wincon

I CAN'T BELIEVE WINCON IS OVER! I swear, every year it feels like the weekend goes by faster and faster...

Before this weekend becomes even more of a blur than it already is, let's exchange some information!

<b>LJ name:</b> <b>Twitter name:</b> <b>Tumblr name:</b> <b>Other places you can find me:</b> <b>Primary fandoms:</b> <b>I want to recommend this:</b> <b>You probably know me from <lj user=wincon> because I:</b> <b>Also, I want to say:</b>

I suggest copying and pasting the coding in the text box, but please feel free to omit anything you don't want to share, or add anything relevant. (Especially identifying details...i.e. did you wear something amazing, have a great talk about a specific topic, coordinate an activity or panel, etc. Anything that will clue people in to YOU actually being YOU.)

We had a lot of new faces this year, as well as a lot of veteran attendees, and it was amazing seeing all of you!!! I know I didn't get to spend nearly enough time with as many people as I wanted to, so hopefully this post will enable us to all keep in touch. This post is not just limited to 2015 attendees - if you've ever attended Wincon (EVER) or plan to (EVER) then you should play too. Let us love you!

ALSO! IF you made a post-con Wincon review post, please link to it! I wanna read it!

ETA: We've had a couple reported issues with comments on this post being auto-screened and marked as spam by the LJ-Bots. I think I got them all switched over to public comments, but if you have any issues, plz send me a message on LJ or on my Twitter (@spikess). Thanks!

Did you come to Las Vegas this year to show your true fan colors and have a fantastic time? Did you meet cool people but suddenly can't remember their online (and/or offline) names? Reply here with the following and make some awesome new friends:

We'll be adding this to the userinfo shortly, but we wanted to do a quick post to remind everyone where they can find Wincon in all corners of the wide web and/or how to contact us! It's important for Wincon to be visible throughout the year in all the places fangirls play because even though there are many of you who would never miss a Wincon, there are some people who have never been before (gasp!) or who haven't gone in a few years for all kinds of different reasons. We want them to see how great Wincon is and come and have as great a time as the rest of us do so that Wincon can live foreverrrrr. (We are totally surviving the zombie apocalypse y'all. Ain't no one resourceful like fangirls.)

First, contact emails:

Main E-Mail: [email protected]
Raffle E-Mail: [email protected]
Vids E-Mail: [email protected]
Amber's E-Mail: [email protected]

Also, the entire con comm has access to the main e-mail, so if you ever have question or an idea or a comment... whatever! Our virtual doors are always open.

Second, here are all the great places you should come follow us on the internet (seriously, the TUMBLR is getting really awesome, you guys):

Twitter: Wincon http://twitter.com/#!/wincon
Tumblr: Wincon http://wincon.tumblr.com
Website: omgwincon.com

And the website is getting a facelift by the end of the year. We've got a team hard at work on it and we're super excited by the ideas being bandied about (including a brand new registration system, yay!) and our very own tenaciousmetoo will be updating it regularly with stuff about the upcoming year's wincon and all kinds of other goodies.

SO! Come stalk us on the internet. Isn't that what all this great web 2.0 stuff is for?

So our website is up! http://omgwincon.com

It's EXTREMELY basic right now but over the next week we'll continue to add information and links to it, including a FAQ that should answer most questions any newcomers may have about what to expect at Wincon.

This comm is now officially a forum spot for Wincon. All of you who are members of the comm have been given posting access. So if you're looking for roommates or wanna start a thread about prom attire, this is now the place for y'all to do that. If you're just watching the comm for updates, you'll need to sign up as a member before you can post here. The posts that you guys make here will also post in a feed on the new site, so post wisely! We don't wanna scare off any of the folks who may come to us from outside LJ. ;)

A big thanks to our webmistress ignited for all the work she's put into the site so far. We couldn't have done it without her.

Questions? Y'all know how to find us. Seven months and counting!
