No, I'm okay, but I dunno about the Deskpro...went home last night resolved to unplug all the peripherals and set it down next to the desk to await gutting in September, but after I cleared off all the papers and crap I had stacked on top of it I decided to power it up and see what happened.

I have contacted the necessary people to bring this issue to some kind of resolution, and I still have a lot of faith in the con, so there's still a good chance that things will right themselves before the convention.

Most cons go through moments like this, and most pull through in one way or another.
Again, thank you!

I hope it all works out for the best between you and Anime Iowa. I've enjoyed working there as a volunteer these last few years and would hate to cross it off my list because somebody on concom went off half-cocked. As for AD/ATC doing anything one way or the other, well, I suspect we'll wait to see how this works out.

As for official support, my suggestion is to simply give the existing concom a chance before we take any action. Jumping all over them and pulling support at this point is only going to create a more awkward and tense situation for jariten and everyone else involved. It puts people on the denfensive and makes us look like jerks. If need be, we can discuss it in further detail after AI06 when there may be better information about what's happening and why.

I'm just saying this looks bad and we ought to consider taking action if the AI concom and/or Mindbridge don't. I'm not saying we should pile on right away...by all means, let's wait to see what happens. I don't see how it makes us look like jerks to stand up for our own people when they're getting the slimy end of the stick, though.
