Wow, you've really mastered the power of positive giving-up.

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.

OK, so the final proposal looked like this:

October will be our official pimp-n-post phase for the coming year's F2F. During each October, people may propose a location in the appropriate region of the country based on our normal rotation, pimp its fine qualities, research possible venues for hotel rooms/prom (preferably the same venue for both or within walking distance), and suggest up to two possible dates in spring/summer for our official annual F2F. The date(s) for each location are completely up to the pimp-er's discretion.

At the beginning of November, we will vote on the proposed location/date combo. If the pimp-er offered more than one possible date, we will hold a second vote to pick a final date for the winner. Once the date and venue has been set, the pimp-er will book the hotel so we can begin the process of raising the necessary money and making necessary investments in tickets, corsets, and sparkly tiaras.

Since we have already missed this deadline for the 2011 F2F, we will do pimpage in November and vote at the beginning of December this year.

-----

We didn't get enough votes to make quorum (39 yay and 0 nay, but we need at least 42 votes), so I'm hoping we can BS-consense over here to just use November this year. I'll re-propose in six months if someone pokes and reminds me to do so.

I am going to pimp KC, since I'm not going to be planning a spring wedding party. I already warned D.

So I am concensing, and uh, pre-pimping? (Since I said I would pimp KC, I imagine I should get a job offer that will require me to be be out of the country all spring and summer tomorrow. If so, ok.)

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

I'm not here to pimp but to support the commencement of the pimpage process.

So, what exactly qualifies as Midwest? Would Colorado count? Texas?

I think yes on both. In the past, Austin has been mentioned as a possible Midwest place.

Yeah, I think midwest would probably include anything in the central timezone. Other place could also count, possibly (ie, Indiana might be Midwestern though it's EST) Dunno about mountain time, but possibly

An argument could be made for Colorado being West.

I have offered up Colorado before but there was great confusion as to which region it belonged in. Right now, I'm not up to pimping so it is kinda moot unless Nicole or Stephanie feel up to it. (Which would be wonderful and I'd be glad to assist, just not up to being point person.)

Is there any requirement about pimping besides getting the hotel/prom info? Not that that doesn't require effort, I'm just wondering. Personally, I can make a decision about whether X city is of interest to me on my own.

I understand why someone might want to sell it and get more votes, but I feel like people have been dissuaded from pimping at all because of a perceived need to be on the ground, have an intimate knowledge of a place, or write up 50 million things.
