So let's talk about money. There is a discount rate on rooms at the host hotel this year. However! You have to use the following website to reserve rooms. Don't call any of the numbers, it will only infuriate you.*

*It might not infuriate you.

nothing reserved, but usually people do arrive the day before and find space to play, but more low key.

YAYZ EVAN HANIA & TOM.

We should all pose once we all arrive at Chi-town. This will be fantabulous. :)

I'd really like to do Request contest. Are there plans to run this? If nobody else runs it, I'll do it, but ideally I'd prefer to compete, so if somebody else wants to run it, or get somebody to make a list to use, that'd be sweet.
