In as soon as I can get it all scheduled and priced.
So no one is surprised when they get access to the Expo rules, we are re-enacting our 2011 ban on liquor. Somehow we forgot it last year (derp), and we preferred Expo without it.
As much as I like booze, I can understand it, and I will respect it.
The liability release form is arguably the funniest thing I've read this month.
For those who cannot or have not registered yet:
I understand accidents happen, Detroit has a higher crime rate than the suburbs, and I will be staying in a 100-year old home with all sorts of old nasty things in its walls, leaks, and a carriage house that could fall on my head at any moment. I might fall down stairs, get pushed out a window, get shot, or hit by a car. My computer or gaming gear could be ruined by rain or high impact. I accept the risk of unknown disaster and laugh in the face of it.
I therefore release and discharge all event officials, the home owner, residents, volunteers, peers, sponsors and municipalities that might cause me to get seriously hurt. I also release the group home residents across the street who will inevitably ask me for a dollar, and anyone playing darts drunk. I understand standing near the dartboard is a bad idea.
By submitting this form I certify that I am responsible for my own actions and the safety of my personal property. In other words, I won’t sue any of the people or groups responsible for this event if I get hurt or my stuff gets broken or stolen. And if I am under 18, then my parent or guardian is signing this release.
Speaking of which: there will be cork extending 1 ft. under the dartboard. If you miss the dartboard backstop AND the cork more than once, you instantly lose your current game and are banned from darts until further notice. :P
Guys, if you are interested in a Hotel.. go to hotelclub.com and boot the St. Regis Hotel. Unless Brian says it really sucks, it doesn't look bad, good part of town. 2.2 miles away (8 minutes) on Grand Blvd.
Right now hotelclub shows 1 king bed for $60 a night.
@Ryder No, I hear Hotel St. Regis is great, it was simply completely booked for Oktoberfest.
Here's a link, dunno if it'll expire. $67/night for 2 queen beds.
Note it is not walking distance, nor would I recommend walking to New Center even if the house were closer. The immediate vicinity of the hotel is safe, though.
Or I could go colloquial for a bit. (Though when that happens no one knows what I'm saying)
No one ever knows what you're saying anyway.
The happy blue bunny jumped over the old logging camp.
Silly Ily, ice cream can't jump.

Does this mean I'm not allowed to come?

If the universe keeps working against me like this every year I may never get to another EPIC again.

OK.. edit.. I am booking through Orbitz.... same price and they don't do everything in Aussie dollars (like Hotelclub).
Check out the limo and the "fancy" car, nice photoshop there. I may be mistaken, but that is the presidential limo.
How can you tell?

Two, in fact: FIRST time that I bought my ticket the FIRST day it went available.
