Hey all!
Now's the time to be thinking about this. Who's going to Dragon Con. Any have you guys heard any rumors on who might be there from our BDH's?

Mike

Below are a couple of my fan sites. (In progress) The myspace one has a cool firefly video I got from You tube. Check it out!

Me and the missus are plannin an evnin to visit her mother. Since she's close to Atlanta we might throw some credit for pre reg and bring SOME strawberry jam. We can't butter everyones biscuts. Don't really know what We'll do when we get there seein as this will be her first con and I've only been to gamer cons. (See Hon. When you get all dressed up and pretty, I'll take you nice places.)
We hope to recognize some of fellow non-conformist browncoats when we get there.

I died my browncoat black for those whom have gone before.

Whimsical, I promise you will recognize other Browncoats. We went through this a couple of years ago before there was any pretties to buy. You'll see folks with lanyards that say Browncoat, Firefly, Serenity. Leather lanyards with Browncoat sayings and of course t-shirts. You'll have no trouble recognizing us. Come up and say HI!!

I'm planning on being there! I'm also excited to say my hubby may be coming with me! Granted he's only doing it cause he doesn't want me going by myself, but I'm just glad he's going is all. I'm so excited to meet everyone and march with the other 76ers. This'll pretty much be my 1st con so it'll be so much fun to experience everything.

Hi Roxy,
You will SOOOO NOT be alone once you get here. But your hubby will be good at getting on line for the BDH panels very early and saving you a seat and bringing food so you don't have to miss anything. I mean that in a nice way, if your hubby has no interest in Dragon*Con and is truly coming just to keep you company he may get pretty bored but the thought is nice.

lol! I might just have him do that! He'll be my lil go-fer. To be fair to him though, he is a Firefly fan, just not as big a Browncoat as me. He's also a scifi fan, so I think he'll enjoy it, he's just not all hyped up like I am. I'm trying to convince him that I'll be fine and it'll save us so much money if I just go alone (I REALLY want him to go with, but if you could just see the face he makes everytime I mention it, you'd understand). Well, I'm gonna have a great time and if he complains I'll just hand him over to the battalion.

Oh Roxy, if your hubby IS into sci-fi, he WILL have fun despite himself. He'll be making happy faces once he gets here. Promise and if not, yup, hand him over to us, the 76th knows how to deal with party poopers.

I think that's a good idea... I vote we put a contest out to the fan artists to design a little badge (say 2x3 inches in size, timeline by May), then we vote (say by July), then we post the winning badge (say by August 1) so that everyone can download it, take it to their local printer/laminator, and wear it around!!!

But in response to dragon-con, I'll be there too!

Our IDs will often have our screen names, and there will be a lot of Browncoat lanyards, not to mention Jayne hats and other tell-tale signs. Maybe we need special fff.net badges because we are "special".

We like the Marriott Marquis. It's a little quieter than the Hyatt, and is right in the middle of the 3 hotels. The panels/Q&A's are usually in the Hyatt, and the dealer rooms are going to be in the Hilton this year. There will be a lot of folk cutting through the Marriott, so I'd ask for a floor higher up if you need the quiet. The Hyatt is usually considered the party hotel, I believe, with all manor of noise from the lobby into the wee hours. You might want to stay there if you're a partier, and don't mind waiting for an elevator.

And as to coming alone...there are Browncoats EVERYWHERE at D*C. If you think the $150+ a night for the host hotels is going to be too steep for just yourself, you can always advertise for roommates.

Hope this helps!

HISTORY


Who is scheduled from the cast et. al. from Firefly/Serenity to attend and/or be on panels?

I don't see anyone listed yet at the DragonCon website.

Though based on my B3 experience, just getting a bunch of Browncoats together is a recipe for a great time.

Respectfully,
History
