OK. Where are they? Who's interested? I know quite a few of you are going, who's interested in meeting others from here? I REALLY like Gwangipal's suggestions in the sticky thread, but it appears not many are reading the stickys. That could be fun! Suggestion: At the official hotel, their biggest bar at: A. 3-4 Thursday (leaves plenty of time) B. Friday after AVCA meets and before their dinner. C. Sat. morning early, like 8-9, before people leave to shop and golf. All three? Maybe we just designate an offical B.S. area. How would we recognize each other? Maybe offer candy through seasonal Pez dispensers...? I also would like to know about the pizza place, robertmotley... is that still on? One or the other! I'd be interested in meeting some new VTers!

Me and my fiance SHOULD be there. We have had some things come up at the last second but I would still count on us being there.

Idaho Boy®, you have my cell number...call me and let me know what has been decided. I leave tomorrow too, so my time here will be sort of limited, but I'll let you know VBCoach. ROBERTMOTLEY WHERE ARE YOU!?! You're supposed to be our "host."

I thought Gorf had invited you all to meet in his room. He was going to cater the whole thing, too. Something about a band and an open bar...

I kinda liked another poster saying maintaining the confidentiality of posters appealed to him. I would definiitely attend a get-together where we don't have name-tags and aren't expected to out ourselves. Sheesh, I don't want to know what Gorf and Ruffda would probably do to me if they knew face-to-face who I was, but I would love to talk with them and many other VTers anonymously. We're staying at the Marriott Renaissance, next door to the Arena, and arrive Thursday.

We're staying at the Marriott Renaissance, next door to the Arena, and arrive Thursday. As the description of the Earth goes in the Hithhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. I'm (mostly) harmless. However, I refuse to be held accountable for any "accidents" that happen within my vicinity. I'm somewhat oblivious and things just "sort of happen" at times. That said, as my wife would attest, I mostly injure myself - and don't realize it until she says things like "What happened to your arm?" FWIW: I'm also staying in the Rennaisance. Arriving Thursday before the semifinal matches and leaving Saturday sometime after the championship match.

I'm pretty lazy. ;D

I could bring my MP3 / CD of the entire radio series and we could all listen to it for several hours at the VT meeting.
*cough*
FWIW: I plan to have a notebook computer with me and a wireless data card. The card word in most of the LB areas we were in last year while we were in the LB area for regionals.

Extreme Pizza is in the "Pike" across from Gameworks. Anyone around will be able to direct you there. Should we meet before the matches on Thursday and then again on Sat?

I will then say "tibbir, tibbir" and see if you look up. Then I will have found gorf.
