CON!

[revolutionaryjo]

I don't even know where to start to convey exactly how amazing of a weekend I had at CONvergence.

Every one of my 11 panels was fantastic. I love and adore the slash panel, as always, because I always meet new people there. This year, I met bessyboo and her lovely girl!Jack costume. (I need to remember that we should do a Meta Panel next year too!) And I

I think bessyboo had my favorite costume of the con. It was just so perfect.

(I need to remember that we should do a Meta Panel next year too!)

*giggle* It did turn into a lot of meta towards the middle there didn't it? I liked it because I rarely get to talk these issues outside of LJ without getting really damn annoyed because tone is so important in those conversations. It also made me realize I want to attend a con with way more emphasis on fangirls.

THANK YOU FOR DOING SO MANY WONDERFUL PANELS! And I'm still totally on board for a Merlin panel next year if you'll have me.

[revolutionaryjo]

Yessss! We must do a Merlin panel next year and make it actually happen this time. We've got at least three panelists between you, me, and cottonandice. If we can get a couple more on board, it's nearly a sure thing.

So I think this means I'm already planning on four panels for next year, lol. Nothing like getting started early. :)

Vividcon tends to be where I get my fix for fangirl-centered cons. (Reminding me to tell you that you should come to it one of these years!) But I really would like to get out to attend Escapade or another slash con sometime too.

Thank you for attending so many of my panels! It was great to see you in person again! I just wish there had been more time to chat. Next year, I suppose. :)

Four panelists! I would totally be game for a Merlin panel!

[revolutionaryjo]

Excellent! And I have it here in writing now so I don't forget who all was interested.

[bendtothesun]

For serious, there is so much about that series I want to talk about! Especially since at this point god knows what they're going to do with season 3. XD

Lol! Already? Dare I ask what else you've got lined up then?

Vividcon kinda scares me off a little with the wank that seems to plague it every year and the fact that it's so small. I've never actually attended a con that small, it makes me O.o. Yessss a slash con! Especially if it's like the slash panel x100 or so. I still vote we need an after party for that panel, nobody ever wants to stop talking. XD

Hey if you keep having such great panels I'm going to keep attending them. :P Oh! Could you pass on to the lovely lady at the DGrifters panel with the curly hair and large flower that I've found some extended version, widescreen tv rips of a few Nero Wolfe episodes? And I can upload them for her if she's interested.

So for next year's panels, I'm already thinking of: The Meta Panel, a podfic panel, Slash panel (of course), and the Merlin panel. :)

Haha, yes. We need a Slash Panel Afterglow somewhere. Next year I may have to just announce that we are relocating to the garden court or something for continued fangirling.

VVC is less scary than you might think, actually. I've gone for 4 or 5 years now and the atmosphere at the con is always really positive and friendly. Everyone is very approachable. Room parties there are a great way to meet people. If there is any drama at the con itself, it's never hit my radar. I go primarily as an attendee though. (I've only had one of my vids in a vidshow, and it wasn't even for Premieres.) But hey, if nothing else you could hang with me and my friends. We're pretty drama-free. :)

I will pass the info on to cottonandice for you!

[bendtothesun]

\o/ And knowing you you'll probably have 6 more by the time the con actually rolls about. I'm kinda amazed you have time for anything else. XD

Score! That would be quite perfect I think.

Hah, that makes sense. Like this year it seems there's been nothing but wank about it but again that's through an online filter so yeah. I'll definitely have to keep that in mind, especially since you and your friends seems to be (and are) so awesome. :)

Thank you!

[cottonandice]

Oh my God, I would be totally interested. That's so awesome! :D

[bendtothesun]

My reaction was essentially "!!!!!111!!!! OH MY GOD" >>

They're not as high quality as the dvd rips because they are from a tv and probably not an HD broadcast considering the time NW was out. But like Posion Ala Carte is 90 minutes long! I watched that one last night and at points it dragged (it feels a bit like a rough cut in that respect) BUT OMG SO MUCH GOOD CHARACTER STUFF WAS CUT!

Is Megaupload good for you?

[cottonandice]

That would be just fine. OMG thank you!

(Jo, take note. You should click the impending links, too!)

[bessyboo]

*waves* HI, I DON'T KNOW YOU (actually, if you were at the slash panel, I totally do, but I'm not sure who you were XD), but I am deeply flattered by your appreciation of my costume :D

Also, Jo, I totally, uh, fifth? The Merlin panel idea.

[bendtothesun]

Heh! I was the one who wouldn't stop talking with the blonde hair and the Pinky!Doctor and Brain!Donna shirt. You had a deeply awesome costume, I do hope lots of people complimented you on it (as they should have).

[bessyboo]

YOU! YOU HAD THE T-SHIRT OF EPIC WIN. Clearly I must friend you. :D
