No one wants to go to Canada, thats just rediculous, so lets just forget about that.

However, I do have an idea. I think the best way to go about this is to create a map at Frappr

http://www.frappr.com/c/user/createamap

You create the category, then everyone can add thier location to the map.

then you cacn physically see where everyone is, and pick the best and most central locations for rally's based on that.

So go ahead Scan, because I'm too lazy :)

if the one guy so far in Saskatchewan is willing to go to BC, then we should do it there. Like it was posted earlier Sas and west one regional man and east another. Im sure the 15 to 20 guys/gals in AB will go for sure.

Maybe no one wants to go to the States, like really, there's no point anymore your dollar has gone down so much, its almost as bad as Mexico :wink:

I checked it out, and I don't think everyone will want to share their information or go through the "create a profile" process.

I'm still going to let this poll run here for a bit and see what we come up with. Around the middle of next week I'll lock this poll down and see what we have as far as numbers. I know there are some obvious things already, like Alberta has a lot of users, and doesn't like need my help to get events going.

Also, I am far from planning on running this thing. Just trying to put the ground work out there in hopes of getting something done for next year.

I welcome anyone else to research that, but I'm sticking with data collection for now. I think it might be to confusing to ask someone to go somewhere else and do something. Like I said, we'll give this a week or so and I'll lock it up and share the results. We can try to open a formal plan dialog at that point.
