Please respond first: Where would you like a GMATClub 2007 get together to take place? Then read on: Please if you answer the poll, reply to the message stating that you are interested and if you'd be joining x1 (alone), x2 (with "significant other"), x3+ (with family) ************* Ok, so we have finally gathered momentum to organize a get together. Praetorian has even offered a sponsorship of upto 1500 bucks for collective spending during the event (thanks Praet and GMATClub). But now we need to pick up the place and time for the meeting and get an idea of how many we may be (notice "may" as in initial estimation of people and not in "we'll bill you and you won't be able to get a refund"). I'll post two different polls: this is one is to vote for the city and have an initial count of possible attendants (although Chicago seems ahead so far, I'd like to give us all some opportunity to choose). There'll be another poll to choose the date. The shortlist I've prepared is based on: - my perception of the schools were most G'clubbers will end up and the regions which would be convenient based on their current residence, - interesting cities in the area (I know, this is subjective, but hey! so is life!) - trying to reduce the options to a manageable amount. I'll also cluster some cities by region to reduce options and we'll be able to fine tune these once we decide on the region.

it was a while, and no one give anymore comments, so I guess it's time for us to put 2 into the finale (just like American Idol :-D

)

I'm feeling so poor it hurts.

Around June 13 I will already be in Chicago, so that would be my vote for then. Rhyme and I are getting together anyway.

Until July 24 I am in Ithaca, so I say Northeast.

After then I'm in NC, so then I say mid-atlantic.

And I think the world should revolve around me.

irrespective of the Praet's wallet

:oops:

oops! Didn't mean it that way Praet! More that, given the number of people in the area, your generous offer of cash shouldn't really be a necessity to get a meet-up arranged.

I have to go w/ the Northeast because that's where I live.

I suppose we could always do two separate events, one Northeast and one Chicago. Just an idea, don't mean to add confusion to the thread.

Bump... So what's the final verdict on this? I tried to organize a similiar gig last spring but it never gathered much momentum. Praet, just throw the gauntlet now and those who can't attend will just have to improvise.

Do we need to appoint a "decider"? Or have one last formal vote?

I am sorry aaudetat. I really wish we could all meet. On the other hand, this is only a proposed date. If we do not get a good response, we will try a different date.
