$500 to anywhere would be cheap for me.

I may be willing to help out on table sitting...provided you let me promote my own stuff.

Of course, I've got to get there first, so don't pencil me in just yet.

That's what random lackeys are for too. I may end up having a few of those. :D

And don't worry, I've done this con before. If we get bored and want to all wander around, we can just pack stuff up early and wander around, or leave lackeys in charge.

Hell, the VGCats guys last year were only there for a few hours on each day. But those bastards sold everything in those few hours.

I'm seeing what's up with Scotty boy. He and Mr. Buckley are supposed to have a table but allegedly there are some problems...

Also props on the doodle.

Updates!
For every two people I'm adding a new table. We can probably squish three people behind a table (I did it one day, it felt crowded but it CAN BE DONE), but keep in mind there will be a lot of us there and lackeys will be hopping behind the tables and what have you.
In a couple weeks I'll look at the list and if there are lots of tables then we could probably get away with taking one off, since two tables could probably comfortably seat five people.

...okay, I'm rambling now, I'll stop. Just thinking out loud.
So here is...

====== THE LIST! ======

Table People:
Pimpette
K-Dawg
CJ
Legostar
Tynan
Spunkyneko

-- Possible Cost --
Tables Req'd:
3
Total so far: $420
Per Person: $70 CAN
===================

The best part of the exhibitor pass is grinning at all the people in line as you waltz past them and get admitted up the stairs ahead of everyone.

The table comes with two of those. I think you can ask them if you can have three... but I'm not sure. I'll call them in a couple days and ask.

Sooooo, I do not have to buy an anime pass for the artists alley and just have to pick up an exhibitors badge O-o?

Oh, also, does anyone wanna share a room at the InterContinental with me? I want to know because they have a double room ($179 CAN) for the same prices as the single so I thought I would inquire. I am reserving it tonight as well so if anyone does just ask.

When you buy a table, you're buying admission for the entire weekend. No registration really required aside from me filling out the form. All you guys have to worry about is getting the money to me (I'll set up a PayPal account or something, cause I totally don't have a few hundred bucks to spare atm).

I'll see if I can get the whole thing put as "ComicGenners" or something (for on the passes). Again, I'll ask when I call the people in the next day or so.

With the pass I'm pretty sure you can get anywhere.
Check the site though, I might be wrong. I do know that last year I could just walk past lines and go up the stairs without paying or worrying about anything.

You have to mail them a form, which can be found here.

But don't worry too much on it. If you want to be part of the group we've got going here, just make sure you're on my list and in a couple weeks I'll send Hobbystar the form for however many tables we want.
