Concerning Dinner Thursday Night.

Hi, for those of you who don't know me, my name is KL and I'm going to be taking the reins on dinner for our first night at Dragon*Con. [livejournal.com profile] myras_girls was kind enough to do some snooping around, and I can happily say that we're going to be eating at Max Lager's Wood-Fired Grill & Brewery at 7:30 on Thursday evening. The grill is located at 320 Peachtree St., one block North of the Hyatt at Peachtree & West Peachtree. If you would like, you can visit their website here.

Now, we're trying to make this as easy as possible on everyone, so I need a little bit of information from you. Em would like to emphasize that we would like to keep this as close to our immediate parties and their roommates/drivers as possible. It would be impossible to wrangle restaurant space for 40 people.

[Poll #1451808]

We're all going to be incredibly busy, and I know that once people get to Atlanta things sometimes get scattered, so it is your responsibility to let us know if your plans change. It's one thing to ask for a table for 20 people and only have 15 show up, it's another if the problem is the other way around. (On the flip side, it's my responsibility to let you all know if something changes on this end. Man.) The restaurant does seem to have an online reservation service which I'd like to utilize if possible, so poke your friends if you know they're part of our group and get them to answer ASAP. I'll put in the reservation Thursday morning before I leave for Atlanta if at all possible.

If you'd like my phone number so you can let me know if things change or if you get lost or something, please leave a comment asking for it and I'll leave it for you in a screened reply. :)

ETA- I have reserved space for twenty people! If all of the maybes show up we'll just beg to pull up chairs. Aaaaaand...I'm spent!

Garr...I already know I can't make it. I have to be at the Alliance meeting at school then for Board Elections. D:

I want to come but at this point I don't know if I can.

If I do I will more than likely drag Bold Face along too.

Oh crap, I have to pack.

That restaurant is pretty tasty. They brew their own beer, too. :)

I'm working that night - but if I shake free early, I may swing by. Please do not worry about reserving for me. And I'm still planning to just catch you later anyway... but you never know. *shifty eyes*

I don't think I'll make it to dinner. My plane is landing at 7:09, so I'll be lucky if I have my luggage by 7:30.

But I'll see you at the Con!!!

Hiii! Sent over here via Em, I know we don't know each other so I figured I would say hi seeing as we will be meeting soon!

Thanks for organizing this. It's my first year at D*con and I am very excited! &hearts

You should also plan for [livejournal.com profile] honkie_mcgee and Deb. (He doesn't check lj often so he might miss this post, but I know he's planing to come.)
