That does sound great, Deb. Very curious about what the flat rate might turn out to be.
I see your uhhhhhhhhhhh and raise you a gnyeh.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
That place looks a bit like DS9.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Ann, that's a ferret.
I like Jessica's idea. But next year is a little soon.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Heh.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
Are we going to vote city first or date first? Because at this point, date is more of a deciding factor than city for me
Date. Currently scheduled to start voting a week from Sunday.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
A preferred date is going to be necessary to get hard numbers; I told them it's traditionally been the third week in May. Is that right?
Yup. Though if someone found a hotel with some fabulous package deal available a couple weeks earlier or later, I'd imagine we could be flexible about that. The middle/end of May/early June can sometimes be hard for traveling: there's lots of competition for hotel rooms in college towns right around graduation, and 'istas with kids of their own (or graduation ceremonies of their own) sometimes have to miss out.
I know Hec and I lost a small handful of wedding guests due to conflicts with mid-May school plays/talent shows/little-kid graduation ceremonies that our parent and teacher friends felt they couldn't miss on pain of immediately expiring of guilt.
But YAcronymofchoiceMV -- I don't in fact know that this has ever been a big factor in the F2Fs.

I'm getting the pig!
Debet, I was thinking something along the lines of right before signing a contract with a hotel.
Yes, we'll have a decent guesstimate from the city choice poll to start negotiations with but just a quick (I'm Already Counting Down The Days - I'm Definetly There Barring Some Huge Unforeseen Expense - I'm Trying Super Hard But It's Really Iffy - Can't But Have Fun Without Me, You Jerks) poll couldn't hurt and might save some heartache down the line.
Are we going to vote city first or date first?
Date, I would hope.
