Great idea FFG. I am bringing both of my digital cameras, all of my memory cards, and the rechargers for the batteries. I plan on getting all the pics w/ the BDHs & my fellow Browncoats that I can take and not get thrown out of the hotel.

I wonder if we will have sufficient opportunity to take pics w/ the BDHs? It would be nice to get to talk to them, if only briefly, outside of the tracks and autograph signings. Wonder if they will have time to spend w/ us browncoats.

I will have my laptop and cat5 (LAN) cable with me in Atlanta if there is Intenet access from the hotels. I will also have my dig camera as well. If there is access we could upload a few pics from there. Just an idea...

Will be nice meeting everybody.

Hey BC1,
I have a feeling we're going to luck out and be able to spend some time with our BDHs, unlike the rush job folks got at ComicCon. I believe the BDH's will be there at least a couple of days and will be around the whole day and not just during the Q & A and one autograph session.

Xyon, it would be shiny if we can upload real time! Do you have a multi card reader to connect to your laptop? If not I do, since we don't know what kind of memory cards everyone will have.

I'll be there! Dunno if I'll be able to make the Friday night get together, but I'll be sure to drop by the table and say howdy. Woo! BDHs a go-go!

Greetings,
my Browncoated friends! Count me in! This will be my umpteenth Dragon Con, but I've never been more excited about one, or indeed any Con that I can recall! I too like the idea of "standing out" I'll try and think of something! Can't wait to meet you all.

Count me in, I will try and sneak away from my duties in con registration to make the Friday gathering. Look forward to meeting all of you.

Time out, stop the presses, hold everything!!! The DragonCon schedule has just been posted, at 7pm Friday we will all be in Centennial 1 with our BDHs. My suggestion is to move our Browncoat meeting to the fan table, in the Marriott, after the session (about 8:30). There's another session behind Firefly, so we won't be able to stay in the Centennial room. With any luck, we may be able to convince our BDH's to join us!!

Sounds like a plan FFG! The schedule keeps getting changed & tweaked every day. Hopefully this one will hold.

Okay, so we meet at the table in the Marriott @ 8:30. I am sure of course that many of us will get to meet in the Centennial room before the BDHs make their entrance.

I had considered going in costume to the Centennial room, but think I will just go w/ my Blue Sun tee and shorts.

We'll definitely keep watch on the schedule.

BC1 I think it would be mighty shiny if you wore your costume to that first session!

Nope, not one that works. Thanks for offering to bring one. (of course my camera is set up to work with my computer and it should be a quick set up for any other camera as long as they have a cable connection for XP to reconize. :) )

Been talking about it with a friend that is going with and we have concluded that the hotels should have Internet connection but more than likely we will have to pay to use it. Something else to think about...
