Give me a shipment of liquor, an ice cream truck, a hot dog stand, and a Motel 6 and I could pull off a better con.

It's, like, infinite bad Christmases all in one con man.

So people are reporting that they may have gotten STDs from the Dashcon orgy.

Yes, that actually happened.

EDIT: No, really.

Jesus Christ. An orgy?? This just keeps getting worse and worse the more I read this thread.
 
Say what you will about tumblrites... I actually feel pretty bad for people who spent money on the badges and expected a legitimately good time, only to get conned out of worthwhile entertainment.

I mean, I'm most likely going to be co-hosting a panel myself at a local con in January (with two friends who roped me into it) and I would really hate for something like this event to taint others' view of cons, since I went to one in March and they can be really cool if, y'know, they don't fail miserably...

is it really possible for the dashcon managers to have gotten away with the $17k scam? like aren't people gonna demand payment until there's no choice but to give most of it up? I'm a little confused on how that would work

It was a really expensive ball pit.

I'm pretty sure conventions involving porn and sex don't even have orgy rooms. Dashcon is ahead of it's game!

Not organized by the con itself, of course, but if you collect groups of weirdos together in one place like this and you definitely get stuff like that.

Some trolls and I went to magfest one year, and there was a furry orgy in the room across the hall from ours.

My friend once told me that he walked in on a bunch of dudes crossplaying as 2hu characters having a circlejerk at Anime Expo.

I... I didn't know. Oh god, I will never go to a single convention.
 
Found this, it's an interesting tale of how DashCon as perceived by con-goers was a bit different from DashCon as perceived by non-attending tumblrites and the rest of the world. Bit SJW-y and ranty, but.
 
Parts of DashCon can be read almost like a joke. "Did you hear the one about three Homestucks in a ball pit?" "How much money does it take to get a guest to leave?", and of course, the biggest joke of all, DashCon itself.
 
Now that I think about it, the ball pit at DashCon reminds me a lot of how when I was a little kid, when ever my family would get a large delivery in a big box filled to the brim with packing peanuts, we'd keep the box for a little while because I would have loads of fun farting around and "swimming" in the sea foam peanuts. The major differences that come to mind are that it had more to it than Dashcon itself, and I don't recall anyone ever pissing in the box and destroying it. :lol:
