Okay so I'm trying to figure out who is staying who, but I'm a bit confused about whether it's 2 hotels or 3, and which Holiday Inn we're talking? (King's Cross? Regent Park? etc)
The event hotel is nicely located save for being a bit far away from a subway station
Edit: Nevermind, I completely overlooked Russel Square

In the space of an hour or so, Fangu's persuaded me to go.
So basically, I just need to book a Cactaur ticket, train tickets and a hotel, yes?

Yes
Also, of course, Bloomsbury Holiday Inn *headdesk*
Anyway I'm not too worried about booking a hotel, plane tickets come first, event tickets second. If I have those two down, I'm coming
Edit: Also my passport expires in May holy fuck should probably get a new one before then

@Ami, yes, I am and I think quite a few others are as well. We've gotta go annoy keep Red company.
I've set up a folder for the event on Google Drive. We can use it to upload photos and videos during/after the event, but for now, it just has a spreadsheet to collect everyone's contact details, find out when they're arriving and leaving, where they're staying, who they're sharing with and what tickets they have (if any). I was thinking about setting up a Whatsapp group once we have phone numbers but we can just use Discord instead, since Joe already made a channel for us. The phone numbers are more of an emergency measure or in case someone can't get online.
Since we don't want to be giving out our phone numbers to the entire internet, PM me your email address and I'll give you access to the folder. Then you'll be able to add your details and upload stuff later if you want to.

I can't remember the exact number who registered that day. I know the total capacity at one point was about 700, incl. performers/vendors etc., so from what I had gathered it was just over 600 attendees.
like ultros burlesque shows
You of all people would have enjoyed it most, surely?
Tastefully done, I might add
While it was mentioned there'd be a burlesque, it was made sure to be held back (no, I will not give into the pun of saying "stripped back"), but I don't think we were expecting the Ultros part.
@Ami, yes, I am and I think quite a few others are as well. We've gotta goannoykeep Red company.
On the chance I won't get to talk to people much across both parts of the day, everyone is invited back to my room. I rented a double for a reason
This event just gets better by the day.
How many TLS people went to the Big Pom? I'm wondering if we're going to have them beat. Not in a serious competitive way, just a friendly one.
By now, yes, there are more going to MTP.
Off the top of my head:
TBP = 8 (Force, Avec, lith, JT, Tenny, Ite, Carlie & me)
MTP = 12 (Lex, Flint, Octo, Joe, Yop, Fangu, Mage, Ami, Keveh S&G, CrashOuch & me)

Well there's your inspiration - don't be bad
It's probably a good indicator of the poor health or fitness of a lot of gaming fans though. I mean see also the kupocon pictures, I wasn't impressed by a lot of people there. The TLS representatives were in oddly good shape though, relatively

No way am I cosplaying. Aside from not even knowing who to do. I feel uncomfortable enough in my own skin as it is
Gettin excited. I bought myself a travel toothbrush, and some other small bottles of shampoo and shower gel and shit (yeah I know it's only 2 nights but I'm a dirty bitch) I was pissed off though because I couldn't find a decent sized weekend bag that wasn't stupidly expensive. Primark used to do them but I looked and everything was shit.
I suppose I have a while but I like to prepare goddamnit!

I'll more than likely pack that stuff at the last second... like the night before.
I'm going to hold off from booking a room at the least for now, going to see how the prices go during the week first. Getting a double room to myself because I've been told I talk to myself in my sleep and wouldn't want to irritate anyone xD

I feel like there are more active Yurpeens than Muricans (and canadalandians) here in general.

Canadalandians, this is great, I shall call them this from now on
<3 I feel the same too, about amount of active members, but maybe it just seems that way, I've never counted.
Also all you mofos should totally cosplay

Well, seeing as these featured in TBP I'll post them here, too. Got them custom-made myself for a particular activity.
Jon Campling, motion actor of King Regis will be joining us on the day
You might also recognise him from Harry Potter
EDIT: This tweet is brilliant!
