FailFest '08 West Coast/East Coast (Sixflags, Magic Mountain, Busch Gardens)Info/Discussion

[Ksandra]

Ok making an official thread to start organizing the first ever FailFest. Basically for those who didn't read the fanfest thread, SE sucks and fanfest was sold out in 8 hours, leaving many bg people without tickets. So, we're still going to have fun by going to SixFlags Magic Mountain.

DATE: 12/06/2008

Current Schedule:

Meeting: Time: 9:00 Place: Right Outside Gate

Meeting info: Park opens at 10:00, but we will be handing out t-shirts/tickets/taking attendance/etc. Sorry it's an hour long but I don't want to rush and lose out on park time. If there is not a lot of people coming I will make the time later. Whatever time it is please please please try to be on time (this isn't dynamis damn it), so things can go smoothly.

Lunch: Time: 12:30-1:30 Place: TBA

Since hours so short going to have lunch time be our social time. Please come to the designated place during that time to eat/drink/and complain about FF!

Park Closing (gather together): 6:00 Place: outside gate

Final Farewell/Dinner: Time: 6:00-7:00? Place: TBA

Because hours are off-season and short we figured to go to dinner and chat. Depending on how many people we get will decide this greatly. Any suggestions is appreciated.

Tickets/Prices:

IF you preorder your tickets through me price is as follows:

Paypal account: Pay to [email protected]

Price:

IF YOU ARE PAYING DIRECTLY FROM YOUR PAYPAL TO MINE: 26$

IF YOU ARE PAYING BY CC/DEBIT: 27.50$ (I get charged about 1.60$ if you pay this way)


Note: Your name/server will get printed on your t-shirt to personalize it. In order to get a personalized t-shirt you MUST pre-order your ticket. We will make extras for those who don't but for obvious reasons it won't have your name/server on them.

UPDATE: you can preorder tickets up till 12/2 but names on t-shirts are now locked.

IF you do NOT want to prorder tickets through me options are as follows:

Preorder tickets from six flags website: 30$ http://www.sixflags.com/magicMountai...ets/index.aspx

Buy at the door: 60$ (afaik)

I STRONGLY recommend that if you don't want to purchase tickets through me, to purchase them online before you come.

Keep info and interest to this thread, I want PMs though if you are 98-100% coming. In the PM include the following form: (copypasta for greater goodness)


Ingame Name:

Server:

Age:

T-Shirt size (if you do NOT want a t-shirt please state here):

Do you have friends who are coming:

If yes, give me ingame name (if applicable)/age/T-shirt size(if applicable):

Are you willing to send me money to buy ticket ahead of time (please be honest, this will affect whether we buy group tickets or not):

Are you 100% coming:

If no, why:



Please keep comments/complaints/suggestions, outside the pm, and in this thread instead. PM is strictly for signing up.

Also, if you have a place where a few could stay, or you need a place to stay post in this thread. Sorry since organizing rest, I really have to leave it up to you to provide your own hotel.

However, we can try to organize a pickup from hotels so you don't have to buy a rental car, or have to walk too far. Try to keep hotel stays as close to 6flags as possible though if you want a pick up (not driving all around cali to get you guys).


I'd like this to go smoothly as possible so any help is appreciated. Let's have a lot more fun at Failfest than Fanfest guys!

[Ksandra]

Hey! I live 30 mins from Six Flags in So. Cal!

Then come! It seems a lot of people live in cali were planning on going to fanfest and didn't manage to get tickets. I had enough people that seem interested enough to post this. The more people coming the better imo!


Current plan:

1. Call 6flags

2. Find cheap white t-shirts

3. Find someone to design T-shirts

4. ????

5. Profit

Remember when I said you didn't owe us anything for getting your attestation?

I LIED.

Oh, small note of importance:

Hours for this day are 10 am to 6 pm. Its the slow time of year for amusement parks.
For reference, Disneylands attendance:
http://www.scottware.com.au/theme/feature/atend.htm

Why do I think this carries over to six flags? They have the park closed for during the weekdays the first 2 weeks of December. Lets pray they're not super gay and have rides not working.

[Aksannyi]

I'd like to go, but fuck, Cali is faaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaar. No job = no money, and like Chubbs, that's really close to finals.

I'd have to see what I can scrounge up, maybe if some other local friends want to go we could figure something out.

Loving the name, too, Failfest has an awesome ring to it.

[Antithesis]

*cry* I wanna go but its all the way in Cali D:

Skipping dinner event then, we can have final fairwell @ like 5 pm. Going to have gathering time at 9:00, since we'll be meeting each other/handing out shirts/sorting out tickets etc.

[Falisa]

I would really love to go, but I was given free tickets to fan fest. o.x

[Deader2818]

If Falisa isn't going, im out D:

lol j/k

[Lordwafik]

If I am reading the date right, that's 6th of December?

Temptation rising... will all depend on how our dollar is between now and then since booking a flight can be upwards of 3k.

edit : yep

Total price* for 1 adult $3052 (AUD)

[brisk]

Don't know why you guys don't just go to Knotts Berry Farm it shits all over MM jk. Magic Mountain is awesome. Wish I had money to go.
