The official ARGFest hospitality suite is in room 2412
is that where we go on friday to get our registration packettes? And do we need our argfest confirmation codes?
BIG-ASS EDIT/RECTIFICATION ALERT
Ok, contrary what I posted earlier, actually, badge and packet pickup will be at room 2412, starting noon (which, *cough*, is 2 hours ago:)).
Those not attending the cocktail party or not around at all on friday can pick up their badges and registration packets at the registration desk in front of the conferenceroom.
Locations:
Cocktailparty: CARVER ballroom
Conference: EXETER conferenceroom (6th floor)

Does anyone know if some of the speakers powerpoints will be available online? There were some I would really like to watch again even though they won't be the same without the accompanying speech (or song in one case)

We'll try and get that organised. I know that Jan Libby put hers online and linked to it on Twitter: clicky . If we get a hold of the other presentations, we'll make sure to make them available.

My 3 minute speech on ARGs in education from the speech blitz is attached. I'll see about getting it a more permanent home on the web soon.

What a blast Hey everyone - a very rare post these days on uF (New Year's Resolution #17). Just wanted to say I had a great time seeing all of you again and wanted to give a big thanks to the organizers. The only complaint I heard was that it was too short!
And for those of you who may have felt like you missed out on something since last year, I offer you solid proof that while times may change - some things always stay the same (with double photo cred to konamouse):

Can't wait to do it all again.

Hey everyone, this is Bill (rekidk's friend that no one knew).
I was motivated to make a UF account after experiencing everything at ARGfest, and I have to say, it was a great time.
Thanks to everyone who was very welcoming to someone who had no idea what was going on, and I'm looking forward to actually jumping in and playing some games now!

Yey Bill! You rocked! Thanks for diving right in and handling all the weirdness with only a few looks of "oh my god what the hell am I doing here..."
Welcome to UF!

That's funny, the look on my girlfriend's face when we walked into the hospitality suite said the exact same thing.
We still had a great time, and it was fabulous to see everyone.
