[Kalidor]

I didn't see a thread about this since the forums reboot so I thought I'd start one.

They just announced they'll be taking reservations for vendors and exhibitors.

BotCon 2022 being held in an exciting, major US city convenient to the Midwest and Southern regions by car and everywhere else by air

Sure sounds like Kentucky going by that…

It does. We'll see if that's correct.

 

[Kalidor]

Nuh uh. They said "Exciting" so I ruled Kentucky out automatically.

If it's within easy driving distance and the hotel's not too expensive, I'll be on it like a cheap suit.

I'm still waiting for my Wasp Raider. If they don't get it to me by the end of this month I'm opening a dispute with Paypal. NO MORE DELAYS!

still linked to a racist antivaxxer?

I fear I won't be able to make it to this one. Would really like to go, though.

A half hour away from my daughter, whom I should be visiting in the beginning of August, because my job doesn't allow us to take the last week of August off.

So close...yet so far.

Looks like Agabyss are organizing the convention:

I might go if the one guy’s not part

I might go if the one guy’s not part

We might go around the bend on what it means to be a part, but without even asking who "the one guy" is (I think we all know), it should be assumed that he is (by most interpretations of the phrase).

 

[Sabrblade]

Frankly, I'm not completely sure that he is anymore.

He seemed like he was ready to move on and wanting to focus more on the future plans of his own company after last year's final RoboCon.

If anything, future BotCon merchandise may still be distributed via his company's website as a licensee, but not much else.

 

[ZacWilliam1]

If he wasn't. I think the Con would say so, just because him being involved brought them so much negative reaction and fan hate.

-ZacWilliam, why would you keep quiet about dumping the big thing that's making folk dump you?

I've had the strong impression that he's still doing PR, but you could be right. He might finally have decided that he's fighting a losing battle trying to defend himself ad infinitum.

That said, even the little bit you mention at the end is along the lines of why I said "we might (debate) what it means to be a part."

 

[Galvaplexia]

Late to the party, but I don’t know who said butthole is; can someone DM me who he is so I know to avoid him? Thx!

 

[Agent X]

I literally sometimes go to Nashville JUST to shop for toys/game/comics/stuff with friends, so this is some serious consideration.
