I'll be there. Already scheduled the day off of work on Friday, and my teammates know that short of our entire codebase being lost and needing to be coded up from scratch I will be unreachable the whole weekend.

You know, it just occured to me that I've planned out my days, but I'm pretty sure at least one of them doesn't leave room for food for a very long stretch. I'll have to hit up the store and get some Capri Sun and granola bars.

Also, what portables are you guys bringing? I'll be rocking out with the Nomad and the FC Mobile II. I'm leaving the DS's and PSP's for the wannabees.

I will be hating all of you from Friday until Monday, after my first con at Animazement I don't know why I hadn't gone all out to try going to one before.

You would think so, given that I live in Seattle, but I have no plans to go.

Doesn't sound like a bad idea. Look over the schedule and see what panels/events you want to do and figure out when you have holes in the schedule.

I'm really looking forward to two of the Magic events. The prizes for them are uncut sheets of Magic cards, which would be awesome to frame and mount on the wall. One is "standard" sealed (one booster of every set in standard) and the other is Urza block sealed.

No time set aside for the Metroid Metal concert? Fail.
