I have a few Starwood points left that would probably do for a suite for one night, if we decide to do something Wednesday night at the Bonaventure, or even some other time. We could book a room at regular price and I can use points to upgrade. At the meeting I did in Atlanta in November, we got the Presidential Suite and it was a two level suite with living room and dining room area as well as a bar. We were able to fit 125 people in it.
HOLY **** That sounds like an awesome room. I like the sound of a hotel party

Something like that might definitely be a possibility for the Wednesday, except that 125 isn't very many people, obviously. I'd like to find something that can fit at least 200 comfortably.

Well, the Holiday Inn get back to me and unfortunately space is not available. Still waiting to hear from the Bonaventure.

Have you heard anything about the 501st planning something? I read on the RL boards that from what they had heard the 501st was just interested in something for themselves, and the RL doesn't have any plans at the moment, but if nothing is made jointly they are probably going to arrange a dinner or something for their members. A really good thing at C3 was the fact that it was one party for all fans.

Anne, that's kinda the impression I've been getting. I think the problem is that there's just not a location that's good for everyone.
I'm still waiting to hear back from the Bonaventure. If nothing's come in by Monday afternoon, they're getting another call....  .

Somehow it doesn't make sense. I mean everybody is comming to LA for CIV, but then they all splinter off in their little groups. It reminds me of the high school dances I used to attend way, way, way back. Wouldn't you want to party with all the SW Fans and not just a select group?

I also think it's sad, especially since I'm a member of both FF and RL, and it isn't nice if one has to choose which party to attend, instead of just going to one party for all fans.

I guess that the RL doesn't have anything planned as of yet, we could possibly do something with them, then we don't have to split between the two. The 501st are the ones that are getting all exclusive on us, but that's Imperials for you.

There will be a LOT of people coming to this convention. You can't possibly meet 'em all. That's why some groups have their own parties. You've got a better chance of meeting up with people from your group if you set aside a time to hang out together than trying to find each other in a big, crowded party of everyone.

The C4 party (if they do one) will be the best place to meet a larger group of people. But I think a JC party could encompass 501st, RL too. If we have to, we can certainly just make it a JC party.

Finally heard back from the Bonaventure, and it's not looking too good there, either. The banquet space that is adequate (at least 200 persons) can be held for us on a second option, but that's no good for planning purposes.
We may just have to agree to meet up within another function.

Is FanForce going to be sponsoring any programming at CIV? From their web page it sounded like CIV was taking proposals. For example, panel discussions for various fora that want to supply panelists, like, meet 'communications' or 'literature' or 'whatever'? That would be one way of meeting some people.

Not that I know of. There are going to be fan "club" tables, but I haven't heard who has gotten those yet. I know Miana Kenobi put in her application for a FF table.

Then why don't we do what has been discussed in the other threads, meet at Disneyland and/or Universal Studios? At least they are open, available and they will have the capacity for us.
Since our choices of a party in banquet space is growing thin, it is, seemingly, our only available option at this point.
