Vortex, do you have the info for Hubs?

F2F 2: Is there anybody here that hasn't slept together?
Plan what to do, what to wear (you can never go wrong with a corset), and get ready for the next BuffistaCon: New Orleans! May 20-22, 2005!
Another option for nametags, if Teppy can't get a good list in advance, is to have tags and sharpies at the hotel....wait, logistically everyone will be arriving at different times, huh. I guess we could all make and bring our own.

I think having some blank nametags (and Sharpies) in the hospitality suite would be a good idea anyway, for people who don't get their info to Tep on time.
Ok, now I'm thoroughly confuzzled. Are we supposed to be sending info to Vortex, Java Cat or Teppy? What info? For what purpose?
billytea, Vortex was collecting a list of people's names (true and screen), contact numbers, and arrival/departure information to make sure that all attendees had transport to and from the hotel and that everyone will be contactable. But she's been out-of-pocket, so JavaCat took over The List.
Teppy offered to make nametags, and to do that she needs screen names and what we want to be called in person.
Huh, I think I may have used every verb tense in this post.

Would it be easier to have people e-mail me directly? Versus funneling the info through Vortex and/or Java?
Heh, clearly my working on lists is not going to be helpful ... nebbermind my previous post.
I just realized that a) one week from right now I will already be on the East Coast, and sort of on my way to the F2F, and b) this actually made me happy. Go F2F.
Wow, it's going to be so soon!
I'm kind of for just having sharpies and blank nametags on a table, with instructions to print! clearly! and write either/both one's board name or/and one's real name, depending on what one is comfortable being called.
DX said,
There are a lot of first time F2Fers on the list, including many for whom we've never seen pictures
-- it occurs to me that perhaps it would be a good idea to make a little temporary attendees-of-the-F2F3 picture-gallery so that we can all get a bit of familiarity with one another's faces before meeting?
This would be different from the actual Buffista Photo Gallery in that 1) it would only represent people who will be coming to DC, and 2) it can self-destruct after the F2F if people so desire. I'll host and code if people email their photos to me.
sharpies and blank nametags
Given the timeframe, this may be the best option. I want to point out (probably needlessly) that the clip/pin-on kind would last all weekend, as opposed to the sticky kind.
I'm confused, too. If Java has Vortex's list, she should have all my info and amyth's as well. I can send it again, I guess it's no big.
