In my previous diary about this event, I wrote
SEATING IS LIMITED, so RSVPs are first come, first served!
You've all responded enthusiastically to this invitation! So enthusiastically, in fact, that despite some machinations on my part, we're now over capacity. Please come below for the details.
Don't get me wrong, I'm delighted (and completely unsurprised) that everyone wants to meet Scottie. But sadly it looks like one or two of you may not be able to.
I expanded our reservation twice, but the maximum number I was able to reserve for is 12. Including those of you who listed yourselves as strong "maybees", we are now over that number.
So, here's the new list. People who listed themselves as sure RSVPs are on the RSVP list, in first-come, first-served order. People who listed themselves as "maybees" are on the Maybees list in the same order. Current Maybees can change their status to RSVP, first-come, first-served, and will be given preference over any completely new RSVPs, who will be wait-listed.
RSVPs:
1.Scottie Thomaston
2.sidnora
3.followyourbliss
4.mattc129
5.Design the Future
6.Mangala
7.Tool
8. Mets102
9. cohenzee
Maybees:
10.Its the Supreme Court Stupid
11.Rosalie907
12.MBNYC
As you can see, we have more potential guests than we have seats. I feel terrible about this, since I hate to disappoint anyone who wants to meet other Kossacks, but if you get cut, remember there will be another meetup, probably with unlimited seating, pretty soon!
If any of you find out you can't make it, please get in touch with me, either through email, kosmail or in the comments of this diary, so someone else will be able to use your seat.
I also had to move the time of the reservation slightly, to 6:45 pm (I doubt that this will be a problem, and I suspect that some of you will be pleased).
