Have voted in poll - but I really can't do June. Would have to be July for me to make it. Which, from the sounds of it, may be out of the question, if it's going to be too hot/too pricey for the majority of potential attendees.
Bugger.
You know, with the exception of one deadly and unpredictable midget, this girl is the smallest cargo I've ever had to transport. Yet by far the most troublesome. Does that seem right to you?

Plan what to do, what to wear (you can never go wrong with a corset), and get ready for the next BuffistaCon.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
You do know, Fay ,that if decided to visit a couple of places in the US this summer -buffistas would appear. In fact,you might even have offers of places to stay.

I went to Tucson for a school conference, many moons ago. I loved it. It had a small town friendly vibe, and it was cooler than Phoenix at the time.

Just call me "Siouxsie Shunshine".
I was in Tuscon for a national yearbook convention while in high school. From what I remember, it was a nice place.

If it's Seattle, I strongly recommend avoiding June or earlier. You're likely to get very wet weather during those dates.
I recommend the weekends of July 11th or 18th.

Our wings are not tired.
I recommend July, too, for the plethora of Buffisteachers and BufFayesta.

Actually, Juliana, I'm really bothered by the dates in the poll. I know it lists the dates as non-binding, but having people vote for a location and then switching up the dates just seems wrong.
I don't suppose there's much that can be done, but given that one of the main talking points for having the F2F in the PNW, was that the weather would allow for a later event to allow all the teacher peeps to attend, it's a frustrating set of dates.
Sorry, being a pest. One of those "get it off my chest" moments. I was just irked by the fact that the poll required me to choose one of those dates when my answer would have been "none of the above".

We could always just run another poll?

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
I think another poll would be a good idea, choose a location first, then a date.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

I'm sorry! I was just skimming and trying to remember what dates had actually been mentioned as possibilities, and all I could remember was Later Than Memorial Day, so I threw that up there and scurried back to work. I'll re-poll.
