Convergence: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 18:16, 9 April 2008

Our annual party. Shenanigans occur.

It started out in 1994 when the regular posters on alt.gothic decided that meeting up was a good idea.

Since then, every year a bunch of people from different cities put together bids to host the thing (I pity the fool...). The bids are then voted on, and the winner gets the job of doing all the work so that the rest of us can have fun (some people have a strange definition of 'win')

Some of the old bids have survived.

Some of the attendees put pictures on the internet. Take a look.

Somehow we're slow to learn, 'cos in August 2008 we're having number 14 in Ybor City, Florida
