It's our second year, and our goal hasn't changed, we like to gather with friends around tables to practice our hobby. Think of tables with people/friends you'd like to play. As simple as that. Bring your friends, your games, try to match-up with people here in this forum or simply show at the Con you'll surely find someone to play with. Play whatever you want.
Room rate for the Convention is 70$. You have to mention Stack Academie. It includes continental breakfast, and it's pretty descent, but it doesn't include parking. Parking is 13$ a day. You can now reserve a room for . It includes a nice continental breakfast.
For those coming by plane (and then the shuttle) and bus, the hotel is walking distance from the Central bus terminal.

Comment by Marc Guenette on February 2, 2012 at 6:16pm Lawrence, maybe one day. I would sure try to go to Hong Kong at some point. Been to Chongqing and Beijing.
Comment by Lawrence Hung on February 2, 2012 at 2:06am Unfortunately, it would be too costly for me. Have a great time and post many photos here for sharing those who can't attend like me. :)
