    I say it's like trying to herd cats to hammer down a date. People who really wanna' roll with the SM crew IRL will show up. Make it so, #1.

    Knowing now how cheap airfare is, I don't think I can excuse myself from future LANs.

    I'd say let's just get a date in place, and those who want to join will be there.

    Whenever, just pick it by like February so we can put in for the time off early :D I would think earlier in June is better for me, generally.

    I think it should be not be marketed as a LAN, more as a huge social gathering.. with some gaming :)

    SM-LAN'07--- Name needs to stay. The planning for the event can revolve around friendship, food, conversation, and some gaming.

    I'm done with school no later than June 24th. As usual, after that, I'm open all summer.

    Hey Prof, you and I can help reign in the gaming aspect?

    I'd like to volunteer to design the logo for this event, and maybe the name badges. I just wanted to do something different this year.
