Just Pointing Out...

[cheshirenoir]

The last few cons have had a programme made almost entirely by suggestions submitted by the public, with the panels that appeared being almost exclusively the ones where volunteers being on them.

Yes, we could probably change the ratios, but we need more volunteers. This does not mean the same old tired people on more panels. That is a path that leads only to darkness.

So if you don't like the makeup of the programme, go round up more volunteers and make them volunteer! Stack the deck. Spoil the programmer for choice. Then (and only then) can you bitch that *insert fanboi preference of the week* doesn't happen enough in the programme.

Volunteering For Panels

[kyu-kage.livejournal.com]

I finally sat on a panel for the first time last year at Wastelands and found the experience nerve racking, but ultimately enjoyable.

I'd be willing to sit on more panels, but it ultimately boils down to two things: Time And Interest.

For example, I've been asked in the past by friends to sit on panels, and haven't been able to because of work.
