If I recall, flights to the UK from the east coast are considerably cheaper than the rest of the nation. I was looking to visit my sister in New York before flying to Edinburgh, and the tickets were about $500 or so.
Also totally fine with either Edinburgh or London.
I'll send everyone an anonymous survey once I get to work.
A quick search shows, for March next year, from perth: A) to heathrow, $2330; B) To LAX, $1612.
Edinburgh, London or California (lol having a whole state instead of somewhere in particular).
I would definitely lean to somewhere that is easy for international flyers to get to, so London would be better than the 'Burgh in this case (despite being a more expensive place to be in, in general) for the UK.
The only other question would be if we have someone in either location who would be willing to do some legwork on finding places for us to stay. Not that I am saying that people outside of these locations can't look up potential places, but it is better if we have someone who can say "Whoa, no, don't go there!" or whatever. xD
I guess London is an improvement on Birmingham/Manchester. :S

Spuuky and I would attend a meetup in Portland, California or Washington. Given that I spent a month's worth of wages on medical expenses yesterday, I cannot see us going any further than that.
California is honestly something to consider. Aussies would be able to get there easier, and members in the US who might not otherwise be able to go (Spuuky, Calliope, Pike, Hux, Tori, shion, sharky) might be able to come.
Like I said, I'm gonna be there regardless.
Travel abroad is certainly doable for myself and Matt (although I am on a 6 month contract at work, who knows where I'll be in a few months time. xD), so we are pretty much good with anywhere too.
Please let me know after you've taken the survey. I want to make sure the responses are populating D:
I have taken the survey. :3
oh man, I got nothing. I hope it will populate soon; maybe it's just the server D:
edit: nevermind, we got responses! Thanks, folks
I took it!
thanks, guys :D
also, asshats and your member names I SEE YOU
