Title: Save ConnectiCon
Post by: Legion on July 19, 2005, 10:09:36 AM

If you haven't ever heard of ConnectiCon, it is a big supporter of web comics.  If you want to learn more about ConnectiCon then go to
http://www.connecticon.org/

A lot of web comics go there to show off there talents and gain new audiences.  However due to a lot of bad luck and extra fees the two people who run it are now in dept.  If any one can they need help in order to pay off the dept and be able to have a 2006 ConnectiCon.  http://www.saveconnecticon.com/ is a website that is put up by a group of people trying to help save them.  I just thought I would pass on the message to as many people as I could.

Thanks

I think I remember Tycho talking about these guys last year and how they're not very smart when it comes to planning their con dates (ie while Comic Con is going on) which I agree with and Gabe was talking about them eariler too which was near to the same thing.  Though it's sad that the people running it are in debt but that happens with the majority of cons, they just aren't a profitable business and most never break even.
