hey boys and girls! I know that we kind of let the thread from last year carry over into this year, but i think it would be kind of nice to have a new one so that we can keep track, so if you posted that your going on the other one, please kindly re-post in this one!

And from the other thread, Red Dawn and Grumbold Ironbrow ;) have kindly offered to have a barbecue at their abode after the affair, so If your interested please let her know so she can get all the ribs/ect she needs.

I know that my family are almost positive that we are attending. And I\'ll keep an active list going so that we can keep tally. I have no idea about Atlanta so if someone *cough* Scott *cough* knows what the convention area and ect is like *cough* Dawn*cough* and knows where we can all congregate. that\'d proally be good too

dawn got me all paranoid today with the 47 days till the GD, so i just want to make sure no one gets left behind.


THE LIST!
1) Becca (ipaintminis)
2) Tracy (TAB Studio)
3) Khavor
4) Stefen (halfamanhalfamazing)
5) Hiliter
6) syndjinn
7) Red Dawn
8) Grumb
9) darthfoley
10) THuff
11) Schooldog
12) Dragon Forge Design (and friend)
13) Rodnik (with wife)
14) Whizard (with girlfriend and her sister)
15) gt4948c
16) James9487
17) MathewBaich
18) ardyer
19) Dark Zealot Studios
20) Vitis


the list will be updated as more people jump on the GD bandwagon ;) :flip:

We\'ll be there

Thanks for starting this thread Becca!

The convention center will be one BIG room so it shouldn\'t be hard to find each other (i.e. look for the people with their noses squashed against the glass cases! lol )

I\'m pretty sure Scott/Grumb will probably wear his HerseyCon/CMON t-shirt. If people like I\'d be happy to try and make buttons with the CMON logo (if it\'s ok with borg and C.A.) with people\'s handles on them. I\'ll do them and I could leave them with the GD register people to put with your GD badge OR if people aren\'t worried about forgetting them I could just mail them to you.

Anyway, give it some thought people and let me know what you think.

See you soon!

P.S. No entries for us :(

Why? You have 43(+/-) days to get something done. Go to it.

Wish Fran & I could be there :(

I\'m not good enough and Grumb\'s travelling so much he just doesn\'t have the time.

Wish Fran & I could be there :(

HUH??? I knew Fran wasn\'t going to be here, but I thought you were coming into town and staying with darthfoley.

Or did I just imagine that information? :D

I\'ll be there. Probably only one entry unless I really get a chance to work on another.

And DR and Fran - if you can make it, I still have room for ya here at the house. If not, hope you can make it over sometime soon. :)

Well, I\'ll be there. Aiming for five entries...probably have three for sure. If my eyes hold out. The current fig has too much small detail.

And Schooldog (one of our consistent lurkers) will be there also.


P.S. Red, I sent you and Grumb an email.

Ill be their.. probably with a buddy.. but the idea of a BBQ sounds great... when sat night after the event?

Anyone have a good suggestion where to stay around the event thats close by.. save me a car rental if we fly in.. though well probably drive Atlanta isnt that far from Cincinnati.

DFD-

Hate to break the bad news to you, but there aren\'t really any hotels \"walking distance\" to the center. If you fly in you\'re going to have to rent a car anyway...Atlanta is BIG and Spread out!

The BBQ will probably start around 7:00PM. They usually wrap up at GD by about 5:30 PM.

Cheers,
Grumb

P.S. - thanks for starting this thread Becca...you scallywag...

To Red Dawn & Darthfoley:

Sorry to disappoint you both but the plans that Fran & I had started to make got put into limbo when my mothers health started to decline.
Much as we would like to get over there this year there are a few things which we\'ve got to sort out, and keep an eye on my dad for a while.

I still haven\'t ruled out a visit to Atlanta, just to scare you folks :D
I did remember talk of Dawn & Grumb visiting this rainy old Isle for Gamesday UK.

Mike, I am saddened again by the impact of your loss. I understand that family comes first. You will be missed.

The entire DarkVine crew will be there (all two of us---me and Whizard/Darin).
This will be our first Demon competion---and it looks like we\'ll have two/maybe three entries each.

As far as finding each other----I know Darth,Grumb, and RedDawn well enough to spot \'em. I\'ve met Terry once, but it\'s been a couple of years---so, I don\'t know if I\'ll spot him or not. I\'ve had dinner with Nathan once, but I\'ve slept since then (I think I\'ll probably remember when I see him...:D

As far as spotting me---I\'ll be the butt-ugly guy with the cute blonde


Kevin.

Very understandable, given the circumstances. Would just be nice, after all this time, to shake your hand and buy a round at whatever lunch establishment we wander into. :)

They\'ve got whale sharks, but no Great Whites that I\'m aware of...but you can always check the web site to be sure:

@Dragonsreach - Mike we certainly understand and Dawn and I both are so very sorry for your loss. We\'ll make it another time sir...hopefully we\'ll get over for GD UK...but it probably won\'t be this year...:(

@Rodnik - we\'ll see you and the lovely missus there Kevin!

@ipaintminis - Becca, whoa there young lady...calm down...calm down....

Cheers,
Grumb
