JackieChan December 11, 2012 Share JackieChan GC Alumni December 11, 2012 We need to have a designated photographer for the event and have them take tons of pictures and actually upload them somewhere so everyone can see them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tonerrrr December 11, 2012 Share tonerrrr Member December 11, 2012 I'd imagine the easiest thing to do will be to just pre-charge everyone then decide on the place once you get an idea (guaranteed money) from that, no? I've never been to a LAN that wasn't very small, group of close friends, and of the XBOX nature (as NO ONE I know plays PC). How much is this usually? I'm definitely interested in going and probably bringing a friend (road trip). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackieChan December 11, 2012 Share JackieChan GC Alumni December 11, 2012 That's generally what we do. Every year (I think) has been $50 to reserve a seat at the LAN. In 2007, we had a seating chart and it was first come, first reserve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flitterkill December 11, 2012 Author Share Flitterkill GC Board Member December 11, 2012 It was $50 for a month or two, something like Dec-Jan; maybe longer. That cheap mainly to get some dime to put a deposit down. Otherwise the event planners are using their own money/plastic... Then it went up to $75 as the reg amount. Then about one or two months before FFO it bumped to $100 as late joins, although still welcomed, did affect planning,etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shaftiel December 12, 2012 Share shaftiel Member December 12, 2012 Eh, start a sign-up sheet. After a couple weeks see how many you have signed up for FF. Divide the deposit amount by that number. If it looks reasonable, make that the early entry price. Step that price up as the date gets closer. Shaftiel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree, though as it usually happens, something unexpected will pop up and increase value. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JackieChan December 21, 2012 Share JackieChan GC Alumni December 21, 2012 As I never gave my choice, I like Location A. Sure, it might be more expensive, but the comfort of being at the hotel just feels better to me. And you should come anyway, ZD. It's not all about the gaming. In 2009, I didn't have a computer (except for Clueless being generous to let me use his while he wasn't using it), I still had a blast just hanging out with people. FF is the only vacation ever that I look forward to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allanon December 23, 2012 Share Allanon Member December 23, 2012 ZD if it helps I doubt I will be gaming much. My old desktop is in shambles and when I do play it's on my 3 year old laptop. If I'm close this summer I definitely plan on coming. P.S. that means Chicago so if anyone close by wants to road trip let me know. Also food/drink restrictions don't bug me, but being a little bit of an insomniac 1am is a bit early. Of course whatever people vote on is good with me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
