I don't care how excited you are or how many red bulls you think you can handle, stick to the 6/2/1 ratio -- within every 24-hour period, get minimum 6 hrs sleep, 2 meals, and 1 shower. Downtime is good. Pace yourself.

Went on a trip to the liquor store today. Found something Caff's been looking for, something I've been looking for, and something I want to try. The first is his to distribute, the second better not come back empty (but is to be enjoyed, not chugged), and the third is going to definitely be something to sample and come home mostly full.

Will be bringing these + a fresh-made bottle of Dominican Mama Juana, another bottle full of Mama Juana that's been aging for over a year and a half, and my Austrian Bierschnapps. Should be good times.

Mama Juana is a traditional spiced rum from the Dominican Republic, that I make from a kit jug thing that I bought while I was there. And you're more than welcome to mooch, I might bring a bottle of Bacardi Gold or something to share/get drunk on, since these ones are much nicer

Re: ACEN 2012 - Electric Bogaloo, Final Countdown & Planning - A. Crow - 04-07-2012
Why bother with fake when real ones are so cheap?
yeah, I'm just not cosplaying, it's not in the budget. Â

FYI, will be PMing everyone staying in my room to request contact info. This will be used to arrange payment and will be exchanged amongst people in the room to facilitate key distribution & access to the room.

We will need more than just one bottle, unless we find a Jesus at the con who actually CAN turn water into wine...
Also I have all of my room's contact information, status update from the other room heads?
Re: ACEN 2012 - Electric Bogaloo, Final Countdown & Planning - at0m - 04-11-2012
All of those in my room have replied and given me contact info, although there's some confusion over who's sleeping there thursday, for some reason. Will be totaling everything up and telling everyone who'll owe what when I get off work tonight, most likely.
