New, Official Poll For PSU Meet-Up

[Everay]

well, it depends now, my mum said that if i raised the money shed consider letting me go, im dropping off 3 more job apps today and picking up another two. but see, if its during school year, which i belive this to be, (september) then i cant go, well, mabey since it is on a weekend after all, i could take a plane early friday morning.

Uhm, 2 major problems with this get-together.

a) Its after summer vacation is over. Some of us College students would appreciate the get-together being during a holiday break or (preferably) summer vacation.

b) Its in fucking FLORDIA. C'mon, couldn't we put it somewhere in the mid-east coast? That way us New Yorkers don't have to take an expensive flight? Hell if it was in Virginia or something it would be nice, a short flight and a less-hefty plane ticket. Better yet, have the get-together in New York! I'd love that

So basically, I prolly won't be able to come due to point a) and point b). Bad time, and too far.

Maybe I'll propose a north-east get-together or something... but it sure as hell ain't gonna be at MY house...

a) I don't know what college you go to, but taking a long weekend is usually not that big of a deal.

b) It's a $200 plane ticket... almost as cheap as they get.

Well, its kinda like RIGHT after classes start for me, so I'm kinda reluctant to miss any classes (first impressions ya know?). Also, if it was closer I'd drive... I'd be willing to drive up to 8 hours anywhere. AND if I was making more money it would seriously help... right now the cost of a plane ticket is 2 weeks pay for me...

We'll see I guess... if you guys had some Devs come I might be a little more inclined to save up for the flight and "be unable to attend class due to sickness" on that Friday.

edit- If I manage to net a decent job this summer there's a good chance I'll come.

Actually, I might go, if the devs do come.

[Triggar]

That'd be great if you could!

[Triggar]

Seven people to go! Come on guys, we're so close!

We could move it to the end of the summer (August 20-22) if the CDL guys can come to that... I like having it in September because then CDL can hang around if they want to and join us

[Infernus]

I tossed in ym vote... theres a 90% chance of me going... even higher if it does get moved to august...

I might be able to get some flight discounts, and if that fails, I'm going to my mums (stupid bitch I ran away from) and stealing all her air miles

I think the brits here (3 musketeers ) might be able to organise something

[Triggar]

Awesome!!

I've been planning and plotting for the better part of the evening, I just got off the phone with a LAN center in Orlando, and this thing could turn out to be so completely awesomes.

one problem with letting the devs go: everyone in the PS community will want in on this. that could be a big problem. Im sure some people would go just to yell in smokejumper's face saying : "YOU SCREWED UP ON THE THUNDERER!!! ILL KILL YOU!!!"

I personally think a limit should be slapped on... like a must post on PSU by "XX" 2004 or a certain number of people only... you have to remember this is a PSU meet not a PS in general meet...

b)....how about the west coast?
