Reply To: special Sea Monkey stuff to take?
Last year, the fake mustaches were provided for people who didn’t bring their own (real/fake), I imagine things may be similar this year, but bring one just in case (yours might be cooler)
Fezes are encouraged, but not required, it was only me and Wheaton last year…so it’s certainly not a tradition, but we hope to make it one.
Fancy Pants are required for entrance into the Fancy Pants Parade and subsequent judging, there were only about 20 contestants last year, so not required, and if you are in the parade, it’s harder to watch it.
A lot of people are making up business cards to hand to people they befriend over the 7 days we are lost at sea. I advise: your name, forum screen name, twitter handle, email address, and something nerdy for people to remember you by. You can probably get by with 100 or 200 cards (sadly there just isn’t time to befriend all 400ish of us…).
I may or may not need to remind you to bring a bunch of nerdy t-shirts (look at ThinkGeek if you need some inspiration). It will help identify you as one of us during the boarding process (before we get our spiffy JCCCII badges) or if you forget said badge, or just as a conversation starter (cool shirt, where’d you get it? I like <topic of shirt> too, let’s go watch David Rees play blackjack. Etc…)
