It'll just be 72 hours of me singing your praises and telling anyone who will listen how great you are, and at the end you kick me in the junk.

No but rly Chicago is scary and far away and I'm poor and I've already got my yearly PAX East voyage to take care of, I'm just here to do what I do best and shitpost

This is shaping up to be quite the meet.

Ive not been to Chicago in May. Is it going to be horrifyingly hot?

Ether · Post Post #478 (ISO) » Tue Feb 09, 2016 8:08 am

Is there a post that keeps track of what days people will be here?

It can also snow, as it apparently did on Mother's Day in the mid-1980's once.

...please come visit anyways?

Snow is fun

Snow is fun, ice belongs on a skating rink or in my fridge and not on the road

A note to Canadians that may want to attend! I will probably have a spot open in my car if you want a ride and I am probably available to pick up anywhere Torontoish (like try not to be super north Toronto plz) and south.

If you are interested, message me! I will post here if said slot is taken.

Chicago should be pretty beautiful in may.

As an aside, the housing fell through. The lady messaged me to tell me that they double booked. I am on the prowl for a new place.

Just wanted everyone to know. We'll have one. It might be slightly more expensive, but we will get a space.

Probably booking a flight this week! Best option right now looks like getting in at 7am friday and heading out sunday evening.

Who's staying for more than the weekend? Is that still a thing some people are doing?

Iecerint · Post Post #491 (ISO) » Sun Feb 21, 2016 3:55 pm

I think I'll try to fly down a day or so early. I'll have my internal medicine schedule next week, so I'll know more at that time.

Chevre · Post Post #492 (ISO) » Sun Feb 21, 2016 4:07 pm

I will get there on two at thursday. If that's "the weekend"

Cabd · Post Post #493 (ISO) » Mon Feb 22, 2016 2:25 am

I'm staying like YEARS.

Get on my level.

BROseidon · Post Post #494 (ISO) » Mon Feb 22, 2016 3:30 am

Chicago is definitely a cool city.

What are the acceptable dates for flying in?

I want to go but I need the cheapest airfare and least disruptive work schedule to have a shot.

So put me down as I really want to but we'll see. Not likely but possible.

Titus · Post Post #497 (ISO) » Wed Feb 24, 2016 4:16 am

Bump...

not sure what airport you'd prefer to fly out of but those links can help

People are mostly arriving Thursday or Friday (12/13th) and leaving that Monday it seems.
