Wait, there's a next year?

Slippyblade · « **Reply #441 on:** April 11, 2018, 03:19:04 pm »

ZapCon will happen, Yots simply said he won't be organizing a BYOAC get together.

Laythe · « **Reply #442 on:** April 11, 2018, 03:42:01 pm »

Ah, gotcha.

-- ZapCon BYOAC Meetup News --

OK, so we're about a week away!

In discussions with locals, friends, and organizers, we've set a loose schedule of events for the weekend.

Friday
Friday, at 5:00 PM, we're going to meet at the Oak Room, which is just north of the venue. I've reserved space for 25 people, as locals as well as our out-of-town guests can get together for food, beer, and song. It's close to the venue so we won't need to caravan over. Plus, the food is really good and the service is as well.

https://www.mesaoakroom.com/

Around 7, some of us are going to caravan over to StarFighters Arcade in Mesa. Many of you have been there, some have not, so we decided to make a quick trip that way. Anyone is welcome.

We plan to return to the Convention Center around 9 PM to then participate in ZapCon Contributor Night. Toxicwes has graciously allowed us to bring BYOAC out-of-town guests in that night. It's normally not open to the public, but he recognizes the great cost and commitment many of you have undertaken to come to the show (some of you multiple times), so they're going to allow you in. You MUST have the BYOAC Token to get in. What is that? More later.

Saturday
Group Photo at 2 PM. Informal dinner at Backyard Taco sometime that night. Ask around for deets.

Sunday
Sod off. Go home.

Oh, also, THE Richie Nucklez is going to be running around with our crew at ZapCon. Take photos, say hi!

Thanks for organizing all of this Yots!

yotsuya · « **Reply #448 on:** April 12, 2018, 02:01:43 pm »

No problem, wish I could have done more, but the stuff with my dad really was a curveball to life. It’ll be nice to see all my friends at the show and get chance to meet some new ones.

HaRuMaN, don’t forget the paddle, we have a few newbies to initiate.

Mike A · « **Reply #449 on:** April 12, 2018, 02:04:28 pm »

A paddle? Does that mean I should bring my leather zipper mask?

Thanks for making the plans. I'm looking forward to it. Oak Room looks like it has a nice menu to pick from.
Newbies - The paddle is your friend!

I wanted something a bit more classy for this last hurrah.

Nah, that can't be a real tweet from Trump, he didn't try to blame anyone.

Fake Tweet. It's coherent and doesn't have the same child-like adjective repeated twice.

opt2not · « **Reply #460 on:** April 13, 2018, 10:24:55 pm »

Jeez, H_C, you must be a hoot at parties.

Howard_Casto · « **Reply #461 on:** April 13, 2018, 11:04:18 pm »

So I tell a JOKE and because you don't agree with it I'm suddenly no fun... I think you've got it backwards there chief.

You thought that I was seriously refuting that it wasn't a Donald Trump tweet? I question your sanity. Then again you were offended by it and therefore probably a Trump supporter so there you go.

OK, y’all are my friends, but everybody ---smurfing--- shut up. This is just about ZapCon. ---steaming pile of meadow muffin---. Put your ---Deutsche Frankfurters--- away and focus on the fun.

Today is the last repair event before the show. I have two monitors in tow and I’m on the way to get them fixed. Fingers crossed!

That G07 has Missile Command burn on it. Took it out and put in one of the monitors I fixed yesterday. Much better. I’ll put the G07 into my Missile Command, and use it’s current monitor as a spare...

Can't wait till I get on the flight to Arizona on Thursday. This was my lovely view driving home from the MGC today.

Could someone please move this to the Zapcon 6 thread. I posted using Tapatalk and didn't pay attention to the fact that this is the wrong Zapcon thread.

Does anyone know if you can pay at the door, or do you have to pre-register? I have a prior commitment with my daughter for most of Sat and Sun afternoons, so not sure what day/time I can get to ZapCon, but definitely going to get there. The website didn't have any info on that.
Thanks,
Eric
