You can also pre-order from the website as well.

This is what I saw when I clicked the Shirts link on the website...it was like that a couple weeks ago...

"Sorry, ZapCon 2018 shirts are no longer available for pre-order. There is a limited supply available for sale at the registration desk, though, during the show. Hope to see you there!"

Yeah not my fault its outdated I'm just relaying what it said.

Don’t worry, they’ll generally announce when you can start pre-ordering T-shirts for the current year.

Good thing this isn't happening the same weekend. Because that would suck. ---fudgesicle--- everything falling into place. Oh well. Maybe I can get some BYOAC street cred now that Yots knows I listen to Suicidal Tendencies.

Crazy stuff I've done for Zapcon funds, exhibit A. My head was strapped to a chair for about 8 hours while I chased targets in the most boring video game ever made. I kept the mask as a trophy of my endurance.

yotsuya · « **Reply #207 on:** February 25, 2019, 01:39:14 pm »

That’s quite the gimp mask. I’ll warn MikeA.

Alright, looks like the room situation is squared away. Now I gotta start grinding on Southwest Airlines gift cards.

What will it take to get you to “Yep”?

Malenko · « **Reply #222 on:** March 14, 2019, 02:41:18 pm »

I can't say 100% till end of April. So I'm at 99.99% . time off won't be an issue, and if I can sleep on harumans couch money won't be either.

This is the same status I was at the last time I went. I dunno if I even got a 2 day pass yet

I still kinda feel bad for telling that kind on my own team who was talking SO.MUCH.---steaming pile of meadow muffin---. that he sucked. Then again I don't.
We were ---smurfing--- KILLING IT on Killer Queen though. Like 10 in a row or something?

So what’s the weekend plan? Not reading this whole thread.

If I fly out on Friday day and take a red eye Sunday will I miss anything?

Any weirdos looking for a roomie? I’ll bring an extra loofah.

Mike A · « **Reply #228 on:** March 14, 2019, 05:43:35 pm »

I have room. I can pack an extra zipper mask.

That reminds me of the nightmare one time I shared a room. It was a seminar for the lighting software I work on and this guy says "you won't even know I'm there". It included me picking him up along the way and driving him there. So I go to pick him up in Phoenix and he's not ready. Waited extra 20 minutes then I had to follow him down the road so he could park his car at an apartment complex since apparently he didn't feel safe leaving his car at his own house. He complained about it not being hot enough in the car and then I had to fight him wanting to turn the thermostat in the room up to like 85. He whined about my snoring and I said dude I warned you and I even have earplugs you can wear but you refuse to wear them. Now I never asked him for any money but I thought he might toss me a bit more than $50 considering how much I know I had paid for everything. I was ok next time it's worth the extra $50 to be able to put the temperature where the heck I want it.

This is like the year to do it. That would be the perfect timing. You’ll finally get to meet Ond and PBJ.

Hahaha... don’t worry, word on the street is that MikeA is tender.

Gilrock · « **Reply #233 on:** March 14, 2019, 06:07:04 pm »

Yeah I've already paid for a room. I don't think I snore but according to my friends I can set world records...lol. One time a big group went to Vegas for super bowl and my roomie couldn't take it and ended up sleeping on the bathroom floor so he could shut the door.

There's talk about hitting up Starfighters Arcade on Thursday night. Don't know how solid those plans are.
But a group of us are arriving Thursday and leaving Monday.

Last year I did Friday-Monday and it was fine, but this year I opted for an extra day to just chill with the homies.

Ond · « **Reply #235 on:** March 14, 2019, 06:58:27 pm »

Le Chuck is coming to ZapCon! Ahhh ha ha ha I picked the right year did I not? I might be a bit online retarded, but I'm fun in the real.....promise

Malenko · « **Reply #236 on:** March 14, 2019, 07:09:31 pm »

fine fine Im 99.99999999999%
I could lie and say 100% but I love you guys too much to do that. It'll be my last one for sure.

I'm planning on doing Thursday - Monday.

Oh, and I've shared a room twice at shows.

One time, nice guy but he snored and I didn't sleep. I drove home at 7am.

Another time, I slept on the floor. 3 other guys in the room. No blanket. Backpack as pillow. From 4am to 7am. Offered him $20, he said no worries, I went home. He spent the rest of the show telling people "pinballjim ripped me off on the room." When I asked him "wtf?" I got some weird "you should have insisted on paying me" response. God I hated the Midwest.

We are all good here in Arizona. It’s either gas grass, or ass.
