I'm glad you cleared this up, 'cause I would have been left in the dark without it.

This weekend does look a little suspect (even though you posted it so far in advance) on account of the whole "moving in" thing.

[alteredstates]

thank you for the sticky adam!

[munkie]

Fuck your 4x points tournies.

And as far as product goes, did you forget Eventide or will that be too good for us to pick? And Shards won't be out til October.

WAAAAAAA, PrePubesant College kids are going to school. This is the weekend after worlds I would think that may keep the attendence down more than a few teenagers from the cuse area crying about the weekend.

I would surmise that you will get the cuse people and the Rochester People. All the people who are going to Indy will probably have their magic budget Tapped for the month of August.

We all can't be 50+ years old Bob. 90 in your case. Old man.

I almost want to attend this so I can scrub out on the day after my birthday.

If the ride situation works out, I'll be there.

[OffTheWall]

So far we have a car of 2 from Wmass going. Hopefully we can fill up and get out there. It has been quite a bit of time since going out to NY.

Rob was highly considering scheduling this event one week earlier due to people moving to college and the end of summer sort.
