Not yet. :/ That's what I need to be sorting out soon, and the tickets aren't gonna be booked 'til it is sorted, but I now know for certain that I can get the tickets, at least.

100% confirmed to be driving from Morgantown, WV. It's about a 6 hour drive. If there is anyone on the way, I'll be glad to grab them.

You could totally hit Johnstown.

The thing is, I still need to be home and at least slightly rested by early Monday. And money. And know if I'll have a job schedule interfering or not.

Still, progress.

Random longshot, but do you know a female by the name of Breanne Nestor, or family?

Ultradude · « **Reply #29 on:** May 04, 2009, 03:56:20 PM »

No, new to the area.

Technically in Davidsville, but Johnstown is where I'd want to be picked up for the sake of being easier to find.

You're FLYING? You lazy Aiel.

Speaking of which, as I said earlier, I'm driving out that day, time still unknown (this will be clarified in July), though the date is - the Wednesday, day before it all starts on Thursday. It's a 6-7 hour drive from Morgantown to Meepleland. Anyone along the way is free to get in the car with me.

Wish I had more to update

superaielman · « **Reply #34 on:** May 27, 2009, 12:48:09 AM »

Cheaper to fly by a substantive amount.

Northwest only sucks when you get ported to a Delta flight (which, since they're owned by the same people, could be one leg of your flight). Then it sucks a lot. Ask Andrew about Salt Lake City.

Dhyerwolf · « **Reply #38 on:** June 08, 2009, 03:42:43 AM »

Inbound: 7/30, 7:57 PM Newark Arrival (Same as MC/Gate/Tai. This one could be somewhat flexible for me if it's too many coming in at the same time though).

Meeplelard · « **Reply #40 on:** June 10, 2009, 12:22:59 AM »

Ok, this post is dedicated to me figuring out who to pick up when, as things stand now!

FIRST OFF:
I CANNOT TAKE MORE THAN 4 PEOPLE IN MY CAR. That's the absolute limit. I'd ideally want only 3 at most but 4 is the limit! So anyone who has NOT given a time yet, please compare it to people already coming and what not, and try to come during a time when I'm not picking up 4 people at once already. Unless you don't mind waiting at the Airport for an extra 5 hours or something...

First off, people who are getting here not via plane, thus don't really require much assistance!
Meeple
OblivionKnight
Xeroma
SageAcrin
NotMiki
Soppy
Shale (?)

People coming before the Con thus become irrelevant to all this shenanigans!
Grefter (Monday)
Tonfa (Tuesday)
Djinn (Wensday)

Now for the stuff that matters!
July 30th:

12:10 PM, Newark: Super, Pyro, CK, Tal
3:14 PM, La Guardia: Ciato
3:16 PM, Newark: Zenny, Nitori
8:30 PM, Newark: Dhyer, Tai, MC, Gate, Niu

First off, I'm aware this isn't everyone but, but as it stands now, there's one minor problem with the list, and that's Ciato and Zenny basically come in at the exact same time from 2 different Airports. AS SUCH, I'm going to require some assistance in getting at least one of them. I know some of you volunteered to help out, and as it stands, I'll at least need help here.

...yeah, bit of a problem here. See, NIu's coming in half hour after others...when I already have 4 people then. If someone has NOT finalized during that time and can change, that'd help a lot; alternatively, someone's just going to have to come with me to Newark at that time, and grab him.

Nitori is coming in technically an hour before the listed time, but he said he wouldn't mind waiting an hour at the airport, so yeah. Important to note for whoever is going to pick up Zenny, since as I said, Ciato's coming in from a different Airport at the same time, so someone other than myself is going to have to care.

Arrival: Thu, Jul 30, 2009, 12:10pm - Newark, NJ (EWR)

OblivionKnight · « **Reply #42 on:** June 10, 2009, 02:21:21 AM »

I'll be driving out the 29th (Wednesday). Time unknown, but may be in the morning, now. Either way, I'll be there that night. Please let me know if you'd like a ride - I can make adjustments later.

Tonfa · « **Reply #43 on:** June 17, 2009, 09:19:48 PM »

Meeplelard · « **Reply #46 on:** July 20, 2009, 08:10:58 AM »

REturn Schedule: This is just me listing whose returning and when on sunday, with who. In general, we're going to be leaving a few hours earlier than the Flight wants. Why? 2 hour rule at Airport is good to adhere too. So while your flight might leave at 10, I'll be taking you there about 8. So yeah, this explains why your flights and such might seem early. Also, if some of you have to wait longer at the airport? I apologize for that; but I'm not making multiple trips cause of 1 hour differences, and I need to factor in people who can fit into my car.

First off, people not leaving on Sunday or going by means not Flying:
Meeple
Soppy
OK
Andrew
Lady Door
Ciato
Elfboy
NotMiki
Sage
Xer
Super
Grefter
Djinn

NOTE: Unless specified otherwise, these are going to Newark

6:30 AM
Niu (...I hate you for this...)

8:30 AM:
Tai
Nitori
Talaysen

1:00 PM:
Dhyerwolf
Gate
MC
Pyro

4:00 PM:
Zenny
CK

8:30 PM:
Tonfa (JFK)

OK, I know you volunteered to take some people back, so the question is which of these groups would be reasonable for you?

And again, I apologize for the inconvenience some of you may have for waiting at the Airport, but due to how times fall, this is how I'm going to be doing things.

Cotigo · « **Reply #47 on:** July 21, 2009, 02:44:01 AM »

Protip: Waiting at the airport is less tedious if you wait at the bar. This may be expensive but then afterward you can focus your attention to how much you just got ripped off so the time goes by faster.

OblivionKnight · « **Reply #48 on:** July 21, 2009, 05:14:07 AM »

Mmm...wow. Probably the earlier groups, since I have to be at work at 0600 the next day. Probably the 1600 group at the latest. I can definitely take all the ones before 1300 - if you need, I can stay to do some more.

Mostly uneccessary I'd imagine given how many of us probably own portable systems.
