2013 SUMMER FTF

Posted: Wed Jan 23, 2013 3:17 am

Thought we would share our conversations ........
HOPING TO SEE EVERYONE THERE.

GREAT! (I am probably the only one who preferred Atlanta, but Orlando will be a better venue for most.)
An early announcement, especially for those trying to get vacation time off would be wonderful and probably beneficial for RSI. Heck, while you are at it, announce the Jan 2014 Face too.

Thanks. Yes, it's looking like Orlando--I just received a contract yesterday, and it looks good, but I am going to try to reduce the room rate a tiny bit before I announce. I also want to check one other possibility of having it at one of the resorts, rather than just a hotel--it sounds as if a lot of people are planning to bring their families, and that might be more comfortable. I hope to have something firm in place by the end of the week, or next week at the latest.

A nicely run and enjoyable FTF. Good job!

Am I hearing Orlando this summer? Not Atlanta?

I still use my AOL as well. Probably just because I'm used to it and a billion business contacts know my e-mail address...

No, rather, it will be very, very hot!

I know. I am originally from that part of the US. The deep south that is. It is very hot and very humid. If you haven't been that far south, dress lightly my friends. lol

I will be there but probably not as a player! I couldn't get off of work either day (friday or saturday) plus really have nothing to send and have been concentrating on Hyborean War. It will be good to say hello though! Looking forward to it.
