Don't you mean the 13th through the 15th? Are we adding another day to the event next year?

This could be for a new pre-event day called Disassembler.

 

12th – Disassembler

13th – Precompiler

14th,15th – CodeMash

Actually, my body couldn’t physically take another day.

I guess the Disassembler could be a day at the waterpark or spa to gain that Zen-like vision for the next 3 days.

How about a Linker. A social networking day that happens the day after
Codemash when we all get together at the waterpark.

Isn't that every codemash day after normal people go to sleep? Well
except for the waterpark, I have no desire to see most of you in the
water park, no offense :).

Anybody else think it's lame the waterpark closes so early? Maybe the
Thursday night party could conclude at the waterpark? I'm sure if we got
someone to sponsor it, we could get Kalahari to keep it open only to
CodeMashers for an extra hour or two that night. As it is, I never make it
to the water park because when it's open I'm busy at CodeMash and when it's
later and I might think about going, it's closed.

of that until runtime.</PetPeeve:Rant>

I've always looked at Saturday as waterpark day, the rest of the time is about taking part in the conference, itself. The rooms provide us with enough wristbands to spend Saturday enjoying the slides, so it is just a matter of planning ahead and staying Saturday.

My personal opinion and experience at the last 3 codemashes has been that, during the week, the waterpark is a distraction from (my interpretation of) some of the fundamental goals of the conference: in general, people go to the park with their friends; it is more difficult to have discussions in the park; walking up to a group of people and introducing yourself is less available; etc. I know a lot of people do go to the waterpark during the week, and I will admit that I think it is a bit of a shame; in the end, though, everyone has different agendas and goals for attending codemash, even some that (gasp!) don't coincide with mine.

Now, if someone independently wanted to drum up enough money to keep the park open, I wouldn't have anything to say about it (although I doubt I would go), but, considering how tight the funding is for the conference as it is, I would prefer to see any extra sponsorship go more directly towards the conference and sustaining it.

For me, the 'later and I might think about going(, it's closed)' is just the transition to the second half of the day at codemash; the day is for formal discussions, the night is for further refining the ideas with groups of people both familiar and previously unfamiliar.

Just my 10 cents, though.

I concur, I'd rather see the weekend be there to allow "decompression at the waterpark" then to take time away during the week.  Though some facilitating of after-hour's get together's would be useful I think...

I think Saturday in the water park would be a “Decompiler” no? J
