I wont be bringing a computer (again) but i love the social environment! Some friends and I will be there the whole time staying at the hotel. If any of you guys want to meet up give me a call while the event is going. (256) 694-4332.
> I'm definately going this year, and I'm bringing a computer that I built to the BYOC. I won't be playing in the tournaments this time, because I don't play Quake4 or Enemy Territory. However, I will enter my computer in the case mod contest, just to see how it measures up to the other entries. Wish me luck .
hey, im here. Working on the et stand all the days so I wont have much time to hangout during the day and im not sure what the plans are in the evening. If anyone is comming down come and say hi, my room number is 1575 so you can leave me a message!!

Frankie> I can do you one better. My case mod CES arrived at the hotel around 11PM on Thursday. I have it set up in the BYOC room, and you can come by and see it in person if you'd like. Getting it into the BYOC room was kind of tricky, because the cops there apparently thought I was on drugs or some shit (acting weird, dialated pupils, yadda yadda yadda...) I may pop by sometime after sunrise if I can remember.
Lee3dee> I live in the small town of Lumberton, which is in south Jersey, and close to Philly. There's a whole lot of farmland and wide open spaces down here, and I can't walk to the supermarket like I used to before the move from north Jersey.
Think we are all getting together again today at some point,V has to buy a Car this morning,Im going with him todo that,but I think we plan to try and be back at Qcon for about 2pm this afternoon,where we going drinking with Sean,Frankie etc,think that the plan,we can stop buy the BYOC and grab ya though.
creamy: your only about 44 mins away on the NJ truway from me. Anytime you want to get to gether, im usually open on weekends, unless im working at the office.
We're currently changing our project's source control software at work. What that translates to is we have to tear the entire project apart and then put it all back together. i have to reassign all the shaders back to my assets manually and replace them back into the new directory structure. not a huuuge issue.. but it needs to be done and we're doing it on saturday while we have full control over the server without others trying to use it as we do this.
Yeah,I loved it this year,kicked alot of arse. Especially us lot sitting on the pathed area by the gossip bar and just offering random people to come and sit with us and drink beer.
Met lots of people and gnerally had alot of fun!! Also V invited me back next year so i might be able to make it,whoot!
HELLZ YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Next year baby, this was the best quakecon ever aparently, all thanks to rubber boy, ah well, should be even better next year.

Agreed, good to see you at QCon Frankie. You shouldn't tell me to say such things to girls when I'm drunk though.
QW kicked some major ass. Looking forward to the release.
