we've given up on doing large events in the summertime.  Costs are typically double that of winter events.

We just can't compete with weddings. They (being the hotel) can charge $5000 a day for a wedding and we're there ~3 days.

Sorry, just a dose of reality. That's why we didn't have a summer event last year and instead moved it to February. We've already begun to make preparations for a Winter 2010 event, so look for more information about that this Fall.
Please just walk away. I don't want to have to stand here and say something so awesome that I'll have to remember it the rest of the day. Thank you!

Lame as it may be, we do this so we can save the attendees the huge fees involved with booking these venues during the peak of the wedding season.  Would you rather pay somewhere around $50 to attend or somewhere around $200?
That's Mr. Deception to you.

For a $200 entrance fee, we`ll allow unlimited port floating by the way..Otherwise its 10 cents a float and that can add up quickly.

The small ones are always fun. Since the last one where is was split into two different moves. And everyone moved out on accound of BrokenShadow's beast of a pc. We should do some room to room battles.
