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!

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

And there are plenty of ways to have a great F2F.

Perzacktly. I do think that it would be nice, one of these days, to have an F2F at more of a self-contained resorty place where the emphasis would be on hanging out and there would be plenty of on-site stuff for people to do.

Our wings are not tired.

High on my list is a good facility. Easy to get to is first to get a nice turnout, but having a comfy place to hang out when not going on field trips is important.

Very much so, Laura. I'd love to have a Hospitality Suite that was actually a nice place to hang out and slounge.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Does Club Med do group rates?

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Deeply allergic to resorty places over here, but that's a different strokes thing, I guess.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I've had some marvellous times in resorts, but Club Med does raise a rash.

Personally, I'd prefer a resort that didn't have the sort of YOU WILL HAVE FUN OR DIE TRYING vibe that the big resort chains seem to have. Something small and more lodge-like could be fun. I would like to have a good array of comfy furniture, beverages and snacks readily available, and some interesting walks and outdoor activities in the area.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

I had a great time at the Pelican resort in Coff's Harbour. The place was overrun with eastern water dragons. So cool. (Plus, soldier crabs on the beach.)

Um. Probably not a viable location for the F2F.

The only Club Med I have been to is about an hour north of me and we had a great time. I enjoy the inclusive resorts. Pressure to join group activities may exist but I am immune to it.

Any resort I have been to have been rather pricey. I don't know if better deals are available.

We could all lie and say we were interested in buying timeshares at some nice location.

Up with the sun

I would like to have a good array of comfy furniture, beverages and snacks readily available, and some interesting walks and outdoor activities in the area.

Coolfont Resort in West Virginia is nice. Great cabins/chalets for lodging, and some are big enough to host smaller parties, if not Prom. I haven't spent much time there, but the town reportedly has all sorts of spa-y and nature-y activities.

But that's on the wrong coast until at least 2007, and even then it might be too hard to get to.
