Waitlist night became available for wednesday night at the JW now. Now I can quit checking everyday and keep my faith in the waitlist. Hopefully a JW becomes available for you.

I figured this might help people hook up some alternate, late night, or early groups. Let people know where you are staying and when you're coming into/leaving town!
Sheraton Keystone Crossing (not the Downtown Sheraton)
Arriving August 3rd, checking out August 8th.
I'm actually road tripping from Dallas to Indianapolis, so I might arrive a day early, since I gave myself an extra day to possibly stop in Memphis. Haven't decided yet if I'm going to drive the entire way through or stop (it's a 12-13 hours drive).

We also come from Dallas, and I promise you'll enjoy the trip more if you don't drive straight through, last year we actually took three days (stopping in Nashville and Louisville and detouring into Cincinnati for an hour or two), and it was a generally more enjoyable trip.

First timer here, and we're driving in from Ontario. Should be here by Wednesday afternoon and we're staying at the Clarion on the Waterfront Parkway. Would love to rideshare Thursday-Sunday to/from the ICC. I'm volunteering too and planning to be at the ICC at 9am all 4 days.

My wife and I are staying at the Hampton Inn and Suites on Ameriplex by the Airport. I would LOVE to meet up for some late night gaming with anyone staying there or nearby. I am up for most anything, as even if I've never played before, I am always up for something new.

Hey all, first post here. I'm volunteering, but not for GenCon. I'm with Extra Life and we're partnered up with eBash again this year. I got stuck with a room at the Days Inn out by the Airport, and I'm always up for some late night gaming.

Staying at the Hyatt Regency Indianapolis Wednesday to Sunday, Driving up from Irmo (Columbia) South Carolina. Not looking forward to that 9 hour drive but it is better than the ones to Milwaukee. This is somewhere between 15 and 20 Gen Cons for me, lost count and skipped years.
