Since the con is getting closer and all indications are that I'll be able to attend this year, I'm starting to think more seriously about getting some rooming arrangements set up, as well as deciding whether to drive myself or seek other means of transportation.
Is there anyone here with a room reserved that has room for another? Yes, I know I can check the room share board or the LJ community, but I thought I'd ask here first to improve the chances of getting set up with someone I already know, at least online. _________________ mwalimu

I've reserved a room at the Holiday Inn Select Memphis Airport for MFM 2009 and am now looking for others to share the room and split costs. The room costs about $116 per night with taxes, and I'm hoping to share the room with 3 others to split the cost 4 ways. If successful it will be $29 per person per night.
Reserved for Thurs. Sept 3 through Mon. Sept. 7 but we can discuss if you need a room for only some of those nights
Non-smoking
Fursuits okay
Any gender or orientation okay
Everyone is expected to exercise common courtesy and apply the 6/2/1 rule
Registered MFM attendees only (no "ghosts")
For now I'm only posting this in a couple of places where I'm more likely to get hooked up with people I'm at least somewhat acquainted with (even if only online) before I post it to more general room share boards. _________________ mwalimu

Looking better and better for me and foxy to be at MFM!
And we have been confermed to host a live broadcast on KWKAT from the con!
*points to his other thread on this topic*
http://www.planetfurry.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=10408
So, for the many of our friends who cant be there, that is at least some small comfort.
Hope to see many of you there though!

-Posted on the MFM LJ-
The KWKAT Internet Radio Broadcast Party now has a fan!
A two hour music/dance party in Memphis over Labor Day weekend is likely to get hot! I recently went and bought a 20in Lasko wind machine that can put out a good amount of air. So if you are a fursuiter and was unsure about joining us Saturday night, do not fear, the fan is your friend! All those who get hot easily are welcome to become fans of the fan!
While some others think they should be able to add a hundred rules beyond the MFM con rules, we only have one rule; glow sticks are welcome but should be on you, please do not flail the sticks around on strings, the room has a low ceiling and others shouldn't have to worry about getting hit.
Even if you don't want to dance you are welcome to just come and enjoy the music.
If you can't attend MFM, the show will be broadcasted as long as there is internet connectivity http://kwkat.pandakc.com:9000/ (for broadband users) or http://kwkat.pandakc.com:8000/ (for dial-up users)
Saturday night, 10pm to midnight in confrence room 8 internet radio dance party, lots of music to move your tail to! Be there!!
Oh yeah, we'll also be handing out mardi gras beads! The only thing you have to do to get them is show up (please no sharing of your naughty bits! ) _________________ http://www.bukisa.com/people/AmberBarnes check it out!

Girls are like phones. We love to be held, talked too but if you press the wrong button you'll be disconnected! |

Hehe, myself, IronTiger, PrincessB, and my mate Journye will be the MCs of sorts, with me running my DJ mixing board. This has an interesting advantage, that if you want to bring an MP3 player, with a song or two, that you want played at the dance, we can probably fit ya in. We will already be drawing from a HUGE repository of music, but if you request something we dont have, and you have it, we will be able to pipe it through.
Ohh, and I will be friendly to dialup users on the dialup channel, only 32kbps for that low-quality stream. And I'll be friendly to the slower DSL users on the broadband, by just running 64kbps, both mono. =^.^=
Furthermore, the show's stream will be recorded!! So, if the craptastic internet connectivity at the con hotel proves to be a problem, it will be saved for later taped-delay broadcasting!

Heyz! Leonato, Journye, IronTiger and myself are doing a test airing right now to be sure all equipment is ready for MFM how.
Tune in now to catch some good music and don't forget to tune in for the MFM airing Saturday night! _________________ http://www.bukisa.com/people/AmberBarnes check it out!

The test airing had its kinks... but we got the kink out (Not to worry, there is still plenty left for the MFM show ) Had some grounding noise issues that we corrected, some music player issues that we corrected, all stuffs to get worked out, and all in all, I am happy with how it turned out. Basically the rig boils down to three laptops, (well, two netbooks and a laptop), and a DJ board.
So be sure not to miss the broadcast... That's Saturday the 5th of Sept. from 10PM Central, to midnight

By the way, for those planning to attend MFM, I can of course be found in registration room at the Tiger Haven Charity Auction Donation Acceptance table. Journye will be there with me. I hope that everyone stops by and visits us. If you have a donation, great, be sure to bring it before 2pm on Saturday. If you don't have a donation, still come see us and also visit the auction in A/B ballroom Saturday afternoon 3-6pm you might find something you can't live without! _________________ http://www.bukisa.com/people/AmberBarnes check it out!

So, now that it is VERY close, who is definitely going to MFM this year?
ROLL CALL!
IronTiger and I will be there (we will be staying in a different motel this year -much cheaper- so I will be unable to host a room party this year like I have most years past) _________________ http://www.bukisa.com/people/AmberBarnes check it out!
