Two in one year just to get into an April groove for the long run? sounds interesting :)
FMGC 2013 - Planning, Roster, Suggestions, Invites
-
What would be sweet is if we could have pages dedicated to specific games and perhaps talks of times/dates and who will be playing/sign up sheets etc. I have an old game called civilization (but of course my true love is A and A) and would LOVE to play, it’s best played with 5-6 people. The day of the event is probably too late but if we could have various pages dedicated to each game/version it should allow for people to get a feel for new games and know in advance who else will be playing and when.
I’m pretty sure we could set up something for that on the FMGCon website pretty easily.
-
Great idea, I assume that individuals making a long trip and paying for a weekend pass, might think twice about coming if they invision themselves walking around aimlessly. I know that as a first timmer last year, having our game and its participants planned out ahead of time made me feel comfortable about what to expect. Can’t wait to see the website!
-
Looking forward to it. I need to book my flight soon or else the prices go up.
Why is it double to fly to YYZ compared to IND? It’s roughly the same distance. :-P
Is YYZ Toronto? I told you last year you should fly in to Buffalo. You’ll pay half even when you factor in the rental car which is also double in Canada.
-
Yes, YYZ is Toronto.
The problem with flying to (anywhere in) Canada is that there are insane Airport charges and taxes added on. One of the many reasons a lot of Canadians fly out of Buffalo!
-
It would be cheaper for me to fly out of seattle to Buffalo too. (HALF)
If another party wants to work out a deal, I’m willing to plan flights-meet in buffalo- and share car/transportation?
-
The opportunity cost here is time, which equates to money in the sense of vacation time. I would have to take an extra 1.5 - 2 days off of work. With that in mind, Buffalo would be more expensive than Toronto. Damn that math stuff! Plus, direcct flights are nice and last year I was upgraded to first class for free. Woohoo!

Wow, the difference for SFO to BUF isn’t that much. It’s only about 67% - 75%.
-
Oh… well in that case. I’ll look at plan A.
Still need a CONFIRMED date though!
-
Jeremy said he’s getting very close to a date. Actually, isn’t the date set, he’s just keeping up all in suspense for the arrival of the FMGC website?

You would never do that to us David!
-
Yes, the date is set. We’re just waiting on the committee go-ahead to anounce it officially. Any day now.
-
I’m 15 minutes across the border from Buffalo, while I can’t enter the US I could pick anyone up at the border who is contemplating a route via Buffalo.
-
DJensen- Check out DTW and let me know.
Then I just might be persuaded to actually drive up. It’s a 3.5 - 4 hr drive from my area. That is IF there isn’t any traffic in TO. But there always is!!!
That also means you would have to spend a certain amount of time with me in a closed environment. A scary thought to be sure. :-o
All that though would be dependent on the date chosen. August is out for me, so keep that in mind.
-
@Craig Yope I think direct to Toronto is the only way I can make this trip happen. But if you’re only 4 hours away, you should definitely join us.
puts an envelope to his head and says…
"August"opens the envelope and reads…
“A month when FMGC won’t be scheduled.” -
