Hey all!

I plan on being at Blizzcon this year as well. Does anyone have any specific plans to meet up?

Twistgibber will be returning to Uldum and will be attending Blizzcon as well.

Hurray for Warlocks!

BUMP! Is this list still valid for meeting up for dinner on Saturday? Anyone else to be added? Still need to figure out where to go for dinner or something?

Well if Twistgibber (Kevin2) will be there, we might add him to the dinner list.
And no, we havn't picked a place, though I have a rough idea as to the time: whenever we get out of the closing ceremonies with Ozzy.
If someone knows something in the area that can accommodate our raid, and possibly does reservations, that'd be great.

Edit: Google brings up some options in the nearby Downtown Disney, the most appealing I think might be House of Blues - http://www.houseofblues.com - (714) 778-2583.

Okay, newest list, so I can keep things straight:

Richard
Katy
Cenon (need to ping him and check)
Wynne
Tony
Jeremy
Mara
Kevin2/Twist
Joe2/Eloric

Anyone else?

The current plan is dinner on Friday night, and dinner on Saturday night. This is not finalized, however.

Also, are there any "oh God, no, not there, please" requests?

House of blues is OK there. It's kinda small, and the food is only average.

If we're talking about downtown Disney, Catal is really good but it is also easily $30+ per person.
Their menu is a single page PDF:

The schedules are up; Depending on how much people want to watch, events seem to run till 9pm both days. For my usual con survival kit, this means if eating at 10 is late, bring a snack.

Please not the ESPN Zone at Downtown Disney. It is impossible to hear/talk to anyone in that place, the food is never right the first time, and the service is far below my standards (which I don't think are that high, honestly).

Down the street is the new Gardenwalk area and they have some nice places. Fine dining includes: Bar Louie Tavern & Grill, Bubba Gump Shrimp Co., California Pizza Kitchen, Fire + Ice, McCormick & Schmicks Grille, P.F. Chang's China Bistro, Pop the Cork, Roy's Hawaiian Fusion Cuisine, and The Cheesecake Factory. I'm sure all places take reservations and I'd be happy to make them for us if we can decide on a time and place for either night.

Last quick question before I make any reservations (unless someone else wants to handle that) -

Do people have preferred price ranges?

I'm guessing very few of us are looking to hit Ruth's Chris level stuff, for example.

Me, I'd be okay with a place that was around $20ish a person. It IS a special occasion, after all. ^_^

With the options presented, I am suddenly struck by the 'oh god no' options; the bars, bubba gump, CPK, PF Chang, and 'fusion' cuisine are right out for me.
