Nashville's come up in the past - is that central? Milwaukee's also an option, as is a return to Chicago.

F2F 4: Too Much Candy, Never Enough Mojitos.
Plan what to do, what to wear (you can never go wrong with a corset), and get ready for the next BuffistaCon: Madison, WI from June 20-22 2008! Official website.
I've got a brother in Memphis, so I'd have additional incentive if someone were to pimp that, but I've heard that's not a particularly good walking city. Granted, I heard that about Atlanta too, and where we were for the F2F worked out just fine.
I could look into some possibilities. Some new downtown hotels have opened up since 2005. If we kept everything central to downtown, it'd just be two cab- or rental car-rides for each person flying in.
I don't mind Memphis, it is the Place 'O Matt.
brenda, Nashville was nominated last time the central's turn came around. As was Toronto.
Kansas City: walkable, cheap, jazz, steaks
Nashville, Toronto, and Minneapolis were all nominated last time. I am pro all of those cities. I am also pro-Madison.
I am NSM on the Dells.
I am Hell No on the Dells. Sorry. All of the downsides of overbuilt, overhyped family tourist traps, with none of that pesky convenience to anywhere you might actually be coming from.
But... but... but... they have a UFO museum.
But actually, not a good idea for the reasons brenda said.
Madison would be awesome. It's a beautiful city.
I want it on the record that The Dells was a completely facetious suggestion based on a recent MST viewing.
I was completely serious about Attica though.

Isn't the Dells within a (relatively) short drive north of Madison? Maybe if anyone sticks around an extra day after the F2F, we can have a road trip up there, just to see the tackiness that is The Dells.
I'd love it if it was in Madison, as well!
