EXO Posted January 12, 2006 Posted January 12, 2006 I included less June and more August to make more time for people to finish their customs. I also removed the weekends that SDCC and AX is on. DO NOT VOTE until you are absolutely sure that is the weekend you want to hold it. When we are closer to the dates in the poll well take the top 3 and make another poll. There's plenty of time so decide carefully and make sure you're free that weekend. Hopefully we can decide early enough so the highest amount of members can make their hotel reservation and book their flights early enough. Thanks. Quote
Mechamaniac Posted January 12, 2006 Posted January 12, 2006 15-16 for me. My Wife wants to come out with me this time, and her B-Day is the 18th, so it would be a cool trip. Plus, any later than that gets in the way of Otakon on August 4-6. Quote
yellowlightman Posted January 12, 2006 Posted January 12, 2006 I'll no doubt be in school and working during the summer, so no vacation plans to get in the way. I'm open for just about any weekend. Quote
azrhino Posted January 12, 2006 Posted January 12, 2006 Is anyone out there checking into if/when Mari or any other guest speakers might be available? I'm refraining from voting because it is easier for me to know when the Con will be, and plan accordingly. Quote
nightmareB4macross Posted January 12, 2006 Posted January 12, 2006 I'd say, June 17-18. It would be a great start, just before summer. Quote
BoBe-Patt Posted January 12, 2006 Posted January 12, 2006 I'm cool with whatevers. Just let me know ahead of time to prepare. Quote
KiriK Posted January 12, 2006 Posted January 12, 2006 yea.... i'd love to meet Mari.... how about someone try to book her first and see when she's available and go from there!! haha.. Quote
robokochan Posted February 5, 2006 Posted February 5, 2006 I voted August 26th - 27th.....cause that is my birthday! Quote
Knight26 Posted February 9, 2006 Posted February 9, 2006 I voted August 26th - 27th.....cause that is my birthday! 366843[/snapback] Sweet mine too. I have no idea what weekend will be good for me yet, depends on what flying projects we have going on, and whether or not I will have to be taking any transpolar flights. But hey I would vote for 26-27 August as well. Quote
valkyrie312 Posted February 11, 2006 Posted February 11, 2006 I would personally rather have it in June, as school starts in TX in early August (and band teachers have to report back in late July already). I know, I know - we get more time off than other people, but believe me, we pay for it during the school year! Quote
duckie81 Posted February 12, 2006 Posted February 12, 2006 Since it's still too early for me to predict a good date, i can only suggest it not fall on the 4th of July weekend like the previous MWC Quote
Solscud007 Posted February 20, 2006 Posted February 20, 2006 I was actually thinking of having it on AX Sunday. that way people who come from afar can go to that on saturday, monday and tuesday. Anaheim is really close to irvine. 15 min drive. Quote
Mechamaniac Posted February 20, 2006 Posted February 20, 2006 Are you taking over the planning Nick?. Hopefully. Quote
EXO Posted February 21, 2006 Author Posted February 21, 2006 (edited) Are you taking over the planning Nick?. Hopefully. 372017[/snapback] Nick's always been in charge of MWCon. If KidKorrupt was here, he'd be the "co-admin" I just thought we agreed on a big poker tournie the night before MWCon. Nick? Edited February 21, 2006 by >EXO< Quote
nightmareB4macross Posted February 21, 2006 Posted February 21, 2006 Isn\'t June 17-18, Father\'s Day Weekend? I think a few of the members might not be able to attend it the Con is held on that weekend. Quote
Totoro242 Posted February 21, 2006 Posted February 21, 2006 (edited) I'm coming out for Anime Expo from Denver and can attend the weekend before or after possibly. Otherwise, I can't make it. I'm not sure if very many others are planning the same.. If it was the same weekend as AX, I would 100% be there Edit: Now that I think about it, I would like the weekend before so I can spend the 4th with my family. Edited February 21, 2006 by Totoro242 Quote
Solscud007 Posted February 21, 2006 Posted February 21, 2006 yes i have always been planning it yes there will be a poker tournie sat night if it is the weekend b4 that is too big a spread of nothing between MWCON and AX. So sunday of AX is prolly best, Quote
BoBe-Patt Posted February 21, 2006 Posted February 21, 2006 I guess I won't be going to AX all four days like use to. Unless my friend puts up the booth again, then I'll go and help them out. But other than that, MW con sounds good around that weekend. Quote
phatslappy Posted February 21, 2006 Posted February 21, 2006 Where's the poker tourney going to be held? I might be able to host that if necessary. Quote
Solscud007 Posted February 22, 2006 Posted February 22, 2006 Where's the poker tourney going to be held? I might be able to host that if necessary. 372471[/snapback] and where would that be? we havent decided where to hold it. preferably close to anaheim if have it onthat saturday night of AX Quote
Fortress_Maximus Posted February 27, 2006 Posted February 27, 2006 Quick questions: 1- when is the deadline that we can cast our vote for the event date? 2- do we have an announcement date set yet for the results? Thanks. Quote
EXO Posted February 28, 2006 Author Posted February 28, 2006 the poll is more or less to get an idea to see when people want the con. Or when most people would be free and we can get the most possible attendees. But at the end it'll be up to Nick to figure out the availability of location and members. It's like an electoral college. No, there hasn't been a date set. You guys will see the announcement if there was, why would we try to hide it? Quote
UN Spacy Posted February 28, 2006 Posted February 28, 2006 If I have enough time off from work I choose the last weekend of July. Quote
Jasonc Posted March 2, 2006 Posted March 2, 2006 I voted the weekend after AX. That way, it fits right in with people also staying for San Diego Comic-con if anyone is planning for that. I'm leaving for vegas the day after AX, and coming back on that saturday, so I'm in for the MWPT (Macross World Poker Tournament) Quote

Eternal_D Posted March 3, 2006 Posted March 3, 2006 no can do june 24th weekend, best friends wedding, and yours truly will be the best man. and 2 weeks prior would be no good as well cuz that's when I have to fulfill my role as best man and throw him one awesome of all awesome ass bachelor party. I voted jun 17-18 but like NM pointed out, it's fathers day weekend. I say nicks idea of having it on the sunday of AX might not be a bad idea. Quote
