I don't see why pushing it a week (so, October 2) would hurt anything and, to be honest, with all that's been going on in my life I was sort of dreading the deadline myself.

That said, earlier is better, if you have it done. That way we can get a start on going through them.

I suppose I can't turn mine in really super late? I had no idea there was even an RFP until Mapmaker mentioned something about it in chat.

Unfortunately, we are already a long way into the selection process and we cannot at this point accept anymore RFP's. Also, if you look at it, you'll probably see that it's not something you can quickly put together.

I'm afraid the best you can do is an eearly submission for ARGFest 2011 Neutral

For anyone who may be interested, I have formally submitted an application for ARGFest just now. I am also posting it here for the benefit of the community, so it may see what a real city is like.
My letter to the ARGFest Committee wrote:

Dear ARGFest Selection Cabal,

I apologize for the lateness of our fine city's entry. Due to some political upheaval, we have been having intermittent loss of services here. Furthermore, it is not well-known, but our country lies in Unfictionopian Daylight Time right now, which is UTC-104. Given these reasons, I am confident that you will seriously take this serious application seriously.

Sincerely,

Mapmaker

Love the street names.
Bunker caching sounds like fun.
Is there a Hash House Harriers chapter?

There very much should be.

I had a lot of fun with all the names - businesses, streets, and other geographic features. Almost all mean something! (Some just to me, but whatever...) The whole thing was a labor of love. Love of what, I'm not sure. I'm glad to hear that you guys (and those who posted elsewhere on uF and WuF) liked it.

Worshippy

You sir, are a genius, and that was one of the funniest things I've read. Like, ever.

Even though we are already far in the process of merrily eliminating potential ARGFest locations, I will definitely voice my opinion with my fellow committee members that we should give the West Unfictionpia entry some serious consideration.

That was brilliant!

Alas, I couldn't get my write-up for Miami in in time... I just had too much of a hard time trying to think of something good to say about this place. Razz

You think you had it bad...I spent a full half hour trying to think of something to say about Detroit...

We call that a "Pub Crawl." Emphasis on the crawl. And the (though not strictly mandatory) pub.

Soooo, yeah. Uhm, not to be the pain in your collective butt...

BUUUUT I sorta need to start planning now {read deciding if I can afford a trip by July}. I'm sure there are others in the same boat as I, much as I am also sure the committee has their hands full with tons of details and whatnots. But uhm... It is sorta mid November... any announcement about where forthcoming soonish like? Very Happy


/me gives you all the "please don't kill me for being "that person"" eyes & pout

Does it makes sense to have it in Canada? Are there enough people there to outweigh losing so many American uF'ers?

I vote Kansas City. Smack in the middle. XD
