A postcon report for a virtual comicon? YES, B’Y!<\/p>\n
I’ve seen a bunch of Bittercon\/can’t-be-there-con\/VirtualCons attempted, and this one sincerely had way more going for it than any other one I’ve ever seen. I mean, once you’ve got panel programming going? You may as well start selling tickets. Cosplay! Interviews! Wet con suite! The aforementioned panel programming! Room parties of horrible film<\/a>! (Okay, I’m kind of retroactively including Friday night’s Sharknado<\/i> vs. Deep Blue Sea<\/i> suck-off here. Sharknado<\/i> won.) Dealers! Giveaways! Really<\/em> short plane trips home! What else can you ask?<\/p>\n I missed shinykari<\/a>‘s Overly Dramatic Readings panel, which is a shame, because I heard nothing but hilarity coming out of it. tereshkova2001<\/a>‘s Rocking Hall Costuming and my Kitting Out Cheap panels drew… we aren’t really sure? Because YouTube is weird. But we both had audiences asking questions and we were able to do Q&A. YouTube’s play stats jumped from 0 to 15 to 51 viewers, and more than 15 people looked at supplementary materials, so I’m kinda leaning towards close to that 51, and I’ve seen plenty of smaller panel audiences at Norwescon panels.<\/p>\n
