  • Goddammit I want to go again...But I do not have a job or money...
    Hrrrmmm...
  • You didn't mention the biggest news. MaSu is coming BACK!
  • I'll buy my tickets tomorrow (payday), but I noticed there's an issue with the hotel. It says all Sunday nights are booked and nothing's available. I checked Magfest's Facebook and they said it's just an error in the system, Sunday isn't sold out, check back in a little.
  • This isnt pax you have more then enough time to get a room.
  • All right, it's happening this time. I've wanted to check out Magfest for a few years, and now I'm committing. Let's do this!

    Anyone up for doing a room share?

    Oh I know there's no hurry but I've always felt its best to book a hotel ASAP. Why not? After all, it doesn't cost you anything until you arrive so there's no reason not to book early.

    I am all down for MAGSuite, best way to party.
  • Reserving my room once the discounts are up. (They are having issues at the moment) I've converted nearly 6 local people to come to MAGFest.

    Also, Ninja Sex Party live performance please?

    Awesome! I'll probably just get a regular room with a max of 4 or 5 people (uncomfortable booking anything larger than that). If anyone else is interested in joining in, let me know.

    Also, just submitted a panel. Crossing my fingers for acceptance!

    This is why you need MAGSuite.

    Because I could not edit the previous post MAGCondo.
  • Am I missing a whole lot on Thursday if I just come for the weekend? Or Sunday for that matter if I decide to drive home?
  • edited September 2014
    Thursday is mainly room party day. Its cool if you know people to get some pregaming in, but if its easier for you to come in later its no real bother.

    Since this year is a Fri-Mon con you will be fine. If it was a Thurs-Sun con you will be missing out on the early concerts.

  • Flight booked for MagFest. Probably book a hotel closer to the event.
  • It appears that I have been assimilated to the MAGStaff...oh boy this will be interesting.
  • Schedule is up. The concert times are a bit all over the place, but I cannot wait.

  • I hope everyone going has fun for me. I swear, if people don't go to MAGProm with the Protomen playing 80's covers...

    Not going. Whatchagonnado? ;P

  • I'll go and have a blast to make up for Nuri.
  • Will probably be too busy holding down the Nidhogg tournament. If my current power level is to be believed I think I can actually take this one.
  • I am running the action castle panel at the ass end of the fest. Come join.

    I'm going dressed as Jem.
  • That is, truly, outrageous.
  • Anyone know any good restaurants in the area?

    Eat at the places in National Harbor next to MAGFest. They aren't incredibly good, but are good enough. The convenience makes up for whatever they lack in quality.
  • MAGFest is way easier then most conventions. This is my list in order of personal preference:

    -Order in: Go to the Concierge and ask for take out menus. Cheap, easy, and fast enough.
    -Grocery store: A few good pre-maid items. Eat some fruit. Not really overpriced. Good beer.
    -Nando's: Good chicken. Good price. Fucking crowded. Get take out.
    -Hot dogs/potbelly: Down by the docks. Less crowded then other places.
    -Freshii/Elevation burger: Decent. Overcrowded at peak hours. Still crowded at off hours.
    -High end Chinese/Mexican/Steakplace/Italian/Seafood: Outside of price ranged EXCEPT at lunch.
    -Gaylord is OK at best. Pricey, but occasionally convenient.
