WHY?” If you haven’t seen the latest from Hollywood, you won’t want to miss it.</p>
<h2>TIME IS RUNNING OUT</h2>
<p>The Con’s almost over, and you’ve found tons of convention stuff to complain about, haven’t you? Speak up! No, really, we want to know. We've put a Comment Card in your registration packet for just that reason. Good stuff, bad stuff, neat ideas; send us all of it.We won’t even make you find the one in your registration packet and turn it over to see all our other methods of contact; after Saturday night, we know how hard that could be. So we are tickled to present them here:</p>
<ul>
<li>Return filled out cards to the boxes at the Information table or the Con Office</li>

<h2>WELCOME TO NORWESCON 32</h2>
<p><strong>by Becky Citrak, Chair</strong></p>
<p>It's here! Tah-dah! I'm so excited to welcome you all to Norwescon 32.</p>
<p>Some things to put on your must-see list:</p>
<p>Guests of Honor! Check your pocket program for the time and place they will be making their appearances. Don't forget the autograph sessions!</p>
<p>Casino and dance: Thursday night! This was loads of fun last year and I think will be better this year.</p>
<p>P.K. Dick Awards: Join us Friday evening for delightful desserts and readings from this year's nominated books. The winner will be announced at the ceremony.</p>
<p>Masquerade: Beautiful costumes, fun skits, and movie previews at halftime.</p>
<p>Amtgard: the Sunday event in Grand Ballroom 3. Come watch people hit each other!</p>
<p>Programming: All weekend long, we will have fabulous programming by interesting people. Hands-on or discussion, we will learn what's going on in the worlds of fandom, science, art, and more.</p>
<p>This is going to be great!</p>
<h2>WE'RE EVERYTHING THAT'S WRONG WITH JOURNALISM</h2>
<p><strong>Distractions Best Forgot</strong></p>
<p>We want your lies.</p>
<p>We want your lies, your filth, your rumors, your innuendo and out your other, your trivialities, and your base distractions.</p>
<p>We want your shocking pictures, your vicious scandals, your unsourced spin and bullshit. We want your parties, we want your b00zahol (we <em>really</em> want your b00zahol), we want your severely paranoid ravings, your crazies, your barely-repressed insanity.</p>
<p>And most of all, we want your <strong>DIRTY. LITTLE. SECRETS.</strong></p>
<p>Because that's what we are. We're all the things best left buried. We're all the things you'd rather forget. We're the official convention newsletter of Norwescon 32, the official press — what a joke! — and sure, we'll have the awards, the programme changes, and all that, and most of those will actually be real.</p>
<p>But we're proud — proud to be <em>part of the problem</em>, and we will play that role to the depths of our rotten little hearts.</p>
<p>Come help. Give us your slander, your overheards, your news, your embarrassing or awesome photographs — <em>particularly</em> your photographs we need to fill page 3 — and give them to us by 10pm each day. We have submissions boxes at information, registration, and hospitality. We'll be on the net by around 3am, and on paper in the mornings around 9. We'll have the large type edition at Information, and other copies pretty much anywhere you look.</p>
<p>So c'mon. Bring it, if you can. Give yourself something to regret later. Or don't you have the <em>stomach</em> for it?</p>
<h2>WELCOME TO NORWESCON 32</h2>
<p><strong>by Hedda, the Cranky</strong></p>
<p>Welcome to Norwescon 32! Let me explain — no, wait, there is too much. Let me sum up:</p>
<p>Don't bleed over the hotel unless you clean it up. That Luminal shit picks up <em>everything</em>.</p>
<p>Sleep five hours a day, eat two meals a day, and take a frikkin' shower every day or I WILL KILL YOU.</p>
<p>Don't touch unless you ask first. No means no!</p>
<p>If your friends jumped off a cliff, would you do it too? Yes? Good, they've already jumped. They're waiting for you at the bottom. MOVE, SOLDIER!</p>
<p>Common sense is not common. If you question an activity, ask someone with a badge. They probably have the good sense to arrest you.</p>
<p>Treat others the way you wish to be treated — sanded to a fine sheen, stained, and coated in Varathane. But ask first if you think they might not like it.</p>
<p>While we see the hotel as a place to pay and to recreate, the mundanes see it as a place to sleep and recuperate. Share the space, not the therapy sessions.</p>
<p>If you are going on the hot tub or pool, get clean first. Seriously, please. The Saturday Soup Bubbles are not soap and nobody, and I mean nobody, needs your <em>eu de fan skank</em> — or anything else — on them.</p>
<p>Don't want strangers having sex in your room? We don't want you having sex in our hot tub. TUBBS IS CLOSED DUE TO OH JESUS NO.</p>
<p>"You got your convention security in our room party!" "Yeah, well, you got your stupid in our face."</p>
<p>Wear sunscreen. But not in the hot tub.</p>
<p>If you don't want people to mock your naked ass, don't expose it. Also, that sunscreen thing.</p>
<p>Once is funny, twice is annoying, three times is unforgivable. Four times starts to head back towards funny again. Five times? Eh, you tore it. Six? Pathos. Seven? SEVEN! C'MON, SEVEN! BABY NEEDS A NEW PAIR OF SHOES!</p>
<p>Looking forward to writing about people who piss me off with their natural 11s,</p>
<p>Hedda, the Cranky</p>
<h2>GET READY TO MATCH THE FANNISH STARS</h2>
<p><strong>Preferably with a real match</strong></p>
<p>You could win a membership to next year's Norwescon, books worth more than $100, and other great prizes at <em>Match Game SF</em>, the SF&F-themed re-creation of the classic 70s game show on Friday night!</p>
<p>Unlike other contests where you need to know your trivia, <em>Match Game</em> is simple and easy to play. Contestants will be randomly selected from the audience to match wits against our panel, as they guess how the panelists completed simple fill-in-the-blank propositions such as, "Godzilla said, 'The reason I only attack Japanese cities is that Americans give me _____.'" All contestants drawn from the audience are guaranteed to win a prize, including the famous Lovely Parting Gift. The fun starts Friday at 9pm, in Evergreen 4.</p>
<h2>OVERHEARD</h2>
<p>"Gina wants a My Little Pony named Rainbow Death."</p>
<p>"I'm full of hate and death and codeine."</p>
<h2>KRYTEN'S CAMERA CORNER</h2>
<p>TEMPTING TIDBITS FOR THE DISCRIMINATING MECHANOID</p>
<p>OH HO HO, WHAT DO WE HAVE HERE? <br />"Look at this beauty! A <em>double-loader</em>! Isn't she just a marvel?"</p>
<p>Vitals: 4.0ft, 14 cycle <br />Debut: Today! <br />Astrological sign: Pisces/Airies <br />Power requirements: 110v/60hz</p>
<p>"And <em>check out those curves</em>!"</p>
<p>"That, that, that's not mine! I don't know where that came from and I assure you I don't swing that way! I'll have to have a word with that editor!"</p>
<h2>PROGRAMME CHANGES WILL GO HERE</h2>
<p><strong>...once we have any.</strong></p>
<p>Nothin' yet. At least, not that they're telling <em>us</em>. Watch this space! No, I mean this one: > < Page 4, every day!</p>
<h2>DIRTY LITTLE SECRETS</h2>
<p>...is the daily newsletter of Norwescon 32, and we're doing our best to invent new ways to be wrong about journalism. Your inadequately-supervised editor is R'ykandar (Dara) Korra'ti, Cynic-in-Chief. Submissions are due by 10pm for the next morning's print edition, or later if you find us in person inking up our keyboards for the night. And don't push us, man, we're not drunk enough for that shit. COPY!</p>

