ACEN 2012 - Electric Bogaloo, Final Countdown & Planning

2 buck chuck??? which is $3 now I think...


And if people are willing to drink cheap wine, will they drink....Everclear?

If all you're trying to do is suffer alcohol poisoning, Everclear is probably your cheapest option.

Mmmm alcohol poisoning...
I've never had it but I heard Everclear is indeed brutal.

I'll be going shopping next weekend and will update what I'm bringing then. Pickles are back on my shopping list because what is a few extra pounds of stuff? It's going to be sitting on a bus anyways.

[Dtrain323i]

I'm bringing Moonshine, Jameson/Bushmills, decent wine (Francis Ford Coppola Cab), and Tequila

[/quote]It's literally just ethanol with a tiny splash of water. 190 proof means 95% ethanol, 3x stronger than 'hard' liquor. There's no flavor to it other than burnination, because the whole point is to get it as pure as possible. Main use is as firebreathing fuel (seriously it's got a flameguard on the bottle to keep it from detonating near flame). I'm not going to discourage you from trying it, but you won't like it.

[/quote]Every bottle of Everclear or Bacardi 151 I've ever seen has had a metal grid on it to keep fire out of the bottle. Maybe they do it different in Canada.

[HeK]

Bought mine in North Dakota....

[A. Crow]

I just looked on my credit card statement... the hotel has already billed me, this happen for anyone else?

Yeah, they charged one night as a deposit April 8th, I believe. If you cancel now, that's nonrefundable.

[Evil Cheese]

I'm bringing apple pie moonshine, gin + tonic, rum, Jameson (probably something to mix it with as well), Midori, and some good beer that I haven't decided on yet.

[at0m]

PMs sent with totals to my roomies. Link shared for contact info, as well.

That's what I was planning to bring to mix with Jameson.

[[fr31ns]Karrde]

Mixing anything in Whiskey is the work of satan.

[at0m]

At a minimum, I'll be bringing coke and liquid lime, but I probably won't have enough to share beyond mixing it with my booze.

[Eightball]

Mmm, here's what I have to share.

• Bottle of cheap wine
  
• 2L of Pepsi
  
• Enormous bag of tortilla chips and some salsa
  
• Enormous bag of assorted popcorn
  
• About 40 trail mix bars
  
• Some fruit leathers
  
• Some weird muffin snack things I don't know
  
• Paper towels (enough for whole con)
  
• Garbage bags (enough for whole con)
  
• Plastic cups (NOT enough for whole con)
  
• Paper plates
  

This is all communal (I have a separate care package for anyone in the Normandy). It's all packed in a sealed Costco bag, which I'll probably dump this in the main party room on day 1.

14 days.

[kaese]

I definitely have plastic cups leftover from the various cons I've attended in the past so I'll bring those. I'll bring a sharpie as well so we can write our names on cups.
