Yeah... so if I can't get a ride to this, I'm probably not going to be able to come. I do live in Van Wert (well, just outside). If any of you guys feel like helping a friend out- and I can pay part of gas- could you PM me? PLZ? :D

Well, that stinks. So far, I dont know anyone else from the forums that has made a commitment to show. I will be getting home that day from work at 1:30 and be rushing to make sure details are taken care of, or else I would come get you.

:| Okay. Well, unless things change dramatically for me in the next week, I think I'm going to have to pass for this. Sorry :)

Just a quick reminder, the 22 is just 2 days away. If you are planning on attending, I need to know by then. That way my wife can plan refreshments, and I can pick up enough tables and chairs. If you are in the "Maybe" category, I will get seating for you.

Thanks.

I was so close to talking my wife into letting me come. Her family lives in the Fort, so I could have dropped her off and came over. Then one of her family called the other day with some drama. Since I just went to a LAN, it's hard to justify going to another one unless it benefits her as well. And this time it doesn't, she doesn't want to deal with their stuff right now. One benefit of living 1.5 hours away, though. A phone call is all we have to put up with. No one can come over. :)

Understandable. I live 1.5 hrs from my in-laws too, so I see the benefit!

Maybe next time.

Just another reminder... Today is the LAST day to tell me if you are going to be here. If you dont say you want to come and show up anyway, there is a 99.9% chance there will not be a seat for you. That .1% chance comes in when I have an odd number of people and an empty space at a table. But dont count on that.

I do have 12 seats if anyone wants them, just let me know today.

It has been brought to my attention that some people would like to know about parking, loading, and unloading.

I think it works out rather well, that my driveway is also a parking lot! I actually have a paved, lined, parking lot for a driveway. It has 5 lined spots, but to make sure there is room, we will begin parking at the back of the lot, and work our way to the front. If the paved area runs out of space, then there is a gravel/grassy area behind my house that we can begin to use.

As far as unloading/loading. You can pull up near the door in the driveway, and unload, or you can park, then unload. If you choose to unload before you park, please pull as far to the right as you can so others can get around you if they so choose.

If you have any parking questions, you can ask myself, or L@dyG1gabyt3, my wife, and she can help as well.

On Saturday, I will not be home until close to 1:15-1:20. If you arrive before me, please be patient. As soon as I get home, we can start getting things setup and ready to go.

i know Reaper is bringing his extra networking gear just in case, so between what I have, and what he brings, we should have more than enough in that department.

What is everyone's screen name? I was planning on having everyone wear nametags with their names on it.

Just a quick note, my wife, L@dyG1gabyt3, will be taking pics of the event. Since I had a vendor send me a gift, I should probably prove to them that I ACTUALLY did have a lan, and that I ACTUALLY did give the gift away. I will post the event pics to my facebook page as well, as long as everyone is cool with it of course.

My boss may also make an appearance. Now while on 1st thought it may seem a bit odd to have a person's boss show up to a non-work event, heres the upside. I have been trying to get him to sponsor a medium to large scale event for almost a year. If he can see that a lan could possibly be a good thing for the store, I may be able to talk him into getting a venue and setting up something larger in the future.... SO, even if you are bored off your asses, if he shows up, pretend like you are having the best time of your lives!

Thanks garfi3ld. I always knew that if you used a "3" in your name in place of an "e" you must be a good person!

Bad News.

Due to circumstances that are out of my control, I have to postpone the LAN for a week to October 2nd. If that day is a problem, let me know, I would like to schedule it so at least everyone who was planning to come can.

I apologize to everyone. If you have any questions, please feel free to PM if needed.
