Shatnerball Roster II

[Tack]

Thanks Soldier, I guess I am just worried that I will get there and they won't have any of my info. I did get a conformation on regestration but I don't know where it is.

[Load SM5]

I got my shirt, packet and info fairly quickly. My shirt is already worn out and stained. I need another one JJ. But I signed up a long time ago before the rush. Any of you guys flying should be aware that there is a discount code for a few airlines for people taking a plane to Shatnerball. If you signed up but have;nt gotten the packet you may want to get that before you buy tickets.

[Tack]

I actually signed up at D-Day for SPPLAT but for the game in March. I was told by J.J. that there would be an info packet sent out with stuff on the game. I may have been mistaken but I don't think so.

Folks, according to JJ at SPPLAT, the Borg team is under-manned! We need players and we need them now! Just 15 more people are needed to create the elite AO Sqaud! Think about it - 50 experienced, Mag toting AOers against 2000 trekkies wannabes! Sounds like a fair fight to me!

If Cphillip is coming I might be able to get my Dad to bring me. He had a lot of fun with him and Fatman in JErsey.

Tack:
I recieved my stuff for SPPLAT membership pretty quickly. I love carrying that member card around with me . I am sure you will get it soon, JJ is probably pretty busy with all the planning right now.

845:
I spoke to cphilip at jersey and neither him nor Fatman had plans on attending Shatnerball...but they did have an awesome time at the Level 10 party, so who knows?

cphilip & Fatman:
You two were a blast, you have to come to Chicago...it wouldn't be an AO party w/o you!!!

Packets and Stars and Stripes

Packets were delayed due to new info that needs to be included. These will go out in the next few days. As for the Stars and Stripes...You did win but the one I have is missing some of the literature and I expect that to arrive tomorrow. When it does I'll send the marker to you at the Ashland, MO address I have.

Thanks for all the info J.J. I'll be looking for the marker in the mail.

And here I was thinking I might get to meet uncle phil and fatman in person. We should start a petition to get them to come.

I plan on bringing both my markers with me to the Shatnerball game. I have an SFL and an Angel IR3 that I will be using. Obviously I'm not going to be using both of them at the same time. Are there areas other than the staging area where these can be locked up or is it up to me to secure my gear myself. I.E. pad locks and chains.

Just curious because I don't want anything to turn up missing as I have personally had cash and my cell phone ripped off at local fields. I know you have to carry everything with you because the parking lots are too far away to leave stuff in the car. Anyone know if they have lockers at CPX? What are you guys all doing to keep theft from rearing it's ugly head?

[MagDog68]

The one decent thing I can say about Skirmish is that their parking lot is right next to the field for special events. I was able to keep all my stuff in my car and take a quick 5 minute walk between it and the playing field. I would NEVER leave my E-Mag ungaurded at an event like that.

Parking at CPX

Parking at CPX should be close for most everyone at the event. You will need to carpool from the hotel if at all possible. Best parking will be given to those with 3+ in a vehicle.

[2000Sabre]

Any one who is planning on attending Shatnerball you better reserve your hotel room if you haven't already done so. I called five hotels in the Joliet area before I finally found a room. Looks like things are filling up fast.

Pad locks and chains are recommended... although I've left my stuff out and have never had it stolen at CPX, over the numerous times I've been there.

There are no lockers at CPX. And yes, the parking lot is quite a bit away from the "central park" staging area.
