Will there be one this year?
Are we gonna keep this going?
Is it just me, or was there not the same spark this past one as there were in previous years?

Alright, I know I've done a shitty job keeping up to date on this stuff (as I've been desperately wanting to develop a more organised approach to the show this time around, considering the surprise success form last year)... but I want to try and at least have a full-group meeting before the con.
My days off next week are Wednesday and Saturday, and I work morning-afternoon on Thursday, so that night is also open for me. Let me know what will work for everyone.
What I hope for us to accomplish is at least discuss what we want to do, what we think needs improving (aside from much more advance preparation)... also, critique the positive and negative qualities that each person brings to the show, and what quick tips can be included to improve things.
I will prepare an advance list of a couple dozen games, and we can vote on what we want to do, maybe try including new things.
Ultimately, I want to create something a little mroe streamlined to cut down on the chaos... although giving the impression and intensity of chaos is always something worth having.
Over the course of this week, I'm going to try leaving little "mini-essays" on mental focus tips and performance methods that promote a unified mindset.
If there is anything anyone wants to address, you should all have posting access to create new posts in this community (email me at loki.sataere @ gmail . com if you aren't sure how to do this)
For now, I want ye guys to start getting into a comedy mindset, and start building up. Watch your fave comedy TV shows or movies, read comic strips/webcomics, listen to stand-up comedians, watch "Whose Line is it Anyway?"... anything that will help keep you "zoned".
Questions and complaints are duly welcome.
And again, sorry for being such a lazy douche about all this.

Alright guys, I'm sorry this may seem very sudden, but do y'all think we can arrange something for this Friday or Saturday? At the very least, just sit around and trade ideas, divvy up pre-con duties, based on capability, and anything else.

First order of business: Let's start making arrangments for practice before A-Kon this year. I want to get started by the middle of this month (April).
