    So it looks like DHL and Canadian Customs have failed me. My Ravenclaw tie and scarf have been stuck in customs purgatory for over a week now with little chance of being released and in my hands today.
    So instead I'll probably go the more slutty-goth route with a tiny skirt and corset. I do at least have a wand. I hope my attire will be acceptable to my house and all participants of the tri-wizard tournament.
    If you want to borrow my Ravenclaw badge/patch I'll bring it along with me to the crawl. =) I found out out of all the random crap I have in my house I do not have a safety pin (I still have the tie, it's enough) so you're welcome to it.

    That would be aweseome and I'd be eternally grateful, although the Dark Mark that was mentioned will work as well.

    Do it! The more the merrier, I think you'd have to already be dead not to have a good time at this. Hell, I think a corpse could/would have a great night.

    No.

    The OP clearly says to pick a house. So. Do that.
    Use the schedule to figure out where they're meeting. Go there.
    Identify your Head of House, Head Boy, or Head Girl.
    Say hi.
    Bring cash.:P

    What happens to those unhappy people who are late to the party (damn you, Starlight Express!) ?

    Do we just head to the bar at the appropriate time and join up with folk there?

    Also, if there's space (though I realize there are no buttons or anything left), !Hufflepuff

    It is not too late to join the Hogwart's Express

    Just choose a house, check out their schedule, and read the OP. It will tell you precisely where to go and when as well as anything else you need to know. Bear in mind if you are not on a roster, you should print out and bring your own scorecard so you can play along.

    So now that its day of, where are people planning on parking/how are people getting to and from this event? I have a parking spot down by the cruise terminal that would be free but thats a 2+mile walk to the first bar. all this while dressed a bit wizard-y. Anyone got a plan they want to share (or just a good place to park the car?)

    I was thinking the bus would be the best option to get there, but I'm not sure how to get back--being in a state of intoxication and the buses stop running shortly after 1 AM.

    Not participating, but thought I could be of some use. Not all the buses stop at 1am. They generally have a trip or two after that for people leaving the bars at closing time (2am). Looks like everything is within 2 miles of the con center. If that Google list is in order, you should be able to catch a 10, 11, 14, 49 or 43 back downtown from Pine and Bellevue. That late, I think only the 49 and 43 run, though.

    We're starting at the pre-pax dinner and figuring it out from there.

    Is anyone planning on taking public transit home to somewhere in the Lynnwood/Edmonds/Ash Way P&R area? I'm still on the fence about this due to worries about getting back, but knowing that someone else would be in the same boat would help a lot.

    edit: fuck it we'll do it live. I've got a DD.

    4 hours until I see you all although I'm sure I'll see a good chunk of you at the dinner.

    Just an FYI I did not pack my tie. Instead I ran all over Seattle and bought a new one. If the headmaster doesn't dress the part, who will?
