AC idea genius by Sparf!
11 years ago
Ok I saw Sparf come across my twitter feed with the idea of AC having FS lockers available.
Then I thought wow, how could this work?
1) The con needs a large room next to a FS lounge.
2) The con could staff it like they do for the art show, where you check your bag.
3) There could be curtained changing areas.
OK so here's the risky facts:
1) FS people would be storing at their own risk.
2) Does the con charge a fee for this? Yes.
3) Who staffs it? Ideally FS people but you still need con staff to supervise.
Etc..

Fizz is right though, there WILL be cases of people's stuff going missing every year, once they implement the service, so they'll need to consider how to deal with that when it happens. Still, if they intend to continue growing, they'll have to do something like this eventually, and if there's a predictable loss rate, then it just becomes a normal convention expense...
