Everyone,

As you all know, Shatnerball 2 "The Wrath of Tom!" is coming up very soon.

We need to find out who all is going.

If you are defintely attending, please post:

1. What state you will be coming from.
2. Are you flying or driving.
3. What hotel/motel will you be staying at.
4. Did you register with spplat yet or not.

The purpose of this is to help other AO members find rides and carpools if people are having issues getting out there.

Not to mention, I wouldn't mind having an AO caravan following me to the event.

The AGD Staff will be staying that the Super 8 Motel on
650 Old Front St
Binghamton, NY 13905

We will hold an AO/Wang/Blackcell (they were the originators of this) party here (my room as it is a single). Room number and date to be determined at the event. It is BYOB and the same rules apply everyone can attend, 21 and over allowed to drink.

Updated: Albinonewt (Defender of the AGD Cougar) has been very very generous to get a room for us just to party in Sunday Night after Shatnerball (very much like last year). He will be bringing a 2 level mini fridge that will be used to chill drinks in the morning until the night. Kayle is still clearing the second room for those who may be underage and not allowed to drink to have a chilling time there. Please feel free to PM me for more details. Albinonewt will also provide garbage bags, chips, and party essentials. Tips will greatly be appreciated (all proceeds go to Albinonewt, Wyn, and the cleaning staff of the hotel.

Please post and let me know. Current attendees from AGD will be:

Would there be a convenient way to see if people have room to share in their hotel room, or if singles and doubles can join up (no, not hook up) to lower individual costs for hotels?

I think our rate is about $50.00 a night. or at least very close to it. Check it out. It is only a 25 minute drive from the field.

I will have more details coming up very soon as to what the AGD drive schedule will be looking like.

I only used your paint the one day, I had my own for the next day :)

And its not that the paint would be a lot, I just don't feel like dropping $100 for a days play. Castle Conquest is a month later and only costs like $35.

3. What hotel/motel will you be staying at.
Camping at the field, actually need to get a group of people together for the spot. Right now myself and mistwolf are trying to get people to share a campsite. You have to have four people according to EMR's website but word is three will reserve a site. Check out the tread Shatnerball 2 : Some pre-reg info you'll need to know (http://www.automags.org/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=93137) to help us out.

4. Did you register with spplat yet or not.
But of course.


Well we got enough to reserve the site now.

Although MUCH closer than last year's SPPLAT Attack(actually feasible for me too attend), I don't think I'll be able to make it. Too close to the start of school. That, in addition to not having money for more than the paint I find on the ground, my parents hate driving me more than 30 minutes to play.

In the slight chance I am able to make it though:

1: New Jersey
2: I have two feet...
3: I hope they'd have tent room..
4: No

Maybe in two years when I have a license. :(

Just got my confirm for the game today.

FYI... I saved over $150 on my airfare by flying out on the 2nd instead of the 1st (Labor Day).

Coming in fron CA. Delta Flt 5713 arrives BGM 8/29 12:42 AM.

Planning to stay at the Comfort Inn, but that might change depending on the location(s) and expected quality of the players party(s).

Still working on the mini van, might have to settel for a car. Either way, I'll have to take a cab to the hotel because none of the rental desks open until 7AM! But that will work out for the better $ wise even with the cab fare.

FYI #2... Rental car companies clock rental days from when you pick up the car. If you pick up your rental at 9am on the 1st and return it at 3pm on the 2nd, you could get hit for 2 days rental. By picking your rental up later in the day and timing its return to match your outgoing flight time, you could save as much as $100.

Well, except for the fact that they do hurt. ;) It's just most of us are used to the feeling. And they hurt doubly if you are completely not expecting it...

I did that just to check how fast it would go. I had an Eclipse GS (stick) before it and had that at the same speed, so I wanted to check the new car when I got it.

hehe, I actually got pulled over for that once ... 103 in a 65, but it was like 5am and I was heading to team practice and I just explained that I just sort of lost track of my speed since it was so early.

Since it was early and there were no cars on the freeway (and I'm pretty sure he saw my PB Gear on my seat) he let me go WITH A WARNING ... it was great!!

