If so, any chance there would be a no (potato) chips option? I don't gamble, but loved to walk around last year and meet people.Thanks,ChadTue, 23 Aug 2011 14:30:43 GMT Chad Crawfordhttp://www.sqlservercentral.com/Forums/Topic1076404-83-1.aspx[quote][b]Steve Jones - SSC Editor (8/23/2011)[/b][hr]It looks like we can rent a room for a party on Tuesday night. We will likely sell tickets for a lower cost for everyone and subsidize the party from Red Gate. I am thinking that we will probably sell them at about $20.[/quote]That sounds like an excellent plan.Tue, 23 Aug 2011 14:25:12 GMTGilaMonsterhttp://www.sqlservercentral.com/Forums/Topic1076404-83-1.aspxWe would love to see you at our networking dinner on Monday.It looks like we can rent a room for a party on Tuesday night.

As other companies have started to look for similar deals, and do their own referrals, the cost structure has changed quite a bit for SQLServerCentral.I am also focusing more on SQL Connections, since we sponsor a track there.Tue, 15 Mar 2011 08:42:14 GMTSteve Jones - SSC Editorhttp://www.sqlservercentral.com/Forums/Topic1076404-83-1.aspx[quote][b]Steve Jones - SSC Editor (3/15/2011)[/b][hr]We do not have a code or a deal with PASS this year.The early bird rates have typically never included a discount because they are always so heavily discounted.Usually chapter leaders have a discount code, but I doubt there will be one before the early bird rates expire.[/quote]Why no deal this year?Tue, 15 Mar 2011 08:26:37 GMTNinja's_RGR'ushttp://www.sqlservercentral.com/Forums/Topic1076404-83-1.aspxWe do not have a code or a deal with PASS this year.The early bird rates have typically never included a discount because they are always so heavily discounted.Usually chapter leaders have a discount code, but I doubt there will be one before the early bird rates expire.Tue, 15 Mar 2011 08:19:20 GMTSteve Jones - SSC Editorhttp://www.sqlservercentral.com/Forums/Topic1076404-83-1.aspxJust stay on SSC, and you'll be made aware of the openings....Mon, 14 Mar 2011 23:20:47 GMTHenrico Bekkerhttp://www.sqlservercentral.com/Forums/Topic1076404-83-1.aspxTo expand on the Clayton's question, what are the advantages registering for the Summit via SSC rather than directly through PASS?