<h2>"LIFER" CABAL EXPOSED</h2>
<p><strong>along with its platform of doom!</strong></p>
<p>Confidential sources alert <strong>DIRTY. LITTLE. SECRETS.</strong> to a secret cabal of unimpeachable "lifetime" members of Norwescon!</p>
<p>[Photo] Cabal members in secret conference!</p>
<p>The secret platform reportedly consists of reduced hotel parking, mandatory shoe registration, all-meat hospitality, children in cages, service animals as volunteer snacks, all-talk-radio dances, and intentional cross-programming of all top-rated panels.

<h2>THURSDAY BURBLINGS FROM THE CHAIR</h2>
<p><strong>By Becky Citrak, Chair</strong></p>
<p>What a great day this was!</p>
<p>Registration — both Convention and hotel — was busy all day. There were a couple of glitches her and there, but by and large it went well.</p>
<p>Programming was well-attended, as was the Small Press Party. Opening Ceremonies was wonderful! Who knew Dr. Seuss could be so much fun?</p>
<p>Friday will be interesting. Check out the Norwescon Town Meeting at 11:00 a.m. in Evergreen 2. This is your opportunity to make suggestions and throw out ideas for Norwescons to come. The masquerade (Saturday) is always a hit and programming has something for everyone.</p>
<p>Have a great day!</p>
<p><strong>5—2—1</strong></p>
<h2>ATTENTION TOBY AND DAVE</h2>
<p>Are you wandering, lost without your meticulous multi-page book lists? Lady Jaynes books I n the dealers room is holding them for you.</p>
<h2>PERSONALITIES RISE FROM THE DEAD</h2>
<p>On Saturday the midnight movie will be the site of much rejoicing as the Dead Gentlemen come back to life (a few of them anyway) and grace us with their presence in Evergreen 1 & 2.</p>
<h2>HOCKEY — THE GAME WHERE YOU GET TO BEAT EACH OTHER WITH STICKS</h2>
<p>Oh wait, isn't' that the Sunday Special Event in Grand Three. This bit is really only interesting to those of us who like the Vancouver Cannuks so keep reading if you care...</p>
<p>The Cannuks beat the LA Kings 1 to nothing at a packed GM Place last night. The only goal coming from Ryan Kasler, with the assists from Mat Sundin and Alex Edler at 5:49 in the second. Roberto Luongo stopped 20 LA shot son the Canucks' net. The team will next play the Avalanche in Denver on Sunday.</p>
<h2>WHAT WILL THE NEIGHBORS THINK?</h2>
<p>Remember even though it seems like we're the only guests at this hotel ther are others staying here who may well be dismayed by what they see or hear. Keep it legal people or keep it out of sight!</p>
<h2>CONTENT NEEDED!!!!!!!</h2>
<p>There's a good chance that this space would be better utilized by something that you pull out of your head instead of something that I pull out of my....ear. Find a nifty little box and give us all your dirty little secrets.</p>
<p>We accept party reports too!</p>
<h2>MONSTER MASH</h2>
<p>Have you ever wanted your very own Owlbear? Come and be a mad scientist for the afternoon. Join in the ripping and stitching of plush toys. Now with no fee! This event is not suitable for children, especially mine as you'll be destroying a number of their toys.</p>
<h2>OVERHEARD</h2>
<p>"Let's kill him and take his toy."</p>
<p>"Do you need to get under the table?"</p>
<h2>BATTLE OF THE SMART PHONES</h2>
<p><strong>Geeks-R-Us is proud to present the ultimate battle of the smart phones.</strong></p>
<p>[Blackberry photo] <strong>vs.</strong> [iPhone photo]</p>
<p>Battle to be held on Saturday, April 11th in Seaports Lounge at Norwescon 32. owners will showcase their new toys and compete to see who can take the most pictures of local color and post them to the Web in a 10 minute period. To compete humans must own an Internet connected telephone with a camera and data plan.</p>
<p>Geeks-R-Us CEO Graham Bell says, "Well it's not rocket science. but with the newest toys on the market it might well be the next best thing."</p>
<p><strong>I'm smarter than you are!</strong></p>

