<-- needs place to crash, or isnt going

Besides, if we did change to sydney, i may have some semblance of a chance of getting a bridge climb booked ;)

How many people live around Sydney who would be willing to supply a place for us outsiders to stay?

I've already booked tickets back from MElbourn to New Zealand, but I think they can be changed with just a small extra charge. Cheaper than staying at a motel atleast :)

Last ALFACon we had about 6 or 7 from sydney, though the only people that needed a place to crash that time was myself, Zekal and Strakkor, and Bool was nice enough to let us crash in his loungeroom :D

Maybe at the time of last ALFACon we had more melbourne based people, but if the majority are still from sydney, i reckon it prolly best to change.

Fine with me.

Just purchased $500 aussie dollars today for the trip, and the exchange rate couldn't have been better! It's the highest it's been since 1994! But now knowing my luck it's going to shoot even higher....

Think it best to guage all the other aussies that will be attending (it doesnt matter much to lou and AC yet, since they arent booked ;))

Id certainly like to get my tickets booked asap. Does anyone have a problem with it being in sydney again?

Could you find out ASAP Zekal? I just checked the qantas website, and half the flights to sydney on friday the 27th are already sold out, and i dont wanna leave it much longer if we do end up going to sydney :D

Edit: That and we need to lay the location down ASAP since Rotku might need to change some flights and now that Lou and AC are capable of leaving the US, they will be looking for flights too.

All who can go to sydney on the 28th-29th.. post here to indicate you are coming.. lets get this show on the road

I'll be booking my flights in exactly 3 days since thats what it took to get the venue decided last time.. first person booking their flight.

That'll be a busy weekend in sydney.. dont leave it too late

I've already booked mine to Melbourn about 15 days ago :P But can easily change them to Sydney if needs be. $30 isn't going to break the bank.

If its in Syd i might make an appearance, if the obscuring mist permits.

I dun know if Shininghand is still in if its in Melb, last i heard he said he wouldn't if its down there. Though he may be trying to hide his dedication of course.

Well, Thangs said he was going to work it like last time, first person to book tickets decided it, and he gave it 3 days which are almost up.

Ok, awesome, the rubber stamp from the guys whose apartment we will again be invading =D

Now i can look at flights =D
