Okay -- SpoCon is less than 40 days away and it's now time to fill up the "Electronic Gaming" room. Just ask Howie, it's a BIG room!
Our goal is 30 PCs, and 2 or three consoles' running, and we would like to have a total of 3 projectors (2 on the LAN, and 1 on the PCs.) If we manage to have more than 30 PCs, we may use the overflow for MMOs.. 'maybe'.
If you donate your PC for SpoCon, your membership will be only $25 for the entire convention!
If you want to donate your PC for the LAN gaming (I need 30 total for this year) I would greatly appreciate it. We will have a lot of space for PCs and several consoles set up. If you want to donate your rig, I will need the system either Thursday night (July 31st) or before NOON on Friday August 2nd (the day the Con Starts).
If you are willing to donate your rig, I will need you to PM me that you are willing to donate along with the specs of your system: CPU, Amount of RAM, Vid Card, OS
I will then PM you back with how to register for SpoCon, and then how to pay so you only will pay the $25 instead of the $35.
Before the Con, we will need you set up a "SpoCon" account that has access to your personal files denied and NO PASSWORD.
At the Con, we will need the password to your admin account to make sure that we can get everything running okay.
We also need some volunteers to monitor the LAN room for a few hours at a time during the Con. The "LAN and Console" gaming will be running from Noon Friday until Noon Sunday non-stop, so we need coverage for 48 hour  -- include in your PM if you would like to help out as we'll be monitoring PCs AND consoles. This info is all right here in the forums . |

HOLY AWESOME SAUCE!!!!!
Thanks to some generous donations, SpoCon has announced a very Special Guest: John Dalmas! 
(John Dalmas and C'thulu Bob - Bob runs MisCon )
For those not in the know... "Onkle Sven" lived in Spokane for many years, and is a wonder Sci-Fi author. His books really make you think, and have some very deep stories. He has been involved in the Con scene for many years as and editor, and has encouraged many authors to get published, and has also discourged others to find a different line of work. I am proud to call him a friend and am looking forward to seeing him again. Besides a great author, he is an amazing person as well.
For more information on John, pop on over to his Website .
