*huggles*

I would definitely want to go to this - June/July would technically work best for me, but if it were to be around New Years I'd certainly try to adjust my schedule around this event. I'll have a better idea of whether or not January will be possible after I decide what I'll be doing for the next 3-4 years or so. Other than timing, finances will probably be my biggest worry, but it helps knowing about this way ahead of time.

I also thought the name was going to be Kiwiblat. :(

Time isn't an issue to me, but money is, so if I do not win in the lottery before 2009, I'm at 0%.

Jeep. That sounds very weird after Cic's article
Tamuz is the expression of the alienated, of the ambitious, of the dispossessed.

Sounds like a blast, but it depends on what the heck I'm doing with my life in 2010. Guess I'll try and figure that out.

I'm gonna say mid January would be good for me. It's only about half a days drive for me so I'd probably make it there. One of my mates comes from Palmy so we'd probably both go up together.

Also, rugby? I'll have to bring my Springboks jersey and Sharks cap. :D

Also, if you really want some cool shirts, I'm sure I can come up with a design. I've been a flash animator for nearly 6 years now, so I'm quite handy with a pencil. Also, the shirts should be black, after all that is our color.

Given the great success that was Starkadium, I am inspired to save my money and make this more like a 50% chance of attending.

I missed this when it was posted earlier! The later the better for Dirge/MeMe/Atticus (no idea if Fletcher would come along since he'll be out on his own by summer 2009). I'll research prices so we can start saving -- our presence FULLY depends on our ability to do so as we're 100% on desire alone.

So...um...20 percent for the lot of us?

Has it been officially decided that this will be a New Years 2010 event?

Not official yet - I'm still very interested in people's opinions on when it should be held.

I'm still trying to decide between January 2010 and enjoying NZ at its best or July 2010 with cold, yucky weather but easier for some people to get the time off. Heck I'd even put it off another year if it meant the Dirge/MeMe household might be able to come.

Well put my vote in for December '09/January '10. And the longer its held off, the more likely I'll actually move on with my life and start a career or something, which would probably keep me from coming.

Not that its terribly likely I'll ever get a real job.

1) Very Begining of January since school doesn't start till half was through. Perfer 2010(going to ireland england in 2009 march), or even march (I could turn 21 in kiwiland....wait do you have a drinking age *curious*)

2) Want to say 100...but I will try cause nz is on my list of places so let's say 75 for now

3) Tallithon (like telethon) lol j.k i like kwiesta.

I like the new years thing, but I couldn't make it >.< I can't get time off during the time (from november thanksgiving time till new years is blacked out for time off) I wouldn't mind arrive a few days after everyone though. But yeah.
*insert bad joke here*
