Midwest Gaming Classic 2009 roll call (March 21 & 22, 2009) Now with PARTY SIGNUPS!

[Perkar]

I'm in. The place isn't bad, but i still don't know why you guys bust a nut over that place...

well, i'm a fan of shitty hole-in-the-wall bars to begin with. and as carey put it last year while we were there, "this place has just the right amount of dirt and sleaze." or something like that.

having a menu with 40 different types of hamburger doesn't hurt it either.

[Carey85]

Would you rather we bust a nut over you? That's what I thought.

[Perkar]

Right now I'm planning on

Wizard of Wor

you had better watch out for carey. he is going to try stealing that machine.

[Carey85]

At the bare minimum I will curse at it and molest it. Damn worluks.....

I forgot about the burgers... I think i ended up with something that had a burger, pineapple, and a fried egg.

[Carey85]

I ate a hamburger at a bar in Toledo called the "Country Boy." It was a beef patty, a fried egg, a slice of country ham, and cheese. My guts were wrecked the rest of that weekend

Chandler, Jen wants a badge and Jake wants one that says KLOV.

Carey, I'll sell you Wizard of Wor. Tell Ricardo to bring a truck and I will bring that SNES store display with me also, then you guys can haul both back.

i'm also staying Sunday night, so plan on partying Sunday also.

[Carey85]

Man, I appreciate the offer but I have absolutely no room for it in this apartment. I also just signed a new lease which means I'm here for at least another year, and I have no climate controlled places to store it . As for Perkar and myself, our original gameplan was to drive back to Toledo after the show Sunday but if you guys are sticking around we might do the same. I can't speak for Perkar, though. Also, I'm hoping that we can get our tables adjacent to yours. I think Wyatt is the only vendor that is consistently next to you at the show, so hopefully something can be worked out.

[dylan0228]

I`ll take a badge! I should be able to make it considering the fact that I live 5 minutes from Olympia.

[Queen Of The Felines]

I'm vendoring again. Lots of promo stuff and some other crap.

Dave, you're bringing Punch-Out?? Holy shit, I LOVE YOU.

[Perkar]

i'm up for staying sunday too, as long as it means another night of LAKERZ

[Matt-El]

Sign me up for a badge, dunno bout any arrangements of staying down there or not, or money, but I want my badge dangit.

[Vectorman0]

I'm considering going to MGC provided I can find someone willing to split a room, and my tax refund comes through. I hope I can make it, as I have heard very good things about the show and Lakerz.

Question: Plane tickets to General Mitchel are half that of Madison. Is there any glaring reason I would want to pay double to go to Madison Airport?

[Carey85]

MGC is roughly 30-35 minutes from Mitchell Airport from what I understand, and the Olympia Resort has a round trip shuttle that costs $70 IIRC. Still cheaper than a cab ride looks like.

according to mapquest

Total Estimated Time: 44 minutes
Total Estimated Distance: 37.89 miles

There should be a bunch of DP people down there. Maybe someone can pick you up on their way through Milwaukee or go from the show and pick you up and drive back.

I would go pick you up, but I only have a 26ft Penske truck and I'm not taking that to the airport.

What days were you thinking about.

I would fly in Friday (20th), and leave Monday (23rd). I haven't booked anything yet, however. These were the best times for me that weren't $200 each way.

Arrive at Millwaukee 3:02 PM Friday Mar. 20th
Depart from Millwaukee 12:18 PM Monday Mar. 23rd

If someone was willing to pick me up and or drop me off at the airport, that would be amazing! I would cover your gas and then some.

I'm also still looking to see if anyone needs to split a room.

[Dan Iacovelli]

the airport shuttle is basically 80.00 now. last year I took it from the greayhound/amtrak station dt milwaukee to the hotel(it was 70.00 back then).
I wish somebody was willing to pick me up at the station, 80.00 is alot but it is chepaer then a cab.
I'm going be taking mega bus from chi-union station to Dt amtrak station and shuttle from there(I uaslly go the day of and leave after the second day)

[GrandAmChandler]

Badge List updated. Let me know if anyone else wants one or if I forgot anybody.

This will be my third year...and yeah, I would wear a DP badge with pride! Please include me.

[98PaceCar]

What's the closest big airport to fly into for this? With CGE dead again I may try to make a trip for this. Have to get my retro fix somewhere!