Then a month later I got pulled over for doing 76 in a 45 and got a ticket, but it was only civil since it JUST went from 65 to 45 around the turn and I didn' tsee it so he didn't give me a criminal ticket

Yep, Blue got back to me and just said to bring the email I got when I registered and he put my name down for our campsite. Maybe it was easier for me because someone else reserved the campsite and I'm just joining the group.

AutomagRT1483, I only received one email and suspect my spam filter might have caught the second. If you have a separate folder where these go and it's not too late, check there.

This just in and will be updated on www.shatnerball.com:

To reserve Free bunkhouse space or a campsite, you must provide the reference number that you received from SPPLAT when you pre-registered. To insure that you get a campsite or bunkspace, you must be pre-registered by AUGUST 24th. No spaces will be assigned after AUGUST 24th; they will be given out on a first-come, first-get basis until they are full. E-mail your name and SPPLAT reference numbers to Blue at [email protected] to reserve your spot. You must have 4 people pre-registered to reserve a campsite. One car may be parked at the campsite. They are 20' x 20' areas. You may also camp and park your RV on site, provided you reserve space.

We're coming down to the wire!!

Talked to JJ this noon and got my reference number over the phone. E-mailed BLUE on the campsite, so I should have a response from him soon. Although, I did have a 12 minute conversation with JJ and was informed that the Cavalry and the Cyborg teams are about the same size. The raiders and the posse are the same size too. So as it looks right now, Shatner wont be having an advantage in the number of players. But, there are still a few more days to get your butts registered so do it now. :D

I need a vote from you guys. Which color would you want this sticker to be printed on. It will be on vinyl and designed to be placed on the rear window. Those that will be carpooling with Gunga and myself will receive one for their window for caravanning purposes. Please decide if you want white or silver. There will only be 20 printed out. After we have given one out to those participating in the caravan, you can pick these up for only $10.00 each. First come first serve!!!

As it stands out, the caravan will be leaving sometime on Thursday. The time will be established hopefully before the week is over.

Please pm me your votes. I will need an answer by tonight!

I will also try to update the list tonight as well.

Sounds like even the Caravan will be fun! Too bad I'm coming from the south :( I had a change of plans and won't be using a camper at the site after all. Not really a change in plans but a monetary smack in the head from my wife, Trina. (who will also be attending and playing) It seems the Camper rental would be more expensive than a Hotel in Binghampton! So we will be within Crawling distance of the AO party at the Super 8. That is of course if you don't mind having "AO's Official Drill Sergeant" making sure everyone is behaving themselves.:D Just kidding.:D I'll be letting my hair down for the first time in a while and I really am looking forward to meeting everyone.

Unfortunately, I had a motorcycle accident a few weeks ago and I am not going to be able to play, but I will be attending the AO Dinner and slobering drunk slumber party afterwards. Thordic, what day are you going up, maybe I'll just follow you...and my car won't explode this time, I promise!

Some fool in a van was making a left hand turn, so I was traveling straight on his right when for some reason he decided not only to NOT make the left but to swerve right into me. Silly people. Second Motorcycle Accident in 2 years, you'd think I'd learn.

Anyone can join the festivities. So long as they are responsible and "preferably" a member of AO :)

If someone isn't they can always sign up there if we have internet access

Hey Jon and fellow Caravaners;
I will not be able to leave from Detroit area until very early Thursday morning. So it looks like I'll miss the caravan. It's probably better since I'll be pulling the trailer and all but I expect we will be at EMR by early afternoon. (Can I still get a sticker for my truck?)

Anyway, myself, a few guests and the Mayberry Marauders have one of the cabins so you are all welcome to stop by and introduce yourself. I'm just not sure what cabin we are in but the MM team banner will be hung by the door.

If you really want car-bombs I can bring the Irish Wiskey, some Gunissess, and some glassware spesificly designed for those drinks. We'll have to get more Guinissess if more than 5-6 people want to try one.

I've been to PSP Philly, and LI Big Game, as well as at least 3 social/private business trips to the USA as well as 4 Millennium events in Europe... I'm also going to be at World Cup.

There is a small store near the I-81 turnoff called the "Pump and Pantry", where you can get ice. For beer you'll have to go a ways North along the Rte 11 almost to the next town. There's a beer store on your right.
