Isn't it great?
It's gonna be so much fun!Hmmm... Bollywood: no clue. Alan Tudyk Film: um, a pirate? There will be a few of those I bet. Maybe... someone mediaeval looking? Like a squire? James Bond: I think a tux would work, yes, but scary too.

nice to see lots of names I can now put faces to... and also to see that lots of people are going to sign up for the next one too!
I have a question about buying the tickets: if one is paying by the old-fashioned method of cheque not credit card, can it just be posted off asap - and to what address? Is it on the starfury website? (For some reason the website still isn't working on my computer - I know they had some problems earlier, but it could just be my dial-up).
Thanks.

I suspect - but don't quote me - that they might tell you where to send a cheque and who it should be 'to' when you phone them up. But this is a guess.

I suppose my only reservation is the fact that this one won't be exclusively Firefly based - haven't seen a single second of the new Battlestar Galactica so have no opinion on it, but hope guests from that show don't outnumber our faves.

I think you're the first person to even think about that 
Everyone else is all fixated on the Firefly/Serenity aspect

Ok I've talked a friend (I think) into coming with me and she's buying the tickets Wednesday so I'll definitely be there.
In response to the party themes
Friday Night: Bollywood Films - I'm thinking a sari or something similiar.
Saturday Night: Alan Tudyk (come as a character from an Alan Tudyk film) - no idea!! Help!!!
Sunay Night: James Bond - Bond girl, hmmm I could where a body stocking and paint myself gold!!! But I'd scare the wildlife so I'm thinking Pussy Galore head to toe in leather!!!
Cally
There's no place I'd rather be
Since I found Serenity

I'm sure there will be plenty of fans of both but there will undoubtably be folks like me who haven't seen BSG and folks who adore BSG but haven't seen Firefly or Serenity. I think the sensible thing to do when these two groups meet is to hum West Side Story and have a dance off.
When I paid by cheque, they just gave me an address but also advised me to send it recorded delivery as lots of mail had gone missing. If I were you, iamzoe, I'd find some friend with a credit card, possibly someone who is already booking a ticket themselves, to buy it for you and then you could send them the money.
Oh, just realised, in November I will be gloriously brown from three weeks on the beach in Australia. I knew I had a brother for a reason.
The Alan night actually says you can go as any character from an Alan Tudyk film which leaves a lot of possibilities open. Anyone want to be an alcoholic Sandra Bullock? No? Either way, I suspect Sean just wants to make Alan feel that he is tripping, surrounded by versions of himself or previous characters (plus Alan Tudyk was in Serenity so we could easily dress up as any characters from that).

And I've just realised that I might have a fading shimmer of brown tan left over from a week in Majorca at the beginning of October.
Actually it'll probably all be gone by then.
Dang.

I've only seen the mini-series of the new Galactica, and I thought it was good; but I know people who've seen the series and they say it's very good as well. Some of them are also Firefly fans, so their opinion counts more than most
A few of these friends also went to Collectormania at the weekend and met the BG guests. Opinion: nice people to meet and very easy on the eye
