Good luck finding some!

*sigh*

Well, much as I was planning to make it, I cannot now (looks like I wasn't put on the list initially, which is probably a good thing, so at least the numbers work out!).  We just bought a house, so...again, like last year and needing a new car + wedding, I can't justify the cost at this time.  Promotional raise next year will make it pretty easy finance-wise.  I could probably make it work, but the responsible thing to do is to be safe and frugal with the money :(

Seriously, the fuck is wrong with me?

Positive note - DLCon Pittsburgh may be a thing in several years once the house is good to go!  So...yay?  Seriously, though, sad, since I haven't been able to make it in a while.  You guys better have Skype or something set up so I can bitch at Super during the Con!

I've figured this for quite a while now, but I really can't come.

I had to take three weeks off of work for surgery which has left me both broke and unable to take time off of work. So showing up is a pipe dream at best.

Confirming that I'm in.  Since nobody else seemed interested in a hotel, guess I'll join the group at the house anyway.

As a note: It sounds like the house won't be available for Wednesday night / Monday night?  Should I book a hotel for those two nights specifically?  (And if so, anyone else want in?)

Also.  Does anyone in Vancouver have a PS4?  Slash is renting one?  Should I grab some of my (ludicrously over-expensive) PS4 controllers if there's going to be the likes of Towerfall shenanigans?  (Note, that game was made by Vancouverites who all lived in some weird gaming house I believe...)

Probably not a mini-meet this year - still getting the house put together and REPLACING SHIT THANK GOD FOR HOME WARRANTIES.  But perhaps the year after. 

Super - PM sent.

I know I'm a little late on this,a nd should have responded early, but I'd be in for chipping for a hotel in for one night anyway, since I'm going to be in the "I'm coming early and can't get to the house" predicament.

It's ~120 CAD for the night, so okay with spending ~60 CAD?

I want to make a joke about refusing to spend more than 59.99, but I think it's just easier to say "yeah, that's cool."

If anyone is interested in going to a play, please let me know as soon as possible! There is Romeo and Juliet on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday and Othello on Sunday of Con:)

I'm very interested in Othello, and would go to R&J if others are going in a group on whatever day is most convenient for them.

We'll be leaving at noonish on Sunday so Othello is out by default, but we'd be interested in R&J for the sake of seeing some Shakespeare!

It sounds cool, but I think going to an event that requires not only native English, but some solid knowledge of old-timey English might be excluding Shun by default.

So working out the Con costs, it will be about 150 USD or 200 CAD per person for the house. I have an American bank account, so I can deposit checks for free, or you can pay with American or Canadian cash.

Consoles here in Vancouver will be: PS2, 360, WiiU. If you wanna play something on the PS4, you should bring your own!

I've been looking at the weather, and it looks like (though obviously it could be wrong!) that the weather will be around 70-80(21-26 C) during Con. It might be a little cooler in the evening, although not all that much.
