(

(Preview)
I just registered on line. A heads up for those that need to register, you need to select your "tent mate" for the night. If you are travelling with someone, you're set. If you are like me (going solo) you will be assigned a random partner.

Database Issue - Vegetarian
(Preview)
Any other veggies notice the database error using the online sign up? When you select a vegetarian meal on the first page, your selection is not carried forward to your profile. It did the same thing for my wife. I've reported the error, but I figure they just think that I misclicked.
