Members SamuraiJack 22569 Posted May 16, 2014 Members Report Share Posted May 16, 2014 For Worldcon we won best party.. I don't know if they won it again at last Chicon or not. If ReaperCon is big enough, and the hotel and Reaper are willing to let us, I'm hopeful we could come down and throw a bash at least once. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

MissMelons 32744 Posted May 16, 2014 Report Share Posted May 16, 2014 Honestly, the sweet loving I did to my pillow at night, I probably couldn't have heard our neighbors partying. Then again, considering the volume of snoring the Mr and I did, I'm surprised Bonwirn got any sleep at all. @[email protected] 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Qwyksilver 16622 Posted May 16, 2014 Report Share Posted May 16, 2014 Sadly, with the change in date, it seems unlikely I will be able to come next year. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mocha 2220 Posted May 17, 2014 Report Share Posted May 17, 2014 If I recall the hotel was pretty strict with their policy on when the time is X then GTFO! I'll never forget-- the first night of the Con, and the hotel turned off the lights in the ballroom around 11pm. There were still a few tables of people socializing & painting with lamp set-ups, etc. It happened so suddenly and someone shouted into the dark, "Um, nice try but we brought our own lights!" I think it's at that point where ReaperCon "breaks in" a new hotel-- and the staff realizes just how dedicated we are to this hobby & yearly event. 10 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ShadowRaven 56071 Posted May 17, 2014 Report Share Posted May 17, 2014 Yup. I remember that well. Bryan had come over and joined us at Corporea Corner at that point. It was really quite amusing 6 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Members SamuraiJack 22569 Posted May 17, 2014 Members Report Share Posted May 17, 2014 The hotel only has 165 rooms.. figuring they might hold 10 rooms for big wig points members, shouldn't be too hard to fill 155 rooms.. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Pingo 109317 Posted May 18, 2014 Report Share Posted May 18, 2014 Can we have an old boring people floor for us party poopers who go to sleep early? ;-> Yes, please. When we're at a convention we always ask to be on a "non-party floor." We tend to turn in by 9PM and are awake by 4:30 or 5AM. One time I had to get up close to midnight to ask a party two doors down from our room -- which wasn't supposed to be there -- to please pipe down or move. It helped that I was barefoot in a long nightgown, pregnant enough that I looked like I had swallowed a basketball, and about a foot shorter than everyone there. I spoke quietly and gently, and the festive giants, mirabile dictu, took it somewhere else. 10 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
