We should have pricing and dates for Vegascon 2008 out to you guys
next week (we hope). The Sahara's new owners took over management last
night so I should be able to get some coherent and consistant
information out of them soon. They've been a right bit of fun nailin
down...

Anyone else looking forward to it as much as I am?

Which reminds me, if anyone has anything they'd like to see put on a
group activity list it's never to early to start throwing out ideas.
Shenney and I are already thinking about the group dinner as well as
which show we want to attend this year. Input is always appreciated.

And as usual, we can always use more help planning this baby so if
anyone's interested in chipping in behinds the scenes feel free to
volunteer now. Or next week...or next month, or the week before. We're
always open to more people helping out!

Ooh, ideas!  I would like to suggest that, even though Marrakech is great and all, we go somewhere different this year for a group dinner.  They didn't change the fixed menu between 2005 and 2007, and I'd like to dry something different for a change.
 
I'd also like to throw out the idea of going to Lucky Cheng's, which is a drag karaoke Chinese restaurant.  I've been to the NYC location, and it was quite awesome.  The food was great, the drinks were fantastic, the drag queen wait staff was a riot, and the live shows and audience participation activities were amazing.  http://www.planetluckychengs.com/
 
Thanks again, Cheryl and Shenney, for all of your assistance in researching our best options for Con location and date.  (And by "assistance" I mean "doing the whole thing.")

Any chance you people with an "in" to the "man" can get him to put up
a pole or something on the DR website to see how much interest we
might have this year.  I'm thinking it should be better than last
year but I'd like to see some rough numbers.  Looking forward to
another fun year at the Sahara and any normal kind of restaraunt
sounds better than indian food to me.

~Matt~~Terc~

Here's the poll I'd like to see

1. Definitely going no matter what
2. Probably going but depends on dates
3. I always say I'm going but never do
4. Might go
5. Might go if Bubba drags his sorry ass there this year instead of a
conference call where Terc has to run down and argue with the front
desk for 10 minutes on whether they have a speakerphone or not after
being told by the manager they do have the speakerphone and having to
pay $10 for the luxury of using a speakerphone instead of trying to
hear Bubba on Jolebin's cellphone.
6. Vegas ain't my thing

Hey All,

Haven't been to a vegascon in like 4 years, but I reeeeally want to
make this one.  Any ideas on dates?  Also if you need help with grunt
work, I'm down with some slave labor.  Just let me know what needs
doing.

If any of you have been to a ton of these you would probably know me
as the bald girl (no longer bald.)

We are currently aiming for the end of Febuary.  Based on the website
prices it looks the fourth weekend... I'll know more once I get the
group sales office to stop transferring my phone calls. =)

Grunt work is always acceptable.

Here's just a little run down of a quick search I did for some
possible fun dinner places to have our group dinner!

1. Lucky Cheng's (David's suggestion that looks fun! They won me with
the word Karaoke.)
It's a drag queen cabaret comedy karaoke restaurant that's basically
an off-Broadway show and dinner. (http://www.planetluckychengs.com)
Cuisine: Pan-Asian
Price: $32-$40 for salad, appetizers, entree, dessert (basically the
full shebang). It is served family-style much like last year's Marrakech.

2. Imperial Hawaiian Luau
I'm not sure if they'll rerun the show in the spring during February,
but it's basically a Hawaiian Luau buffet with hula lessons,
sing-a-longs, fire knife dances, etc.
(http://www.imperialpalace.com/entertainment.php?subid=59)
Cuisine: Hawaiian/Polynesian
Price: $35 for General Admission Adults (Better seats for more money)

3. Excalibur Tournament of Kings
It's your typical jousting show! Medieval theme!
(http://excalibur.com/entertainment/tournament_of_kings.aspx)
Cuisine: American/Medieval
Price: $59

4. Quarks Bar and Restaurant
Woohoo! It's the Trekkie experience! (http://www.startrekexp.com)
Cuisine: American
Price: ~$17

These are just a few ideas I'm tossing out. Please feel free to chime
in if you've heard of a restaurant in Vegas that sounds fun that
you're dying to try with a big fun group!

