I might stay Friday night, $100 is really the most reasonable cost for a con hotel that I've ever seen, but bringing the wife with I'm going to have to spend at least one night in Niagara Falls for her sake.

I was going to offer a room for people to crash at my place, but $100 to be even closer sounds like a solid deal.

I was never much of a fan of coasters when I was younger and my GI tract seems to like them much less these days.
Who is GI Tract? Is that a foreign exclusive?

Gastro-intestinal tract.  More robust ones are pretty much foreign to me and exlcusive to younger people    :'(

I have a stupid question here, last year the exclusive was the HATE tank and it was a limited run of 100 units.  How in the world did they get them?  Was it a preorder on the website and you just picked it up at the Con?  Were they raffled off has a door prize?  or was there a booth that someone was selling them?  This will be my first Con so I wanted to make sure I did it right.

Do people camp out the night before to be first in line?  Or can I just leave very early in the morning to make sure I do get disappointed?

People get there very, very early.  I was about 20 back when I got there last year at 5am.

Yeah I remember it as if it was yesterday. Don't you find it weird that every year we somehow manage to end up one behind the other in the lineup? There are unknown forces at work at the Canadian Joe Cons that I simply cannot explain...

Things may change a little this year.

I'll know better once I have some time to sit down and plan things out - but dealers can set up the night before, so I may offer some sets (25-50) to be pre-ordered a week in advance for a Friday night pick up.

Things are going to be much different this year - in a good way if everything goes according to plan.  :shifty:

That is great news! I will have to keep my eyes glued to this site so I can get on the preorder!  :shifty: I thought I would have to stoop down to and pay some college student to camp out so I would not miss out!  :lol:
