jdonn Posted March 11, 2010 Report Share Posted March 11, 2010 I'm a bad organizer but I'm going to the entire tournament and have never been able to make one of these things. Maybe the first weekend? Anyone? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Echognome Posted March 11, 2010 Report Share Posted March 11, 2010 I'm in. Except for the first Saturday unfortunately. Meeting up with my bro. We should have something that lets people now we are BBFers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TimG Posted March 11, 2010 Report Share Posted March 11, 2010 What are the dates? Its conceivable that I might be up for playing if I could scrounge a partner The NABC starts today if I am not mistaken. Edit: Appears the NAP started yesterday, though there are no results posted at the ACBL website. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoAnneM Posted March 11, 2010 Report Share Posted March 11, 2010 I am there, we stuffed 5000 tote bags yesterday. I will find the message board today, and post a signin sheet. Maybe someone can decide on a time and place in the hotel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jjbrr Posted March 11, 2010 Report Share Posted March 11, 2010 Bleh I can't come to Reno. How about also Philly? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rogerclee Posted March 11, 2010 Report Share Posted March 11, 2010 I'll be there Thursday night until (the next) Monday morning for the entire tournament. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JanM Posted March 11, 2010 Report Share Posted March 11, 2010 I'll be there for the whole thing also. Will be in the Vanderbilt area from Monday-Friday either playing or doing Vugraph. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peachy Posted March 11, 2010 Report Share Posted March 11, 2010 I'll be there the whole time. Unless I see Josh or someone decide on day and time, I'll look for it at the NABC information desk. If it is in the morning hours, there are several areas in the renovated hotel-casino that can informally accommodate, say, a gathering of 20 people. PS. My Red Ribbon partner had to cancel his trip. Anyone want to play with me Thu-Fri 3/18-3/19, either that event or Silver Ribbon? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rbforster Posted March 11, 2010 Report Share Posted March 11, 2010 I'll be around the whole week. Keep us posted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akhare Posted March 11, 2010 Report Share Posted March 11, 2010 Sigh...I was looking forward to making it. But things just picked up at work and my bosses won't be very happy if I have to go out of town at that time... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barmar Posted March 11, 2010 Report Share Posted March 11, 2010 I'll be arriving late Saturday afternoon, and I'll be there through the end as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdonn Posted March 11, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 11, 2010 Who is deciding a time and place, anyone?? Not me... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Echognome Posted March 12, 2010 Report Share Posted March 12, 2010 Why don't we decide that for whoever steps up and organizes, we will find the information at the NABC Information booth? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peachy Posted March 12, 2010 Report Share Posted March 12, 2010 Why don't we decide that for whoever steps up and organizes, we will find the information at the NABC Information booth? If I know what the forumers have in mind, I could step up and do it. How long? With or without food or drink? When? I spoke to Grand Sierra (Randy, manager of Player's Club). There is a large seating area next to the Players Club and that area is quiet, typically empty all day and night, has seating enough for more than what our group would need, and it is free = at no charge, to use. Located to the left of the main entrance where the bronze horses statue is. Or to the right, if you are looking toward the main entrance from inside the casino floor, next to the Player's Club customer service (opposite wall from the restaurants). If this works, fine. If not, let me hear suggestions and be happy to get this going in some other direction. Then, what day and what time? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoAnneM Posted March 12, 2010 Report Share Posted March 12, 2010 That's a great idea because it is right next to the Starbucks and deli concessions. Maybe Tuesday between the afternoon and evening sessions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peachy Posted March 13, 2010 Report Share Posted March 13, 2010 That's a great idea because it is right next to the Starbucks and deli concessions. Maybe Tuesday between the afternoon and evening sessions? I may have not been clear. The place I suggested, is on the West wall, next to the Players Club customer service. The Starbucks lobby is in the the South end of the floor and of course also a possibility though it may be filled with travelers and Starbucks customers while the Players Club room is normally empty.

JoAnneM Posted March 14, 2010 Report Share Posted March 14, 2010 There is a message board next to the partnership desk in the Summit Pavilion but I haven't put up a paper, sorry I am just swamped. I will try to do it in a few minutes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoAnneM Posted March 14, 2010 Report Share Posted March 14, 2010 Okay, I have posted a sheet on the back of the the panel they are using at the partnership desk. It faces the playing area. I am still not sure where the meeting is so I just put Tuesday afternoon....... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Posted March 17, 2010 Report Share Posted March 17, 2010 Ok I'm at Port O Subs in the basement with my daughter Abby - and its 530 local time. I suppose I'll check back but I will plan on getting a Starbucks at about 615. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
