Hey look, there's a SURVEY that nobody's bothered answering yet.
  1. Do you have any specific objection to the accommodations listed (e.g. fear of water, hatred of non-metropolitan areas)?
    I have no strong objections. But I would much prefer a location that has some sort of easily accessable nightlife, such as clubs, bars, or other such venus.
  2. What are the current chances that you will be able to attend on, say, August 1st-August 7th?
    Pretty high. Like 85%
  3. What is your transportation situation? Would you have trouble getting to Olympia?
    I don't have much options due to the distance. I'll have to fly. That'll get me to Sea-Tac. From there, I don't know. It doesn't look like I can fly into Olympia.
  4. Which dates between early-July and mid-August are convenient, and which are best?
    My schedule is flexible, so anywhere in that range should be fine.
  5. Would you have trouble affording US$40/night (probably higher than the final price)?
    I can afford that.
  6. Do you have any dietary concerns that would be impacted by the somewhat limited local restaurant selection relative to a metropolitan area (e.g. veganism)?
    Not really.
  7. Could you bring a car, and how many people would this fit?
    No. It takes 2 1/2 days to drive up to Washington.
  8. Because of the centralised payment, it would have to be paid in cash, preferably upfront (I'm not rich, so I can't carry it myself). Would this be a problem in any way?
    That would not be a problem. Although an alternative could be for people to pay by mailing checks in advance to the person who'll put in the payment.
  9. Any other comments/questions/concerns?
    You made a comment about also renting a minivan for transportation. I think that would be awesome. In fact I was kind of looking at that earlier. But renting a minivan for a week would be expensive, and wouldn't fit everybody. But still it'd be cool and I wouldn't mind driving (unless we're going out to drink).
