| Subject: | [Not -quite- OT] ANDON SUCKS!!! |
| Date: | Mon, 12 Jul 1999 23:23:50 EDT |
addy book for some reason, I'm going here to say this.
Andon is annoying and sucks immensely. MVBD (or however that annoying
acronym goes) is *barely* any better.
First of all, UWM/Sandberg *IS* closed up. They *used* to have 1000 bed
allotments, but this year they started something new and only have *400* bed
allotments. They claim that "the interest isn't there as much, hence the
business isn't". How funny, every hotel we called today, and the MBVD both
stated calmly that "the roll call of visitors and reservations is UP this
year...they don't why UWM did what they did."
Second, I realize they are probably immensely busy people, but their ability
to organize the con is goofy at best. For some reason, I think this is
probably more Andon than Milwaukee Visitor Board's fault, but this is just me.
SO.
Everyone that doesn't have a room had better motivate themselves in a BIG
way. We have a room, but it isn't *that* close (we are closer, and cheaper,
than Bull got IIRC) to the con itself. But, as we are planning to do more
than just the con this year.
Later.