<h2>ARROOOOOOOOO!</h2>

<p>Okay! International Bank of Timbuktu fuckin' owns all of you. The fact you were not there makes you a very sad person indeed. Ummmm... Oh yeah! Ordering drinks by colour, which in retrospect was <em>awesome</em>, rock band, <em>drunken</em> rock band, annnnnnnnnnnd titty-ante poker! And they had no-fail mode on adn drunk nerds were like "I'M IN A BAANNNNNNNNNNNNND" and "YEAH LOVE THIS SONG" so the whole fuckin' party would flop back and forth from room to room, goin' AWESOME SONG / TITTIES! / AWESOME SONG / TITTIES! Everywhere else fuckin' sucked, y'all need to step it up. they're open again tomorrow. If you aren't there, this convention sucked for you.</p>
<p>Then we went to Biohazard, right, and we went to go up to the bar, and this guy was like, <strong>THERE'S A LINE</strong>. And I was there for 15 minutes and I don't think this line knows it's a line. "Do you know there's a line for alcohol?" And we were like "FUCK!" And so we get in line and finally one of my friends knows this line isn't like a line, so we ask people in front of us, and they're "There's a line?!" and we just want some fuckin' alcohol! and he's all like <strong>THERE'S A LINE!!!</strong> and you and your non-line line suck.</p>
<p>I felt really bad for Party in a Box, because I'm, like, they have candy, and dinner and shit, and they have their beds out. I'm pretty sure people are gonna find that and go HOLY CRAP FOOD AND BEDS and I'M HOME DUDES. We walked in there at like 9:30 and were like "oh this room's gonna be really popular around 12:45." Then there was rice crispie sushi and gummy bears and these gummy bears like work out, right? Because they're all muscle. It was like IT'S LIKE FUCKIN' CANDY SUSHI and OW IT HURT MY FACE!</p>
<p>Then we went up to the penthouse which is like nerd bar, and it's fuckin' boring, it was, it was literally a country bar, but instead of country hicks you had nerds, and it was just as boring. And none of them were talking about anything and drinks were like ten thousand dollars and you had to ride the elevator allllll the way up here and I had to ride it allllll the way down and all the people brought their <em>spawn</em> and I'm a <em>guy</em> and I'm gonna have my period by the time I get down there! This is bullshit! And this powerpuff girl got all mad at me and was like, "I'm old and you didn't compliment me!" and it ended with me getting punched and one shouldn't get punched by a powerpuff girl for insinuating they were old. That's just rude.</p>
<p>Anyway, and in closing, I can play rock band when I'm drunk. It's a skill.</p>
<h2>OVERHEARD</h2>
<p>"I've never been on a date with <em>two</em> people who were wasted." "<em>You</em> have not been to the right clubs."</p>
<p>"If there was ever a man who would choke to death on his own balls, it would be him."</p>
<p>"The weather is pretty good on the Genesis Planet, though — the Spock is in bloom, and really lovely this time of year."</p>
<p>"We ought to <em>frame</em> this. This is like nerdcore to the <em>core</em>."</p>
<p>"Didn't you bring any mundane clothes for Saturday night?"</p>
<p>"It seems like we just don't have good assassinations like we used to."</p>
<p>"I love Vernor Vinge. If I were still fertile, I'd have his babies."</p>
<p>"Who said this?! We could get Verner Vinge <em>laid</em>. C'mere, Vinge, we can get your ass <em>laid</em>. Seriously, we should call him."</p>

<h2>DRUNK ART CRITICISM IS AWESOME</h2>
<p><strong>does our artist goh have a sense of humor? let's find out, shall we?</strong></p>
<p><points at programme book centrefold> This is an anal-retentive dragon. <em>THIS</em> is an anal-retentive dragon! This dragon is fucking bored. See these things? This dragon stacked these things himself. This is <em>wrong</em>. Did he contract this shit out? No! He fucking did this all on his own on a Tuesday night when there was nothing on TV. This is bullshit! And what is this in this fucking mountainside? He <em>carved</em> that. This is some art hippie dragon. NO! HE'S GOT ARCHITECTURE SKILLS! STOP HIM!! God damn. Never fuck with an art hippie dragon! Especially when he has fuckin' laser beams coming out of his back.</p>
