Hey there T A,

Zipcar will be taking people to locations in SF. If you sign up early - I'm sure you should be able to get dropped off at one of the SF BART stations. Also keep in mind though, that since there will be a limited amount of Zipcar vehicles, there will also be a limited amount of rides as well. That being said, there will be Town Cars that will be working on a flat rate in SF, and hopefully some cabs, all of which could also drop you off at SF BART stations - so you can get back to the East Bay.

Aimee, according to the recent email, it said that if we Elite members were not confirmed for the special portion of the event, we do not have to rsvp twice because the initial rsvp would take care of it.  I hope this makes sense :)

hii yelpers! okay so, here's my dilemma. my friend and i both rsvp'ed for this event. i got a confirmation and he didn't. seeing as how i would know absolutely NO ONE at this party, it kinda scares me to venture out to the city alone, at night, to eat and drink with people i don't know. =( i'm sure you all are super cool people haha. i''m just not sure if i feel right going alone. it kinda goes against everything my mom taught me about protecting myself as a female from predators. 1) don't walk in dark alleys alone at night. 2) don't let anyone slip a roofie into your drink. 3) don't go to yelp parties alone. see?

sooo.. does anyone have a +1 that they're not using? and if so, would you be willing to use it on one of my friends so that i can arrive with someone i know?? i'm totally social and i love meeting new people, so i promise i won't be all awkward and only stick to my one friend. i really just don't feel safe going to this event by myself.

thanks!

Hello Yelp Staff (I hope someone sees this):

Thanks for doing such a great job, and congrats on another banner year.  Just curious about the RSVP process for the PLEY.  I emailed pley@yelp.com on Thurs, 11/13 to RSVP, and just heard back today (Tues, 11/25) that it is full, with over 8,000 requests.  Absolutely understandable, very popular event, just hard to believe it takes 12 days (only 8 working days though) to reply.  I'm not an Elite member either, just regular.  Heard at least one other Yelp-er with the same experience.

Would love to hear if that is normal.  In any case, have a great party!

Les, given the logistics of planning something like this, and given that they did have over 8,000 RSVPs - combined with people responding late, people who responded early who then gave up their spots - it's a pretty substantial job for them.

i got my +1 in. sooo haappyyyy. so if i were to try and take bart here.. how would i get from bart to the exploratorium? is it far? (haha obviously i'm not good with navigating myself around the city. bear with me). i WOULD drive.. but then there's that little detail of not wanting to drive when there's an open bar. OPEN BAAAAR.

also, how much earlier than 9pm should my guest and i try to arrive if we want to get in in a reasonable amount of time?

aaand.. is this a dress and heels type of event for ladies?

3. East Bay carpool sounds good. The only problem is, we all want a ride & nobody wants to drive ;(

-------------------

SELLING their spots?!? Epic FAIL! Anyone who does that ought to be suspended at least, if not terminated. It's a free event and you know there's a waiting list. If you can't go, turn your spot back in so they can give it to someone else.
