MangoCon Is official!
-
SpiceCorps Buffalo, which almost never gets together, is trying to schedule something for September. I offered to speak if they can schedule close to the MangoCon event. We should get a number of people from the area together and attend Buffalo if possible and try to get them to schedule somewhere around the 12th and get their numbers up with a road trip from the Roch/Cuse area!

If it's the day before MangoCon, that'd be great for me, I'd stop by on my way to the hotel

Those of us in the area should post in their forum to get some traction for dates that we want.

It's a 4:45 drive for me, yay, no messing with airplanes!
I'm about 10 hours, but as I'll be there the whole week... I'm driving. Not fooling around with a plane either.

You could carpool with me to the Buffalo event. Are you staying near NTG HQ before the conference? I'll be around the corner at Sonshine Acres.

As yet to be determined, but most likely yes, will be pretty close to HQ.
Carpool - is that code for my being the DD?

It might be cause I doubt I will have time to go

Got an email from Starwinds this morning about a drawing for free MangoCon tickets! I still can't go but hopefully someone can win these.

That's awesome!
That they are giving them away, not that you can't go.

So, the hotel is sold out for those dates. Anyone have an extra bed?
-
NO the website isn't working. Just call the hotel and use the code GRS and there are still rooms available.
-
The only thing open arriving was the 14th, not the 13th. So I will just get an early ass flight out of Dallas.
I got the extra queen bed room so I can split the cost if anyone wants to share a room. -
I assume I wont need a car?

If you want to travel around the area outside of the Letchworth park trip you'll likely want one. There is a lot of really awesome things in the area. ~15-30 minutes in every direction.
-
Looks like there is a gaming convention the weekend prior too if anyone is there early.
-
You wont need a car. And there are a few of us from this area so if you want to site see we could probably arrange it.

Definitely not. Everything conference related is in the one building and it is downtown, all of downtown Rochester is trivially accessible on foot (it's like 1/10th the downtown space of Dallas) and if you went nuts and wanted a taxi, it would be super cheap.

How about from the airport?
