Can someone official confirm that TAM 9 is definitely going to take place? I see that some people have already booked rooms at the Southpoint, but I don't see a schedule anywhere. I'm trying to decide how long to stay and would like to make flight reservations before the (probably imminent) price hike, but I need more information. Thanks.
 
I heard that they're changing the name from TAM to TCS Fest. Same time and place. So technically TAM 9 isn't happening, but the far superior TCS Fest is.
 
Um, thanks, I think.

Can anyone else confirm that TAM's happening? No schedule. No official postings. I'm not convinced.
 
I'm not official.
I'm fairly certain that TAM9 will happen. I've book my flights and reserved my room. The only additional evidence I have is that a few months ago I offered to coordinate the volunteers at TAM9 and my offer was accepted by D.J. . There's still four months to go, so I wouldn't worry yet. Even NECSS, which is in April, doesn't have a speaker-by-speaker schedule on its web site yet.
 
No need to be rude. I just don't want to buy 2 tix for nothing. Had heard a rumor that there'd be no meeting this year.
 
Don't know about any rumors, but registration opened and speakers were announced in late February for TAM8. So if that's any indication we should hear more news soon.
 
Thanks everyone. I did see the dates. Didn't realize that the schedule wasn't posted until the end of Feb. last year. I'll try to be patient! :)

At this point there are enough of The Usual Suspects signed up with flights and hotel rooms, we could just all show up and still have a good time, even with no talks at all.

And if you want talks, we could turn it into the biggest SkeptiCamp ever!

How do you "sorta" book a room?

It's easy!!

I just sorta called them up, one day, and sorta told 'em I was going to stay there for a bunch of nights, and they sorta sent a confirmation, of some sort, I think.


Actually, someone else sorta booked the room before me, I think. And, I kinda said I'll join 'em, I guess. But, then I sorta had to call 'em up, myself, to remind them to put two separate beds in there, instead of one, 'cause the one thing I know for certain is that I ain't gonna sleep in the same bed as another guy. Everything else is all vague and mysterious, in some way.

No need to go overboard..... Just gagging should do it. Hokulele said she booked room for us already. I'm waiting to hear what Post-Tam activities are available so I can decide when to leave for home.

Us? I was supposed to have booked a room for two people? I figured you would sleep in the chair in front of The Claw.
