Post-DLC5 Topic~

I'm all for it.

DL INVADES TEXAS.

MEAT, HANDGUNS AND HATS.

YEE HAW!

[Yakumo]

We already did that one once.  Not that this precludes us from doing it again, mind.  Just saying.

[Halbarad]

Needs more Texas DLCon so Hal and I can show up. 

Actually considering this seriously. OK is talking about WV, but if he hasn't confirmed by the time I get done moving at the end of November I'll start working on Austin hosting again.

We need the rain, after all.

[Shale]

Yeah, it'd be nice to have the con in a cool, mild climate like Texas again.

[Luther Lansfeld]

I would personally 10000% prefer Austin to WV. I could sneak a visit home in!

[Grefter]

But if it was in WV you could totally sneak farts in public the whole visit instead.

[metroid composite]

For reasons of varying people, rotation is good.  It's been four years since we've done Texas, and two years since we've done northeast.

For monetary reasons, large airports are good.  Although hmm...I suppose Austin is no Dallas airport-wise, but it's probably still cheaper than WV.


(Side note: Atlanta Georgia apparently has the most active airport in the world...not that I'm established enough to feel comfortable hosting).

[Captain K.]

Yeah, I'm not adverse to hosting myself, but my location would involve increased travel costs for everyone.  3 hours farther south than Austin by car, and not a major air destination.

[NotMiki]

I may be able to host at my parents' house at some point (possibly late next summer depending on what kind of summer employment I obtain).  Haven't asked them, but I imagine they'd be fine with it if planned far enough in advance.  Don't know if there'd be much interest in doing it in MA, though.

[Idun]

Yeah, Hartsfield-Jackson airport is the shit.

Totally willing to go to a con in Texas. It'll probably be cheaper since I'm not too far away, plus I'd have other more feasible options to make it there. Just need a time (whenever), and will pray that I'm able to make it. I WANNA HUG PEOPLE.

[SageAcrin]

Yeah, it'd be nice to have the con in a cool, mild climate like Texas again.

In all seriousness I could actually come there then! Semi-reliably! That would be good.

[Jo'ou Ranbu]

If it's hosted on Texas, Hal gets to torment Alex solely for the sake of getting to torment me and the trip will even be relatively cheap!

[NotMiki]

I don't believe I said so, but the con was great!  Thanks to the organizers for organizing, and particularly Gate and Jenna for putting me up for the night on short notice.  I had an absolutely great time.  Always enjoy getting to see the lot of you, since I'm not much of a communicator over the internet.  Looking forward to the next one!

[DjinnAndTonic]

Re: DLCTexas.  I could make it to that assuming I'm still in the country next year, so I'm in favor of that.
