Hi all!
I am counting down the days to this fantastic event! The space is set and all we need are the smiling faces of the attendees for a great breakfast before the big show.
The response for this meetup has been impressive! So much that we have reach capacity but with Conan lotteries and last minutes updates I anticipate a few changes which lead to opportunities for additional attendees at specific timeslots.
I have opened the sheet for changes in arrival time. For the waitlist please PM me and I will track that offline. As I find time I will reach out to the interested parties.
Please note: The waitlist will not guarantee entry but I will make every effort to accommodate as many attendees as possible. I will contact each person on the waitlist I am able to accommodate to confirm.

I guess starting February 1, I'll be checking this site every day to make sure I don't miss out on RSVPs!
-
Thanks for putting in the work and organizing this again. Dr Who!
And since I know people will ask, I will probably be opening up RSVPs for the Sunday Night Dinner at about the same time.

I may actually come out of hiding and attend this year if I can get away with it! I'm usually uber anti-social (I love people, I'm just a weird introvert when I'm not being a teacher) but after spending last Con getting to know some great folks in the line-up group I may be ready to jump in and talk to even more strangers. It would admittedly be nice to put faces to names after all these years :D
Thanks for organizing this endeavor!
-
whoohoo! I always enjoy this breakfast meet up! Thank you so much for your work on this every year [member=1060]DRWHO42[/member] !!
-
Oh! I'm going to put this in my calendar to remind me to check soon! I always miss the RSVPs period for this, and would like to actually try and go this year.
Luckily, I've already requested Tuesday-Monday off from work (I did so at the end of December.) So I could definitely pop downtown to go, for once.
-
Me too DRWHO42! I just barely made it in last year with help from a friend. So I've turned on notifications for the 2018 breakfast.

Early warning. I will be posting the link to the signup sheet this month. Possibly next weekend. I will give a heads up a day or two beforehand.

Thanks for setting this up! I've never been to this breakfast, and I have to miss the Sunday Swag dinner this year, so it'll be nice to have another FOCC event to go to!

Done! Several of us from Buying Group #2 will be there! :)

Update - RSVPs are closed for the time being due to capacity.

If we moved the meet up to Vegas, that would solve the capacity issue. :)
Sorry, sorry, had to make that joke. :)

There will be a waitlist. Once Conan announces it changes plans for a number of attendees. Stay tuned for June.

I missed the sign up in a big way. ??? ??? I'm definitely interested in the Waitlist. :)

I will open the waitlist in June and it will probably remain open until I know the Conan ticket logistics as it will shift capacity demands.
In the meantime please PM me and I will Mark you down.

Bump. Update to the first post regarding the waitlist and Conan.
To sum it up. I am in a holding pattern until I know for certain the Wednesday logistics for Conan.

Okay all,
Now Conan tix are sorted out for Wednesday I will open up for changes and waitlist in 24 hours.
This should allow everyone time to look over their plans and recalibrate.
I would like to make this a fun event for all and allow as many people in through the time we have.
Stay tuned!
-
New update!
RSVP sheet is open for time adjustments.
-
I'm hoping I can get off the waitlist since no luck with Conan

Turns out it would have just been 2 of us since the rest are driving in from LA later on Wednesday, BUT then we got invited to be +2s for Conan!!! So very sorry to miss this meet up, it is such a great start to SDCC! Hope to see everyone at the Tuesday meet up and the Sunday dinner :)

PM to me for the waitlist please.

Do I just remove myself if we can't make it? I thought we'd be in on time, but it turns out we won't. At least someone will get off the wait list.

I am bad with faces and names so I can relate to this.
This meetup is a great opportunity to stretch a little and make friends. Like Batman said to the Flash in JL - save one and then move to the next.
All it takes is one small hello and ‘how are you’ to start a conversation.

Unfortunately, I have to bow out, unexpected issue with timing ;; That opens up the 3 slots I originally put in months ago. Hopefully it'll help someone on the waitlist at least!

[member=1060]DRWHO42[/member] I signed up for Hall H shifts Wednesday morning from 6am-9am, can I still attend the breakfast at 9am? I just became aware of the five-hour rule.
-
My group received conan spots for wed so you can go ahead and give my spots to someone on waitlist. Looking forward to seeing everyone on Sunday though.

This is another line where you can walk through looking for FoCC lanyards (besides Fundays). We also won Wednesday Conan last minute, so we will be there instead of the Breakfast as well.

Thanks for letting me know. I will not be at the Sunday meetup but hopefully I will see you during the con.
-
Just a quick reminder on times for the event. We are there from 7am to 10am. If you are luckily blessed with Conan tickets or arriving into town you can still stop by up to 10am.
-
[member=1060]DRWHO42[/member] - DH and I will not be able to make it. I asked earlier if I just needed to remove myself from the list, but it got lost in the shuffle. We are not getting in as early as I hoped. Maybe next year. :(
-
Just to get a more positive vibe going, I will first say that I am happy for my friends who were able to get into Conan, and second, I want to report that my peeps and I WILL be at your awesome breakfast event where I’ve met new friends every year including you DRWHO42.
