    OK

    Last time I planned on making an event similiatr to this, I ended up with Spine Surgery and three wrist surgeries from a car wreck.

    Now, one more time, I am looking at this hard, can someone please clue me in on what it will cost (outside hotel room and food)?

    Thanks

      A five hour ride for me (I'd come in on the motorcycle). Could be fun.
      I've been on these boards for a long time and I still don't know what to think when it comes to you -- FrantzX, December 21, 2001

        Unfortunately we cannot at this time as the event's timetable, options and possible sponsorships are still in flux. We are, of course, working to keep it to a minimum.

              I'm hopeful a member of the Committee will be able to make an announcement in the coming weeks about registration pricing for this event.

                this is a real bummer ... Qantas is offering stupid flights to Oz for $650 and I just have to grab one while the grabbing is good. Unfortunately, my flight home timing sucks the big one and I will not be able to make it to CivCon

                woo hoo! My wife publishes her first book. Buy it now in paperback format at lulu and help me retire so I can write more BUG mod code.

                  Aw crud.

                  We hope to have this event well documented in text, audio and video so you won't miss out completely, as with the vast majority of the community who will also be absent.

                    Yes - but meeting various Civ4 people in person cannot be replaced by text / audio and vid.

                          I should be able to go, would like to see if the costs were finalized (even a general number like $1-$4)

                          Oh and I'll be driving from WI again if someone wants to roll with me!

                          Although I haven't heard from Donegeal in a while, that sure was a fun 2 minute discussion on how we pronounce our forum handles

                              Not at the moment but, on behalf of the Committee, we hope to have one (or more!) in the near future.

                              I'm sure they will.

                                So is there a set cost for this? I need to know to budget for my trip.
