Unified Theory of Everything Post 2020
Sep. 14th, 2020 04:01 pmFriends, Romans, Countrymen, lend me your reckons! I come to use livejournal as an archive repository, not to overwhelm it and crash the robust, Russia dwelling, servers.
THIS WILL BE THE ONLY SIGN UP/REGISTRATION/VOLUNTEER/RESTAURANT BOOKING/PIZZA ORDER POST OF 2020. DO EVERYTHING HERE.
There will be a hard cut off of Thursday October 1 to sign up, order pizza, confirm attendance at dinner, pay your subs etc. This is not a drill, if you are habitually late signing up or rsvping for things, do not do that this year. I am not willing to make extra difficulties for essential workers in this year of our trials and tribulations 2020.
There will be an update email going out shortly, and likely another later in the week, and as always up to the minute updates will go out on twitter. There will also be at least one more post here with final confirmation of times, venues, and event timetables.
Please fill out the following form as a top level comment to this post. (You can, of course, converse as you wish in replies to each other.) If you can't log in, just put your public pseud in the subject line. Don't worry about overthinking stuff, it's just rorshach blots and pub quiz fodder. Obviously if your presentation is still evolving you can give a general indication here and add detail later.
Subs are $33, same as always. Bank account details are in the email.

Date: 2020-09-18 10:40 pm (UTC)Public pseud: I am Amber IRL / Camberion on my very-rarely-used fandom Twitter / AJ on my slightly more professional but almost as rarely used Twitter.
Current favourite fandom: 2020 has been a year of toe-dipping. During Level 4 I went for a brief paddle through Phantom of the Opera fics (thank you, ALW streamed youtube shows). Then it was a return to Dresden Files Harry/Marcone. Most recently, I’ve started listening to the Rivers of London audiobooks and am now chewing my way through some truly excellent Peter/Nightingale fics.
I secretly want to get into Reylo fandom, but the sheer scale of it is leaving me too daunted to begin.
Current OTP (or OT3 etc): Peter/Nightingale
One true undying, always returning, forever fandom and/or OTP: Harry Potter :/
Three characters that represent you in some way (no explanations, let us figure it out):Agnieshka, Eleven, Hermione
