    Getting close, I can hear the ghosts of Polkfests past.... Looking forward to this one!
    So, are you willing to put forth a little effort or are you happy sitting in your skeptical poo pile?

    According to who has followed directions *cough*not Sal*cough* there are 5 confirmed and a few who asked if they could come (like an invite to a club wide event doesn't express enough permission) and a few who are "on the fence".

    I know of at least 4 more who have spoken to me off the forums for other things and said they intended to be there. So right now, like 10 people confirmed coming. Maybe more if spouses will be in tow. I'll start the list posts later on when I have a bit more time to dig through.

    Not looking great. I think you should keep your options open, post a hard RSVP date (maybe a month out), and make a decision when that date expires.

    There are a few who have told me they are coming privately on places not-Club Polk.

    Then again, that's what I want people to say if they are coming in the other thread so I have everything in one place to get an accurate head count.

    Sal, you're the only one in all of this that has been incapable of following directions. At this point, I'm not sure if you are serious or mocking me.

    I made a simple request so that I could keep all the names in one spot so it's easier for me. I don't need a raft of BS over it. I'm just asking people who are intending to come to just take 5 seconds out and help me out so that we can make sure we ALL have a good time and nobody has to panic scramble to compensate for more people than we were expecting.

    First post here I asked for it:

    http://forum.polkaudio.com/discussion/163618/polkfest-2014

    First post in this thread as well:

    http://forum.polkaudio.com/discussion/163463/polkfest-2014

    It was also linked a few times in this thread.

    I'm not making an "evite". The forum is here, the Polkfest is for the forum. It's not hard to just post up and say you're coming.

    I already have you on the list anyway.

    Less than two weeks away people.
    A shame that Polk decided to change things up here two months out, hope that doesn't deter folks from joining in...
    So, are you willing to put forth a little effort or are you happy sitting in your skeptical poo pile?

    maybe he was in a Q-induced coma? LOL

    Wave some of that pig, brisket, or filet under his nose and he'll come around just fine.

    The pig is gone.

    So's Lou. His wife called and beckoned him to go apple picking. So he just grabbed his **** and ran.

    That was good pig.

    There's lots of stuff left.

    I'm gonna have leftovers for a month.
