Do you know what time we should be there?


As the date nears, I also ponder this question, as well.

I believe 10am on Saturday for set up. If you can't make that, 3pm for meeting and lunch. I hope this is right but will wait for confirmation from TX0338.

I was thinking the same thing. I'll should be there about 11am if that's ok.
I also was thinking about picking up some ink for the printer to help out some with that. wink
TX0338, is there a good place to pick up some HP Vivera 02 ink?


Edit:
Just noticed on the Griffin's home page, it has Star Wars night march 31st up! cool Jiri Fischer will also be there signing autographs, perhps I'll bring my red wings jersey. wink

EDIT EDIT : 11 days !!!

If anyone is interested in getting together this Saturday afternoon let me know. I would like to do a test run of our photo system. If you have a costume and want a good picture of it we can take pictures then.

I wont have the hardware this weekend to do our test run so it looks like things are canceled. That will give me some time to put together the PDF that will explain most of what will be expected of everyone next weekend. The PDF should have enough info so that way we know what to expect for the day.

Later,
Donavon

Ok, I just did my part for attendance... I just bought 11 tickets for my family and friends.
I hope some of them pay me back!!

I talked with my boss and it looks like I'll be able to get out of work @ 2:30pm, so I should be able to get there by 3:00.

D, I'm sure Rome would let you put it on the MWG for downloading. If not, I have lots of room on BlastyLava.com and we could even put it on R2-Detroit.com. happy

Ohh, an Aliens quote! That movie is in my top five favorite films (I just lump SW together to make room for others). grin
