Well if you haven’t bought plane tickets yet, I recommend 1-800-air-4-less. They are consistantly the cheapest time after time. As for accomodations, stay at Dalhousie U. The rooms are sparse to say the least. But you won’t be spending much time in your room anyway.
Last year I was only 18, and I knew NO ONE. I never posted to any boards, or joined any gorups before coming to uncon. But, I made friends very fast. From my experince, all lexxians are great friendly people. When your there just walk up to someone and say hi, and start talking. Or better yet walk up to many someones. My first day at uncon I must’ve talked with 30 different people for a long time.
It doesn’t need encouragement, but get in the spirit fast. The faster you do, the more fun you’ll have. But you get inthe spirut very fast.
The entire experince is like a RHPS showing, people don’t descriminate based on petty things, it very easy to get along with everyone.
Last year, I debated it until the last minute whetehr to go or not. I was still haveing doubts when I got there, but soon after it started all those doubts went away. The only thing I regret about uncon was ever thinking of not going! Last year, I was no one in the fan community, this year I’m organizing Uncon! You really will have the timeof your life. Guarenteed or your money back. (Yes I know its a free gathering [img]images/smiles/icon_smile.gif[/img] )
I must apoligize for how this is written, its finals week, and my brian in fuzzy right now, but you should get the idea.
