I won't be going to AN, but the Moonlight Ball has been good every time I went. Though it helps to go with someone of course ;]
Indeed it does. Steve and I will be going together :D

If I was staying at the hotel it was being held at, I probably wouldn't have minded going alone, but it's at the Marriott, and I will be staying at the Sheraton. I mainly wanted someone to go with for the sake of not having to walk back to the Sheraton in the dark alone.

But the fact that I'm going with Steve just makes it infinity times better :D

I went once in 2009, but I didn't stay long (can't remember why though :P )

Yeah, the walk back is definitely the not so good part. Cause its dark and whatnot. I even ran into an anime fan looking to bum a room for the night, but I ignored them. So weird.

I wonder, how long do the shuttles run? I guess they'd probable stop later at night?

I'm not sure when the shuttles stop, but the moonlight ball goes 'till 2am-ish IIRC.

There is a shuttle there, but not back. The bus still runs, but not very often.
Context isn't always a good thing.

I've never taken the shuttle. But I think that even if I did, late at night, I probably still wouldn't want to take it alone. Just a security measure I guess *shrug*

Hey Brad, when you sent off our money etc, did they say when approximately we would get our confirmation e-mails? Just curious, so Steve and I know when to look out for it :)

Supposedly once they receive it and process it, I am supposed to hear from them. I didn't have a paypal acct or a credit card to use so I wasn't able to do it directly online so I had to mail them a money order through the mail. As soon as I hear from them I'll let you know. I don't expect it to be much longer but if I don't hear from them I will certainly get a hold of them. So no worries :3

Attention people who signed with group registration!!

Just so that people are aware of it, and NOT to cause confusion/panic.

There has been some potential issues with Anime North receiving our money order. We are currently looking into it, and will announce any updates into the matter.
We DID mail it off following ALL of their instructions; any problems would be through either Anime North losing it, or the postal service losing it.

Just thought that people should be aware of it. This should have been posted sooner, I know, but we thought it might have just need time.
We hope that everything will work out, and that everyone (cause it would be everyone) doesn't get shit on by AN/postal service this year for our big event.

I hope you guys had common sense enough to send that amount of $$ by one of the methods that allows you to track its location!

But regardless, there are only 500 and some odd weekend admissions left, and they are refundable up until May 18th. I have just ordered a new set for Steve and myself online, just in case our original order doesn't turn up. (If it does before May 18th, then I will get it refunded, but I didn't want to risk waiting, and then it becomes full, and then we can't go at all).

I suggest everyone else here do the same. You will have to order them online now, as ordering through regular mail is closed. Like I said, if our original one shows up before May 18th, then we can get the new ones refunded, but if we just wait it out, we run the risk of not getting to go.

If it wasn't for the attendance cap, I wouldn't do this, I would just say 'yeah, let's wait it out.' But with the attendance cap, I don't want to risk not getting to go is all.


And if our original doesn't show up, something tells me that there will be no way to get our money from it back, which really sucks . . .

If you have the receipt for the money order and it did get lost in the mail you can take it to the post office and get that money refunded so its not a bunch of money down the drain for everyone

That would be a wise thing to do if it doesn't show up :)

I've had it happen before so it's always a good idea to keep the receipt for it.

Yeah it would be a good idea to get another one. Once I have internet at home I'm gonna email everyone with the situation (get internet tomorrow).