<p>That picture's been bothering me all weekend.</p>
<h2>DRUNK FOOD CRITICISM IS ALSO AWESOME</h2>
<p><strong>does our hotel have a sense of humor? let's find out, shall we?</strong></p>
<p>ok ok ok ok ok next year if the cafe is not fuckin' open until one in the morning like it says it is on the goddamn wall we should fuckin' riot. We should bring that bitch down. Not the whole hotel, just that part. It says 1am on that fuckin' sign on the wall and they're all WE DIDN'T KNOW THERE WAS ANYBODY IN THE HOTEL and there's like 2900 of us, bitches. And that's all I got to say. PS HOTEL I LOVE YOUUUUUU</p>
<h2>DID YOU KNOW THE POPE IS A LOBSTER?</h2>
<p><strong>you can find that shit out on the interweb, man. no, seriously.</strong></p>
<p>I don't know what it is with Biohazard but these guys decided they're some trendy LA club in the middle of nerdville and they have a line that's like a mile long and the hotel's only one block so how does that even work? Guess where we didn't go! Fuck that.</p>
<p>Okay however. To start out with. 5452. If there was an alcoholic version of pleasantly getting the shit getting kicked out of you in a back alley, you would find it in 5452. we found this really awesome party that doesn't exist, it's like a seriously secret thing, we had to sit through a presentation thing, they even gave us a little chip, my as still hurts where they injected it, we had to sit through this fucking thing, it's call the Teodoro Family Party. If you find these guys, they know their shit, man. They got us well and truly lit, just out of the kindness of their hearts. We went from fucked up to WOAH OMG in like nothing flat. And we were pretty fucked up already.</p>
<p>The only note I have in my notepad is there's this secret party I'm not supposed to talk about.</p>
<h2>FOUND</h2>
<p>"I ♥ Brains" button, in dealer's room. Ask AmyCat at Book Universe for it.</p>
<h2>GRAND 3 CLEANUP!</h2>
<p>Did you dance the night away? Did you watch or participate in the Masq? You're invited Sunday afternoon after the Swap Meet (around 2pm), the lights are up and you get to see the magic. And we'd love for you to help us tear down the magic and pack it up. Wow, will it all fit in those boxes?</p>
<p>The more volunteers we get, the sooner we get done! Come help!</p>
<h2>MATCH GAME PRIZE!</h2>
<p>If you won a Tonopah in 2002 pre-support at Match Game SF and did not receive your prize, you may get it today at the Hugo Award Nomination Announcement panel in Cascade 10 at 2pm.</p>
<h2>ARRRRRRRRRRRRRT!</h2>
<p>Last chance for Artists' Alley! I know you told yourself that you would get to it, but you haven't, have you? Well, why the hell not? We are only in operation from 10am to 2pm today, so stop procrastinating and come by!</p>
<h2>MOOOOOOVIES!</h2>
<p>Our final panel of Movie Previews will start right at Noon and run until 2pm in Evergreen 1-2. The list of "Why Why Why?" is longer than ever! If you haven't seen the latest from Hollywood, drop on by.</p>
<h2>OVERHEARD</h2>
<p>"I'm not saying you ARE a tool, I'm saying I HAVE your tool."</p>
<p>"I do have privilege. I'm white, I'm male, and appear mostly gender conforming, except when I open my mouth and eight yards of chiffon fall out."</p>
<p>Pat Booze to Doug Booze: "Officer Jim said there's no sex in marriage; sorry, honey."</p>
<p>"He's Sicilian. It took us four hours to shave him from head to toe."</p>
<p>"It's somewhere between 'yum' and 'my mouth is being violated.'"</p>
<p>"What was your grade?" "I dont know. My paper was returned to me in an urn."</p>
<p>Her: "Are you going to follow me all night?" Him: "Not if you go to your room."</p>
<p>Cory Doctorow: "[Science fiction] was the love that dared not speak its name."</p>
<p>"I'm really curious to see what comes out on paper. It's like the Nuremberg trials of drunk."</p>
<h2>The Singular Voice</h2>
<p>was the daily "news"letter of Norwescon 33. R'ykandar (Dara) Korra'ti is all done with this now. Kate Wolfe's just getting started! SunnyJim won't admit working on it 'cause we've all been TERMINATED. Bye!</p>

