Condition Wasteland!
12 years ago
Hey all, me again ^^
This year for the first weekend of august was the 4th annual London Furry Con! This year the theme was ‘wasteland‘ because, if you haven‘t been following the storyline (which I‘d recomment, they have videos on youtube and some of them are vastly entertaining =3), a bomb went off and turned the world into a wasteland of nuclear fallout (dun, dun, dun...)
I again returned as convention staff this year and even got a little more involved by hosting a few panels and building something neat this year to offer up to the volunteer auction. I‘m glad I did because this year was a hoot and a half of fun ^^. Somehow the con heads had managed to find a company that printed off custom bottlecaps and so they divided themselves into 8 factions with their own crest and corresponding bottlecap that they‘d distribute to people for doing special tasks for them/going to certain panels/events. There were 8 faction caps and a convention cap for a total of 9 and I worked hard to make sure I could collect them all because, well... come on... they‘re shiney... and collectable ._.
Anyways... this year I again participated in the nerf tournament as a ‘spare runner‘, filling in for the teams who were short people. It was a lot of fun but it was a LOT of running and dodging... by the next day my legs were really sore even though I‘d only competed in 2 rounds. Which was just dandy ‘cause I ran another 2 rounds the next day because I ended up running for another team in the finals, too. We won, yay ^^. I get a special title on my badge next year for it =3
I also hosted two panels. One was the yu-gi-oh tournament which had a decent turnout this year; nothing special, but nothing laughable either, it was decent =3. Also, because I‘m terrified of them, I ran the ‘zombie survival panel‘ to try and help people think about it outside of what they‘ve been shown in standard media. I was actually complimented on it once or twice so I might do it again next year.
All in all I had a fantastic time this year ^^ it was just constant good times all through the weekend and I‘m really glad to be able to be a part of something thats so special and so much fun =3. Especially the end of the convention during the closing ceremonies when they revealed the theme for next years convention ^^ if you‘re interested you should check the condition site =3 I‘m on my phone right now so I can‘t post the link but once I get on my laptop later I can post one here in the journal ^^
