What I'd Expect...

Lawlbringer

Getting out of work late that day and have to be in early the next day, someone at work died and my day off was cancelled. Was gonna travel to meet a group, but now I'm just going to see it at the 34th street leow's.

Would rather have wound up at the surprise party with paramount pictures funded drinks, but such is life.

Maybe it's really a ploy and it's just a cultist suicide party and all the winners are really losers in that fact.

Worst case scenario is MGP actually comes to the city. In that case, we're all screwed.

I think the best advice for anyone going is that you should have no expectations. I remember for the Year Zero ARG there was a "meeting" in Hollywood that everyone felt was going to lead to a free NIN concert since the location was across the street from a high school gymnasium. The meeting turned out to be a clue and not a concert, as many had expected.

I went because it is close to me. But I ran into people there that drove down from Sacramento that were really disappointed. On the message boards, there was a guy that said that he flew in from Germany and he was actually pi$$ed off.

So my best advice is to just take it as an excuse to go to NYC for the weekend and if anything cool happens than it is a bonus. I did not get a call, but that is how I justified to the wife and she was totally down for it.

The winners don't get "tickets"
They take your info and you show up with your driver's license
I promised Shadowfury my ticket. At that time I had missed the call.
I called back and then they ended up calling me back for the invite.
If I could pass it on, I absolutely would

Greetings! Long time lurker, first post.

I got the call at 8:48 pm EST. She asked if my the name in my RSVP matched the name on my ID. Told her my wife's name for my plus 1 and she asked me if she was over 18. I told her I wasn't that kind of a guy, of course she is. She told me to bring my camera "so I can post pics on myspace."

So, I don't know what I'm wearing (a battle in itself), but I'll be rocking a Nikon D40x with a zoom lens. We're going to try to get there by 9ish. Find a bar close by if we have to, there are many.

I really hope they have a screening.

18+... probably not an open bar.

Other than that, I have no expecations.

Can't wait.