<h1>STOMP</h1>
<p>NEWSLETTER OF THE CASCADIAN MECHA MILITIA DANCE DANCE REVOLUTION DEMONSTRATION TEAM <br />ALSO NORWESCON 31 | THURSDAY | 2K8.03.20 | DIFFICULTY LEVEL HIGH | DESTRUCTION LEVEL MASSIVE</p>
<h2>Welcome to Norwescon 31</h2>
<p>After a year of planning, we are finally here. I do hope everyone has a safe and wonderful weekend. We have worked very hard all year to provide you with a great panel of Guests of Honor; if you see them wondering around the hotel, don't be afraid to say hello!</p>
<p>If you have any questions regarding Norwescon, please stop by the convention office, located in room 7106. If they cannot answer your question, ask them to page the chair, and I will see what I can do for you. Until then, have a great time!</p>
<p>Tracy Knoedler <br />Norwescon Chair</p>
<h2>Programme Changes</h2>
<h3>:::Guests Unable to Attend</h3>
<p><strong>Dennis Bergum, Carol Duby, Wolf Lahti, David Shoemaker, Dave Williams,</strong> and <strong>Vixy & Tony</strong> are unable to attend, and will not be appearing in any panels. <strong>Irene Radford</strong> is unavailable on Sunday. <strong>Alisoun Lamb</strong> will mis Thursday, and is no longer on today's "Genre Busting." <strong>Mario Acevedo</strong> is now moderator for this panel.</p>
<h3>:::Pilot Transfers for Thursday</h3>
<p><strong>Patrick Rothfuss</strong> has been added to "Forging Fiction" (4PM, Cascade 9), "Genre Busting" (5PM, Cascade 5), and "Words of Magic, Words of Science" (8PM, Cascade 4)</p>
<p><strong>Sean Prather</strong> has been removed from "The Most Dangerous Game" (8PM, Olympic 1) and added to "What are the Great Sci-Fi Video Games?" (8PM, Evergreen 4)</p>
<h2>Dealer Room Hours Reboot</h2>
<p><strong>:::I blame metric time. Also, DST.</strong></p>
<p>Please note that the dealer hours listed in the pocket program book for Thursday are incorrect. The correct dealer hours are as follows:</p>
<p>Thursday 5PM-9PM <br />Friday 11AM-8PM <br />Saturday 10AM-6PM <br />Sunday 11AM-4PM</p>
<h2>Movie Previews Extended</h2>
<p><strong>:::These are the films that never end</strong></p>
<p>Back FOR the Future! The Friday Movie Preview panel in Evergreen 4 has so much info we can't squeeze it into one measly hour. So we're starting early, at 2:30PM instead of 3PM. Get your seats at this always-capacity panel early, and see the future before it arrives!</p>
<p>For the young, we have a special hour of children and family-friendly previews at Noon Friday in Olympic 1 (Family Track Programming). First priority seats will go to the kids, second priority for their parents, others can fill the remaining space. Come find out which film-based toys your children will be clamoring for this Christmas!</p>
<h2>Where's All This Then?</h2>
<p><strong>:::Frankly, your guess is as good as mine</strong></p>

