MGSF at Westercon

[kevin_standlee]

It looks like plans for Match Game SF at Westercon are starting to come together. We've been holding fire on announcing anything until we knew whether we'd have the room we wanted to use for the days/nights we'd like to do shows, that being the Club Regent room on the ground floor of the Fairmont. (This is a great space: a former caberet, it has a split level stage great for staging the show.)

We appear to be tentatively booked in to do Match Game Late Night on Sunday night after the performance of Girl Genius Radio Theatre. (Probably 9:30, but possibly a bit later.) What I'm not certain of right now is whether we'll do a Saturday or Sunday afternoon show as well. Personally, I'd like to do a show on Saturday mid-afternoon, but a lot of that depends on whether Programming can let us have the space then as well. Since we're expecting to use the same tech kit for the radio play as for Match Game, there's some reason to do an afternoon show on Sunday afternoon instead of Saturday, but I'm not too thrilled about booking myself continuously for close to six hours.

In addition, we also need to know if our regular panelists are available and when. I'd like to ask the Foglios to be on the daytime show, but not the nighttime one as they'll have just done GGRT and probably will want to bug out when it's over. So, who is available?

Also, I always need new questions (email to my LJ handle @livejournal.com if you don't have my e-mail), and we could use some new sponsorship donations as the supply is starting to run a little dry.

Assuming kproche and bovil don't beat us to the punch, gridlore and I will happily play Brett Sommers and Charles Nelson Reilly for you. ;-)

Both bovil and I are available for both slots

...whereas I just remembered I'm married to a Morning Person. I can do either, Doug can do the daytime show.

caprine will be in town for Westercon; she did a bang-up job at last year's Westercon edition. Would love to see her, specially on the PM edition!

Perhaps Seat #4 on Late Night, then? Assuming I can get the Foglios for seats 1/4 on the Daytime show, that would fill the dance card right there.

[trinsf.livejournal.com]

I think she'd be great in seat 4 of late night. :-) Yay!

[kevin-standlee.livejournal.com]

That's fine. Would you contact her for me and let her know?

Hey -- I have a game that I won at Geeks Vs. Geeks, the bar trivia night taking places at two locations in the bay area. I would love to donate it on their behalf as a sponsored prize. Here's the event's Facebook Page. I can get Pat Yulo to write up a blurb for it. Would that be too bay area specific, or okay?

[kevin-standlee.livejournal.com]

Sure, that would be just fine! Send me a 60-second radio-type commercial to go with it and we'll put it in with the Bonus Round prizes. Thank you!

[trinsf.livejournal.com]

That would be the text for the commercial, right? I'm already on it with the coordinator. :-)

[kevin-standlee.livejournal.com]

That's right. As long as the game remains in our prize mix, they get a commercial rotated with the others.

I'm available.

[kevin-standlee.livejournal.com]

How about the #1 seat on Late Night?

[querldox.livejournal.com]

That's fine.
