We will have the room at the booth same as last year's. So yes

Perfect so I can just bring my suit to room and change there

I know we have the excel spreadsheet for hotel rooms, but I'd like to put out there that I have an extra room available if someone wants to take it over, and there is an extra bed in the room my husband and I will be in if there's another couple or someone comfortable with mixed gendered rooms.

So I'm tracking. Who is the main point of contact/running this? Is there a booth watch bill?

AugmentedHuman013 has been our contact with the show runners of the event, but all of the Southern staff is involved and happy to answer any questions you may have. As far as booth watch, there is a tab on the spreadsheet for the event for booth watch cycles, but I don't believe we have started to flesh that out quite yet. We will most likely start that process in the next couple of weeks.

Update, I went ahead and snagged 3 seperate rooms. One at the Hilton, one at the Rosen Center, and one at the Rosen plaza.

Spots in these rooms will be up for grabs if necessary and cost can be split. If spots aren't taken I will simply cancel the reservations that are not needed.

Hey Drim, I’m trying to see if I can fit it in this year I would totally be interested in splitting a hotel room if there’s still spots?

There are definitely spots in 2 of the rooms, but as of right now no one else is in those rooms. This means the cost wouldn't be split until there are others in them.

What are the rates for them? And proximity to your guys room and the con? I may still be interested, I know a few Spartans in my local fireteam mentioned MegaCon so I’ll run it by them too!

So the rooms are at host hotels. One is the Rosen Center and the other is at the Hilton. I don't have the rates off hand atm, but I know it was approx $290 for the entire stay if split 4 ways. I cns get you the exact when im a bit more stationary here in a bit

No rush on it and thanks! I’ll run it by the others on the fireteam and see if we can fill up a room!!

To all who are coming to MegaCon (and those still on the fence) - I would like to make "in-world" Handler shirts for each individual who has/wants to commit to helping those of us in armor over the course of the weekend.

This is a front and back example of what I want to do (Spartan Version), with the new ones getting some refinements.

Back Front
The ODST version will replace the Spartan Logo on the front with the UNSC logo, and the sleeve hit will be replaced with the ODST logo, to (semi) match the styling of the shirts seen in the "We are ODST" trailer. The back will have "ODST" in large font, with "UNSC Special Forces" in small lettering. (Or your battalion/fireteam/left blank, if desired)

If you are confirmed as joining us for Megacon and are willing to commit to a few hours of helping around the booth with water, armor donning/doffing/issues, making sure armored individuals don't bump into people, etc, please put your information into this sheet, and I will bring you a shirt! The form has columns for the customization I plan to do - please fill out every field. If I don't have all the info, I will default to a Spartan Affiliated, no rank shirt.

Each shirt will have a default rank next to the customized name
Spartan Affiliated Handler: Major
Spartan out of armor: Captain or Deployment Identification Number (DIN)

ODST Affiliated Handler: Gunnery Sergeant
Out of Armor ODST: Sergeant or Staff Sergeant + DIN

I will supply the shirts and materials so I can have them ready to wear on the day of. If you are willing and able to donate to help me offset the cost of the shirts (about 7 dollars per shirt) that would be greatly appreciated!

I look forward to seeing everyone at Megacon, and thank you in advance to the Handlers that will be joining us!

Negative! Only that you help around the booth at some point during the weekend.
