Looks like I get to make this year's thread. :P

How are plans going for this years assault on Columbus? Tournaments, dealers room stuff, Lovecraftian LARPing, NSDM, trashcans, hotel rooms? Mostly interested in the hotel room thing, whether or not potential crashspace is available.

I should actually show up this year. Will Ruckus be returning? I still owe him the consumption of two shots of ouzo (probably three now with interest)

Hmmm... still in the dark about this one. Will have to let you know.

Might make it out for a night. It's closer than anything else. :)

Well, unfortunately the General and I will not be able to attend this year's Warigins due to a prior commitment (the General has to be in a show that weekend). We will miss gaming and partying with you all, but we hope to see you at other cons, or at the very least at next year's Warigins!

Have a drink for us!! :)

I may, out of lack of funds and low PHC presence, also need to bail out of Warigins this year... I highly encourage anyone else who can attend to really tear it up this year to make up for the lack of presence. Be really loud around other gamers late at night, and generate large amounts of trash so all nearby trashcans are overflowing with your generosity. Also, Make sure to "accidentally" dump an entire cooler of ice in the hallway between the convention center proper and the food court, otherwise the security guards might get bored in our absence.

I only have a couple minor concerns/questions: Without most of the Brass attending Warigins, where and when will we have the Next CULT tournament? Will Pvt Darkhorse remain our Illuminated Messianic Champion? Will I ever get a chance to put my extensive CULT practice into play? :p

I'll be passing through Origins, probably Wednesday night, en route to PHC Headquarters-- but I'm not exactly sure I'm up for running the Cult tournament myself! I'd love to have dinner/get drunk with any Corps brethren and sistern who're around, though.

I thought you, of all people, would be a constant presence at Warigins, Ellie. Assuming I make it (which I should), it's looking like just me, Two-Pair (if he's running his usual events) and whatever of the Columbus crew shows up?

Now I'm double-pissed about missing the con last year.

I will indeed be there... but now I have to figure out what I'm going to do for accomodations, which may be difficult considering the short term of this notification.

I own two cult sets, so that has the makings of a start of a Cult tournament. However, If I don't have a place to stay within walking distance, I'm really not able to participate, because driving schnackered back to a hotel room is not a good idea.

I assume this also means there will not be a PHC booth in the dealer room as well.

Well, I haven't given up the PHC reservation at the Hampton... if you can find people to share with, it might be doable and I'm happy to transfer the reservation to you.

Correct, there will be no PHC booth. Last year we only did a little more than break even and I'm just not willing to fall below that. Still, I'd be psyched to hit Origins but this stupid fucking show scheduled dead in the middle of the weekend where I told them not to schedule it. Besides, if we did go Chaos Kid would just weirdly no show us anyway.

The break in tradition in the annual CULT Tournament is a real bummer but last year's was the fifth one anyway and so a god place to stop. Looks like it will have to be held at DragonCon this year.

I can look to see if I can get enough people to share a room at the hampton. That's an awesome hotel, and if I can swing it, it would work great.

I have come up with an alternate back up too. Because I run so many events, I get something besides a free badge. I normally opt to get the vouchers for the food court and dealer hall, but I could opt for getting a free 1/4 of a room, which is ostensibly attached to the convention center. Worse comes to worse, I've got a place to walk toward drunkenly after partying.

That said, I am willing to pick up a couple more sets of CULT at DieCon this year, to have enough to run our CULT tournament at Warigins this year, assuming I can get sanction from the Elite to do so.

Is a rank of captain high enough to run a tournament? :)

Soooooooo. Most folks will be at DEMF during Diecon and I actually have class both days but I will be there Saturday night for the Spycraft LARP. If you want to place your merch order in advance I'll bring it with me.
