Damage In Tolland Posted June 7, 2012 Share Posted June 7, 2012 I'm in. Scooter you are in charge of the place and time and recruiting everyone. Messenger posted in the conf thread that he hadn't paid or signed up but that he is still def going lol. The chances of MRG getting a normal short haircut are better than Messenger showing up at the conf or any GTG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheTrials Posted June 7, 2012 Share Posted June 7, 2012 How about a joint NYC/SNE gtg, since no one except forky and loko go to the conference from our area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too much other stuff going on this summer LOL after all of that moaning earlier this year about the first proposed date, and Randy finally bowing to you, and changing the date, you bail. Classic.

Yeah our annual trip up there. But I'm not a Bills fan. Just go to have a blast. Also I went to BTV 2 weekends ago and Cape for July 4th.

weatherwiz Posted June 7, 2012 Share Posted June 7, 2012 I hear that every year... Yes, but this is completely different. There wasn't supposed to be a conference this year but Randy bailed in and setup up and starting the entire process months after he normally does which means he had to bust his ass harder than ever to make sure there was one. He does this and the list right now is only 51 people? He was even able to get a discount so before May 15th the fee was only around $90. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weatherwiz Posted June 7, 2012 Share Posted June 7, 2012 I would not mind PVD at all. One of my best friends now lives in that area and I haven't seen him in nearly two years...I'm sure I could get him to stop by. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weatherwiz Posted June 7, 2012 Share Posted June 7, 2012 Why is that? Losing their luster and folks not going? Randy busted his ass to get one this year after he really didn't want to have one and b/c of that he didn't get the process started until much later than he normally does. He made the decision b/c of all the people who asked for one and said they would go. The numbers signed up right now are pretty terrible and I can't see Randy being all too happy with that, especially since he even worked hard to get discounts on the conference fee as well as room fee as well as some other perks.

Makes sense...I've never been but thought they were wildly popular. I just can never go anywhere during summer/fall and winter tourist season....and no one seems to want to hold anything in late April-Memorial Day or mid-Oct to mid-Nov when I have time off to travel. I guess seeing as even SNE crew of 40/70, Coastal, Blizz, ORH, etc arent going it's probably similar for other regions without core members going. It's gotta be hard to go to BWI though every single summer, year after year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is what it is Paul. It's ok dude. Sorta irritated with certain people but I'll get over it. Nothing wrong with regional gtgs. Just odd timing, in lieu of. Etc.
