MiniCannuck Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 Okay, I'm getting a bit stoked about this convention. I hope info goes up soon so I can get my ticket and events booked. Speaking of booking events, I think that event registration for GenCon is noon on the Sunday of ReaperCon. Is there WIFI access at the convention so I can make sure to get this done right at noon? Last year I hit send right away and was still 492 in the cue. We didn't get some of our events. Ahhh, the trials and tribulations of convention season!

Shakandara Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 Kit has had open wireless access available to con goers in the past. This, of course, is no guarantee that he will do so again, but it's been available the last several years, so I'd say it's a fair guess that it will be. There are also a couple PCs over at the BW, as well a wireless access there. Depending on what your plans are on Sunday (i.e. not getting to Reaper early, or taking lunch around that time), you could do it from the hotel too. ~v Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MiniCannuck Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 Thanks for the info. I was not sure when the auction took place or how far the hotel was. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shakandara Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 The BW is about 10 minutes from Reaer. The auction is usually shortly after lunch (i.e. 2pm-ish). ~v Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heisler Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 I think you can count on the auction starting earlier than that 12:30 - 1:00 would be my guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bel_Amore Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 Woohoo! We just booked our hotel and we're roadtripping with Cutebutpsycho so no flights to worry about booking. BTW, we booked through hotels.com and got $76/night at the Best Western Lake Dallas. Pretty darn good price! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Briathel Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 1. I will be there. Briathel will likely as well. 2. Most of us stay at the Lake Dallas Best Western, up off IH-35; it's closest, and that's where the artists hang. Briathel WILL be there.

haldir Posted February 28, 2012 Share Posted February 28, 2012 Anyone know if any of the flight sites will run a Leap Year special tomorrow? edit: Appears that Frontier airlines is the only one offering Leap Year specials, OH BOY!!! :rock: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inarah Posted February 29, 2012 Share Posted February 29, 2012 $69 at the Quality Inn Denton. It is the same distance as the BW, but they serve BACON at their breakfast buffet (and the BW did not last year.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pole Posted February 29, 2012 Share Posted February 29, 2012 Well I am local to DFW but decided to book a room this year. The hour drive back and forth last year was a bit much after classes and games. Just wanted to give a heads up that the BW is just about out of rooms for that weekend. So if you plan on staying there book soon! Last year's ReaperCon was my first, and I don't see myself ever missing it again if it can be helped. ReaperCon is truly a unique experience and the people and atmosphere were amazing last year. I have been waiting all year and its almost over! Also if there is still room, I would love to get a demo of Warlord this year. I played a few themed games last year and they were great. I am dragging 2-3 friends with me this year and I know they would all love to give it a go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stubbdog Posted February 29, 2012 Share Posted February 29, 2012 Pole, That can easily be arranged. Several people have been asking about demos. Looks like I will need to start up a demo sign up list or something. Separately, as I am also of the 1 hour local (my group plays in Grapevine every other Friday night), maybe we can arrange to get together before then if you want. Just send me a private message if that works for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luethar Posted February 29, 2012 Author Share Posted February 29, 2012 Well it's official. I am booked at the Best Western. Gimme a hollar if you need a ride to or from the con to the BW! Lue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
haldir Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 Finally bought my ticket down there! I think this is the latest I've done that, ha ha. Anyways, I'll be arriving on Weds the 16 at/around 2 pm CST. As I noted before, I'll be having a lay over in Minneapolis, MN. So that'll be a first for me. Oddly there was a flight that was more but it had 2 stops (Minn. & Memphis). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Murray Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 Oddly there was a flight that was more but it had 2 stops (Minn. & Memphis). Don´t complain about your flight Haldir. Mine will have two stops, one in Rio de Janeiro for one hour and one in Houston for six hours :-( LOL I guess I will just faint as soon as I get to the hotel hahahaha Eager to meet you ;-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
haldir Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 Oh no complaints. I actually don't mind the 1 stop. It lets me get out stretch, get something eat + I like seeing new places. It's all part of the trip for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
