San Diego Zoo will be happening either earlier (say about the 16th) or later (say the 30th). Well, Option 1 would mean the 23rd or so, but I think that's less likely than the other two. I'll be in San D for twice as long as the other cities, so I'm trying to spread the wealth. L.A. will get at least one weekend day, and either Seattle or SF will probably get Thanksgiving. And I will get pie.
Hmm. Let me know what you decided to do. I think I can work out to be here whenever you are, and hopefully I can make it down to SD as well.
It's my cage.
Ah, I see. Makes sense to me.
Look, ita, I get HALF. No one else will get in the ring with you, which means that as it stands, both of us have NONE.
Y'know? I'll bet no one even thought about a cagematch as one of the presidential debate formats.
As it stands not even 20 people have weighed in on the issue of a revote, let alone has their been much discussion.
As a result I consider this closed. New Orleans is our city.
Good idea, ND. That was the consensus, and I think it is likely that other people will be consensing when they sign in tomorrow.
Bring on the hotels and the other stuff, and thanks to all for the hard work done this far.
So we should be seeing some information soon from Heather and -t on NO. They are the point people for this location and will be doing some of the ground work. If I can swing a recon trip out there in January or some such I may do it just to help out as well.
On a farther reaching note, here are two things I'm looking at doing this year for the F2F. The idea of tickets for our party seems to not really fit what happens. We try to raise money to cover some of our costs for the weekend. So, here's what I'm looking at doing. Once we have a good idea of what the ballpark on costs will be I'm going to post that total to b.org and then I'll open up my PayPal account and take donations. No tickets, everyone is welcome, and I've really got no worries that we'll get enough money to hit our costs just by asking for donations.
Kind of also in that strain here's the other thing I'd like to do. Starting in about a month I'd like to open up a donation pool for folks who may need a bit of help financially with coming to join us. Last year we had a lot of folks who paid extra so that it could offset the costs for folks. So, I'll open up a donation pool and if folks want to pitch in a few bucks then we can help each other make it to the big event. Does this sound workable?
ND, I think that sounds extremely workable. I love how you've set it up so we can donate to a general fund to the level we are able, and I also love the opportunity for those who have the extra cash to be able to anonymously help out those who don't.
Much thanks for all the work you've done and will continue to do on this.
Thank you, ND, for the focus you've brought to this process. And everything else. Because also, it's not like you're sitting around at home with nothing better to do!
