BREAKFAST IS GO!

Tonkka

Just had to start a new thread for this...

I talked to "Roxy" at The Original Pancake house, and whe I said 20-30 people the morning (8 a.m.) of the 24th I think she almost had a heart attack.

At any rate, it's a go for a maximum of 30 (since I promised, I don't want to anger the bacom waffle gods), either PM me or reply here and I will try my best to keep the list updated. I'll start it off with myself and a friend of mine:

Tonkka +1
Staples +1
Werrick +2 (needs ride)
Recruit +2(4?)
TheMarshall
Jaiden +1
Mentok (needs ride)
BlackDragon (needs ride)
ProphetElijah +1
anable +3 (needs ride)
TimeCruiserMike +1
atray +3
TNTrooper +4
Astayonix
ElectricTurtle

Total thus far: 34 (36?)

Total Hitch-hikers: 9

staplersareshiny

I'm totally in.
Me + 1

Werrick

Werrick +2

Can the three of us get a ride from the Sheraton hotel? That's where we're staying. Are there travel arrangements made and so forth? What time are we meeting/gathering/arriving and stuff?

Officer

Me + 2 (Maybe +4, not sure on whether our other traveling companions will be down for some breakfast)

Also, I think Tonkka is keen.

The Deliverator

I am very much in on this. I Breakfast foods.

Jaiden

Tentative +1. I have no idea what plans are for Friday morning for me, but since we don't open until 2pm, I might be able to get me some breakfast in before we get started.

mentok1982

I am going! I am alone though.

I am the bacon waffle kingggg!

I need a ride as well. I can walk from the Executive (my hotel) to the Sheraton and meet up with the other folks that need a ride.
How does 7:45AM in front of the Sheraton sound for people that need a lift? That should be enough time for us to be at the Pancake House by 8AM.

BlackDragon480

I'm in, bring on the Cherry Crepes! Oh, and I'll need to score a ride as well.

Tonka. Can we get a "People who need a ride" count going? I have suggested that we free-loaders can meet in front of the Sheraton at 7:45AM.

I count 5 people that need a ride.

Done!

I might have to start a spreadsheet...

HAHAHAHA

Extra time... lololol thats funny :P

Anable +3-1x5/2+1

Moe Fwacky

You + 1 and a half?

Add, subtract, multiply, divide...

1+3-(1(5)/(2+1))

4-1(5/3)

3(5)/3

15/3

5?

Of course I had to translate a bit, and I'm not very good at math...

Moe Fwacky

Apparently, neither am I
(protip: I'm a journalism major)

Tonkka

Only anable can tell us for sure...

No one asked you, Colonel. That's why I said tentative.

Werrick

Being that I and my two are needing a ride, I'm sure we can be persuaded to contribute gas money/cab fare/whatever.

Ass, gas or grass, nobody rides for free.

Oh sure. How much does it cost to drive a car a total of 16 miles? Figure that out and get back to me.

Werrick

it's only polite to offer...

TheProphetElijah

TheProphetElijah + 1

Sorry. I was not joking. I was not using the sarcasm.

Moe Fwacky

Miles (16)/Car's MPG*Current cost of gas/number of people
(i use this formula ALL the time)

Miles(whatever)/Bicycle's MPG*Current cost of gas/Me=$0

I know I'm being snarky, but I can't resist that one...

I have refined the formula.

16/Car's MPG*3.00/number of hitchers

I forgot all about order of operations.

I'm not a math major either. Go figure. :P

Anable + (((3 - 1) x 5) /2) +1

4 total

Though I somehow failed to read the part that said this was 16 miles away. Apparently I'm not a reading major either. We're still all down if we can climb onto someone's roof where one guy holds the antenna and the rest of us bear hug him like monkeys in a barrel.

Wouldn't that math problem equal 7 people?

3-1 = 2

2x5 = 10

10/2 = 5

5+1 = 6

6 + Anable = 7

Mirite?

Okay, you're added to the total! And it's only 8 miles away, but 16 for the round trip.

anable

Wow, I feel an extreme need to load up Brain Age.

atray

me+3

TimeCruiserMike

me + 1

TNTrooper

me with up to 4 others depending on who in my group wants to go that far to get breakfast

Astayonix

ElectricTurtle and myself are going to need something to do in the morning. We have our own transport.

Tonkka

Okay, in all reality I have to cut this off for more participants before I can talk to someone there and to see if we can accomodate more people. as it is they kind of freaked out at the mention of 30 people...

Further updates as events warrant.

Waz

Maybe do it in waves like they're doing with dinner?

I'd come + 1 if there's room

HotSake

PEMDAS, people!

Anable +3-1x5/2+1

Anable + (3 - ((1 x 5) / 2)) + 1

Anable + (3 - (5 / 2)) + 1

Anable + 3 - 2.5 + 1

Anable + 1.5

I WAS RIGHT!!!!

TimeCruiserMike

Bus? Care to share this information? Where and when does this bus make land fall? Is it free? Does it require exact change?

TimeCruiserMike

well the buses are 1.50 a ride now(when i checked at few months ago they were free) during the day . . . exact change is likely . . . i would go here for route options

i am staying at the green tortoise inn, 3/5 of a mile from the convention center.

mentok1982

The closest time that bus arrives at the Original Pancake House is 7:32AM according to that site.
