I will be getting a table at Wondercon again this year, not a booth but a table, so I think I will be close to yours.Or in your section anyway.Coming in with anime, cosplay items this time rather than the costumes.

If you want to be near us, Eva, you have to request it on the form. It isn't guaranteed, and you're not considered a fan table, so you probably wouldn't be in the same area as us.

Got the e-mail from WonderCon and SFFF was given a table again - same prime front location as last year happy I'm just kind of hoping we can ask for the RL to be switched... right now SFFF is next to something called Jericho Kansas Inc - I'm guessing a Jericho fan group?

Kathy it would help out a lot if we can get SFF and RL next to each other. Keep trying! Scott and I are here to help just let us know what to do this will be our first Con.

I just sent an e-mail to WonderCon. If I don't hear back from them by the beginning of January I'll call the coordinator directly. I'm not sure why they didn't put RL next to SFFF when we both requested it... other than I heard Matt asked for an additional request and he kind of urged me to ask to be 'near' the GGG which I think was just overload and too confusing. Have one main request and that's it, that's my motto! Hopefully the map is not set in stone right now sad

I'd imagine as we get closer to the con date Matt will post a table shift thread here and I'll do the same at Rebel Legion. Thanks for the offers to help everyone! Every little bit helps a lot.

Should I send an e-mail too, Kathy, or do you think one is enough? Hopefully like you said, nothing is set in stone yet. Perhaps some will drop out and some will add on at the last minute. Maybe GGG can take our F1 spot, if its by the aisle, which is what they prefer for ease of getting in and out with their costumes on.

On another note, I'd suggest buying your tickets now!

http://www.comic-con.org/wc/

The table shifts (and everything else WonderCon-related) will be discussed at the January meeting, which will probably be on 1/17 or 1/24. So please keep checking the boards!

Matt - keep an eye on e-mail as I'm ccing you on my correspondence with WonderCon. They are trying to work with us and right now they will switch RL to the Jericho spot if they can get the OK from that fan group for the switch. If that doesn't work, I did suggest plan B (SFFF switch with GGG... since GGG is easy to get a hold of. Hopefully they'll help us out).

I don't think Vegas was ever on the list of cities that LFL was considering. You may be confusing it with Matt, Dale and Ming's wish to have it there. The last rumor the LFL put out is they are looking at cities mid west and back East. (I can't remember the specifics right now).

The last thing I heard about anything "Celebration-related" in Vegas was on a TF.N thread where fans were considering a celebration (of sorts) to just see each other again, after meeting each other for the first time at CIV in LA.

But like Kathy said, no cities have been determined or finalized. When I last spoke to Mary Franklin, she said even the rumored cities for CV (Baltimore, Orlando and Chicago included) were just that - rumors.

My guess is that the city will be finalized early next year, announced at Comic-Con, tickets going on sale in the fall, and CV taking place in May 2010 for Empire's 30th anniversary. grin


And now, back to our topic....

Okay, thanks. I won't schedule my vacation based on that thread in community.

What are the dates for Comic Con? Not trying to derail the thread, just need to get my vacation days finalized before the year's end.

Hey, I heard back from the table coordinator at WC and he said he'll just go ahead and switch Rebel Legion to be next to SFFF like we were last year. That takes a heap of worry off of some of the RL/SFFF Command and council members since a lot of us wear two hats. Now we can actually be in two places at once if we have to be! laugh
