Title: PLEASE Volunteer!
Post by: SailorKnightWing on Sep 03, 2008, 06:29:58 PM
Please volunteer to work at the con! An autograph of my favorite webcomic writer/artist hangs in the balance! The only people I know are already on staff or volunteering. You get in free, just give some of your time to help the staff do what they do. They won't bite! I think. Volunteer for my birthday present?

Wow!
You really want that autograph.  I actually feel kind of bad about blackmailing you now. 

That doesn't mean I'm going to stop or anything.

As of right now, the most likely place for the table will be near the front end of artist alley adjacent to the registration desk and main entrance. We may put it there intentionally because it is easy to find and also we would be able to see who is going to volunteer and what not.

Just as a reminder, please be prepared to work and help us out. Your efforts will not go unnoticed,

I apologize for someone not getting back to you then but just stop by the table and we'll find you a home to help out with. ^_^

Please don't think this is said rudely, but wouldn't it be easier to just go back and fix the typo then write an explanation? ;)

Honestly it probably would have been but the truth is I wasn't sure how to spell the right word, I just didn't want anyone thinking I was stupid.

The areas where volunteers will be assigned are vendors room, registration, panels, Main Events, and video rooms. In most of these areas, the volunteer will server as a gopher ready to run errands for the staff. There may be a few other areas, but that depends on how many people we have as volunteers. However, you must pay for your registration fee before you can volunteer. After you work a set number of hours, you're registration fee will be reimbursed.

I will say that you can work as many or as few shifts as you like. But you have to work the set number of hours to receive a reimbursement of your registration fee.

Okay guys,

Just heard from Tom and Margaret and they are more than happy to volunteer the con.  I will too, but keep in mind no heavy lifting, I will be getting carpal tunnel surgery on my left hand in November.  Maybe help at registration and some light work.  The '40 somethings' will be ready for you guys as soon as we get situated in the hotel room!

That is good to hear. We look forward to having you on board as a volunteer if all goes well. Additionally, please make sure and read Farix's post as this is different than last year in terms of volunteering. Thank you. =)

I should be free to volunteer for some of it.  I'll be there the whole weekend and such, and won't be with a group that I'm aware of yet so I might as well have a point other then randomly walking around and people watching to see all the cosplay.

I have to ask...who? And what's the blackmail? LOL

By the by, please do volunteer people....it would be wonderful to have the problem of having too many willing people.

Do you guys still need some more volunteers?  I saw the page at the top saying there would be a signup page eventually, and was gonna wait for that.  But doesn't seem like that'll make it before tomorrow.  Would you just want me to check after I get there?

There will be a table set up to take people who want to volunteer. 
You can sign up to be a volunteer any time during the con.
