[MR] Unevent location - Rumor?

[Siegfried]

I just heard a nasty rumor that I'm seriously hoping is not true.  Can 
someone confirm/deny it?

The rumor is that Unevent has moved from it's traditional location (for 
many years now), and instead is being hosted by Nottinghill Coille, in 
Greenville, SC.

The reason I consider this a 'nasty rumor', is that, if true, it is a 
major problem.

The previous location was almost exactly in the middle of the Kingdom. 
Causing those people from the northern tip to the southern tip to each 
have an 8hr drive, with folks more 'in the middle' making out better.

It was a good compromise.

Greenville, SC ... if that is the location, is a solid 12 hour drive for 
those people in Highland Foorde, Bright Hills, and Spiaggia

A 12 hour drive, not only including current gas prices & the cost of 
that ...

Also means that people must take Friday off to include the travel.  As 
while a 7-8hr drive is doable, via leaving straight from work and 
arriving around midnight ...

A 11-12 hour drive (not counting pit stops), makes that impossible.

Here's hoping to the fact that this is, just, in fact, a rumor.
