Because we should have one, and because the sooner plans can be nailed down, the better.

When is the Boston Convention again?

September 30 - October 2. Official site .

Man. Why are all conventions WHEN I HAVE SCHOOL!?!?

/rant

I reeeeeally wanna go to one sometime. When else will I have an excuse to be an uber!g33k???

sure sounds fun...Never been to Boston before.

Every time you come to Legion World, of course.

Well, yeah. But I meant dressing up and all that jazz!! And, like, in RL. I mean, if I can't go to Con, how'm I gonna meet Geoff Johns and convince him to marry me?? I can't leave stuff like that up to chance!!

WHAT WHAT WHAT??? You mean you guys don't dress up like your avatars when you log on to Legion World?

My avitar's a bunny. I don't have a bunny suit. Ergo... no.

BUT if I did have a bunny suit... Oh, the possibilities.

Darn it. Then I guess I look pretty silly sitting at my desk in this B5 outfit.

Only to those foolish mortals who question us! And at least you're clothed!! I'm betting some people *cough cough* Cobalt Kid *cough* don't bother with that...

Well if Pov & I can get down to Dallas, there is no reason you can't get up here. Road trip with Beagz perhaps?

Caliente, it is on a Friday, Saturday & Sunday. Assuming that you would fly from Cali to Boston, you'd only miss one day of school. Fly in Thursday night, fly home Sunday. I do have some floor space available in my apartment.

I wouldn't bet against you...let's leave it at that

Well, usually I just wait until Pov and everyone sorts these things out .

But I will definitely be in attendance! I can’t wait to meet everyone who I haven’t, and see everyone I have again! Like I said, I’ll see what Pov, Quis, everyone want to do for logistics, but I’m fully committed! (to going, not in the ‘fully committed’/asylum reference).

So—shall we expect to see Faraway Lad in attendance?! And I know Loser Lad is going to try to do everything in his power to make it down.

Can’t wait to meet you in person, Miner!

It'll be worth it, Des! OM is the TITS!

Aww, you're so nice to offer, but I don't think the cost of airfare to Massachusetts would fly with the 'rents (who are currently my largest monetary providers) because I'm going to MA a couple weeks before for family stuff AND I bullied them into letting me take a side trip to Colombus for a weekend while we're there.

So... yeah. Maybe next year. Or if I have some sort of sudden windfall -- that'd work too.

I'll be there, barring some catastrophe. What needs to be planned? A place to meet?

That would be a good idea. At Dallas, we used the DC booth as a meeting point.

I have been thinking of restaurants we could go to on Friday & Saturday nights. (chea..er inexpensive but nice)

Since so many of us are planning to attend, maybe we could find a hotel outside of Boston (which might be a little cheaper) where we could all stay. We could then carpool back and forth to the convention. If people don't mind sharing accommodations, we could always get double rooms that might sleep 3 or 4 people each, thereby cutting the costs down even more

Well, I won't need a hotel room. (I live a 15 minute walk from the convention center) I have offered a limited floor space to those who might need it. (the cost is cheap at twice the price ) Pov also offered floor space at his place and plans to drive into Boston each day. I think Faraway Lad has already booked a hotel room or plans to get a fly and stay package deal. And Portfolio Boy was planning on staying at the Double Tree which is right at the convention center.

i live bout 45 mins west of boston and will be there Sat. or Sunday. Love to hook up with Legion Worlders! Hopefully there is a big group of us attending

You are so full of ideas... I like the part about you guys comming back to Dallas.
My bad read that wrong. hehehe
Guess I can look at my schedule and see...no promises but will make an effort.

Have no Fear I shall Return!

What miss the chance to hang out with you lot again, Never! I just hope Des brings his drinking head.

As for accomodation I got a package with a B&B but as I'm at work at the moment and cant remember the name. But Boston has a good subwway system so I can get around pretty good.

I'm arriving Thursday and flying out on the Monday.
