There are now fewer tickets (24) than days until registration closes (26), and we've been getting more than 1 registration per day over the last week.
Please keep in mind that the number of tickets is a hard limit. We've accepted last-minute over-the-limit registrations in the past but I built that padding into the number of tickets available already.

It's what you've been waiting for - Prag and I are in.
So, I'm 99% in! YaY! I'm not gonna order tickets or register just yet, because, well, it's up to my personnel officer at this point, whom I will try to sweet-talk a little.
I do however have a question:
Can someone prettyplease borrow me a computer of some sort? I demand nothing fancy, just so I will be able to play L4D and TF2. My laptop is the king of suck when it comes to gaming, and my desktop is a bit too big for flight handling.. I can bring mouse, keyboard, network cable and other essentials, just not the computer and monitor.
I will be bringing a tent and my sleeping bag, so as long as I can find a free patch of ground in the ICHQ garden, I'm all set. Said tent has room for three adults to sleep incomfortabely, and two comfortably. That means that if some of you don't yet have a place to crash, I have room for maximum two more in my tent.
Also, I know I won't be allowed to drink, and I'm fine with that, but what's the legal smoking (cigarettes) limit?
Due to the reason that some of you know, my Expo funds are directed elsewhere so no attendance from myself and Doris this year. I am truly gutted about missing my favourite 10 days of the year and not being able to introduce to you guys to the Killzone goddess.

SHORTY TO THE LAN FUND!!! :thumbup
If we raise like 300 dollars for our dumb servers every time you give the word im sure we can come up with a few hundo over the next few weeks.

My mother passed away three weeks ago today. The cost of the funeral even with lean trimmings has been high and there are financial things with my parents estate that are not funeral cost related that need assistance. I am the only member of the family with the income/funds to assist this and we are still ploughing through the mind field that is left behind. My family are very close but distributed all over this little country. I have driven 2400 miles in three weeks. I know that my attendance in Icrontic has diminished a lot in the last year or so. This has been the reason.
My work was very generous in giving me three weeks off to travel to be with the family. However I have to return to work and get life back on track. This has been tough as you can imagine. At the moment, June isn't that far away and I have a lot to think about. Personally, I am ok. I have some personal things to resolve, a life to get back on track, my head to kick back into shape.
So I ask my Icrontic brethren to do just this one thing:
If you can go, GO. If you have some worry about it but you can afford it. GO. You honestly will regret not going. This is a wicked oppurtunity to spend time with the finest group of people that I have had the pleasure of being in the presence of. You will have the time of your life and experience a diverse group of incredible people. DO IT.
If you are going to raise a fund, raise a fund to bring those who cannot afford to go, so they can make it. Be the community to support those less fortunate.
If my circumstances can be resolved, I WILL be there in force. If not, I will be there next year
I am on the fence, I want to, I have a vacation the week following so getting the full experience might not be possible, A couple days though, it could happen.
I know your close to me, wonder if any other Icrontic folk are from around Baltimore? Maybe a mass car pool?
a car pool you, say? i might could do that. we'll discuss.

Anyone? Anyone?

place to get the tickets for the expo?
Oddly, there is no legal smoking age, so you're set. To buy cigarettes, you must be 18.
Also, note that puts us at 20 tix left after the dragons finish registering. (over 60% gone now)
In honor of jokke, I present the VIKING smiley
:jokke:
Next year instead
:sad2:
we could always take another trip across the Canadian border
This thread is making me cry...

Woopies... June != May ...........
Second, let's see what shorty has to say about this; he may have multiple reasons for not being able to make it.
