    Monday Update: Two more tickets!! They are trickling in... but we will take any we can get! Tom's Furball over the Pacific Event (#1140) is one seat away from being sold out. Neil's Event Taranto (#1146) is also slowly working its way to a full table! More later...

    Saturday morning update: Looks like someone returned three tickets on two different events, so our "Sold Seats" numbers and percentage have declined ever so slightly. Hopefully ticket sales will pick up again this weekend... but over all we are doing great with pre-sales!

    Monday Morning Update: A few seats shuffled from one event to another... and two more sold, leaving us with one more SOLD OUT event (#1134 - Aerodrome vs. Aerodrome )!!

    That is a total of FIVE sold out events and quite a few more on the very edge with only one or two seats left.

    It's about time Crownhart pulled his weight! He probably bought the last ticket!

    Thursday Evening Update: Unless we get a last minute surge with only a week and five days to go, I would say we have peaked out on presales. Overall though, I am extremely pleased with 62% of our seats being filled before the Con even starts!

    Tuesday Evening Report: after losing three seats yesterday, we sold nine tickets today, putting us firmly at the 65% mark. With online sales being open thru June 1st, we might just make that 70% mark after all!

    The person on the right is The Cowman. On the left, Black Sheep One. The Cowman is explaining to Black Sheep One not to count the chickens before they hatch.

    70 % WE HIT MY GOAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Well done to all the unsung hero's working tirelessly behind the scenes. You have outdone yourselves. Only next year you need to hit 71%. Great job. First rounds on me. Drinks not bullets.

    Where is the streaming video feed of Origins and the pictures posted as they happen? Are you guys too busy playing to allow us not present to live vicariously through you?

    Yes, where is the live video of the action? At least the AAR debriefings with the pilots tales of glory and woe...

    Don't worry about it. When all the dust settles and Origins is over after you've enjoyed it all, then if you can fill us in a little. I'm sure there will be plenty of reports later.

    Just wait till you see the actual fill rates from our events We are too busy to eat and sleep most times. Although I did veer off early and get about 9 hours last night... probably the most sleep I have ever gotten at one time at an Origins in my 19 years attending!
