Thanks! Smiley I just noticed a possible time conflict though. 4:15 to 5:15 PM is the "Rapid Fire Indies" talk and "Notch" (Minecraft) is going to be there. Shocked That is the last talk of Tuesday.

Whoah, did IGF closing time change since last year or does my memory just suck?

I didn't know the IGS ran until 5:15...  :\


Maybe there should be a second congregation time for the library trip, departing at 5:30.

EDIT: I put it into the plan-thing that a second group should form around then, consisting of anyone who sticks around that long.

Maybe it's special because it's part of the Indie Games Summit? SMB Question No idea....

There's also an Indie Mixer on Monday that's going on Monday from 5:30 to 7:30. (!)

Hey um...we're going to be in a big conference room, right? Is it safe to assume they're going to have a projector with VGA/audio (or even better, HDMI) input? I have a laptop that supports touch/pen input. (HP TouchSmart tm2) I think would be useful for brainstorming/prototyping game ideas. It would be fun to use it alongside a projector.

I think projector availability depends on which room(s) we're using.

The room's pretty bare-bones, honestly.  (I was originally hoping to book two.)  It does appear to have a television, but nothing more.  I expect we'll end up spreading out across most of the fourth floor, depending on how many folks show up.

Okay, I went down there today to register the room for everyone. Here's the deal:

- There is a cap on how many people can use the room. That number is: 15
Visual representation:  Smiley Smiley Smiley Wink Smiley Smiley Smiley Sad Smiley Smiley Smiley Cheesy Smiley Smiley Who, Me?

- I'm not sure what happens if we have more than 15; I guess people could wander around the library and/or grab a table outside of the room as long as it doesn't cause any trouble.

- There is a pull-down screen for a projector, but there is no projector. If you have one, please bring it.



- If you want to use the white board, you will need to bring your own dry erase markers.

- There are only eight [8] outlets in the room and they are no under the table that we'll all be sitting at, so it's highly recommended that someone brings at least one [1] power strip.

- No food or drinks in the room. Make sure to clean up and leave it the way you found it.

NO:



- The room we're in isn't soundproof, so we should conduct ourselves like gentlemen. Gentleman

- Though we're going to let the information desk know about our event, it is not the library's responsibility to know what events are taking place at all times. Evan (cellulose) or myself should be your main contact for this event. Make sure you have our number(s) if you plan on coming.



That is all. Let us enjoy our fun times together.

Nice writeup, Paul.

I will bring two power strips.  That should be enough for the folks in the room.  (I might also have dry erase markers.)  Like Paul said, we'll likely overflow into other parts of the library.  Either me or Paul will be rounding folks up at the first meeting time (see first post) and I think I'll come back to shepherd people who stick around for "rapid fire indies" at the IGS.


This is me:  (admittedly a silly picture)




One week!   Coffee

Would love to chill with you guys for a bit. But my plane arrives at 3:30PM, so I will see if I can make it down in time.  Smiley

Let's do a quick head-count:
Me + 2
Cellulose
r3d5
Auratus
grapefrukt
phubans
brog
John Sandoval
Yshaana + ?
lynx_
thedavidcarney
BubblePipeMedia
richtaur
wsworin
lyssakr

That comes to 17 + ?. The list above also counts people who may be in/want to go, so it sounds like we're going to be cutting it close/going over regardless.

Somehow I'm also expecting a lot of people who haven't spoken up yet.  Three or four of my friends, for starters.  Anyone I recruit at the hostel.

Basically, we're going to swarm the SFPL like locusts.

Was that an awesome typo for "at the hotel"?
