    I hope they don't do any more date changes. I need to lock in plans in advance!

    That's a good point, Shaz. That will be A LOT of tables for all of those battles happening simulataneously. I'm sure they've thought of that, though...

    Spore will be held in a community center hall, so there will lots of space ... it's pretty cool

    The best is to do an all-nighter drive and arrive there just in time to play like zombies :D

    Noooo thanks. I'd like a reasonable drive/flight on Friday, a nice meal, and a good night's sleep before the weekend of bedlam!

    Yes, that's what we did last year. Convoyed down the highway. Arrived JB after lunch. Checked in. Ate. Drank. Painted. Slept. Woke up real early and drove across for breakfast.

    Just need to take the Friday off.
