Hi Matt


I will be bring one or 2 of my Pixel Mini trees which I hope will include working Star on top, something that did not get finished for last years show.


But more importantly I have requested the misses get her cooking shoes on and will provide some tasty cake or sweet items to keep us full over the weekend.


Looking forward to the catch up and a great weekend.

Excellent, the cooking will be greatly appreciated and the pixels mini trees, yeah they will look nice next to my megatree. hmmmm, hope you dont expect to leave with them.
 
Great news everyone, LOR are onboard now and have provided a very generous prize for our door prize.

We also have word that a local meat distribution facility may be assisting us with the provision of hearty meat goodness for the BBQ... mmmm mmmm mmmmmm.
 
Well, its full steam ahead.

I have been in contact with a number of people and things seem to be coming together well.

Ryan has completed the graphics for the mini so from the presenters, if you need a copy, please let me know and I will share a link to them. For consistency, if you are presenting using powerpoint, could you use these as your background. (adski, superman, AAH)

As for the food. Looks like we may be onto a winner thanks to jb09 and his contacts.
I will source some eggs, the bread and condiments for the BBQ and sandwiches.
Karob is bringing some sustenance thanks to the missus. Might have to get my misses involved in this also.

I will bring the disruptive kids for the first part of Saturday. Fear not though, I will have them chained up the the wall heater under the stairs so we should only hear the occasional muffled yelp when they pass out and lean against the hot blades.

I will abuse AAH upon his arrival in Adelaide to assist in setup on Friday. Might get the mega tree up and working for the show and tell, because really, we want something big to play with. :p

When I go to pick Steve up from the airport (he better arrive sober) I will grab anything else I need to at that stage.

Can I ask that those who have offered to bring display items, that you remember those, I think we have a few mini pixel trees, singing trees, 3d cuplight setup.

Can I ask if someone has a variable volt power supply / transformer that you bring that, will make it easy for one of the elements coming. (need 31 volts)

Final preparatory stages occurring now. I feel extremely under prepared but am sure with the 17 or more of us that will be in attendance, it will be a good couple of days.

As for the address:

51 Osprey Parade, Hewett.


Dont forget your laptops and where possible, your trial versions of software. I will setup some links for other software and hand those out when you arrive.

As a wrap up, there is currently over $1000 in door prizes. So it pays to be there. (will be drawn on Sunday, you have to be in attendance on one of the days (and have paid your $5 to be eligible))

See you all then.

8:30am Saturday 24 May
 
Bugger. I don't have trial versions. Only have full versions of LOR and LSP. I will have xlight/nc, da_dmx, da_e131, papagayo and who knows what else on the lappy.
 
I also have vixen 2.5, vixen 3, lights up, mplab (for updating firmwares), Excel for showing off/editing channel lists, da_start and probably a whole bunch more blinky software.
 
No guaranties i'll get off the plane sober there is some sort of time travel involved as I seem to nearly get there before I take off, Butt getting home takes a lot longer.

I will be bringing some fun little controllers for stand alone use and my 2811 strip has a resistor that needs repair if anyone wants to have a look at that
.
 
Does your Butt travel separately with you on the return trip or does it go by itself?