<h2>What's All This Then?</h2>
<p><strong>:::Frankly, your guess is as good as mine</strong></p>
<p>Welcome to the newsletter of the Republic of Cascadia's Mecha Milita Dance Dance Revolution Demonstration Team. Also, the daily 'zine of Norwescon 31. You're in the RoCas (that's pronounced <em>raucous</em>) and normally I wouldn't even <em>think</em> about explaining this out front, but, this time? I admit it, this year's concept may as well be from Mars.</p>
<p>So welcome back to Cascadia, a Republic that isn't in a world that hasn't been but probably would be kinda neat if it actually was. It's a world of global, but not super, powers, most with native or imported dragon-assisted air forces, which we proud Cascadians — citizens of the RoCas — call "the varmints." We and Japan are not quite so lucky as to have quantities of these particular assets, so, like Aesop's fox, complain about what we cannot have. But lo, we are not pushovers, for we have the Mecha Militia, who is IN UR MOUNTAINS SMASHING UR KAIJU. Along with everything else.</p>
<p>This weekend the Mecha Militia's Dance Dance Revolution Demonstration Team is in town! (Think our alternative version of the Blue Angels. Kinda.) An awesome sight, you might be able to see them practicing — <em>yes, from here</em> — at Boeing Field, and possibly across I-5, and possibly on the Museum of Flight if they don't have their act more together than they did for last year's disastrous performance in the former town of Woodinville, which, well, frankly, needed a bit of an fdisk-and-reinstall anyway.</p>
<p>Confused? That's okay, we are too. just think "alternate history what has dragons and mecha" and go with it.</p>
<p>But to get back on topic: this is also your daily convention newsletter. This is where you go for awards notices, programme changes, party lists, advance performance warnings, and anything else we get that we think might be fun. We have a digital camera so can print artwork and photos, too!</p>
<p>So submit thing! Funny things you overhear — in or out of context — commentary, bad poetry, whatever. Appearances aside, we didn't write this in advance — it's all live! And that's all part of the game. <strong>We need you to make it work.</strong></p>
<p>The deadline of each day's issue is 10PM the evening before, or later if you find us in person, so if you need something in Friday's issue, get it into a box by 10 tonight! Submissions boxes are at Information, Registration, Office, and Hospitality. Look for us because we'll be looking for you.</p>

<p>NEWSLETTER OF THE CASCADIAN MECHA MILITIA DANCE DANCE REVOLUTION DEMONSTRATION TEAM <br />ALSO NORWESCON 31 | FRIDAY | 2K8.03.21 | DIFFICULTY LEVEL STUPID | DESTRUCTION LEVEL COMPREHENSIVE</p>
<h2>GET READY TO MATCH THE STARS</h2>
<p><strong>:::QUAKE IN PH33R OF THE TERRIFYING FROG-MAN</strong></p>
<p>You can win a membership to next year's Norwescon as one of the prizes on offer at <em>Match Game SF</em>, an SF&F-themed version of the classic game show <em>Match Game</em>. Norwescon's version begins at 9PM in Olympic 1 as contestants randomly selected from the audience will attempt to guess how our panel will respond to fill-in-the-blank questions such as "Captain Kirk has the biggest _____ in Starfleet!"</p>
<p>Besides a Norwescon 32 membership, other prizes include gift certificates from Cargo Cult Books and Springtime Creations (in the Norwescon Dealers Room), a prize package from Costume-Con 26, and a signed advance reading copy of <em>Escapement</em>, the sequel to <em>Mainspring</em>, by Jay Lake, who will also be one of the panelists. The first half of Match Game SF is rated PG-13 for suggestive language; panelists will be encouraged to be somewhat freer with their responses after the f/i/v/e/ /m/a/r/t/i/n/i/ "halftime" break between games three and four.</p>
<p>Match Game SF also needs production assistants to help keep the game moving. Come help in Olympic 1 during set-up (8PM) and you'll get a special badge available only to those who help "make the magic happen".</p>
<h2>PROGRAMME CHANGES</h2>

