

[Dtrain323i]

I missed the meeting but I'd like to mention that I've finally received my badge in the mail, tickets are booked, cosplay is almost ready, and booze... well, I have too much of that already. I'm definitely interested in doing touristy stuff. I'm glad we're not doing catering again, as that as a major disaster last time. FML.

Are we going to arrange some groups of people who are going to do certain things? AKA pizza on saturday group, tourist group, etc? I don't want anyone to be lost and confused as to what is going to happen, though I suppose it's just going to be up in the air like last year.

I'm willing to go into the city for touristy stuff. We just have to plan it around panels and photoshoots

[Eightball]

I've made a guidebook, I'll send out download codes once I've gotten used to the system and got it polished. Chicago convoy, parties, important photoshoots should all be in there.

Also, we're getting pretty close to our goal of getting our last-minute recipient to ACEN. 7 people have donated so far, but we could use help from anyone and everyone. Please contact me if you want to contribute; it's a community effort!

Welp.

Drunk me will be there

We're something like $25 away from our goal. Just one more donor....

Also, for the BRBU guidebook, I'm putting together a member directory, so when the feds are getting me to narc on you anyone needs it, anyone with the app should be able to contact anyone. If you're willing to be on it, send me (preferably through PM, but steam too) your: Full name, phone number, and anticipated arrival time. Feel free to leave any of these out if you want.

Also, please forward me events that you think are of enough interest to people to go into the guidebook. Rule of thumb: If you can picture three or more BRBUers going to it, send it to me!

I have no idea what I'm getting myself into but seeing as how I like alcohol I might be interested.

There's a bar downtown in the Rogers Park area called Red Line Tap that was recommended to me. None of the acts they're hosting that weekend look very interesting, but I'd like to drop in for a bit anyway. If we get another pizza or whatever group downtown one night I'd like to check it out if anyone else would be interested.

Heh just looked it up. It's about a mile from where I used to live when I was younger.

I also looked up directions from the hotel. It's gonna be a PITA to get there via train (Have to go into the loop to switch to the red line)
