I hate WordPress. Marking old information in the site as complete from last year, and just cleaning up some behind the scenes tasks, it looks like it may have e-mailed out to people.

Please ignore those old e-mails. WordPress is so dumb sometimes.

Any hotel deals? Yet this year? Or B&Bs in the area?

I'll be there. Just working on details to bring a friend along. He wants time away from the kids. I told him to bring them, to which he replied hell no.

I'll be signed up as soon as those details are worked out. Whether I drive or fly depends on if he is going or not and the dates. I plan for the usual 5 day+, but will see.

Edit: Futiles, while you are checking, try Candlewood Suites. I stayed there last year for the same price as the quality inn people. It's a bit further away in the downtown area, but was a 3* instead of 2 or 2.5 that Quality Inn was. May not be as lucky to get it this year as it was just a random "Name Your Price" shot at Priceline that I got it for that price.

I will call Candlewood Suites, too.
I'll be arriving in Indy 10:45am Thursday, have to be back at the airport Monday by 10am. If you need a ride and you are close to these times either way, let me know.

Been watching prices for awhile, and booked last year's flights about 2 weeks ago. Almost double this year what I paid last year for the same flights. My times don't really sync up well with Fsh's, but they're the same flights I've taken the last few years.

Arrive Thurs - 2:07
Depart Mon - 2:40 (need to be there by 12:40ish)
Just booked/paid for my 5 day pass as well. Just hotel left to take care of now.
I saw this post and got super excited!!!...Then I google mapped it lol. It would be a 16 hour drive from me. I can't swing it this year but hopefully if you guys do one next year I will be in a much better position. I have gone to several Lan events and competitions in my Counter-Strike days. I miss them a lot, maybe I can get something going here in Texas and get all you guys out this way so we can have 2 events a year. If you guys make a Xbox party online and have some open spots count me in!!.

I have a I.T shop here so I could possibly get a Fri-Sun event going sometime. I will definitely go to PAX next time its in town, Thanks for shedding light on that.
