Hello dashcon please help! The upper management of the hotel is threatening to shut down dashcon, unless we give them $17,000 by 10 p.m. Central Time tonight. Please go to DashCon.org and click the Donate button and give her anything you can. Unless we get this by tonight everything is cancelled. We suspect it’s due to the fact that upper management doesn’t like the people at the con.
Please please donate what you can!!!
Thank you, we have an hour!

Well actually the deadline ended 10 minutes ago but by god this convention will go unabated maybe!

Check the #dashcon tag for deets

People were standing in the lobby chanting and apparently singing Carry On My Wayward Son even though it appears this entire thing was (surprise) a scam

reports from the front lines: dozens literally shaking, many sobbing, some faintings

quote:

You guys who are saying that the save DashCon thing was a scam…
Literally shut the gently caress up.
I’ve been paying attention to and have been involved in this thing since the beginning. You didn’t see Cain break down and run out of one of his panels because of the news he got regarding it. Roxanne was in meetings all day because of it. Meg looked really stressed out… Even before news broke.
These are some dedicated people, to even have this happening… it’s horrible. Upper management probably received complaints because they’re hiding weddings here. Big deal; attendees aren’t going to crash them.
This was literally the biggest gently caress you to a company that was already paid once, who didn’t like the idea of being connected to a social media site they didn’t look at before approving a convention for, and that wanted to poo poo on…well, everybody.
When Cain came up to the stage, when Meg came up to the stage…. I was right in front of them. My heart has been dedicated to these people, this convention, so long that I knew exactly how they felt… I cried. I had to leave the room and have my little sobs of happiness in my room.
DashCon and those who believe in it are amazing and are destined for greater things.
Those who doubt them… I’m ashamed to be I the same blogging platform as you
