To those suggesting location for the next TFG; it would be a much better help for us if you have a contact on those places, or at least have the initiative of talking to the one's in charge of the place, asking for the possibility of using that location, sizing up the place for at least 20 NBP people that will come. It's not easy finding a location the is agreeable to everyone, then expect the admins to do the ocular inspection. We too have a day job just like everyone else.
FYI, It was me who decided to hold the TFG3 at bo's coffee so I'm the one to blame. But why did I choose it? First, nobody suggested options on possible locations which was at least ocularly inspected. Second, I decided not to hold it at GJ Shang since October is rainy season and the only covered area of GJ wouldn't even hold 10 persons comfortably. Third, Bo's mega is the only one me, chie, and Gin physically seen who had free wifi when we had our admin meeting there before. Lastly, Bo's marketing manager was generous enough to offer the place to me after we talked before (I was inquiring about the asus netbook winners). Lastly, suggest a logical place (MDR's suggestion is denied ahahaha!)
Here is a basic criteria in looking for a place;
1. Covered with aircon (so we don't need to have a contingency plan in case it rains)
2. has free wifi
3. can hold at least 20 people comfortably.
4. person in charge is willing to accomodate us
5. location should be middle ground for the majority of users (Between Galleria and Rockwell)
Never take life seriously. Nobody gets out alive anyway
