Hotdogs and Shampoo is going to be a synonym for humping a doorknob at this point..... That's what it seems like the planning for this TW meetup is. I have been combing through the posts all the way back to the inception of the meet and haven't been able to make heads or tails of how this has gotten so far and gotten no where at all. :-/. So I had to chime in just so I (even though I am probably the only one confused...) understand...
As far as I am understanding right now.....
ON THE ISSUE OF!...Le Center Court:
1. It is run by 'The Foundation' and Zap needs to get confirmation.
2. Zap, has said that Foundation has said yes (i think?) and we could use the court, for 3+, 4+ hours...provided those hours are between 2:30-5:00pm?
3. Since* 'The Foundation has pulled a Sup2Dresq and said "Hey sure, use the court all you want; also, come visit me in south florida.". Zap, has (suggested? implied? proffered? adjective'd?) a $5-10..($20)..donation per person if we use Center Court?
4. Stats: Outdoors. No Lights...Time Frame akin to solar eclipse.
ON THE ISSUE OF!...Zap's Meet Architecture:
1. *Zap has said he won't be there til 2:30. And thus the scheduled meet will be 2:30-5:00?*
2. 2:30-5:00 Window to Fun? (familiarly the WTF?)
a) Could be...2:30-5:00 (or probable earlier darkness) is window simply for center/outdoor courts.
b) Could be...5:00pm could be the window limit that Zap could get us for Center/Outdoor/Indoor from foundation and tennis center peeps.
ON THE ISSUE OF!...Meeting Early Due to Severe Mild Unclearness:
1. Zap will not arrive until 2:30. Thus, all court use will be at regular rate $12/hour for Outdoor, no idea if available or cost of Indoor court time, so $?/hour.
2. Whispers of meeting at alternate location to hit on outdoor courts (not sure if people have decided/planned where) prior to Zap's arrival for the 2:30-5:00pm window. Then moving from this location to meet up for the 2:30 mark.
PUREPRESTIGE FAQ:
1.*The Hype?*aka Center Court (doesn't sound appealing to me?)
a) Zap has said we should do a $5-10 donation, also he mentioned $20 donation? $20 donation total? Otherwise, it is (for ~12 people) $60 @$5, $120 @$10, or $240 @$20 per person.
b) Zap has said it could be ~3-4 hours, but also has said only when he is there thus 2:30 until 5:00. Thus, 2.5 hours or less depending on darkness @ the above posted $.
2. COURT AVAILABILITY.
I don't know if I can decipher. Zap has said, we can come early and are 'welcome to use the courts' implying we could just use them. But also 'standard court fees will apply'. So we are welcome to use the courts just as we are welcome to eat whatever we want at McDonalds..we just gotta pay$.
a) CENTER COURT: For those donating=playing for a few minutes each switching out with others...eh? No lights. Also, isolated from rest of TWMAC who will need to use side/indoor courts.
b) SIDE COURTS: Outdoor as well, unclear as to whether $rates$ apply or not, also whether they apply 'both' before and after Zap arrives. Also will not be lit due to lighting some street and cost to someone unknown.
c) INDOOR COURTS: Unclear whether our meet will strictly be on outdoor courts or also indoor. Unknown if we will be able to have 1 (preferably several?) Indoor courts available for the meet after darkness falls and temperatures fall. Also, again whether $rates$ apply.
Le Conclusion:
Zap is a great guy! Stepping up to fill Sup's lil' shoes that he has forgone for his Florida flipflops (but Sup keeps telling me all these girls keep leaving flipflops at his house...I feel bad for the guy... Sup calls flipflops thongs though...I guess like some people say soda and some say pop?)
Hopefully this post is useful...or people can explain it to me because I have poor reading comprehension *embarrassing*. My head hurts from reading all those pages...or from Sappy's weather forecast update for the wrong date.
