Ya know, we really need to number the hugs/no hugs conversation.
I herby dub it the Annual F2F Hug Conversation. AKA Buffista Topic #4578.
I am a very tactile person and will hug anyone who likes being hugged. I will probably make the mistake of hugging a non-hugger or two; I apologize in advance. I get so excited to see people I like/love/am attracted to (hee!), that I show that excitement by hugging. It's totally a me thing, I'm just putting the disclaimer out there that I'm not trying to make anyone uncomfortable or ignoring their wishes, I'm just a very silly girl.

We need to consider room signs. At various overlapping dates from Wednesday on our room will house Me!, Brenda, Raq, Nicole, and Sail. We might need a sign: Bootyful Bodacious Buffista Babes, Hugs Welcome.
Nametags! Whoever is doing nametags should add a H with a slash throught it for the non huggers, prominently displayed in the upper right hand corner. If you're not wearing your nametag, it's your own damn fault if I hug you.
I don't think we're doing nametags this year.
Why not a simple physical code?
Rule A: If you wish to be hugged, hold out both arms.
Rule B: If you wish to have your interlocutor nibble candy (or haggis) off your neck, hold out one arm (to signal welcome) and with the other point at your throat; neck, in this instance, should be in the slightly stretched position.
Rule C: If you wish to be groped - ok, I'll leave that one up to you guys. Because the only thing that comes to mind is lifting one's skirt above one's head, and that's not fair to any would-be gropee who isn't wearing a dress or a kilt.
Rule D: If you are entirely physically off limits, wear a dead hedgehog in place of a candy necklace.
Speaking of which, do we need candy necklaces? Should I investigate?
(or haggis) off your neck
Very few things gross me out (it comes from having a younger brother with a really vivid imagination), but haggis around the neck -- that does it. Ewwwwwww.

I can bring them (it's sort of my thing, bringing the candy necklaces every year).

I can put my hands on candy bras.... (Some Buffistae have seen them. They're hilarious.)

My mind is currently occupied with the boggling.
Last year I forgot to pack the candy necklaces. I got home and had bear their angry candy gaze from my pillow where they had been stuck whilst I was stuffing things in my bag.
It probably only works with Steph there.

Yay! Sorry, love - no stepping on perogative intended. I just didn't know, is all.

But I thought people generally used their mouths to - oh. Right. Never mind.
