mr_intv Posted February 20, 2016 Share Posted February 20, 2016 If the Canadian dollar and the price of Oil increases, so do my chances of going. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Screw it, I've started saving already, exchange rate be damned. Going to have to find a cheaper hotel though...the Courtyard was nice but I'll probably be driving down with my friends so we can be further away without a problem.

I'm just gonna come down a couple days early and pimp Rev in some back alleys. My cut will take care of the exchange. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+intellivotion Posted February 20, 2016 Share Posted February 20, 2016 Do you think it's necessary to book the hotel so early? I would really like to attend, but I will not know if I can until about one month before the event... Any suggestion will be really appreciated by this poor alien, even about the accommodation 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+DZ-Jay Posted February 20, 2016 Share Posted February 20, 2016 I may be able to go... I have a work conference in Portland from the 17th to the 19th, and I could just stay an extra week. Too early yet to tell, but I'm excited. -dZ. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Rick Reynolds Posted February 20, 2016 Share Posted February 20, 2016 I definitely am making plans to go to this one. Paul, Will, and I haven't discussed a booth yet, but there are definite possibilities for an Intellivisionaries booth at PRGE 2016. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrekMD Posted February 20, 2016 Share Posted February 20, 2016 I'm going to try going. I need to make some schedule changes in my office to be able to go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any suggestion will be really appreciated by this poor alien, even about the accommodation I think I booked my hotel maybe a week before the show last year. I wouldn't recommend booking that late but I wouldn't say you have to book it for a while. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clearly you guys have to go, I mean who else can I invite back to my room? You guys need to be there to record the Intellivision event for posterity.

Seems like maybe you should consider shutting down for a few well deserved days of fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wolfy62 Posted February 20, 2016 Share Posted February 20, 2016 I think I gotta make it to meet the President of Intellivisionland! I already met the Vice President, he is a cool person! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+BBWW Posted February 20, 2016 Share Posted February 20, 2016 I'm going to have a booth somewhere. I'm open to sharing a space as well. I won't have a lot to sell...but I think I have Groovy Bee almost convinced to show up. I'll need to do another PRGE release and have a few other items for sale. Any Programmers that can't be there but want to sell something shoot me a PM. So I'll have a little ten foot space somewhere. Time to find a few cheap, small LCD TV's.

freewheel Posted February 20, 2016 Share Posted February 20, 2016 Going for sure. Unless I get cancer or lose my job or something equally horrific. Probably gonna stay at the Eastlund again - it was a bit pricey (around $200 USD a night before tax) but it's literally across the street, and a pretty swank place on the inside. Super handy if you buy anything large and cumbersome. As far as folks worrying about booking hotels - the area gets booked up early, IF there's other stuff going on at the convention center. Which there was, last year. So all the cheap/close hotels get snapped up months in advance. But never fear - Portland's LRT runs right next to the place. Plus there's always the option to just drive. So you can stay anywhere in the city. The only reason some of us book early is to be within walking distance. Portland isn't that busy in October otherwise. Can't decide how many extra days to stay this time. Might be fun to do a beach day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought you already had your booth booked for the underground parkade? That would be awesome if Mark could come too. This will be a lot of fun this year, even bigger than the CGE Inty contingent.

I figure if Rev can go despite anal leakage then I'd damn well better make an effort to get there myself. I don't think I looked at the Eastlund...hmmmm. I should probably put more effort into it this time. I think we need to make sure we all have more time to ride the elephant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
