Hi,
I haven't seen it posted here (although it's in a lot of other places, so feel free to delete if you think it's spam, or not allowed). Cassie Baker is arranging a Ten Inch Hero screening in London, Sept 6th, around midday, so email her if you'd like a ticket. She needs as many people as possible, obviously! Her email address is tihscreening at googlemail.com.

HI GUYS♥
Right, I'm awful at remembering these thing, but I do know a good few who went to Wincon are going to be at Asylum next weekend, (but I also know a few who aren't *cries*) and I was wondering if anyone fancied a meet-up, maybe on Friday afternoon/evening depending on what is best for everyone, anyone interested?
And then maybe bring along anyone who didn't come to Wincon and stuff who your there with, so we can all meet each other?

One thing I meant to say a while back guys,
I put together an e-mail with all the wonderful comments you guys said about my Mum (in reports, or comments) and sent it to her. I think I saw the blush from here in Oxford!
But she was very grateful, so thank you!!

My immense apologies for not posting these earlier. Also I have no idea how to do more than one LJ cut in a post so these will be posted separately. Hope this is okay.
As the people who went to this year's Wincon will know some of us, mentioning no names, had a few drinks on the Saturday night and decided to play our very own porn fiction version of Consequences.
I would also note that as we got more drunk the writing got worse and some of the fics became quite hard to decipher *grins*
It also goes without saying that all of these are NC17.
These are the results, in no particular order:-

| And so we are at an end... |
[10 Mar 2008|07:30pm] |
Hey guys,
So WinConUK 2.0 is officially over. And has been for 24 hours. How weird is that?
The whole weekend was so awesome, and it was all because of you guys. Without you firstly coming, submitting fics, limericks (;p), biographies, panels, DVDs, your porny minds it would have been nothing. But it was handsdown the best weekend of 2008 so far.
So thank you. All of you, and please come back next year to Swindon, and support ![[info]](http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif) charli_macboyd in Swindon, and bring friends too. Because seriously? What you put in is what we all get out of it.
Extra special thanks to ghyste and briarwood for doing fantastic panels and reading fics, that were definitely the high points of the weekend (for me, anyhow). To theaeblackthorn and nebulein for work they put in they both put in beforehand.
And yes, also to charli_macboyd because I can say it over and over until my face resembles a whole punnet of blueberries, but if it weren't for her, and her calm collected attitude, then the weekend would not have been the hit it was. She owns my soul, and I'm sure she's perverting it now but I love her. *squishes* So I can promise you that with her organising it all, it will be MUCH better than WinConUK 2.0. So just think about how fantastic it's going to be.
Finally though, the handdrawn badges that a number of you ended up with, were done by artistic_sillie and she wasn't there to appreciate the thank yous. So if you could all pop over to her journal and tell her how talented she is, that would be brilliant.
And that's it from me! For most of you it'll make your inboxes a quieter place. ;p

| WINCONUK 2.0 - We saw, we conquered, we came in the birdbath |
[10 Mar 2008|01:22pm] |
Another Wincon is over and passes forever into the anals annals of history.
This isn't a recap post of the weekend, this is a thank you and apology post in one.
Thank you to each and everyone of you who came and helped make it a porny success. It's true that you do get to meet the nicest people in fandom.
I know I mentioned it a few (hundred) times during the weekend but can I ask you all to just once more show your love for krazykipper, who did all the legwork, pulled all this together and made all the lunches and organised the whole damn event so that we could get together and have an awesome time. Without her there would have been no Wincon this year.
This year was a steep learning curve and when you're learning, things rarely go smoothly. There were mistakes to apologise for (and none of those mistakes are Kip's), mostly the downtimes. The first Wincon was unstructured, this year we decided to change that. But we started late and things were made up on the hoof and so adjustments had to be made to the running order as we went. Never having done this before you don't know whether it's better to be slightly more disciplined in getting people to sit down and pay attention or let them sit and squee. No one likes harshing the squee. So yes, sometimes things got away from us. But it all serves to help me prepare for next year, and that means an actual timed programme, with proper breaks.
Sadly the projector failed us on the Sunday, probably due to technical inadequacies on my part, but I just couldn't get the damn thing to work. So that was a sad loss.
The feedback forms have proved priceless and, all being well, next year will see the third WinConUK - I hope you will all help spread the word, and I promise to get dates for you just as soon as I can.
So there you go, I hope we didn't fuck up too badly and that you'll forgive us where we did.
Finally we have a little leftover con goodness for all you attendees.
The caption contest. We had a few entries (and to be honest we're not sure who made the entries because we didn't get any names. Whoops!)...but what you didn't know at the time is that there are epic prizes to be won. So here's what I'm going to do. Sometime later today, I'm going to make another post. I'm going to post the two original pictures and a third (because there are three prizes) and then tell you what the prizes are to get your juices flowing. Comments will be screened and then there will be voting for the best captions in about a weeks time and this will also be done via screened comments. The prizes will then be posted to the three winners. See you can't say we're not good to you. Sadly the competition is only open to those who actually attended this weekend.
So please take a moment to stop here and leave your love for Kip and tell us we weren't quite as crap as we thought we were. And also for Kip's mum who made us sandwiches so we didn't have to survive the weekend on Haribo and popcorn, which we did previously!
I love you and miss you all like woah. My house feels all empty and slashless right now...

*grins*
The guy who hires out the rooms at the NBC has given us the big conference room (with DVD projectors) for the same price as the one we were originally going to be in, so we won't be too squashed. You can see the room, here!

Quick favour, can anyone bring S1 and S2 DVDs with them? But they have to be Region 2 for the DVD player, and mine are Region 1. Though I can burn S2 to discs if necessary.
And if you guys want me/someone to come and meet you at the bus station/coachway (if you want a lift)/rail station, let me know what time you're getting in (roughly) and I will do my best to accomodate. ;p
Two more days!!
|
|
| Friday... |
[04 Mar 2008|08:07am] |
So, because a couple of folks have asked me already (and I forgot to check...)
Checkin for the NBC is at 2pm, and also, Mark who hires these things out, has arranged for a cooked breakfast to be included for all of those staying in the accommodation. Which is not what they normally do.
I shall see you all on Friday!

Just realised that there are some folks coming have not seen up to ep 3.12.
Since I'm in the rare position (for me) of having all aired episodes, and I'm assuming there will be spoiler talk around, e-mail me (or comment here) if you're not caught up and I will burn you a copy and send them out tomorrow.
If you're not in the UK I obviously can't guarantee they'll make it to you in time. But trying.

| VIP - Very Important Post. |
[27 Feb 2008|05:10pm] |
So guys...important things because we are now only 9 DAYS AWAY! How weird is that?
Anyway.
1. Caption Contest here. Absolutely no entries yet, so your chances are very very good.
2. Poll for Impala Awards here. Put together by charli_macboyd, much thanks to her, and again, asking you to not look at the results. Makes the weekend more fun, all right?
3. Panels. If you've agreed to do a panel, could you please drop me a line, by e-mail or here, with title and roughly how long you expect it to go on. All of you who do? Are truly truly awesome.
4. Fics and vids. If you're planning to read something at the con, show a vid, again, please let me know? So we can make a list/timetable. Here is fine to do that.
5. charli_macboyd's post about submitting for the Con Booklet reminder is here. Please send in lots of submissions for here. Love to those who have already.
6. For next Friday, for those who are arriving then, luthien82 and I will be in MK centre pretty much all day. But we probably won't stick to one place. If you want my mobile number for when you arrive, then just e-mail me for it. (I think a good portion of you have it already.) Then wherever you are, we can come and find you.
