DLCon 3: This Time, There's a "3" In The Name.

[Kilgamayan]

You've clearly never been to Gensokyo.

Wait, delusional? Uh...

Shit.

[Yakumo]

Uh, that's news to me on the International terminal thing, I'll look it up when I get home. >_>

[Hunter Sopko]

From the map of the airport alone it doesn't look like you have to do anything different. Virgin gets in at Terminal A, which connects directly to the Main Hall, and you have to walk through it to get to one of the Domestic flights terminals. Yakko, if you see anything different?

Oh, general question to conference attendees:

Do you want me to wear pants or skirts?

I wore a skirt on the last day of DLC2 (when I was out of other warm-weather clothes) and was told afterwards that several people were sorry they missed it, or felt I looked much more like how they imagined me.  Now, I'm comfortable wearing whatever, and have a good selection in my closet, so everyone else should say what they would prefer I wear for DLC3.

[OblivionKnight]

Grass skirt, coconut bra, colour your hair pink and green

[Xeroma]

The fact that you can ask a question like that so nonchalantly scares me >_>;

I don't own any bras--don't you think I'm a tad young for that, OK?

[QuietRain]

If you guys do end up flying into the Int'l terminal (what is up with that anyway...), we'll just adjust.

Yakko, your pick up is the only one this complicates.  If you could get on the Airtran after picking up baggage and head for Terminal 1's baggage claim area.  That's where I'm picking up Niu before heading to get Shale.  I'm not sure if it'll be the Red Line or the Blue Line you'll need to take (there are 2 AirTran tracks), but it'll be whichever one's next stop is the domestic terminals, not the garages.  And if you get the wrong one, it's not that bad.  They all loop around in a circle, so you'll just catch Terminal 1 the long way around.

And for Soppy, I'll just meet you in the Terminal A baggage claim.  Since I'm picking OK up early, it'll be just you.  No sense in making you go to the domestic terminal for no reason.

May I state for the record, Virgin Airlines is for the birds. ^_^  If either of you wants my cell number for airport snafus, PM me, and I have both of yours.

So awesome.

[QuietRain]

I would say pants just cause Pacifica gets so freaking cold.  But if you don't mind the cold drafts, a skirt would prolly be more comfy.

[Yakumo]

Yeah, I've got like an hour to figure out where the hell to be, I'm sure I can figure it out. 

Doesn't look too bad anyway.

[Dark Holy Elf]

Okay, all relevant phone numbers are acquired; thanks to Laggys and QRs.

As I said I expect I'll be showing up at the house if we are there after 4. I assume someone will be there at all times? Only danger is if we arrive at dinner time, so this post is mostly to ask what we are doing for Thursday dinner. Granted, worst comes to worst I will just phone, but yeah.

Earlier and I will phone Gate/QR for directions to their place.

[QuietRain]

Best to try my cell if you need directions.  Gate has many skills.  Navigation is NOT one of them.  Dead serious. 

I know Gate's planning Portugese Chicken for dinner on Friday or Saturday.  And there was talk of going to some other group's meeting for dinner as well on the other one of those days.  But further than that, I am clueless.  Did anyone nail down dinner stuff in a previous part of the thread or the previous thread before we moved forums?

Depends; is it warmer or colder than Downtown San Francisco / Richmond District?

[Laggy]

One night dinner out, I think, was the plan before, with the Soulriders group. Some place local, obviously (your suggestion would probably be best there). Hal has details on the SR meetup, but it's on Saturday.

MC: Yes, it is. (Though I would vote skirt anyway.)

It is a bit more chilly, a bit more windy and way foggier.

You have no idea how true this is. Seriously.

[superaielman]

If there's a completed list of cell phone numbers, could someone PM it to me?

[VySaika]

Okay! We have food news!

Wed-Thurs meals: Catch as catch can. Seriously, nothing planned for these days. There's a subway right across the street from my house, so that's something at least.

Friday Breakfast/Lunch: Same as last 'con. Meals aside from dinner weren't planned last time, and they aren't this time either. Much as Hal did last time, QR and I will be stocking up on drinks, chips, snackfoods, etc.

Friday Dinner: I'm cooking. Tai/QR assisting. Portuguese(sp?) Chicken, a somewhat spicy chicken stew of sorts with chorizo in it. It is yum. (If possible, bring like $5 a piece to throw at me for ingredients, please.)

Saturday Breakfast/Lunch: Second verse, same as the first. There's a store right next to the beach house, we can grab sammich stuff there, I suppose.

Satudary Dinner: Going out to eat somwhere? No idea where at the moment. QR and I tend to not actually go to The Local Places(as we've done so a couple times and got bad food by them), so we're actually not great people to ask about this. On the other claw, we could order pizza instead? There's actually a rather good pizza place across the street from us(at least I like thier stuff, QR not so much). They also have good italian sammiches and such, as well as pizza. That's a thought at least.

Sunday Breakfast: Okay, the SR folks are booked on Sat, but want to get together sunday morning. So those who want could go have breakfast with them on Sunday. I'm hoping Drac has somewhere in mind, as I sure don't.

Any other meals: Third verse, same as the second. You know the drills by now.

Any questions?

[Xeroma]

I can supply breakfast drinks[smoothies] if people are willing to hand me some extra cash for supplies. That is, if the beach house has a blender. Otherwise, I'll try to generically help out the best I can.

[superaielman]

Oh yeah:

If you're going to the con, vote/do any ranking stuff before you leave. I want to spend as little time as possible doublechecking results/doing ranking stuff this week as possible.

[Niu]

Okay, so who is picking me up exactly? And I'll need the cell of the person doing to tell the person apart. I am not confident in remembering how people looks like.

[OblivionKnight]

Sounds good, QR.  Maybe I'll wear my labcoat to stand out more >_> 

Or, alternatively, if it looks like there's a guy walking like he's had a hand stuck up several orifices on his body searching for something, that's likely me >_>

[superaielman]

Leave your sex life out of this OK.

Niu, with the exception of Alex & Hal (and Xer) I'm doing all the picking up.  I'll PM you the numbers.  And you don't need to remember what I look like.  Just look for the DLCon 3 sign I'll have with me when I meet you in the baggage claim for just such a purpose.
