Seattle Creation Con

elglass

I've just discovered there is a Creation Star Trek Convention in the Seattle Area in December. Will there be a panel for STO there? If not can there be? Pleasepleasepleaseplease!

Also, can you not have a Dilithium Weekend that weekend? I missed the last one due to San Diego Comic Con, I'd love to be able to really make better use of my mining claims.

There is info for the San Francisco convention listed, Kate Mulgrew and Robert Picardo and few others.

I wonder if perhaps the Seattle one isn't set in stone yet and might move to a different date, or just get cancelled entirely.

There are many other conventions. We usually do not personally attend them. (The exception being San Francisco, because it's close)
I don't think there will be a STO panel at any of them other than STLV.

However, you can usually still get a holo leeta for attending, just let Smirk know.

They still have Cremation.....I mean, Creation Cons?

The ones I went to in the late 80's were total garbage. All it consisted of was a tiny dealer's room and a big ballroom where they ran trailers on a cheap 8mm projector (with the PA mic leaning up against the projector's speaker, so it picked up the projector's machinery noises and amplified them as well) to upcoming movies, and then one Q&A with the SINGLE guest of honor picked for that weekend.

Creation is notorious for spending as little as possible on convention infrastructure yet demanding as much money from the rubes as possible.

Personally, I'm planning to attend something far, far more worthy:

LOL, I grew up around the So Cal sci fi/fantasy con scene. They were 16mm projectors there, and I can still remember watching classic episodes, all scratchy in those little on site theaters. I can remember going to one Deforest Kelly's last conventions in the 90's. As a kid they were a lot more fun than as an adult, kids used to get away with all manner of things without paying the extras they charged for, at least I did as a child.

I attend 3 or 4 cons every year, Norwescon, SDCC, Emerald City Comic Con, and others! Am REALLY looking forward to World Con when it goes to Spokane next year!

My girl will be attending the Creation Con in Seattle, the last one was a good time, with Karaoke hosted by some of the guests. I daresay I might be getting a room just for a party!

wow that Creep co....er Creation Con sounded big to the ones we had in NC, For us the Dealer room was the big ballroom area, only 2 Vendors showed up for it.

No Trailers, No Q&A, And only about 30 people showed up. At least I got to spend the Day Talking to Tim Russ, My make-up effects win two categories in the contest, and I got into the Newspaper.
