I don't suppose April would be an option instead of May...? Or is May in particular desirable for some? (Not at all trying to be snarky, honestly asking).
You know, it's funny. We went to war never looking to come back, but it's the real world I couldn't survive.

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

Shit's all sorts of different now.
May was the tradition b/c it happened after the final airing of BtVS and AtS so we could all OMGWTFSPIKEGOTASOUL! together.

Earlier, like April, is fine for me since it's closer to tax return / bonus money being available for use. My only concern would be the "it's too cold" issues, depending on location.
Mid-May just seemed obvious since we've used it before and had teachers / parents attend.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
What Aims said. The first F2F was planned for the week after the BtVS season finale. Other scheduling (tight for some but not impossible for too many) was a bonus or at least a not-too-badness.

Okay, just checking.

On the other hand, it's perfect for the warmer weather climes to be an option.

I'd love to see an April date as a possibility next time around—some of my best non-buffista vacations have been in the spring.

My academic schedule is such that July is usually impossible, so I'd love to see earlier dates May.

Wasn't the Atlanta F2F early May? That's my recollection, because I was sure I started my road trip in April.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
Atlanta F2F was the weekend of May 3.
