Almost Finished Prep
My thanks to those of you who submitted questions for Match Game SF. I used many of them, and that will keep the number of "reruns" to a minimum (mostly in the tie-breakers, if needed). The question cards are printed and most of our material prepared, except for the commercials, because I'm still waiting for ad copy from Leprecon, which has donated two L37 memberships to the prize pool. They join our "regular" sponsors, Night Shade Books, Springtime Creations, Cargo Cult Books, and Westercon 64, along with the Tonopah in 2012 Westercon bid. Yes, by the time we go "on the air," the election will be over, but that won't stop travelswithkuma from being a good sport and donating pre-supporting memberships and t-shirts as prizes.
I'll have to put off printing the commercials until Monday. Also, we're still short one panelist, so I can't print a name tent for him/her. We may end up with a different panelist for each of the two shows.
We'll be in Pacific B/C on Friday night at 8 PM and Saturday afternoon at 3 PM. Note that the 3 PM start is "off grid" in that most program items start at 2:30; however, we've asked for the extra half-hour to give us time for tech set-up. Friday night is "Match Game PM" and should be considered potentially R-rated. In both cases, we plan to play four games in our allotted time, with no planned break. In the fairly unlikely event that we underrun, we can dig into the archives of old questions for additional games.
