Lily Valley Posted June 25, 2015 Share Posted June 25, 2015 Lily, what's involved in running a table? Just answering questions about the committee, venue and trying to hawk pre-supports. New Orleans itself is a pretty easy sell. I mostly just had to reassure people that the date would be before Labor day, that it was air-conditioned and located downtown with easy access to the French Quarter. Even if you could break people a spell now and then it would be great. :) Hold on a sec... DC17 needs Ser Scott too. There are a couple of events where we definitely need help. I ASKED HIM FIRST!!!! In all seriousness, any night I'm not busy I'll be glad to help. Hopefully we can get tables next to one another so we can chat? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't guarantee it, but Makotohanabi might be willing to spell you or sit and visit as she isn't locked into DC17 committee work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fragile Bird Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 <snip> When you have the time, Ser Scot, could you add to the names when everyone is coming in and leaving, or, at least, those who have mentioned it! It would be good to see when folks are going to be there, easily, instead of scrolling through the thread. :) And I need to decide whether to come in on Tuesday or earlier. :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arlingzen Bill Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 It seems I may not have noted that makotohanabi and I will be at Sasquan... oops... we get in late Monday night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frisco Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 PSA: If you want to float the Spokane River on Thursday the 20th, go post in the other thread! I'll probably try and give FLOW an accurate-ish headcount in a couple weeks. (There will be booze, so this will not cut into our drinking time.)

Ser Scot A Ellison Posted June 30, 2015 Author Share Posted June 30, 2015 Any word on Tee shirts or if they are happening this year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frisco Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 It's not a WorldCon without t-shirts! I assume the design will be unveiled soon--last year's shirt thread was mid-July. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ser Scot A Ellison Posted July 2, 2015 Author Share Posted July 2, 2015 Okay,The current hottest pepper in the world, the "Carolina Reaper" is available in my home state. Do I need to aquire and bring to Spokane remembering that I need to drink the hot drink this year to attempt to appease the travel gods? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baitac Posted July 3, 2015 Share Posted July 3, 2015 Damn i wish I was going!! I have a question. How do I vote for DC17, I mean, vote for 2017th's site? I was in LoneStarCon but there was nothing to vote for because 2016 had already been determined. I was also at LondonCon. I haven't voted before. Can someone tell me when where and how?

I would do it just for the possibility that a TSA agent would give me crap about them and I might be able to persuade them to try one. But yes, if they're only locally available, I think you're required to bring some. :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
