So now that I have your attention-- the time has finally come for me to try and sell my stuff so I can keep my Dragon*Con room!

[info]scarymary_sells


Just like last year I am willing to let people pick up at the con to cut down on shipping costs [you will have to pay beforehand]. In the same vein I am NOT willing to try and hunt you down all weekend so if you think you are going to be hard to reach please don't pick that option. :D

Now, go buy my stuff!  Or I'm goin' to get ya!

Dragon Dreaming

Does anyone need someone to provide some extra spending money by allowing me to sleep in their room? A space on the floor would be great - I'll just bring a camping mat. You'll hardly know I am there except for the extra money in your pocket. I don't plan on sleeping too much - but will shower once a day so no worries about having a smelly room mate.

I run clonepod.org and we were selected as a nominee for a Parsec award - and I didn't know until recently. Now I REALLY want to go! Please help me out and line your pockets with gold.

Please help a fan go to Dragoncon!

Another reg for sale

  • Jul. 24th, 2008 at 4:39 PM
This is actually a reg I bought off of someone else and never put my name on or sent in, so I'd just be forwarding it on. (I really can't afford it this year. I shouldn't have gotten the reg in the first place.)

I'm asking $55, you cover the $20 transfer fee. palmetto at gmail dot com
Sold!

Memory Meme - What exactly did we do again?

  • Jul. 24th, 2008 at 3:33 PM
1. Reply to this post with a memory that we have shared. Heck, make it up if we have no memories (or neither of us remember them).

2. I will respond to YOUR response, with a memory I have of you. I won't be cheap and just repeat the same thing either.

Going to see The Dark Knight in IMAX tonight!!! Now that I know what's going to happen, I can sit back an enjoy the movie and actually use the restroom when needed instead of sitting on the edge of my seat not know when to get up.

Main programming on the in house TV question.

  • Jul. 24th, 2008 at 12:39 PM
I can't tell you how happy I am that they are finally doing this. Here's my question. Will there be anything in the program book tho indicate what events will be televised? Will there be something on the in house TV that might indicate what is being televised?

Thanks!

Yet Another Question, This One for Gamers

  • Jul. 24th, 2008 at 10:31 AM
1. Do I need to preregister for gaming at D*C? I saw somewhere that games are blocked out into four-hour chunks, which makes it seem very organized. Does everything (RPGs, LARPs, etc.) involve preregistration?

1a. If so, how do I do it?

Thanks much!

Crüxshadows

So, I was fortunate enough to see the Crüxshadows live in concert here in Copenhagen. And despite having changed half their line-up since the last time I saw them, at Dragon*Con 2007, they are still great. We got a good concert to look forward to!

Oh my god, all-day X-Files marathon! Thank you, Sci-Fi channel. ........Cause I didn't have a million things to do today. XD

Greetings from INDONESIA!

  • Jul. 24th, 2008 at 3:02 PM
Hello all you crazy geeks, freaks, and fans of culture in America! Tis I, the kabuki fan-dancing Oni!

When last we parted I was heading out to Sasebo, Japan to serve in the U.S. Navy. At the moment I'm in Surabaya, Indonesia; where the skies are blue and the exchange rate is $100 = ONE MILLION RUPIAH! Highly enjoying myself, really. Well then, on to business.

So I hear you're getting MSI to come and play at the con. Figures they'd show up the one time I wouldn't be able to make it. I'm sincerely going to miss being at my all-time favorite convention, not to mention my longest-attended one. I doubt I'll make it next year either, or the year after that as well.
You see, I'm forward-deployed. We make it to home port maybe two months out of the year; the rest of the time we're bumping all over the western pacific. There's NEVER a day off with this one. But in three years I'll be put on shore duty and maybe then I'll be able to afford (in more ways than one, plane tickets back home are INSANE) to come and attend D*C once more, and wave my giant fans around like a loon and pass out in odd places due to lack of a room.
I'm looking forward to it, though...rest assured, I'll have LOTS of stories to tell; and I'll be buying some japanese instruments as well so you might see more than just kabuki when I return!

Until then, I'm thinking of everyone and hoping you're all well; and that somebody'll raise a toast to me at some point and/or time in my memory! YAAAAAAAAAAAR!

I have a membership that I need to get rid of. I'll take $60 for it if you take care of the transfer fee. And if anyone can poke me about how to go about the transferring thing? That'd be great.

advice for the newbie?

  • Jul. 23rd, 2008 at 11:53 PM
This will be my first DragonCon and only my 3rd or 4th con ever (have done GAFilk twice) and am looking for a "what to expect". Anyone have any advice for the first-timer?
