Comment by Patrick Sprague on May 28, 2010 at 11:02am: Sorry Friends! I will no longer be attending. :( Work has come in the way.

Comment by Kapitan R. O. von Grelle on May 25, 2010 at 11:24pm: I'll try giving her another call today, if you don't hear from me by Thursday evening, then I will have sadly failed you, sir.

Comment by Zebulon Vitruvius Pike on May 25, 2010 at 5:25pm: Yes, meet-up. Yes, room party. Well, sort of. I certainly want to meet up with some people, even if it's just hanging around in a room or in the lobby and talking. All it takes is someone to choose a hole in their schedule and post a few pieces of paper in the hallways inviting people to their room.I may do it myself at some point if nothing more organized turns up.

Kapitan. . . Do you still have the roommate for me? One way or another I'd like to know before setting out on Friday. If not, I might just solicit for a roommate with flyers in the hallway.

Comment by Kapitan R. O. von Grelle on May 24, 2010 at 10:31pm: The Ladies of the S.M.S. Zepherus shall be having auditions for their next cabin boy at 4:30pm on Saturday in the hotel Lobby. Be prepared to strut your stuff or watch a little good-humored humiliation.

Comment by C.D. Fleur on May 24, 2010 at 1:26am: The other path would be to take a look at the schedule (huzzah! it's there!!!) and pick a time when there is an empty room on the schedule and not too many competing activities, and get permission to use that room.

Or we all decide to show up at the tea room or lobby at x-o'clock.

Comment by Kapitan R. O. von Grelle on May 24, 2010 at 12:25am: We were considering having a room party- but sadly suites were far too expensive for us all, so there's no room to have people over.

Comment by C.D. Fleur on May 22, 2010 at 8:18pm: Perhaps we should arrange a meetup of the Steampunk Empire members, and/or mark our badges? I suppose if someone is already printing up some badge ribbons...?

Or maybe someone wants to through a room party !!!

(I'm just day-tripping- but possibly all 4 days)

Comment by Tim "Red Jack Ryan" Nolen on May 19, 2010 at 11:46am: looking forward to this.

Comment by Zebulon Vitruvius Pike on May 17, 2010 at 5:06pm: I have reserved a room for the weekend but am traveling by myself. That means my room has an empty bed available to defray costs. I would be willing to share that space with a non-smoking, non-snoring roommate.

Comment by Gaidig Traon on May 12, 2010 at 6:09pm: Looking forward to it. I like the new website, but I'm hoping to see a schedule so I can make my nefarious plans...
