The only thing we are missing as prizes are CAs, we still have CT's and the badge to give out. We should still be able to get a draw of people to each event.


Also moving ahead with UnCon we would be bringing back apart of the norm that the old boards used to have and UnCon in general should increase moral on the boards.


Agreed. We probably need to push it back a bit due to the disruptions, though.

rush classic's departure from the boards is not a good sign.  Has there been any movement on Uncon?

This thread seems to indicate that we should definitley be moving forward with UnCon in the new system. I'd appreciate it if one of the VCL's got word out to the others in the VCL group about this, so we can keep them up to date on planning.


As UnCon Co-Director, I'm certainly up for the challenge of getting it done right this year. I'm just going to need everyone to have some patience with me as some things may be delayed in terms of how quickly I can address them. Other than that, we should be good to go for the most part.

At the moment, I'm not sure. Below are the main things that I think need to be discussed or are things from last year that need correction or just need to get done by me.


  1. How to incoporate both forums and groups into the new UnCon system. Maybe using the old Section Organizer system.
  2. Create a group, later on, as an UnCon directory for players to use to find events and sections they may not see otherwise. We can fix the Calendar problem here.
  3. Determine the optimum prize support system given our new restrictions.
  4. Work with CM for special guests and how to optimally use the new features of the board including chat (note: I am aware this is Gardevior's area, but it illustrates my point).
  5. After the structure is setup, we need to begin recruiting event hosts who can design events and submit them to their SO's.

Anything critical I'm missing?

Character and world creation are a form of expression. The point is that some people don't have much to say...

I'd prefer to have anything that needed CM coordination all to come through here, so I can get everything presnted nicely to them. I have yet to talk to them directly about it, but am working on getting that setup in the next few days.

I suggest creating an UnCon 2009 Group, with each thread in the group forum linking to the various threads around the boards. Or do the opposite, and have threads in various parts of the forums link to contest threads that will be held in said group.
