Project asc!! jer_ 11 Mar 2010, 11:17 am
A few weeks ago, I posted about stopping sexual harassment at conventions. Today, my friend Carrie is picking up the ball and running with it in what she is tentatively calling Project asc!!, a formalized effort to halt this growing problem.

Penguicon 2010 Hotel Notes...2 Months Out... jer_ 3 Mar 2010, 3:55 pm
Okay, some general notes related to the hotel (sorry if you caught this in email...but...I'm spammy today)
-jer, your hotel lackey
- The hotel is over 2/3rds booked. We had about 100 rooms left two days ago. Now, traditionally, between 1 and 2 months out is when we START to fill the hotel up...so that means that the block is going to probably fill ridiculously quickly. Last year, the hotel went from 70 rooms left to 0 rooms left in about 2 weeks. Much crying ensued about the lack of warning. This is your warning. This is your warning. THIS IS YOUR WARNING. Book a room if you need one. Click here for hotel registration information If you know of people who are wanting to book a room, please pass this warning on to them. Use bold..trust me..or you'll hear about it for weeks.
- Remember, there is a 1 week cancellation window. One week. This means that if you cancel your reservation less than one week out, you will not get your money back. I repeat, if you cancel under a week out, you WILL NOT BE REFUNDED YOUR MONEY. This doesn't mean ldquo;you won't be refunded unless you email Jer and ask” or “you won't be refunded unless you email Jer and demand”…it means “you won't be refunded.” Sorry. Please cancel at least a week out if you wish to get refunded money.
- I have posted the various agreements we have with the hotel pertaining to the convention on the wiki (click here to visit), so if you have questions, look there first. If that doesn't answer your question, please email me at hotel{at}penguicon and I'll be pleased to help you out (and please, don't forget that it is .org not .com…and that the name of the con is penguicon, not penguincon…common mistakes)
- If you have special room request, plan on throwing a party, or what have you, please email me all of the details at hotel{at}penguicon (same caveats as above) so that I can get you situated.
- Finally…holy crap, we have a con in less than 2 months! It's crazy! If I don't see you between now and then, you know why :)
