What Anne said. I'd be happy to throw Madison in the mix for this year's F2F.
I just think you're freakin' out 'cause you have to fight someone prettier than you.

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.

The status is NOT quo.
Yippee!
Okay, here's a modification of vw's jumpstart post last year:
Things we need to decide:
When? Range for possible weekends (defined by Saturday): March 22, March 29, April 5, April 12, April 19, April 26, May 3, May 10, May 17, May 24, May 31, June 7, June 14, June 21, June 28.
Where? (All nominations should have a contact person (preferably local))
Where 2? Hotel/Prom location (trying to keep close to $100)
---
For pimping, I suggest the following format:
MY CITY PIMPAGE
Why here? Description of why your town/city rocks like a rocking thing. Past pimpage has included weather, links to fun events/museums/things to do, etc.
Initial Hotel/Prom Possibilities A few hotels you've looked into so far with tentative group rates and Prom locations/catering/bar/closeness to hotel, etc.
---
Several of us have handled hotel reservations in the past for Buffistas, so feel to ask if you need further clarification. I did NOLA and still have that schtuff somewhere.

I will put together a proposal for KC, but my acting as point for this is contingent on a mid-late June date. I got Prom, graduation (very Buffy comittments, eh?) and then a wedding.
For starters, tho, I THINK I could arrange Prom in the basement/club of a nice little gay bar that plays host to the local BDSM scenes monthly meetings. Cheap drinks, nice mixed clientele, sweet owner, and nothing we could wear would merit an astonished look.
39th street strip could provide a two block strip so that everyone could go en masse, and then decide where to eat: Cajun, Indian, Mongolian BBQ, sushi, dumplings, Vietnamese, Italian, and there's a liquor store and cigar/cig store I patronize with a pleasant musician owner.
Bus system is not excellent, but doable, and cabs are pretty cheap if you group it.
Excellent BBQ and jazz opps.
I could score us some cheap cases o' wine.
And there's me! Organizer of F2F #1!!!

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
Minneapolis and Nashville have also been floated as possibilities.

This sounds like a challenge.

Woot! I didn't get to go to the first two F2Fs, but I've heard great things about Erin's mad planning skillz.

I knew that camcorder was a good investment.
