GREAT NEWS Fanime cospeeps!
After heading up the gatherings list for the last three years I had a couple of things I wanted to make better this year. One of my ideas was to have some sort of a risor platform for the gatherings. This is so that the people in the back can be seen much easier in the pictures of the groups. It may not seem like much, but coming from a coach I know what a difference it can make in team pictures. 6" added to the back row can make the difference in seeing just eyes or seeing the whole head and some chest.

My understanding, at this moment, is that there will be a risor platform on the 1st floor of the convention center lobby. This means that the gatherings that are inside there can use this small platform to get everyone in the photo. It will be located next to the stairs on the left hand side. I only ask that everyone respect this area and not use it as a place to sit or sleep. It will be there for those group photos. If you do not have an official gathering and you and your friends wish to use it respectfully for group photos, then there is no issue with that. Just know that all officially scheduled gatherings take precedence on usage of the platform.

2 days.... can you handle it?

BTW... If you want your gathering to appear on the 7 boards around con then have complete info posted here by midnight tonight, the 23rd, and I will add it to the final lists for around con. Thursday I leave and there will be no more updates... sorry.

Thank you everyone for posting and giving me your feed back for this last year. Be sure and come back here and give me your input after con!

I'm hoping to get the time for the Rurouni Kenshin gathering moved to 11:30, same day, same place, as soon as I get a response from the others I will let you know (if it's not to late :shock: )
The sun was raising up above the high
and dense entangled spider's web.  The dew
was dripping from the silky strings and down
through canopy to underbrush.  It splashed
the puddle making one more fountain spring.

I have a replay, and they say it's OK to move it to 11:30, same day same place.

. . . are we to late? :cry:

I was considering changing your info, but I felt that it would be in the gatherings best interest to keep your original plan due to the fact that 5,000 pocket versions of the info have the original time and you could miss people if it was changed. Also, many photographers have printed out their copy of the list and if your gathering is on their list they won't realize that the gathering was changed. I hope you understand why I didn't change your info. Please let your gathering know.

I realized that I didn't post this info here on the Fanime forums:
