Register early, as the best way for us to sign up great presenters is to show that we have a great audience!

It's official: Warpstock 2011 was a great success.

Throughout the course of the weekend, I kept hearing about how good the food was, how comfortable the accommodations were, how fantastic dinner at The Pit was on Saturday, and of course (over and over), how informative and well done the presentations were. The Warpstock Board is eternally grateful to all who participated and worked so hard to make this year's event happen.

A special thanks to our Meeting Coordinator, Rima Bose of Meeting Smart, for her tireless efforts at finding us the venue, presenting us with options for the social outing, for arranging transportation for Saturday night, and for negotiating such excellent contracts for us.

Just in time for your trip, we've got some travel tips for you on the event travel page. There is information on the hotel shuttle to and from the airport, and a link to the hotel's directions page for those of you who will be driving and need directions.

Due to technical difficulties, some folks may have been unable to access the registration page last evening. We sincerely apologize for this frustration, and while we were able to rectify the problem within a reasonable period of time, we recognize that this may have caused some would-be attendees to miss out on the original deadline for the 10% early registration discount.

As a result, we have extended the 10% early registration discount another 24 hours, through 11:59pm EDT tonight. Register today and SAVE!

As we told you in our earlier release, the 10% early registration discount for Warpstock 2011 ends at midnight on July 16. That leaves just two more days before this offer expires. If you're planning to come to Warpstock, now is the time to register.

Don't delay. Register now!

Due to overwhelming demand, the Warpstock Board and the Event Team have reviewed the original pricing and package offerings for this year's event, and have been able to not only lower the cost for attendees wishing to double up rooms (Package B), but have also made available a low-cost guest option (Package A+1) for attendees wishing to bring along a significant other who will not be attending sessions, but will be joining us for meals and the social outing on Saturday night.

Please (re)visit the registration page to view these updates, and remember, only a few days remain to take advantage of the 10% early registration discount.
