I missed the whole thing.
Anyhow, is max one coming just for the sake of me keeping this list up to date?

Pretty much, I think most of us are pretty laid back, and most of the rules are pretty self evident, but somebody has to come up with wording, and maybe not everyone will be happy with the wording, and I can't speak for the organisers but I think the door was opened for suggested improvements.
 
Honestly I'm not sure how diplomatically one can word requests regarding to personal hygiene, grooming, behaviour and etiquette without the guidelines coming off as suggestions rather than necessity.  Some of these things are not self evident, but IMO all the guidelines are reasonable given the nature of the event.

By the way, if anybody is driving over to the meet and passing through Central/Broadway area, please PM me if I can catch a ride.
I will have two big suitcases full of gear so it's a bit of an effort. If no ride is available then I can always catch a train there.

it would be indeed terrible if you have to pull two trolleys while catching the train. Please, is there anyone passing Broadway area?

  I think I've been to all of the past Sydney meets and have always had good times with fantastic organisation.
I am sure this one will be a great one too.
 
A strict set of rules ensure the members act professionally, and I feel comfortable bringing over $10,000+ worth of my gear.
We are also fortunate to have a guest vendor Minidisc.com.au with lots of their precious demo equipment.

Sorry to hear that you are not happy, Max - I have not seen what you have written.

my quote was" Hi, I am attending. could you please add me. Thanks."

Max I think the member swannie007 wrongly quoted you, he wanted to quote the original post but for some reason he quoted you. You have done nothing wrong.
 
As to the wording of the first post when I read it for the first time it did come across as a little passive aggressive but I think I decided to include a twist of humour into it, I think it is alot better to have a set of rules than not to have it. 
Thanks for all the effort guys and like the saying goes "cant please them all!"

Just for your future benefit max one, try not to quote whole posts if your reply is only a few lines. Particularly if the quoted post is over a foot long/has lots of pictures. People will appreciate it if long quotes are snipped/only a few specific lines are quoted. 
 
Otherwise enjoy your first Can Con - you're sure to enjoy yourself and your jaw will drop when you see sandalaudio's headphone tree.

Is it a worthwhile suggestion to bring a sign of what's available at each station?
 
I'm very excited about a lot of things, but unless getting a visual on where things are, I feel I'll likely forget or miss out on things (especially small things) - also makes it easier to figure out who owns what
 
Edit: Obviously for huge displays (such as the tree) this becomes fairly prohibitive and is outside the point.

Hi is it not too late to throw my name in the ring? I'd like to come too, and I can bring in a pair of Dunu Dn1000s

had considered having signs but tables are usually full of gears and there are usually no space to put the signs. Otherwise the signs would get lost. I usually bring instruction for my portable amp but they usually get lost. However do feel free to bring sign if you want but it is up to each member.

It would probably be a good idea for everyone to tag their name to their gear on headphones cables, and to stick instructions and whatnot to their DAC/AMP's etc. That way they don't get lost.
