I will occasionally cull posts from the thread that have been struck out or marked as no longer valid. I will try to do this as necessary, but there will not be a hard schedule for this purpose. This will mean that there should not be a wall of inactive posts to sift through in order to find active ones. Also it means that if someone had a post that was culled from early on, they can freely re-post it later if things went south. If you abuse this, your ability to post in this thread will be revoked entirely.

The friday is tentative. If i dont end up getting a Friday Badge ill prob still end up arriving but not till later that night. That's my current plan as of now it might change when closer. Would like to find people that dont smoke,etc that kind of stuff. Cant stand the smell of it. I dont mind sharing a room with a drinker as long as you know your limits. After a long con day I am cool with having some drinks myself to wind down the night but dont wanna be hearing people puking in the middle of the night cause I get woken up easily sometimes. I have a back problem so would prefer bed if possible.
