so what happens on each day of the conference usually? I just booked my flights and I'll be leaving Boston on Sunday morning... will I miss anything?

Also what happens on the Friday during the day?

Also what happens on the Saturday during the day?

Also when is the drinking? Very Happy

Drinking is when you're thirsty.

We're a thirsty bunch.

Friday I'm usually walking around the city we're visiting, meeting & greeting the folks there already, and I think we're going to see Dark Knight. There will be some discussion about dinner during a bar visit and more drinking afterwards (often in someone's hotel room). Sometimes we're online in the chat rooms at the same time.

Saturday is the seminars and in recent years we have had to do a questfest to find dinner (it's fun, usually we're in teams and solve puzzles that take us around the local area). And of course more drinking and staying up late.

Sunday is brunch when we manage to find eachother down in the lobby. Sometimes there are locally organized tourist visits (take your pick of locations) but that is up to the ARGFest planners. I see from the wiki there are a lot of places to see. And people head over to the airport at various times.

Keep checking the wiki page for updates on the schedule.

Also a quick little note here - I don't know how well this idea has taken on, but I thought perhaps we could try forming the full watercolour painting from the Eldritch Errors rabbithole. A while back I added a table for people to say if they could bring their piece to the arg museum wiki page... it's still just me and Celina Wink

Anyone who's going to argfest, if you got the EE rabbithole, want to try and see if we can get all the pieces together? I think it would be a neat little accomplishment Smile

I think I may actually make the trip for this one. It isn't too far really (9 hour drive iirc) and my little sister has been yelling for me to come visit her in beantown.

Holy hell I just realized it will take over 6 hours by amtrak. O.O

That's not bad at all. Count me in, I just have to work the money for the hotel room.

Does anyone know which station to get off at in Boston?

Check the transportation page on the ARGfest wiki for everything you'd ever want to know about getting there.

I just booked my flight! It's still crazy expensive to fly to Boston from L.A. but due to the generosity of a couple of amazing players from WITG I will be able to attend! Hooray! Can't wait to see everyone there!
