[Darian Ordo]

Thanks.

I can't remember how many we went through but it was quite a few.  I also remember runing out of business cards.

[BedlamX]

I'll be picking up 1000 cards next week (or at least Kelly will if I can't) and a table banner for Visioncon, so should have enough left for PCC, too. I made them pretty generic with only the Mercs' logo and Yustapir clan on them, so anyone can use the same ones.

[Kantis Nolef]

I don't know if any of the Yustapir folks check out the Nolef section but I issued a challenge to my squad, if we can become a clan by PCC, I'll shave my beard off. See if you can get my guys riled up for it. 

[Darian Ordo]

Yeah I saw that and on Facebook.  I'm almost tempted to move.........almost.

[Ajax Kaal]

Hey there Darian, if you could post how much is going to be expended, we could know how much the group is looking at trying to come up with to help you. I will try to pitch in some, but need to know how much you are looking at....

Thanks.

Ajax.

Darryl Woods (Darth Artist) is working on getting the tables. He gets ours and his at the same time, so they're together. I think we're getting two at $80 a piece. I believe Darryl's going to cover some of our expense and let us know what amount we'll be responsible for. Once we've go that, I'll let everyone know! Thanks for the offer Kevin!

[Kantis Nolef]

Are you guys going to make Darryl an Honorary member?

[Darian Ordo]

I believe it was discussed but haven't heard anything else about it.  Gabby just got a PM from Novall asking the same question.  Bedlam, is this something you are working on for PCC? 

[BedlamX]

To tell the truth, I thought he was already an honorary member

I haven't had much to do with getting ready for PCC since I wasn't expecting to actually make the con until a couple weeks ago.

[Darian Ordo]

I know it was discussed last year after PCC since he was so cool to work with and such but I think after the switch over in command things got lost in the shuffle.  No blame being thrown either direction, just didn’t know if this was still something that is being considered or not. 

I’m all for doing it, just don’t know what everyone would like to do as far as getting him a plaque and such.  We have a few weeks to get things done but it is probably something that we need to get on. 

Tommy, I don’t want to step on toes or anything so if this is something you want to work on with Chris just let me know.  Personally I’d like to get him a nice plaque or something and one of the membership badges that are being offered.

[BedlamX]

Never worry about stepping on my toes. I gots small feet and wear safety toe boots 

I looked around for the "How to" thread on getting teh plaques and such, but can not, for the life of me, find it again  . I'm all for getting this done, just not really sure how to go about it and if there is a certain place to get the plaque and badge (assuming I order the badge from Baelan, but that is just a guess at the moment) from.

Getting this late a start on this con planning is messing me up, so I'll gladly take any help I can get on this deal.

By the way...wife just picked up the banner and cards, so got that covered for us. I couldn't quite afford the 2'x8' size, but got it printed at 18" x 6' (the size of most of the con tables I wind up with anyway) and it looks fantastic. First use will be at Visioncon this weekend  .

[Darian Ordo]

Sounds like a good deal.  I'll see if I can find the thread and if there is a set design or if we can run with an idea.  There is a good place here in town to get the plaque done if no one else has a place already set up.  Balein is the guy for the ID badge and I'd suggest we get with him soon so we can make sure it is done in time.

[Darian Ordo]

Found it 

http://mercs.firespray.net/forum/index.php?topic=21772.0

looks like we need to submit the info to the PR officer.  I don't think we are going to have an issue since Tom has asked about us bringing him in already.

[Kantis Nolef]

Boy, I'm full of questions.

What are we going to do for the group dinner?
