i'm getting in kinda late on friday evening. (i'm bummed i'll be missing cb2bk) the schedule says there's a meet and greet at the ARGfest hotel around 8 -- do we know where in the hotel? is there a bar?

So�did everyone actually get that confirmation text message for c2bk?

The schedule for Friday evening is C2BK, dinner on your own, and then cocktails and registration begins at the Holiday Inn bar. Complete schedules with details will be available in the registration packets.

Here is the text of the C2BK confirmation email, in case you didn't get one:

Oh... email I got, just not a text message (as in, on that appears on your phone).. perhaps a terminology mixup?

Counting the days!

countdown days are < 1 now... hojo and I are heading out at midnight to the airport to take off in the morning and arrive in SF tomorrow afternoon, to meet up with Evan Jones, with a full day to take in some sites before C2BK and argfest
*also stoked*

friday dinner after 7:00pm "on your own", although groups will probably be formed ad hoc. For late arrivals to the hotel (or people not doing C2BK), perhaps groups will leave word at the front desk where people might meet them for dinner. Otherwise, the bar is definitely a great place to congregate after 8-9pm (unless you have an underage guest with you, but I'm sure things will work out)

So far, I have 3 limousine trips with my little Prius lined up for SFO arrivals. No one coming into the Oakland airport has requested a pickup, so I'll assume they've all reserved a shuttle transport. The BART connection from SFO sounds easy enough for people not on my schedule, but you are still welcome to ask me for a pickup at the other end, for the final leg from the BART station to the hotel. Find me online somewhere and i'll give you my cellphone number to use on Friday.

For those of you Web 2.0 kids, here's my 30 boxes cal for ARGfest.
Calendar | iCal subscription | csv for outlook

And if you prefer google, for some reason (possibly there's a time zone issue - I don't use gcal.)

Speaking of C2BK - If any folks are planning on pre and/or post Cruel 2 B Kind cocktails. I recommend House of Shields at 39 New Montgomery (just off Market St. across from the Palace hotel). And I'm not just saying that cause the owners are friends of mine. Ok, maybe a bit. But it really a nice place to grab a drink, and is almost 100 years old so you can say you were just doing historical research.
