Got a new fandom to pimp? (Someone must, surely...)

Got an old fandom to reminisce about? (Inevitable Smallville Renaissance anyone???)

Got a hot topic to discuss? (Mod it yourself if you want, demand suggest someone else do so if you prefer.)

Got a character that everyone would love if they only knew them? (Or someone we already love but would enjoy being reminded about?)

Got a vaguely fannish game to play?

Please volunteer in comments to this post, or @ or DM me on twitter.

THE MORE THE MERRIER!

Also, shihadchick has asked me to draw your attention to this Pictionary Farming poll: https://t.co/vzr8PT16du, so please go forth and submit.

Lastly, a reminder that there was considerable interest expressed last year in "two minute pimps" (which in practice, I think, means "single digit minute pimps" at your own discretion). So if you've never presented before but would like to try in the most low-pressure way imaginable, or you have several small things you'd like to introduce but not bother doing a full presentation on, then please put your hand up for as many or as few as you'd like, and I will sort them into some kind of thematic structure.

Please also feel free to think outside the box -- last year we had a couple of quite "different" presentations, in the form of historical/literary primers, art and audio presentations, etc. The official g/t17 definition of fannish content (by V fiat) is "friends and fellow fangirls will be interested in seeing/hearing this". So seriously, go wild.

I recently relived my teen years and re-watched all of Star Trek TOS. I'm sure that a half an hour would cover a very broad and very shallow recap of ST fandom with particular attention to the Kirk/Spock, if you need something to fill a space.

Have we done Dark Matter?

And has anyone asked whether Danny Rand is in fact the worst Iron Fist ever - just joking, this would have to be on the extremely short side of a 2 minute thing (I can't call it a pimp). Or it could be Defenders.

Sorry, I thought I'd replied to this, but lj obviously ate it! Do you still want to do this?

My fault - it was out of alignment. I don't think I'll have time/energy now - all burnt up in prep for the weekend show - maybe in the two-minute pimps?

Hey, I have completely been discombobulated the last fortnight, so take me off the list. Sorry for the short notice. :-(
