Yeah just gonna do Tai Chi on the pool deck in the morning. No official panel. I'm thinkin' like 7:00 AM maybe 8.

I enjoy it a lot more when I'm not really restricted or need to fill up a time slot with it since it should be done just to relax and rejuvenate. If enough people wanna come by and join, then we can do some taichi along with breathing and chakra exercises.

I'm last-minute second-guessing this con. I /can/ go, but I don't know if I /really/ want to. I'm only going for one day, and I don't know if that's enough time for shenanigans or not.

I think if I could find a place to crash Friday night so I at least get in some Friday night drinking, I might have a better time, especially with the /cgl/ gathering that night. Other than that, I don't really know what I'm looking forward to at this con.

I'm sure you can find a game you like, and if all else fails you can bring your own games and I'm pretty sure you can play them in the game room. OR for the future, you are always able to give us suggestions for games to get for the following year. We do listen and we will take suggestions.

Pool deck isn't closed to non-con goers, just closed to non-hotel guests.

If you're a guest of the hotel, con staff cannot keep you out of the pool deck area. If they do, report them to the manager on duty at the Mariott, Marissa. I spoke with her and she confirmed that staying at the hotel grants rights to the pool deck and it is not for con use only.

OP here
i heard of this in the last thread but i passed it off as speculation. i have a badge but no room, how do i beat the system and get to my meetup on the pool deck? this is shitty for most people who are going to their cosplay meetups and have no hotel room, honestly

>> No.8039003

>>8038995
Go to the pool deck with your room key, show staff your room key. If turned away, report staff to the manager at the hotel. I literally just got off the phone with the manager on duty (Marissa) and confirmed that she will be there all of this weekend. She assured me that the pool deck is open to all non-con attendees, as long as they are a hotel guest.

Also she seemed pretty irked that con staff is spreading misinformation around. It's ALA's last year there, Mariott isn't going to let them get away like prohibiting access to a huge area when it's not in their contract.

>> No.8039017

>>8038995
Sorry, I misread your post. You're fine to access the pool deck as a con-goer with just a badge. Con security won't get uppity with you; my initial post there was intended for those without a badge who are staying at the hotel.
