The discussion of the Alien series of films and the props used in them is the aim, but if it's got Big Bugs and Big Guns, then they are welcome too!

Midnight on Sat? I will be obviously intoxicated and making a nuisance of myself. Which is why we need to Sarge to work the door. I nominate Kevin.

Volunteer to help at the Spat Cave NC-17 contest.

The NC-17 competition is for costumes that are barely-there. The contest takes much effort to be safe, including checking IDs at the door, no pictures allowed, and refusal of anyone who is obviously intoxicated and making a nuisance of themselves. If it sounds like your thing and you're a night owl, please volunteer to help. We need wranglers backstage and runners as well as door guards/id checkers and room setup help. Volunteers will get a good seat near the front ((a bonus if you want to see this contest, last year we had a line of over 800 people when we opened the doors to the contest, and we turned away at least 500 people)), and backstage volunteers will have the option to give their seat to a friend. Location for this is also TBD, but it should start around 11:30 on Saturday, and extend until it's over sometime early Sunday morning.



If you're up for either of these, here's the

Well my schedule is a bit tight on Sat evening... but I'll do it for the team.

As long as I'm on the inside of the friggin' door when it closes! ;) :P



OK all joking aside (and I know this might sound nuts)- I don't know what I'll be doing Saturday night (most likely I'll just be hanging out in the Hyatt; maybe having a drink for a change ;) )- so I can't say I can commit to voluteering. :(

DC LJ? What's that?

And I thought DragonCon Security was working the door again like last year?

I don't know about you Marines working the door, you'll let all your friends in, even if they didn't wait on line, and then the whole contest will be ruined with too many people, and then I have to kill you all.

Also, I need someone on the door who can read, since I'll have a list of VIPs.

Would it be possible to get us in where we can get a good seat?? I was in...the very back of the room where the ladies never came back to!!!....and YES, I would be more than happy to volunteer, pass out flyers throughout the con, check IDs, help the girls get in costume, etc.

First come, first serve.

I may be selling first row seats for the show, and using that money to add to the grand prize, but we'll figure that out down there.

Thanks!

Live Journal has a Dragon con only thread to plan events, coordinate resources, and just chat about DC. Most of the DC staff are on and use it to share info and updates. When I saw the Spat cave post I posted it here right away.
We are your favorite male groupies, right Spat?
I would have volunteered but I will be coming from the Pirate party whenever the rum's gone, arrgggg!!!!!!

Well, Joe, you can tell everyone on that list from me, that volunteer security will not be getting backstage, and the front row seats are already reserved. So anyone offering any perks for this contest who is not me, is just speculating.

Sorry.