<p>"The way they remove nipples these days, it's like shaving a deli ham."</p>

<h2>DISASTER RECOVERY CREWS OVERWHELMED</h2>
<p><strong>::IT'S LIKE A CLOW CAR FULL OF FEN!</strong></p>
<p>Registration reports 2200 members as of Thursday evening. Yes, that's as of <em>Thursday</em>, the <em>slow</em> day.</p>
<h2>LIFETIME MEMBERSHIP AWARDS ANNOUNCED</h2>
<p><strong>THAT'S A LOT OF ¥100 COINS!</strong></p>
<p>Each year, the current Chair of Norwescon has the opportunity to award a Lifetime Membership to an individual or individuals that have contributed greatly to the Convention. Tracy Knoedler, this years convention chair, did so at the final planning meeting for Norwescon 31.</p>
<p>This year's honorees, working as a team, have aided Norwescon through countless hours of hard work, heavy lifting, and the willingness to go the extra mile to assure that everyone behind the scenes — as well as every person who attends the Convention — always has all the "stuff" they need. But their dedication doesn't stop there! Throughout the year, they also keep track of all those items, making sure they are kept safe, transporting them to and fro — all the while keeping a positive and upbeat attitude.</p>
<p>Accordingly, this year, the Chair awarded not one, but three Lifetime Memberships, with the committee in agreement that there could be no better choice of recipients. Please join us in congratulating Daniel Patowski, Eric Patowski, and Yvonne Patowski, also affectionately known as "The Norwescon Transportation Team."</p>
<h2>MOVIE PREVIEWS EXTENDED</h2>
<p><strong>:::BORED STRETCHER? BORED STRETCHER?!</strong></p>
<p>Back FOR the Future! The Friday Movie Preview panel in Evergreen 4 has so much info we can't squeeze it into one hour. So we're starting early, at 2:30PM instead of 3PM. Get seats at this always-at-capacity panel early, and see the future before it arrives!</p>
<p>For the young, we have a special hour of children and family-friendly previews at Noon Friday in Olympic 1 (Family Track Programming). First priority seats will go to the kids, second priority for their parents, others can fill the remaining space. Come find out which film-based toys your children will be clamoring for this Christmas!</p>
<h2>DISASTER RECOVERY CREWS ON STANDBY</h2>
<p><strong>:::WORST. LIMERICK. EVAR.</strong></p>
<p>Calling all late night fen! <br />You're done partying; <br />You're done dancing; <br />Your'e just wandering around. <br />Wander on down to Grand Ballroom 3 after the dance around 2 or 3AM and help pack up the equipment! It can be a whole lot of fun. No, really! Many things are funny at this hour.</p>
<h2>WHO-DO VOODOO?</h2>
<p><strong>:::HORTON HEARD A WHAT WHAT AND WHO NOW?</strong></p>
<p>The Voodoo Message Board is located in the lobby. Here's how it works!</p>
<p>If you wish to receive messages from other Norwescon attendees, check the box next to your name on the Voodoo Board. (If you didn't pre-register, you'll have to add your name to the list. Make sure to add your name in alphabetical order!) When a message is left for you, a pin will be added next to your name. Remove the pin, and look for your message in the message box. Messages are put into the box in alphabetical order.</p>
<p>If you'd like to leave a message for someone, write it out, fold the message paper, write their name on the outside, and put the paper into the message box in alphabetical order with the other messages. Then put a pin next to their name on the Voodoo Board so the recipient knows to check the box.</p>
<h2>MISSING: NEEDLENOSE PLIERS</h2>
<p><strong>:::TOO SMALL TO USE AS A TOOTHPICK, TOO LARGE TO SWALLOWED BY ACCIDENT (WE THINK)</strong></p>
<p>Missing: Needlenose pliers. Last seen in a small, heavy box. If found, please return to tech as soon as possible.</p>

