Mal: Yeah, well, just be careful. We cheated Badger out of good money to buy that frippery, and you're supposed to make me look respectable. Kaylee: Yes, sir, Captain Tightpants.

F2F5: I forget that everyone isn't us

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

The status is NOT quo.

So Brenda, do you suggest we eliminate all weekends that conflict for the three cities? I honestly don't care if we vote date first if that is what everyone prefers. I just was concerned that most people picked dates on that poll that sound like they will be eliminated because of hotel conflicts in one city. Cost and such are my biggest concerns too, so I hear you.

I would probably not eliminate, actually - if the conflict is big enough to impact us that'll show up in the bids pretty quickly.

So if we start with three dates and we end up

NYC: Prohibitive
Reasonable
Prohibitive

Philly: Prohibitive
Reasonable
Reasonable

Providence: Reasonable
Prohibitive
Reasonable

Well, that gives us some good data anyway.

An alternative if people don't want to argue with hotels is if we have some hotels in mind, do like an Orbitz gut check of those weekends and see if that rules some out.

Most big cities have something going on most weekends - barring a SuperBowl, it's hard to know how much they'll really impact us.

I agree with that. So an official survey of dates? Are we ready, people?

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

Being someone that fled the humity and the cold -- I will say the best thing about a city is that there are lots of building to duck into Except, oddly , in Charleston.

Not sure if I can go this year but I do know some dates that are impossible - so lets do some dates!

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Kristin, I really appreciate what you're doing. And many thanks to the pimpers.

Let's do it!

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

When is the survey open until?

We should probably put that in press.

Next year is mid right? Does Denver qualify? Just wondering if I should pay attention so I can make y'all come to me next year.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

Because I am a crazy person, I was thinking that it might be a good idea to choose dates and place for next year as soon as we're done setting this year up so that we don't put it off until the last minute.
