Who's going?

Post by Sudan Red »

As a recluse (well, sorta), I need to mentally prepare myself for possible social interaction. WHO'S GOING SO I CAN RUN BACKGROUND CHECKS? #notreally #ORMAYBEYES

Seriously though, I kind of started leaning towards going when I heard Erdwolf was going. I've "known" him since 1999 but haven't met him. It would be great to hang out with him & others I "know". #notastalker

As you correctly stated, I'm going. Already registered, just need to arrange flights and transport to Bloem.

And yes, it would be awesome to actually put a face to the fursona. (That goes for many of you fuzzies, too.)

I'm attending ^.^
It's the start of a longer holiday trip for me. Driving up from Durban over two or three days.

Super excited.

Wow, just checked out the website! Super hyped!
For a normal attendee, it's R1500 including meals and accommodation. Is it for one night only, or all three nights included?

I would but... well, distance, cost, etc. Just not good for me.

It would be really cool to go, till when will registration be open? I'm in the process of un-reclusifying myself so meeting folks with similar interest would be well worth it.

End of May for payments, you can register on the site and you will see that we do allow for you to make smaller payments. If you need to make arrangements, just mail us from the website :3

I had planned to go but due to my work situation and lack of funds this will just not be a possibility.
If you've done nothing wrong you have nothing to fear,
if you've something to hide you shouldn't be here.

Unfortunately, I am still uncertain as to whether I will be attending or not - even though it is growing late. Though it does fall on the inter-semester holiday, I may be quite busy with holiday projects and vacation work. I'm keeping an eye on the calendar and last date for purchasing tickets, for now.

Pity to hear. I was looking forward to meeting you sometime.

So, rather than be like an annoying cat asking to go in and out of the door (is there a dinosaur version of that?), I thought I'd just give a final update on my attendance:

I'm afraid I won't be going. During that last weekend of the holidays, I must be away with my engineering Baja team to do some vehicle tests. Things are a bit too busy.
Still, I hope everyone has a fantastic time with it. :D
