Wiscon 2014: party?

[frotz]

We had what I thought was a fun (if sometimes somewhat disjointed) panel about Glitch at Wiscon last night. (Writeup separately forthcoming!) The idea I was left with, though, after we spent at least as long talking in the lobby afterwards: how about having a party?

Anyone else interested? If you have experience at hosting con parties, do you think it'll fly? Cooking and Cocktail Crafting anyone?

This, though, leads to the really important quesiton: WHICH PARTY PACK?

As I wrote in the previous thread: assuming I make it out next year to my first Wiscon as I plan, I'm very interested in helping organize this.

OMG, YES, GLITCH PARTY NEXT YEAR PLZ.

Hmm, each corner of the room decorated as a different party pack??

That would be really fun!!

I'd love to help! I've helped run parties a few times. I'm good at planning and setup; I'm not awake late enough for teardown, unfortunately.

I think it'd fly. It'll be a long time since the game has been around by then, but I think the themes one would use at a party would be pretty Wiscon friendly and understandable to other party goers. Also, a fun theme and maybe a good way to help those of us who aren't super social enter the party ("come! make a thing!").

Lots of opportunities for neat drinks (including nonalcoholic ones; I always like to have something interesting for nondrinkers) and crafts/activities. Make an Emotional Bear? Decorate the party room with goofy paper trees and scenery during the party?

Can't think of Cookery items that would be easy to make during the party, but probably someone else can...

Also I will post panel notes soon; hopefully tomorrow. Tooooo tiiiiired. But I have gained lots of IMG from Wiscon.

Hey guys, this is Lilith... so good to meet you all! And YES YES YES I'd love to see a Glitch party next year... I'd be happy to help out any way I can.

Off to write up my take on the panel...
