Re: Preregistration for April 26th-28th

What is the policy on campfires, & availability of wood on site for said same? We'd love to do some attended campfire-ing & cooking over the weekend for ourselves (& whoever else wants to camp with us, space still available in our 14x25 tent! 1GP for bed (BYO mattress or sleeping bag) & breakfast (bed both nights, Sat AM Breakfast, Sat night smores & Sun potluck).
 
Re: Preregistration for April 26th-28th

Hi Bill,

There are a few campfire rings and BBQ grills where you are allowed to blaze. I know the site furnishes wood and generally there has never been an issue getting it.

Since you are bringing a tent, coordinate with me when you guys get onsite for a good tent location based on your needs wants etc.

Thanks,

Paul
 
Re: Preregistration for April 26th-28th

You should add me to list Paul. Also, I think we shall be tenting.
 
Re: Preregistration for April 26th-28th

Just to let you guys know, you can't bring outside fire wood into the camp ground. They have plenty of wood there and it is pretty cheap.
 
Re: Preregistration for April 26th-28th

To all tent campers. I'm going up to the campsite either Thursday night or early Friday morning. If anyone wants me to save them a site let me know. It is $4.00 per tent/ per site. So just let me know how many tents you are using. Everyone can just pay me when they get there. If you have a certain site in mind let me know, if not I'll talk to Paul and figure out what the best sites for everyone.
 
Re: Preregistration for April 26th-28th

Okay... I know its a first time and all, but I didn't see anything posted prior regarding additional fees for tent camping. And I have been in contact with several people in prep for tent camping at this event already, who did not mention an upcharge. I understand this is my first weekend Alliance event. However: I have LARPed at MacQueen in tent before. Hell, I've CAMPED at MacQueen in tent before. And never had to worry about an upcharge. This may be why there's a "discount", but it would have been nice to know about the tent upcharge in advance.

Can I get an explanation on this one, please?

Thank you in advance.

Still looking forward to the event...

Re: Preregistration for April 26th-28th

The $4.00 per tent / per night is the price Mcqueen charges not Alliance. Since we have elected not to stay in the cabins with everyone else Paul is giving campers $10.00 off the reg price as he mentioned above.

It's a net discount, beyond that I'd check with Paul as he might be covering the tenting fee as well since he deals directly with the site, he'll just need exact numbers.
 
Re: Preregistration for April 26th-28th

I will pay the tent camping fees for the site as well, no need to fret. I did not mention them to new players or in general because I never intended to make anyone pay for them thus why bring it up? I rarely ever pass a cost on to my players that I can manage to pay out of pocket.

While it's true that we have in the past asked folks to sleep in the cabins first to save ourselves the $4 a tent, thats when we had 15-20 players and struggled to pay the site fee, insurance, and everything else. Now that we've grown to 35-40 players and the cabins are stretched to their limits, im glad to cover $4 because we have so many more players to help cover all these costs and for each person in a tent we have another spot in a cabin for someone who can't tent it. Be it a player from another chapter, or just preference.

We appreciate the faith our players old and new place in us in trusting them with their entertainment. If I could, I'd run free events for everyone, however, I'm not independently wealthy yet so I gotta ask for your continued help and patience while we try to make fair policies for everyone. If anyone is ever concerned about a policy or struggles due to a change, reach out to Rob D or Myself by email and we will be glad to bend over backwards and twist like pretzels to make your game worth it.

I look forward to seeing all of you guys out there.

Paul
 
Re: Preregistration for April 26th-28th

I did not mean to come across as kvetching; I just got confu-sed, is all!

We will be prepaying shortly; if we do any of the math wrong, please let us know at the site, & we will be happy to remunerate as necessary!

Ah, the joys of trying to work out math at 1am! :)

Thank you for everything, Paul (and everyone else!), & See you all there!!!
 
Re: Preregistration for April 26th-28th

Re: Preregistration for April 26th-28th

How does sleeping in a van work? Does it count as tent sleeping?
 
Re: Preregistration for April 26th-28th

Yeah that would count in my mind, I just hope that would be comfortable.
 
Re: Preregistration for April 26th-28th

Last day to get in those pre-reg's and food notices. Can't wait to see everyone for the opener! :hahaha:
 
Re: Preregistration for April 26th-28th

Still hoping for a ride. If I can get one, I'll be there.
 
Re: Preregistration for April 26th-28th

How early can we arrive on site?
 
Re: Preregistration for April 26th-28th

6 PM is when site opens officially. Reality is I may not open logistics till 7:30 or even 8. But once your through logistics you are welcome to begin a soft rp only lay on.
