Author Topic: Autumn AMV Clinic? Dates? (Read 10271 times)

For those interested, I can rent a small meeting room at the La Quinta in NW Portland (at the junction of Yeon, Kettridge, and NW St. Helens) for $80 for a Sunday afternoon, such as noon to 6pm. There's a convenience store across the parking lot with a Subway built in, so people can duck out for snacks and sustenance.

If we get 15 votes before 3-Oct-12 then I'll guess we should have at least 5 interested people.
(So plan on chipping in $16 each or less.)

Pick TWO dates.

This will be a clinic to bring projects, think up ideas, try out software and hammer out glitches.

I work every other saturday night so those days I'm kinda a zombie on sunday.

OK, the result is "actual enthusiasm FAIL."
We had two other voters besides myself.

Now the ball goes to someone else to see if he or
she can propose something else which might
generate more popular interest.

Feel free to propose any idea or meet-up and
we will see what happens,

(sorry about not showing interest before, but we are on a really tight budget right now, that we have to be picky. Tho If you hosting Paul I could send Chris some goodies for ya, ....like a jar of home made Chinese plum sauce? Tho I also want to get around to makin apple butter

I'm going to school full-time and working part-time so I'm on a REALLY tight schedule & budget. If it was during a term break or summer and it was somewhere I could physically get to I'd be interested but I realize that's an incredibly specific and vague set of specifications; which is why I haven't said anything.

Sunday, 21-Oct-12 I could also make it into town.
Any ideas for a location? Do three people want to chip in $26 each to rent the room at the La Quinta (and if other people show up then they chip in and it gets redistributed - the math will work out.)
Or do we want a library meeting room (are some of these free?)

Do tell,

That Sunday works for me as well and I would like to join. I think all of my other large projects will be off the table at that point.

Do you think your place would work Paul?

melchizedek · « **Reply #12 on:** October 10, 2012, 06:02:18 pm »

Yeah we can have it at my condo, I live in cedar mill. Not that far from sunset transit for those taking max, and not that far from 26 for those that drive.

I can pm ppl my address that don't know already.

(also, I don't know if library rooms are free or not would need to check.)

(not counting avaliblity which looked like an hour or 2 is free in one or 2 rooms)

what hour ya guys thinkin?

melchizedek · « **Reply #14 on:** October 11, 2012, 05:02:58 pm »

if we were booking it on behalf of kumoricon it could be free. But for private use it looks like it isn't. I think the hotel guy mentioned is cheaper to rent sans that fact.

angryginger00 · « **Reply #15 on:** October 12, 2012, 08:54:03 pm »

So I guess the question is now Melchizedek which would you rather us do? Use your place or use the Library?

melchizedek · « **Reply #16 on:** October 14, 2012, 10:27:04 pm »

Lets just use my place, trying to get booked with the library as part of k-con seems like a hassle.

PM me and I'll send my addy / phone.

angryginger00 · « **Reply #17 on:** October 17, 2012, 10:19:08 pm »

Did we come up with a start time yet?

melchizedek · « **Reply #18 on:** October 18, 2012, 05:33:52 pm »

1 pm should work.

angryginger00 · « **Reply #19 on:** October 22, 2012, 08:19:41 pm »

I just wanted to thank Paul for hosting the event as his place yesterday and Guy for showing up giving us some new ideas on things to try.

melchizedek · « **Reply #20 on:** October 23, 2012, 10:43:32 pm »

Your welcome, it was cool having everyone come and visit also thanks for all the pointers and help for making AMVs.
