Zane, not sure if that's a confirmation of interest. I'll make the reservations sometime tonight. [/quote] If the bus schedule is to be believed, I won't be in Chicago until 8. So probably not. [/quote]Thought you were getting in Thursday, Zane? And Eightball is going downtown Friday night?

The group I go to MAGFest with uses GroupMe which I think works pretty well. It works similar to a list serv except you can send and receive messages either via SMS, email, or their app if you have a smartphone. How it works is someone sets up a group that is linked with a phone number. The group creator then can add members via a phone number or email address along with a nickname. When a member sends a message to the group it will relay the message to the rest of the subscribers, but phone numbers and email addresses are kept private and only the nickname shows up on the message. Subscribers can also mute the group at any time if you're getting spammed too often.This seems like a good idea but it would only really work if we got everyone in there, or if everyone knew who was in the group. What do you guys think?

Crow - 04-24-2012 Oddly enough, I drink so much that my Jarate is just about 10% alcohol by volume. I'll bring some chips too, anything else last minute that's coming up short?

The only things I think we could use are perhaps more cups, and those disposable shot glasses. I've also snagged some cranberry juice and might procure some more alcohol on Thursday. Re: ACEN 2012 - Electric Bogaloo, Final Countdown & Planning - at0m - 04-24-2012 Battle damage to medipack 60% repaired. Found some dark metallic spray paint that was perfect for covering the chips in the finish, and I've got a new pistol belt & harness. Will be fabricating pouches to weight the belt down, and an attachment mechanism for the bag -> harness tonight. Also need to reattach the bottle. I bought 80 more party cups, Eightball. Re: ACEN 2012 - Electric Bogaloo, Final Countdown & Planning - A. Crow - 04-24-2012 i just bought 50.... Re: ACEN 2012 - Electric Bogaloo, Final Countdown & Planning - [fr31ns]Karrde - 04-24-2012 Just bought beer. 1 Bomber of Avery "Maharaja" IPA 1 Bomber of "The Auroch's Horn" ...not sure wtf it is to be precise. Crazy local. Made by a guy on a farm here. Though he trained with the brewmasters for Goose Island and Summit. It's basically a honey brewed strong golden ale. Either way it's fuckwin. 1 6 pack of Brew Farm's "Matacarbras" rye ale. This shit owns. Re: ACEN 2012 - Electric Bogaloo, Final Countdown & Planning - Striker - 04-24-2012 I'll be there Thursday night, if I had to guess, maybe 8-9 Central Time. Mostly likely I'll be in my Proton Pack first night if at all. I usually hang around the Hyatts main lobby. Aside from that I'll be staying in the Embassy Suites. Re: ACEN 2012 - Electric Bogaloo, Final Countdown & Planning - Dtrain323i - 04-24-2012 I'm going to also bring champagne and orange juice so we can have friday morning mimosas |
