Xray the Enforcer Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 Text messaging has been a very good way to find others at conventions in the past. It's certainly the fastest way I have of communicating with everyone on the ground. As such, I'm getting together a phone list for this year's convention. Send me your phone number to this email address: xraythemod [at] gmail dot com I will make a Google doc (and share it with anyone who has gmail) with all* of those numbers in it, so people can stay in touch. *If you would prefer to not have your phone number on the Google Doc, let me know. I will retain it for my use at the convention, but I will NOT put it in the shareable document. Mr. X and I won't know our UK phone numbers until next week. You can let me (and everyone else) know that you've sent me your contact info in the thread here. Also, linky to the FB group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/532631506801816/ ETA: I now have phone contacts for: MaltaranAdzAlythaAratanAoifeFlipLyannaLiffguardYolkboyWorld's Strongest HoboSam of TarthMountain GoatSopheliaWilliamjmSkylarkMr. Darcy's CatDeedles (?) Anyone on this list wish to opt out of the shared document? Send me an email at xraythemod at gmail and I'll make sure you're not on the final doc.I'll share this document on Tuesday when we get into UK and have our UK phone numbers. :) Feel free to PM each other and swap numbers as well. I found that as long as a critical mass of people got a message, most of the group would eventually get it as well.Can't wait to see you all!

Elgernon Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 just a thought I am not sure how many people here use google hangouts, but they work independent of sms/phone company ie as long as you have wifi, maybe we could include google contact info as well for people who care to? Or who are choosing not to buy a uk sim card. (Not that I am trying to make more work for the X's as they have already gone above and far beyond, and I would like to thank both Xray and Mr X for all their work so far and during the con too!) I will have a UK number, but also wont know it until Wednesday. eta: I just noticed the mention of the FB group in the party thread, that is probably more useful than the hangouts idea so, nothing to see here, carry on :leaving: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lyanna Stark Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 Sent. I really hope everything everywhere has WiFi as the thought of living without 3G for an extended length of times gives me the shakes. :crying: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deleted01 Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 Turns out that I am on the FB group, just haven't been receiving notifications for a while. My signal tends to be rubbish, so if there's WiFi, people can always contact me on FB :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brook Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 We get into London tomorrow so will send ours once we get it :-)I'll say in advance I never ever answer phone calls or have my phone off silent so text will be better than calling if anyone wants to contact us.
