Dearest Steampunks,

Recently, I came across a website for Steamcon, a Steampunk convention that is supposed to take place in Seattle, Washington from October 23 to October 25 of this year. I was hoping to learn if anyone else here (in this oasis of steam) had heard of this convention. I was also hoping to gauge the interest in this convention to determine whether or not I should try to scrounge up the cash to go.

If you haven't heard about it and would like to learn more, you may want to visit the official site.

If I've posted this thread in the wrong forum, I apologize.

Sincerely,

Ellorie

Since I'm pretty closely based in Oregon, I just might give the event a go 3nodding

*grumble*

Maybe I should start a con... something like "Dallasteam," or perhaps something a bit more creative. All the fun stuff happens in the east coast/west coast states. crying

I know how you feel. Fortunately, I'm close enough to Chicago to find some good things every now and then.

我就是你们女生最讨厌的那种人
I'm the kind of guy you girls hate most.
Don't go crazy and quote my post style. Quoting what I say is fine, but doing my post style is kind of nuts.


    Why I am so broke.

    I'd enjoy going.


I hope you have fun erasing my post style, though.
John Stalvern waited. The lights above him blinked and sparked out of the air. There were demons in the base. He didn't see them, but had expected them now for years. His warnings to Cernel Joson were not listenend to and now it was too late. Far too late for now, anyway. John was a space marine for fourteen years. When he was young he watched the spaceships and he said to dad "I want to be on the ships daddy." Dad said "No! You will BE KILL BY DEMONS" There was a time when he believed him. Then as he got oldered he stopped. But now in the space station base of the UAC he knew there were demons. "This is Joson" the radio crackered. "You must fight the demons!" So John gotted his palsma rifle and blew up the wall. "HE GOING TO KILL US" said the demons "I will shoot at him" said the cyberdemon and he fired the rocket missiles. John plasmaed at him and tried to blew him up. But then the ceiling fell and they were trapped and not able to kill. "No! I must kill the demons" he shouted The radio said "No, John. You are the demons" And then John was a zombie.

对了就是那个臭男孩
That's right, that jerk.
The reason I did this? The more you type, the more gold you get. See, I'm really a jerk. Facts for the lulz of having them: Every year about 98% of the atoms in your body are replaced. The human heart creates enough pressure to squirt blood 30 feet (9 m). Sharks apparently are the only animals that never get sick. As far as is known, they are immune to every known disease including cancer. Your nails grow faster in outer space, probably because of the lack of gravity. Bruce Lee was so fast that they had to slow down his films for you to see his moves. In Klamath Falls, Oregon, it is illegal to kick the heads off snakes. In Florida, it is illegal to sing in a public place while attired in a swimsuit. When snakes are born with two heads, they fight each other for food. Canadian researchers have found that Einstein's brain was 15% wider than normal. 1 in 5,000 north Atlantic lobsters are born bright blue. "I am." is the shortest complete sentence in the English language. Lastly, honey is the only food that doesn't spoil.

I'm in nor cal, but if I can get a job soon and save enough money then I'll be going for sure!

I don't plan on going. I'm n the east coast, have no job, and I never really been to any cons before. Have fun, those of you who plan on going.

I'm going to cross my fingers and hope I am in the financial situation to go out there.

If i werent stuck in the southeast sweatdrop I'd love to go... Unfortunately the only con I've been able to attend is a free one in Atlanta called Momocon. Its supposedly the largest free con, that supports not only anime but steampunkish type things as well... I went this year and it was alright. I think next year it will more than likely be just my wife and myself going... xd
