People, it's all good.

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

Woe to the fucking wicked.
Ok, then, to cut down on the natter, let's poll the group:
What should be on the "info we need" form for the city pimpers?

Mmm.. judging from past experience....
Transportation: airports into city, trains into city, transpo options within the city.
Hotels and price ranges for a block of rooms reservations.
Prom Night options: Room, bar, dinner, house party.
Sightseeing options to pimp.
Info about area/areas likely to be used by F2Fgoers.
Pimps should check for major conventions going on during the time(s) they are proposing for their city.
Localistas willing to transpo/act as comm coordinators/sightseeing guides/crash pads for broke-ass 'ffistas.
That's off the top of my head.

I don't live in Austin, but I have such a fondness for the town, I'm willing to do some research and pimpage. I don't know that we have any localistas there.

I love Austin. It's a really wonderful city.

The status is NOT quo.
I have local friends who will help me plan/pimp Austin if you want help! These friends, btw, are Buffistas. They just don't know it yet.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
Erin raises an interesting question. For hotels and prom, do we want options within a city or just "here's the best option I could find."

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
I say "here's the best option I could find".
1) it is simpler
2) you can pick a vision and run with it
Then again, maybe we don't make that a "rule". A nice bid could really be constructed either way.
