I know I'm hideously late in replying. First of all, let me say I'm proud to hear YCon did so well this year in a lot of ways. YCon gets better and better each year. You have TOP NOTCH staff.
Second of all, I meant no disrespect to the Cafe people. Your idea looks terribly fun and I hope it was a success. I'm looking for con reports about it as we speak.
In short, I meant no disrespect to anyone nor was I trying to put the poor Cafe people in the middle of this argument or use them as a weapon. My apologies for very much appearing to do so.
I still do not feel this issue has been adequately resolved. I personally find it a bit sad and almost insulting to be told, "Nobody wants to pay for you so you're not welcome." simply because I don't have the right plumbing. The one point that has been hammered out again and again has made it through, though.
Whether I think I'm right or wrong, I know this isn't my con, and I'm sorry if I seemed rude about it. I simply feel strongly about the issue.
Seeing as someone poked me with the idea of, "You think you can do better? You come do it." What if I DID ask to organize a "Bishie Auction" but stipulated it could include crossplay? What would people say to that? This is not me putting a bid in to DO so so much as me asking if it would be a waste of time to try. Living on the east coast, me travelling to YCon just to pitch a fit or tantrum is unreasonable. (And more so even if I lived locally!) Coming to enjoy what's so GREAT about YCon, however, is every bit worth it. If I can add to that with an enjoyable event, that makes it all the sweeter.