<p>(At Peacebonding) "The rocks have been made safe."</p>
<p>(At Registration) "I was shunted into management where I could do less damage."</p>
<p>"You spent all Saturday in bed? No wonder you look tired."</p>
<h2>LOST: COSTUME JACKET</h2>
<p>Missing: One BDU urban camouflage grey jacket with a House Marik patch (dark eagle on background) on the right shoulder. Last seen Friday night at Lazer Tag. The jacket is a costume accessory and is also a gift from the owner's father. If spotted, please return to Lost and Found. Thanks!</p>
<h2>THE PARTY REPORT</h2>
<p><strong>:::PARTY GOD MAKES A STATEMENT</strong></p>
<p>For the first time that I, Party God, can remember, the convention and the party wing have parted ways. The Fellowship was broken, and sadly, no great evil was defeated. Merchants of Diva, Cult of Scott Bakula, and the other "Super" parties decamped to the La Quinta in response to new rules at the Doubletree. They joined forces to create the Lords of the Bling and ran a mega-room-party, leaving wings 5 and 5b empty and oddly creepy. Two parties held their ground, Shockwave (reportedly) falling to the might of the liquor board (note that this is an <strong>un</strong>checked rumor) and Seattle Worldcon in 2011, which had good $1 drinks, munchies, conversation, and, for better or worse, no music.</p>
<p>In the interest of non-biased reporting, I went to the Lords of the Bling party. These parties worked in 5b because you had three or more to choose from; at the La Quinta, they were the only show, and as a result had no problem overpacking the site. They served okay alcohol, if you could get to the bar, and their teaser shows had men as well as women but cost $40 to see. They also spent the night one noise complaint away from being permanently shut down by the cops.</p>
<p>In short, the con and the parties can do and have done so much better together than they ever will apart. One way or another, this needs to be fixed.</p>
<h2>FOUND: REPLACEMENT PARTS</h2>

<h2>STOMP</h2>
<p>Was the daily newsletter of NORWESCON 31, published as a morning edition. Articles from the membership were pleaded for; the deadline for each day's edition was 10PM the previous evening, or later if you could find the editors in person. (Good luck with that.) Submissions boxes were marked and placed throughout the convention, most notably in the Office and at the Information Table.</p>

Jr. Class Angela Froom Froom McFlibble What Korra'ti. Conceptual assistance has been provided by inexplicable in-jokes, a lack of ideas that make any damn sense, and the rhinovirus.

<h2>John Picacio: A Song of Ice and Fire</h2>
<p><strong>A Special Offer for Norwescon Members</strong></p>
<p>Our Artist Guest of Honor John Picacio is making available to Norwescon members very limited edition prints of his artwork from the 2012 George R.R. Martin: A Song of Ice and Fire Calendar. These prints debuted just last weekend at World Horror and we are the next to take advantage of this amazing opportunity.</p>
<p>These five amazing prints are printed on archival paper from the renowned company of Hahnemuhle, who have been making paper since 1584. There will only be 100 of each print produced, each print is signed and numbered, and the most extraordinary thing about owning one of these prints is that John created each print myself, by hand.</p>
<p>Come by and check out Eddard Stark, Jon Snow and Ghost, Sansa Stark and the Hound, Bran Stark, and Melisandre -- any of which would make a wonderful addition to your collections.</p>

<h2>Norwescon Art Show: And the Winners Are!</h2>
<p>Norwescon’s Art Show was a hotbed of activity with a small bidding war happening right before close. The sold stamps almost dried out. Our Judges worked hard to decide who should be honored this year. The art quality was some of the best that we have had.

<p>Guest of Honor Award: Julie Baroh, for Peri <br />Best in Show: Kyle Abermethy, for 1 Timothy 2:8-15 <br />First Place: Julie Baroh, for Peri <br />Second Place: Michael Duquette, for Time Skipper <br />Third Place: Rob Carlos, for Armageddon Dragon <br />Best Color: Jeff Sturgeon, for Martian Archway <br />Best Black & White: Katherine Leeds, for Winters Gift <br />Best Mixed Media: Aimee Stewart, for Sister Moon <br />Best 3-D: MacLeod Dragons, for Fishing <br />Best Jewelry: Gempunk Jewelry, for Time Bandit <br />Best Textile’s: Elizabeth Fellows, for Emerald Dream</p>
<p>We are pleased to announce that Norwescon’s scholarship goes to the Northwest College of Art and Design student, Leanne Dunn for Vulture Girl. A big thanks to our judges Don Lackey, Caroline Westra, and Mac Oros for their hard work and interesting wrestling moves.</p>
<h3>The People’s Choice Awards</h3>
