luckykaa I'm here for the Finnish Worldcon. Duo far I've been to about 4 panels and
presentations, and failed to get into about 10. 69 people is to few for the potential audience of almost any talk. I did get into the Lies of Locke Lamora panel (seating for 45) though, through dint of turning up half an hour early. I had no idea about the books, but have learned that I should consider them to be romance tragedy rather than medieval comedy.
Also went to a presentation on theatrical makeup.
And that was about it for scheduled items.
Meet up with many friends, which is always nice, but was tired, so decided to head back to hotel to chill.
Time zone was messing me up a bit. At about 9, I was feeling suitably chilled out, and since my brain was on UK time, and insisting it was only about 7pm, returned to con for parties. Glad I did. Met a really awesome cosplayer dressed as Finland from Scandinavia And The World. There was also a Denmark, Canada, England, and apparently Iceland and King Europe.
Opinion so far, nice enough, but needs way more function space!
Really need a Finland icon.
