Hey all,
I missed the line last year due to RA duties, but this year I will definitly be more careful how I plan things. I was still able to make to every game, thankfully! :-D
I was just hoping to get some details/advice from those of you that have done it or may have inside info. When will we know when the line starts, and where will it be? Also, is 4 still the maximum block that we can make?
Thanks for helping out one of Lynah's loudest!
(Keeping super-secret plan to himself) :-P
Just kidding. Plan on being on central with a radio and a computer.
Awesome, thats what I figured. Do we start listening this saturday? It so, I am going to have to cancel my party!
I HAVE to get section B!

Looks like we got the next Greg Berge '85 on our hands here.
speaking of which....where outside would one be able to pick up a wireless signal on central? :)

The areas outside libraries should have wireless. Or just sit at a computer inside and hit refresh every ten seconds for two and a half hours.
Interesting...CIT is doing some work this weekend; unspecified sites will be down. I feel better about the radio announcement.
My money is on 11:29 Saturday. Somebody should organize a pool.
Here is the official announcement:
http://cornellbigred.collegesports.com/sports/m-hockey/spec-rel/092005aab.html
Good luck to everyone, I'm an alum and won't be part of the madness.
Anyone have any idea where the location will be?
Yes. I think it's a reasonable assumption that it will be on the Cornell University campus in Ithaca, NY.

i just got an email from CIT saying (in part):
Computing services unavailable during September 24-25 shutdown
(4 p.m. Sept. 24 through 12 noon Sept. 25)
* E-mail services, including Eudora, WebMail, and uPortal.Cornell E-mail
(all mail will be delivered when outage is over)
* Cornell University web site (www.cornell.edu) and other sites managed by
CIT's IWS group
* CUinfo (www.cuinfo.cornell.edu)
* Cornell University Library online services, including the Library Catalog,
e-Reserves, Find e-Journals, Find Databases, Find Articles, and most
digital collections
* Electronic Directory (Directory Services, the Cornell Electronic
Directory, CUinfo)
* Blackboard and other instructional servers
* eList (Cornell's mailing lists)
* uPortal.Cornell
anyone know if that includes the athletics site?

CornellBigRed.com is hosted by a commercial provider, and should not be affected by this weekend's planned power outage at Rhodes Hall.
WVBR is the official radio source for the info, and will be broadcasting it immediately. There's more info at http://wvbr.com/ and there'll be updates there as available.
That outage will get in the way of the email announcement, won't it?
If the announcement goes out during that outage, yes, it will.
So perhaps it won't be Saturday night, unless they want to see who the real hockey fans are: those people who won't be drunk & at Johnny O's but instead ready, in their cars, listening to the radio. Not that I have a problem with that. B-]
[Q]Yes. I think it's a reasonable assumption that it will be on the Cornell University campus in Ithaca, NY.
Beeeej[/q]Really? I thought the evil Athletic Department was much more creative than that. I can see Andy Nowell right now, scheming up ways to screw the students. For this year, I predict Cass Park. Next year, maybe Carousel Mall. Or why not Lake Placid?
The 2006 Lynah Season Ticket Road Rallye!
Beeeej
Lake Placid sounds great! I only live one hour from there!:-)
And just think of all the accidents students would have trying to be the first one to get there and line up for tickets! Too bad the mountain roads probably aren't very icy yet...
Less students = more tickets for alumni!:-D
Possible Poll:
How far would you travel to get a line number?
Amherst/Worcester
Minneapolis, MN
Nowhere
Grand Rapids, MI
How about the Weill Cornell Medical College in Qatar?
It'd be like The Amazing Race.
Good one. Other than being about the only one to get tickets, the winner could have their trip paid for by broadcasting it on Cornell All Access.
