I know its a smidge early, but I am wondering are people already making their plans to come to Atlanta? Right now I'm thinking of trying to see if people would like to split the costs of accommodations or not.

Feel free to PM me or msg here. Thanks!

No. Flight prices and time necessitated an early-ish Sunday exit from DC.

At least it's not as bad as qualifying for Day Two of Worlds and having to miss it! :o

The reason I am asking is that there is an airbnb a few blocks away that if several people would share the cost would be cheaper than a hotel, we would be more comfortable, and I think it would be a great idea.

Definitely doing an airbnb (an entire house) with 5 beds that is a 10 minute walk from the shop. Would definitely be cheaper than a hotel and more comfortable so if anyone is interested in sharing the cost please get in touch with me. It would also give us a chance to chat & play if you are planning on being there for the entire event. I'll be renting it from Thursday till Sunday.
