99 bottles of beer on the wall.

My too (that is if I go- should know within the next two weeks or so). Also, if I go, I'll be on my own- none of my friends would ever consider going to a con- I'm different:) Plus, I'm really shy so I'm hoping I won't get lost and I'll be able to find someone to help me navigate and such.

No problems, Seph. Just find the BC table and loiter a bit and you'll have more friends than you know what to do with. Really, it's that easy! Plus, since we know you'll be there, we'll be expecting you and can do girly *squeeeeeee*ing when we finally catch up with each other!

I barely knew a soul when I went last year, just a few people I met briefly at a screening in Charlotte, but I had a blast and made tons of friends. D*C is fantastic.

Oh, that's exciting! The girly squee sounds fun hehe. Alright, I must go devise a plan to get to GA- once I come up with one I'll let you know.

I think I saw something above about "how will we know each other"...correct me if I'm wrong. Most of us here know each other by our screen names...I am sure someone else has thought of this before, but would those sticker name-tags with our FFF screen names on them be a good idea? Again, this may have been done before, or already discussed, I am just typing out loud...don't mind me if I am stating the obvious!

Holding until you get back, Captain.

No, it's a good idea. Last year Hazufel(who is a JOY) made us all namebadges. I still have mine and will be wearing it, unless someone makes new and improved (though, can you improve upon perfection? They were really shiny name badges!) ones for this year. Trust me, you won't have any problems finding the Browncoats. Truuust me. The place was like a sea of orange hats last year.

Plus, those incredibly long lines for panels made nice opportunities to meet people.

Shiny!
It's not the finding of the Browncoats that would be a problem, it would have been matching faces to screen names for me.
I am just looking forward to meeting everyone I have chatted with here in person, and wanted to be sure there would have been a way to id ourselves. 'Cause, see, there will be so many Browncoats there that we will be hard to tell apart! (ok, maybe wishful thinking!)

Holding until you get back, Captain.

Hey I know! Tristan, whenever you're just standing or waiting around you should do your Irish jig, and that way I'll know who you are (and a few others who know what I'm talking about) I'll see you dancing and say to myself "that has to be Tristan! Who else would be doing an Irish jig in the middle of the room?" Ah, what a great plan...

Tristan,
When you pickup your badge you can have them put your Nickname on it. Many use their screennames. Also Fireflygal has shiny lanyards for holding said name badges, they say BROWNCOAT FIREFLY SERENITY all over them, makes us easy to spot. Jayne Hats also work. My yellow BROWNCOAT bag also useful. Blue Sun t-shirts, good bet that's a browncoat. There'll be an acre of us.
Fan Table is the place to meet people if you're completely lost.

I can't track who's in charge of the fan table - wickedwren, are you one of the folks? (Sorry, gang. Long, weird week, and relatives in town.)
