The OmniCon

[PepsiWhirda]

I might not be able to ~stay the night~ that week but I can definitely try and swing thru

That would be awesome.  Wouldn't expect any $$$ from you in that case!

Pretty neat idea, and I'd like to come if I can, but I can't promise right away due to work schedule being pretty packed during the summer.

I'd be coming from the south if I made it up there, and I'd offer to drive for a few of our Georgia boys since that's an easy pickup for me, and help with the gas would be awesome. Give it a few more years and I might manage to have the slice of land to host the thing, but that'll have to wait until OmniCon 4 or 5.

Other than putting some miles on my truck, I can pitch in for cheap alcohol and mixers, plus I could cook like a massive chicken bog on day one to get us through the weekend with minimal food concerns. More of a lunch thing than a supper thing, where we might want to do something a little nicer, but I could easily fill the fridge with leftovers and still send some home with people afterwards for really cheap. Good to grill burgers or whatever else budget permits at night.

I'll check my schedule!

EDIT: This is assuming I don't despise you all after DA ends.

Well you'll certainly despise me if we run into each other during DA, but if we can squash the beef it'd be great to have you.  Just try to confirm ASAP as I'm going to have to book the place sooner rather than later.

West Virginia in August actually sounds extremely doable for me. So I'm in, just gotta let work know as soon as we're totally sure this is gonna happen and isn't just 90% hype.

EDIT: Also I don't mind throwing in extra cash to get some other friendly friends involved!

With you, me, Trixie, Strazio, Drake, and Alex that makes six.  I'm willing to book if we can hit the threshold of eight definite attendees.  Let's see what the next couple days bring.

Further to all this, Mark can you post in the RSVP thread so I can keep you in the head count?  And Spur do the same when/if you can confirm?
