Well Cobie, I've got a double booked, with no roommate yet. You're welcome to crash there. But leave the sheep at home.
Just spouting off.

For anyone who doesn't peruse other sections of Legion World... I've got a shop that will make t-shirts with a Legion crest embroidered on them. I can place an order by the end of April, and we'll have them for the convention. Black tees, a variety of sizes, cost is $16 a shirt. Anyone interested send me a PM.
Just spouting off.

I highly recommend people take up CJ on his offer! It would be way cool, and have a more visible presence as LWers.
And, we'd be easier to spot each other in the crowds/in lines/etc... especially those of you who haven't met any/many of us before - we can recognize each other in a jiffy!

OK, here's a deal for someone (or somefour). Last year, I booked two hotel rooms. I, of course, can only sleep in one and got roommates. That leaves the other one empty.
I'd be happy to transfer ownership of said hotel room to someone. It's a Ramada within easy walking distance (830 6th Avenue if you want to Mapquest it -- not on the official shuttle route but probably very close to a stop). The total will be $2,085.36 for Wednesday-Monday. It's got two queen beds, so room for up to four, which would make it pretty cost effective (for San Diego).
First person to PM me, I'll work on getting the room in your name (and on your credit card) and put you in touch with other people who PM'd me so you can get roommates.

Seymour, thats an awesome offer and I hope someone takes you up on it! CJ already contacted me via PM, and I'll be rocking out with him.
That is, if I'm not in some alley somewhere with lotus fruit.

I arrive on that Thursday, but late, around 10:00. So I want all of the old (re: over 26 crowd) to get a nap in early that night, as we're all going to be partying all night long until the wee hours of morning!
Then I'm there all Fri and Sat, but have to return early on Sunday morning (flight is at like 8:00 AM). But I'm glad I get two full days in!
Now we need to get the word out to young Hollywood that I'm setting up the first ever Legion World kissing booth!

You're in luck Cobie. They've got a spot set up for in West Hollywood, great location, lots of action for attention.

Frontier Airlines just sent me notice, round trip tickets to San Diego are a mere $125. Since I'd have to fly out this weekend, I'll get all of San Diego ready for the Legion World invasion.

I just got an email from the Stratosphere in Vegas (where we stayed 2 years ago) for $69 rooms, a free Heinekin mini-keg, plus free access to the tower attractions... but it's only for April/May visits.
If I do go to Vegas and meet up with the gang, I'd rather be at the Luxor anyway... but it was still a tempting deal.

Be sure you can get back if they get you there.

San D attendees:
Should we start a list-serve for attendees to share planning info? Dinners, arrivals/departures, hotels, etc, without the whole wide world knowing?

that would be an excellent starting point.
later on, we can discuss food preferences, and even how to handle lunch. I myself would prefer to avoid the mass exodus over to 5th Street at lunchtime; I think we could do better by going in on lunch supplies from a supermarket, or even ordering pizzas.

So who gets designated to collect and distribute all the info?
I'm guessing it'll be you, Kent.

I suggest a raid on the 24-hour grocery store near the convention center.
