Maybe you should come to meet and play with about 40 people youve never met before too!

No, Ianek is the only important person attending this event. Gosh, Ianek, you're so stuck-up sometimes!

I was about to cancel my trip but since Ianek is going I will not change my plans

By the way, can anyone pick me and Kolo at Ohare airport? We will arrive on the 28th at 9:33AM

Or let me know an easy way to the event from there ! Thanks

Plan on taking a train to the event for now. Around a week, week and a half before the event I'll be able to let you know if I can pick you guys up.


Ummm about which train ... im not sure ... but it would be taking the blue line at ohare to the loop. In the loop there is a free transfer onto the red line .... then you take the red line to cermak/chinatown ... once you get there you take a bus east to mCcormick place

i know those arent the best instructions, but I will improve on them later, unless tom beats me to it.

Request: Detailed footage of Henry Griese vs. John T. Mahood boxing match. I won't be there, but I definitely want to see some intense carnage. :P

I will be able to pick up some peeps at O'Hare. Once everyone gets there times we'll arrange some pickups. Also I found directions last year for trains, but it's on my other computer at my sisters house.

Also I want to mention that I'm stoked to hear Johnny and Jorden are returning this year! This exclamation should be bigger like this !

Reile or Zeke, please send me that text file I made on your computer so I can organize a list of who's staying where. Also log me out of trillian if I'm still on, so you don't chat up my online girlies.

So far I have these people staying in the CIC suite:
Tom
Zeke
Reile
Shawn
John Mahood
Bobby Glasser
Brad Nelson
Emily
Fletcher
Mike Hansen
Gray
Matthieu
Kolo
Zach
Henry
Freddy
Rory (SlashC) and Jessica (hackrificer) from Shredmonton

I know I need to add people: Jeremy, Dat, Tim, Dan Cyr, Mosher crew, etc? Other people from montreal? And maybe subtract. We already have bout 17, and want about 25, maybe with a max of 30. The price is gonna be something like 20-40 dollars to stay in the suite for 3 days 2 nights - pretty cheap. I'll know the exact number when we nail down everyone who's staying. PM me if you wanna stay. First come first serve-ish.

Brinard is getting a room, FCFC getting a room? Seattle/portland getting a room? Everyone with a room please post a list of who's staying with you. I'd like to have all attendees put into rooms and the then listed on the first post. Organize this mofo thang up well.

I'm going to make a few rope 4-square courts for prizes. I'll get custom drawstring pouches made to carry them around in. They've been great outdoors on the grass and have been very usefull indoors, as well, when we tape the rings down to the floor.

EDIT:
Tom I'll send the file as soon as I get home.
