I'm rather flexable and would probaably attend any of the gatherings.

Are we going somewhere within walking distance or do we need people with cars, and How many people are planning on coming?

I work at a sanding and shaping job in a factory right now where foam ear plugs are mandatory...we have a huge box of them to get new ones every night...they wouldn't miss...a few

I could bring like 20 of them or so even.

We could also do a late nite get-together and hang out in someone's room or something (not a party, just a hangout) after the screening ends. Saturday, I'd definately be up for meeting a few minutes early and getting everyone to sit together.

That's an excellent idea. Hit both major showings back to back, all in one group for extra viewing pleasure, head off after that for god-knows-what late into the night. Sounds like a hell of a plan.

Plus, I'm sure lots of AMV people submitted goodies for the MAT3K, so catching that in a group might be worth it.

Might I also suggest getting together for fan parodies?

Does that mean you're volunteering? =P I just planned on going to Target or something and picking up a handful. I know they have the wax ones there, but I really hate those. Foam ones are squishier and a lot more comfortable.

You may. It would be nice if a schedule mainifested itself online...same for the names of the AMV finalists =P

Didn't they post a schedule online last year like 2-3 days before the event?

Though if past history is any indication, we'll find out if we made it sometime next week or so.

If it works out that we need chilling room, I have two rooms and a bunch of roomates who have no say in the issue

Why you asking if it is walking distance, we have my car and plenty of gas, come on

as for meeting before the contest, fan parodies, and MAT3K... I'm up for any of them I just need to know the schedule when any or all are decided. Also we not do something after the AMV panel depending on its time of the day.

as for hanging out, i'm cool with that. Unfortunately i can't offer my room to hang out in.