I think you may be getting the dinner theater, which should be fine as long as
you aren't
allergic to horses, mixed up with one of the roller coaster style movie rides,
where the
coaster moves around without going anyplace.

Diner theater:
http://www.excalibur.com/entertainment/tournament_of_kings.aspx

"4D" ride:
http://www.excalibur.com/attractions/spongebob4d.aspx
This used to have another theme, back when I rode the ride, something on the
order of a
space shuttle runing through asteroids, firing off lasers, and a space dog
fight, if I
remember correctly. It is one of theose static roller coaster rides, where you
get all the
bumps and shoves without actually moving anywhere.

I believe that there is a similar ride, Star Trek themed, associated with the
Las Vegas Hilton
where Quark's Bar is.

-----
As another alternative, I seem to remember that a group of us had an enjoyable
time at
Benihana's at the Las Vegas Hilton a couple of years ago, too. Let's ya stop at
Quark's
afterward if you want, too.

Actually, unless Excalibur has changed in the last two years, there is
a sign outside the dinner theater that warns off athmatics.  No matter
though, I can skip it.

Given that...I doubt we'll chose the Excalibur as our group dinner
option. We do try to be able to include everyone.  =P

We still have a few months to figure it out. *grin*

Febuary 21st - Febuary 24th, 2008!

SAHARAH:
Sleeping Rooms:
2/20/08-  $55.00 (for those arriving early on Wedn.)
2/21/08 - $55.00
2/22/08 - $120.00
2/23/08 - $120.00

Not only did we work out a better deal than last year but these are
also for DELUXE rooms! The average price for Thurs.-Sund. will be
$98 + tax.

Con Registration.
After a lot of talking amongst ourselves we finally came to the
conclusion that the rates would have to change. However, we really
disliked raising the rates so we finally came up with a compromise
we could live with. We're really running a tight budget this year
due to the space we have reserved, if we don't have enough people
registered online we'll have to downsize. This means we'll risk
being in a cramped area if too many show up at the door. Therefore,
we've lowered the pre-reg and raised the door price in order to give
you guys yet another great incentive to book early. But really who
needs to think past drunken booze and partying with your fellow DR
addicts?

Pre-Registration: $30.
Registration: 	 $45
Door: 	 $60

We'll have exact dates of when Pre-Reg and Reg. will close once I
talk with Bubba and see when we can get these posted to the website.
If anyone has any questions feel free to get in contact with me,
David, or Shenney...or just post on the boards as usual.

That said, now it's onto the fun part! Planning schedules, deciding
where to host the group dinner, oh and my favorite part. Wrangling
up folks to head the guild meetings. Right now, we need
uh...liasions for every guild. Feel free to volunteer away at
anything you'd like to host, set-up, arrange, lead, head, debate,
finance...etc...

Thanks All!!!! More info coming soon!

Oh, and since I'm a tard I almost forgot to mention. Con
registration for non-players will be $20. That includes spouses,
SO's, players who are inactive, or just anyone you drag along to
hang out in the suite.

If you have any questions feel free to email Shenney, David, or
Myself.

Hey!  Hey!  You!  You!  I don't like your girlfriend.
No way!  No way!  I think you need a new one.

Keep your drink; just give me the money.
It's just you and your hand tonight.

Attention all artistic ones!

We're looking for a new Vegascon logo, since it's been years since the
last one and an update would be nice.

Would anyone like to try their hand at this? It doesn't have to be
crazy large or complex. We're just looking for something that we could
put onto badge holders, possible t-shirts, shot glasses, etc.

Please submit your graphics to me at shenney@... and if you have
any questions, also feel free to contact me!

Thank you!

I'd also like to add that the official theme for Vegascon 2008 will
be "Operation Vegascon". Mayhem, secrets, plotting, and assassins will
all be part of the fun. It's shaping up to be a fun Vegascon. I can't
wait!

Registration is now available through the DR website. Just go check
out available events.

Just a reminder, early registration only runs through Thanksgiving
Weekend and it's at the lowest price it's been in years. Only $31 if
you confirm your attendance now!

So go go go...and um, register! And stuff!
