OFFICIAL ANNOUNCMENT: WFO-6!

[FJR_pig]

I guess that's an impolite way of saying "No, we don't know yet." <_< It has been quite a while since the initial post, and although I didn't expect news until after the first of the year, you can't blame a guy for wondering. Or for asking.

Impolite? Not really.

Impolite would have been me saying, "Read the ******* first post again."

Geez dude, that reply did sound a bit harsh.

Okay, here's a more polite response:

As of yet, there is no news about the hotel rooms or prices. We are still in negotiations with the hotel and, as stated in the original post, you will be notified via this website.

We are sorry for any inconvenience to you while we continue to finalize arrangements and plan activities for this event.

Kim Jong Il said it best:

******* it, how many times do I have to tell you?

You don't use the WMDs until you see the signal. I have worked ten years on this pran. It is a very precise and a compricated pran. I am sick of you terrorists ******* it up. Now, take the weapons where I told you and wait for the ******* signal this time. Goodbye.

Why is everyone so ******* stupid?

Kim Jong Il is my personal hero.

Gotta love YouTube. Here's the reference, in all its original glory. Seek to 3 minutes if you've got no time, else, it's pretty much a Kim Jong Il "Best Of" from Team America: ****!

Why is everyone so ******* stupid?

I have come to the realization that I'm at least moderately stupid to continue asking myself that question.

OK, New Years Resolution #1:

No more forum reading while coffee/coke/Jack/water/is being consumed.

(And if someone does a 'fixed it for you', I will keel you. Dead. :****: )

As much as I enjoy the great exchange of info, FJR related or not, and the sometimes really funny banter, I fail to see the need to poke a guy in the eye for asking a question that may have been asked and answered 9 ******* pages back. May not look rude to some but where I grew up, some of that **** got you a slap in mouth.

While it may not be obvious to everyone else, the volunteers and organizers of the event are just as anxious as everyone who is planning to attend. We also have lives to live, vacations to plan, money to save and reservations to make. We are not privately receiving any more information than the general forum but understand, as has happened at every other WFO and every other ??? FJR Owners meet, that there is simply no way to speed the process. Its more like buying a house with offers and counter-offers by the negotiator for the group then it is for calling up and reserving a block of rooms on a visa or mastercard.

That being said, and I hope understood, I am in no way trying to impune or denigrate anyones character or failure to comprehend the amount of real energy being expended by the chosen representative. Believe me, we are all anxious but have learned to wait patiently (okay, impatiently!) until the hotel/motel has finally offered a negotiated contract and that has been signed. Those who have not witnessed/been involved this process before may not know that there have been times when the rooms were not actually offered as available until 4 or 5 months before the event.

I'm sure the admins of this site expect that whoever reads this particular thread would have at least read the first page and they reacted as if that was a fact.

Usually (historically), once the process is finalized, there will be a separate thread notifying the forum visitors of the rooms and rates and others normally post any optional hotels they have found. Then begins frenzy of riders "buddying up" for room sharing. All one has to do is look at the threads about the former WFOs, SWFOs, CFOs or EFOs to see what has been done before.

And let's not be doin' any threatening about slappin' in the mouth lest we get the sheriff P.O.'d.

Inquiring minds want to know!

I will say one thing (well maybe) and that is it. (maybe) :lol:

Is it possible to update the first post in this thread to show current state of things. Then update it as things are known or change.

I know myself am not going to wade through 11 pages of stuff to find the needle ( or answer) that I am looking for.

The following is just an opinon and not a fact.

That's the point. It is correct.

When the major points change.....it will change or a new thread will be created.

There are minor supplimentary points that one can read if they want to wade through things.

O.K. then, could you provide an automatic update on every fourth post with the latest information for those of us, say, attention-span-challenged.
Thanks. You're aces, kid!

As soon as I get back from Minnihaha (I have to go keel someone), this thread should be dead and put into the crapper. We can replace it with a new, more informative one.

Hang tight, peeps.
