All set for PixelMania 2010... (11/28 to 12/7) (and 2/25 to 3/3)

I'll plead ignorant to what the WDW Today is...as I'm really not part of any other Disney groups. ; So I don't know how all-encompassing their events are during the days and how it would impact Pixelmania. ; However, just a curious question: ; Since before Pixelmania, TMIP had 2 years at Mousefest, where lots of other groups were doing events/walks/meets, would it really be that hard to work out schedules with the other groups in a way that works well for all? ; And maybe with a little overlap here and there, like at Mousefest?

Just wondering. ; I'd only be going to TMIP events myself. ; Even when it was part of Mousefest, I never even registered for Mousefest...I was there only for TMIP. ; So I have little experience in trying to hit different gatherings from different groups in the same weekend.

 

WDW Today is a podcast, found at www.wdwtoday.com. ; They have a fairly large following and, like most other Mousefest veterans, wanted to continue the fun of a December gathering. ; Their meet schedule (reunion.wdwtoday.com) was similar to that of Pixelmania - just a few meets every day with plenty of time between them. ; But those gaps were quickly filled with either impromptu meets or, in my case, meets organized by other groups.

Just for fun, I dug out my Mousefest schedule from 2008. ; There frequently were two or three simultaneous meets. ; At times it was very difficult to pick which one to attend.

We all saw how dynamic the Pixelmania schedule became. ; Can you imaging trying to keep up with that as well as attend other meets? ; I don't think I would have to discipline to do it.

That's one advantage to not sharing a room.

 

Makes sense...glad for the explanation. ; My version of Mousefest was pretty much the same as Pixelmania - I was soloing, had my own place, ran my own relaxed schedule, and whenever TMIP had something going on, I showed up. ; Afterwards, if nothing else was organized, I was on my own to relax and enjoy again. ; So it never seemed any different to me!

However, in hindsight, I do remember Tim getting a certain 'glazed' look by day 2, and by day 3 looking not unlike a zombie...so I guess the Mousefest schedule ran him a bit ragged! ; Pixelmania, I think Tim only reached the glazed look...I never saw full zombie.

 

It's a paramedic thing.

 

Hey I have no shame for passing out like that. ; I can do that anytime and anywhere. ; It is part of the job, (EMS = Earn Money Sleeping! ) ; As for a second coming of Pixelmania! ; I am all for it, and I will pass out again, BUT that also allowed me to carry through the rest of the trip. ; Bring it on! ; I'm ready for Round 2! ; How about you Tim?
