Details/Possibilities on the Mighty Post-Party

Alright kids, finally firming up the details with our hosts @ Mighty on what’s happening to the schedule at around 10 o’clock after all the speakers have done their thang and our hosted open bar budget gets ground into so many tiny nubs by hordes of thirsty internet inhabitants. They’ve been handling this part of the show and it looks like the SF-area collective True Skool will be throwing a dance party with an all-star DJ lineup!

The good news is, this means there’ll be a good show to follow up the general awesomeness of ROFLThing. But, the sad news is, since the Mighty/True Skool crew are running this part of the gig, they’ll be kicking everyone out at 10 and reprocessing everyone who wants to get in for $5.

Happy to take suggestions/announce here on the blog if someone wants to do a post-ROFLThing bar or restaurant takeover somewhere. Drop me a line at tim AT roflcon DOT org.

Frank Chu Invited To San Francisco ROFLThing

It’s a long shot — but thanks to the recommendation of Sean Savage and the help of some awesome San Francisco ROFLThing attendees, local favorite “12 Galaxies” protester Frank Chu has been personally invited to the party on August 29th. As one of San Fran’s most prominent microcelebrities, we figured it was only right to extend the offer.

It’s anyone’s guess as to whether or not he’ll turn up, but, fingers crossed…

I Personally Believe…Miss South Carolina at ROFLThing?

They all laughed when we said we’d be getting Miss South Carolina to MC at August’s upcoming SF-ROFLThing. But really, how else were we going to equal the sheer awesome of having Leeroy Jenkins hosting back in April?

We’ve done some sleuthing around the web. And I’m excited to report that we’ve heard back. No kidding. You heard it here first.

Nothing is definite yet — but we’re talking with her representation right now try to negotiate out the terms of getting her to appear, and one limitation is that we may have to do some extra fundraising to get her out to San Fran with plane tickets, etc. We only want to do it if people would be down for meeting her in person though and potentially paying some small reg fee (~$10) or so to cover it (depending on how our sponsorships turn out. if you’re interested in sponsoring this or another part of ROFLThing, check out the details here).

Thoughts?
