Message Leighton P beers 33826 º places 1204 º 04:48 Tue 5/5/2015 Hi team. We have received two proposals for RBESG, so we will put it to a vote. As noted previously, voting will be open until the end of 12 May 2015. Please submit your vote via beermail, addressing it to both chriso and leighton. Here are the proposals (please click on the links to view the full proposals): Gothenburg: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1xMeIjIQPvfKEEQ_0bcT5d4vDcc3xJT8iUlDkfb9XN30/edit?usp=sharing Copenhagen / Malmö: https://docs.google.com/document/d/10BeZwW4EoL5QtIH8MEE7FBHNQlmRdjYDbVdClexpocU/edit?usp=sharing While it probably goes without saying, you may only vote once, so please no attempts to circumvent that rule. Additionally, in good faith we ask that you only vote if you intend to participate in the RBESG that receives your vote. We want attendance to be as high as possible, and attempts to game the voting system could lead to a less well attended event. Thanks very much to the RBians who submitted proposals. They both look good and I’m confident that regardless of the winning location, the RBESG will be great fun. Cheers.
Message Martinus beers 5018 º places 224 º 05:52 Tue 5/5/2015 Damn! Both are solid proposals!

Message axl beers 1205 º 12:59 Tue 5/5/2015 Wow! I was grumpily thinking to myself that I wouldn’t be able to make it because of finincial constraints and suddenly there are two options right in my neighbourhood. Really hope I can actually make it now!
Message Benzai beers 20020 º places 321 º 01:58 Wed 5/6/2015 Superb proposals, credits to both. The dates unfortunately are making it nearly impossible for me to attend :( On the other hand, I couldn’t make a choice anyway.

Message Marduk P beers 22227 º places 998 º 02:37 Wed 5/6/2015 Huh, 2 solid proposals. Copenhagen/Malmö looks like a real battle between throat and bladder, while Gothenburg is more like nice hoppy farts in the morning. Both are good. Since money doesn’t grow on trees (quite opposite what my government seems to think) can you guises please give us some information about prices. Beer- average prices in shops (macros/micros), pubs, sampler plates etc. Food- from average street food to proper pub meals + junk (’cause once one is drunk...) Accommodation- Hostels to hotels. Local transport- I once thought that walking from house nr 50 to 100 is "just around the corner". It was in Moscow. Bad plan was bad. I think that covers pretty much everything one needs to calculate approx budget for the event.
