Sorry, I haven't been responding well to PMs. I have your friend on the waitlist but there have been people in front of her that got the spots that opened up. I *will* let you know if space opens up, sorry I just didn't respond earlier.

I won't be making it unfortunately. If you can remove me from the list and add someone from the waiting list. I hate having to prioritize everything that overlaps. -_-
I'm staying at the Grand Hyatt. Anyone want to walk with me from there? I know there was talk of a group walking form the Sheraton, so if all else fails, I'll just try to run into that group.
This doesn't help at all in regards to the post above this, but if anyone is staying at the Hilton and wants to have people to walk with, they can walk with my friends and I.
Or you could just tweet them and let them know. Eep - will you need help with checking people in day of?

Crud, I hadn't seen that. Thanks for pointing it out and having them remove it from the lineup. Grrrr, talk to event organizers before posting things people.
Also,
******MAJOR ANNOUNCEMENT******
Fonte has crapped out on us at the last moment (and I am BEYOND pissed off). I received an email from the manager today that they would not be hosting us and we should find somewhere else. However, I called the cheesecake factory and they will be able to take care of us (MY HEROES). I know it's not ideal, I wanted some place really nice for this event, but it was the best I could do on such short notice. There will most likely be gratuity added for such a large group. I will be talking with the manager tomorrow and will make sure to find out how much that will be.
I will be sending out PMs to everyone and will update the facebook page. Again guys, I'm sorry for the last minute change. Fonte has acted in a VERY unprofessional and rude manner toward this group and I am sorry for it (you can see my yelp review for more). Thank you guys for your patience with this and I look forward to seeing everyone on Sunday, 10am at The Cheesecake factory.

I'm still in...stinks about them backing out but at least we are still able to have the meet up.....don't let this spoil our PAX experience ladies....can't wait to see you all and hope to meet some of you before Sunday. If anyone is staying at the baroness hotel or the inn at Virginia mason come track me down...time is almost among us...
I hope you guys end up with a chair open. Would like to come talk GeekGirlCon with some fellow GeekGals! If anyone loses their +1 lemme know! LURV LURV LURV!
Okay, I talked with the manager at the Cheesecake factory this morning they will be able to have us there. However there are two things that need to be noted. 1) We will not have a special room and they WILL NOT hold tables in our area if there are no more seats in the restaurant and people are waiting. That means we need to be there AT 10am when the doors open. If you are late you run the risk of either not being seated in our section or not being seated at all. 2) There will be an 18% gratuity added to your bill. Please take this into consideration when budgeting for the event.
So to reiterate
1. SHOW UP ON TIME OR YOU MIGHT NOT GET A SEAT
2. Be prepared to add 28% to your bill (18% gratuity + 10% tax)

They're so generous; they've committed to not turning you away at the door if you deign to eat their food! :P~ (Yes, I know it's last minute, I was just amused by their "graciousness". )
Looking forward to brunch - and hey, being at the Cheesecake Factory means I don't have to leave as early to make the Bill Amend panel at noon.
My thoughts exactly! I was worried because I know this will be a lot of fun, and I didn't want to duck out early to get to that panel, but now that we're across the street, I think I can do it!

Yay, we should go to the panel together. My spouse is an Enforcer so I won't see him all weekend anyway...

EA, I'm sure you could let them know that RSVP is closed? It would be a shame for people to show up only to be turned away.

Good news they amended the article by striking the event and put in the following. "– Full up with a lengthy waiting list.

We need a Vegas style hotel where they pump oxygen into our room so we only need like, 2 hours of sleep each day.
Yay, we should go to the panel together.
