We are narrowing this down to a pretty positive date range. If things stand as they are, we are pretty sure this is going down on either the weekend of July 22nd or July 29th in Warren, MI.

Registration will probably be $20 as it was last year. I'll get firm info such as what to bring, what to expect, etc. either today or tomorrow.

Sorry it took so long, things were very discouraging for a while, but Keebs came through with a monster plan and now the ball is rolling again. Post in here if you can attend on those dates.

    If I have a car, I will be there...especially if I'm working in "the haute" this summer.


    Edit - the next weekend would be even better for me, I think.

    We're trying to come up with dates, nothing is set in stone yet.

    We picked that weekend so far for the following reasons:

    1) It gives people time to plan, it's still several months away

    2) It's in summer, before school starts (right before for some people)

    3) Shorty can make it

    We can make it later still, but I'm afraid that the school season will cut heavily into attendance if we do that

    We have one group of people that are good to go in July, and another that August works better for.

    I always hate this part of it. No matter what dates are chosen, someone won't be able to go :(

    According to this poll the best date range was late july.

    How about July 22-24 or 29-31?

    I'm not sure. My classes finish at the end of May but the graduation is on the last days of July. After that, I'm not sure when they give the college board (sat equivalent for you gringos). To make things worse, I was planning on looking for a job right after I finish (or when I finally get my driver's license). I'm probably good to go in August but then I'd have to plan which bank to rob to get the dough :scratch: I thought the class was gonna pay me when it finshed but they paid monthly so things aren't really going as planned. :shakehead

    July is certainly a lot better for me than August; I'm getting married Aug 13, and leaving for my honeymoon on Aug 21.

    So i want to narrow the dates down so that we can make an official official announcement. I'll put up a poll.

    To help matters along - if either weekend is okay for you, please don't vote. This is only for people who cannot make it on one of those two weekends.

    Hmm my 21st is right between those dates. The weekend after will pretty much be reserved for getting drunk off my ass the entire weekend.

    I've got a race the weekend of the 22nd, so the 29th is much better for me.

    I guess this thread said something different earlier? I missed it

    If I'm able to attend travel-wise, it'd be after July 29. In fact I might fly over Detroit that day (Chicago->Baltimore... well not quite eh :))

    Yes, there will be 6mb cable.

    Dammit! Still tied! I'll let the poll stay open for one week from today, so on Friday the 20th I will make the announcement of the final dates. if it's STILL tied on that day, I guess I'll have to flip a friggin' coin or something :grumble:
