Boston, August 9-11 1996
The Bids[edit]
Details are sketchy. Hopefully one day silentq or Siobhan will tell the full story of C2 - Toronto.
The location of Convergence 2 was announced. No vote or other discussion took place.
The first announcement was by retardboy for it to be in Toronto, ON in April, 1996, however he couldn't organise a piss up in a bar so if it had not been for Cusraque that could have been it for Convergence.
Fortunately, Cusraque asked / announced his intent to hold another Convergence - originally intended to be Convergence III in August 1996 and the consensus on the group was that this was a good thing.
The consensus amongst the Toronto net.goths ( Siani, Siobhan to name but two) on the newsgroups was that the Toronto plan wasn't going to happen - more by their silence than active statements.
Net result - Convergence 2 went to Cusraque in Boston by fiat.
