I run a lot of events in lots of major cities. I can tell you from experience bigger cities can be more fun (depends) but have its own drawbacks. Depending on the attendee base i think seattle may be good esp for the organizer. if you start branching out to more central locations like chicago you run into other issues, competing orgs for space and housing. Note, September-November is the events industry’s busiest time of year (we are looking at 30 events per month nationwide) so there are going to be quite a bit of issues navigating different blocks at hotels.
Can I bring a tent and crash in your back yard Amal?
Good point about rooms. I wonder if there’s a good 10 bedroom mansion somewhere that we could rent for the meet up and crowdfund it. Some people take rooms, some people take couches?
I was wondering if an airbnb could be a thing
$3,000 divided by 12 people is $250 per person from Nov 24-27.

Airbnb definitely is a possibility, I’ve found it cheaper compared to hotels, even the older Motel 6 locations, when I was traveling with a group.
8bedrooms woof lol 
No wonder they rent it as a airbnb I wouldn’t want to deal with that either lol
Just thinking back to previous events and stuff that’s happened
It would probably be smart to have anyone who’s splitting up an air bnb like this to pay up front…
Then if they flake or can’t make it, the cost doesn’t fall onto the organizer or split onto the other attendees
It’s a quick way for things to get sour real quick

Definitely pay up front and show the reservation to make sure everyone is good and has a place to stay before we all go out there.
Murder?

I’m definitely thinking about the potential of putting on a kind of sleeping bag sleepover for the first go. No cost other than getting here. Implant fun and local cuisine

We can set up a few tents in my back yard.

I’m checking with a local church that’s got a huge amount of building space… like a good old fashioned lock-in

How big is your backyard

Not that big, I was mostly kidding. 
(Although if we all fit, I wouldn’t be opposed.) According to Google maps, it’s approximately 2,275 sqft.
I am also more centrally located. (Topeka, KS)

I’m in a suburb 15 min south of Detroit. I have access to a meeting space that I can reserve. It’s two blocks from a tattoo shop that’s biohacker friendly. Airbnb in this area is crazy cheap but I may have a rental of mine that’s opening up and if it does during the timeframe I’d have free housing. Note that if the rental does open there will be no bed or furniture just basic appliances

An installer is a very good idea. I’ve done my own so far, but I have an xbt I want to get under my skin and I don’t think I’ll be doing that one myself.
We could have a biohacking camping trip on a 26 acre property in Tennessee that my grandfather owns. It’s also right next to a gorgeous state park. We have some makeshift camping spots but it’s mainly woods with some makeshift camping spots and a few small buildings at the moment. The power and plumbing would need a lil investment. The park is Fall Creek Falls. If I know a timeframe I could see about how we could get everything ready. I have some ideas on how we could get it set up but we’d have to hash out what kind of events would be happening and how many people would be coming.
Gorgeous place
