Reading Ideas!
I feel like there should be a post here of ideas for reading 2012. I feel like there isn't hardly any information about it, and it's kind of disheartening. This is the 20th anniversary- it should be superb. If everyone puts their heads together, we can use each others' resources, ideas, and brains to make it awesome. I know I'm nothing more than a dumb little kid with an SVX, but we've gotta start somewhere.
Here's my idea: I think, if we get enough people, we should arrange all of our cars in the shape of a big "20" and take a snapshot of it from the top of the hotel.

Re: Reading Ideas!
The signup list for this event is pathetic and the lowest ever this close to any meet. I told the hotel this was a milestone event and they gave us 25 rooms minimum for each of the 3 nights.
Here is the list as if yesterday: Are you kidding me?... eight? 1. John Hoffman - "svxcess" 2. Earl Steele - "ensteele" 3. Elazar Mann - "radarwhiz" 4. Rob Sgarlata - "LetItSnow" 5. Tom Krynock - "svxfiles" 6. David Caron - "B 4 You" 7. Andrew Goldstein - "Jellybytes2" 8. Jake Schmidt - "JakeSVX" Here is the list of Reading attendees since the beginning. Anyone see a trend here? If things don't improve dramatically soon, I'll move Earl up to the No. 1 slot. I just can't watch a once-robust and thriving thing decline and end up on life support because nobody cared enough to step in and stop the bleeding. .

Re: Reading Ideas!
I'll bring you little SVX engine parts for you to clean while you're recovering in the hospital then.

Re: Reading Ideas!
Maybe if the mods here unstickied the Reading 12 stuff and didn't have the Sign up list burried in the 20th anniversary area it might just help. Just a thought.

Re: Reading Ideas!
Good point, Nate!
I've added new threads for "signup" and "rooms booked" lists under the Reading Forum. Took the current info from the 20th Anniversary forum. We will sticky them as well. Those attending (or planning to attend) sign up there from now on. .

Re: Reading Ideas!
B 4 You, I agree. The 20th anniversary should be something special, but with absolutely nothing being done to drum up interest...who's going to go?? I am frustrated with this whole meet, I pm'd svxcess a month ago about being available to help in any way on the event, be it brainstorming ideas, events, activities...but heard nothing from him.
That being said I tried starting my own mini meet earlier this month and got one interested member. I was grateful but still the more the merrier is generally the concensus at a meet. May be just a sign of the times that svx meets are getting harder and harder to organize on a larger scale :/ |

Re: Reading Ideas!
Don't be mad at me. It was confusing for anyone looking to sign up or finding the info for it, made worse by the fact that last years event was still sticky'd
