!bcbronies And I will also give my thanks for the fantastic day as well. I gave a couple notes on etiquette issues I'd like to address at http://mlpf.im/BcFinale as well as details on the meetup for anyone goin' to Fan Expo tomorrow as well. For the most part, everyone and everything was completely fine, but I hope everyone reads it just to make sure we're on the same page. @thepuzzldpirate I was gonna ask about the extra funds. Children's Hospital, eh? That's FANTASTIC. Also, I've sent an email to EqD regarding posting people's footage. A reminder, please refrain from submitting your footage, the staff didn't all get the go-ahead to actually attend this and I'd like to avoid any issues that could theoretically come of this.

@thepuzzldpirate !vancouverbronies I have HDMI cables in my camera bag, in case it is needed
-
@thepuzzldpirate Can you email me your phone number at bronymike@derpymail.com? We should keep in touch during the con.
-
!bcbronies Holy hell, this is gonna be the best finale screening/meetup ever. More special guests could be on board, and Shiropoint (that guy what makes all them thar fancy-papayas amazing vids) is showing interest. @thepuzzldpirate, if somehow we're turning people down like crazy and this winds up being freakishly super-popular, I'm thinkin' it might be wise to do three screenings instead. 4, 5, and 6. Just a thought. Also, does anyone think they could make some signs or something, to help people know where this stuff's taking place?
-
@thepuzzldpirate !vancouverbronies Good, tagging along at the expo kind of guarantees you are with the organizer of the screening. I guess that cements me going to Fan Expo.
-
@thepuzzldpirate Wait, food court? I thought we were meeting at some parkade. Where is the entrance to the conference room? People are going to all be showing up at different times, and I want them to be as not-lost as possible. A street name or at least some sort of directions (other than "at the library") is gonna be needed, or people WILL get lost. The library takes up a whole block.
-
!bcbronies Alright, I've got a damn busy few days up ahead and will have minimal time for planning. Does ANYONE live or work near the convention centre who could stop by and check out a good meeting spot for the morning of Fan Expo Saturday? Unless anyone objects, I still say meeting in a specific spot at anywhere from like 9:15-10:00 would be the best way to all get together and figure out the day's schedule. @thepuzzldpirate The library's freakin' huge, is there a specific street this parkade's on that you could give to help direct people?
-
!vancouverbronies @bronymike @thepuzzldpirate I can count like nobody's business.
-
!bcbronies @thepuzzldpirate One tricky bit with me manning the doors, however, is that I'll be running the computer, so I'm gonna need to make sure that's all working. Maybe @tequilasunrise can use his attendance-counting skills to help us out on this front.
-
@thepuzzldpirate !bcbronies I'm sure you'd rather do some stuff at the end of the con on Saturday, but do you think we could hold a second screening for the people who couldn't get into the first? Like, a rotation around 5:00?
-
@fang8989 !bcbronies If you're talking about the finale, it's first-come-first-serve, there are no tickets. And we won't favor anyone over anyone else in letting them in, with the exceptions of the people who are bringing devices necessary for the screening (mainly myself and @tesla500), @thepuzzldpirate, and anyone on the show's staff.

@thepuzzldpirate Could you add me on Skype? robotronn
-
@thepuzzldpirate !bcbronies And I'm not sure if I got an answer, how do we plug into the room's sound system? Is there a standard 3.5mm mp3-style jack long enough to reach my laptop?
-
@thepuzzldpirate !bcbronies Thanks, by the way, for working so hard on all this planning. I'm currently in the process of modifying the http://mlpf.im/BcFinale document to reflect the changes. Everyone let me know if there's anything I neglected to mention or anything that should be edited. @seanprice Sorry. We're busy planning the finale meetup. You can roll with my crew at Fan Expo, I'll figure out a meeting place for when they open the gates. Swag. @thunderdash We don't know the current number, though people were only supposed to sign up on the poll if they were absolutely coming. I know that's a load of crap and idiots are going to sign up on it either way, but we'll probably get some tag-alongs from the Expo so it balances out. DO NOT invite more people. I am very sorry about this. The document was just to get a gauge for how many people are coming and signing up on there DOES NOT GUARANTEE ANYONE A SPOT.
-
@thepuzzldpirate !bcbronies So wait, are we already at 60, or just very close? If the latter, how many people are actually intending to go?
-
!bcbronies @thepuzzldpirate dole. So is the other room booked, or will they just not change the contract?
-
!bcbronies Alright, we just got a few more people added to the list, and I'm becoming concerned for the capacity. There are some other people who work on the show who got wind of the meetup and are hoping to attend. @thepuzzldpirate Would you be able to expand? I'm sorry for not doing this before Saturday, and if you can think of a way for me to get you the extra money needed to rent the other room, I'll gladly pay the difference. I figure when we're taking the $5 at the door, we'll make sure you get paid off first, and then I'll bear the risk of not earning back my part. Got any ideas?
-
!bcbronies @thepuzzldpirate Added to the http://mlpf.im/BcFinale doc.
-
@thepuzzldpirate !bcbronies He still hasn't confirmed. He certainly didn't say no, though, and if it was a scheduling problem I imagine he would, so that's good.
-
@thepuzzldpirate !bcbronies Ah, got it. And we're locked into our time right now under the same penalty, right? I just got a more reliable contact connection with the potential special guest.
-
!bcbronies Just a reminder to everyone, I believe that since this is less than a week away, we are now locked into our 60-person-capacity room with the finale meetup plan outlined at http://mlpf.im/BcFinale. Now we've just got during-the-con meetups to plan, as well as snacks and the like. @thepuzzldpirate, what's the protocol in case we suddenly get like 120 people with us the day-of and they're all paying? Is there still any possibility of short-notice expansion?
-
@thepuzzldpirate !bcbronies Weeeeierd. Hopefully it'll work now.
-
@tjdetweiler !bcbronies Sure I'll join as Admin if you want. I don't really use FB for much though, so I'll probably not be very active and will turn notifications off, to be honest. Your choice. @armadillo Not sure. Have you asked their group? They'd probably have a better idea what subgroups might exist. @thepuzzldpirate Indeed. The meetup's all ages, so make sure any refreshments are too. For our drinkers, I think someone's planning a drinking game meetup after the con's done for the day. So, this is somewhere at the big coliseum library, right? And you know exactly where the room is? Also, finally, I'm making a simple-to-link GDoc where we'll put the meetup details. http://mlpf.im/BcFinale If anyone here's doing any planning regarding meetups that weekend, lemme know your email address and I can add you. I've got school projects still and won't be able to work on it much.

@thepuzzldpirate Thanks for setting this all up!
-

@mcbrony You can give money to @thepuzzldpirate at the viewing. As for meeting, I think you can just go straight to the Alma Vandusen room at VPL at 3 PM.
-
@echron1000 !bcbronies That would be cool. Refreshments would be handy to have. @thepuzzldpirate Should we ask around and see if some attendees would be willing to bring snacks?
-
@thepuzzldpirate I could scrounge up some ice for the bowls and some coolers
-
@thepuzzldpirate Or wait, are you smuggling them illegally across national lines?
-
@thepuzzldpirate I don't think anyone will eat them if they're put in "bowels". XD
