MeFi IRL

Labor Day weekend is almost upon us again, and that means DragonCon in Atlanta. (Please don't call it Dragon*Con, they had their *-hole removed two years ago at no small expense.) Even though an actual organized MeFi meetup is not likely to survive everyone's various convention plans, we can at least use this thread to talk about those plans. NOTE: like last year, the time and place listed are for the registration line, the event itself lasts Thursday-Monday, and is spread across 5 high-rise hotels and a nearby convention center.

Group discount. http://www.melbournefringe.com.au/fringe-festival/show/who-are-you-supposed-to-be/ [more inside]

I've written a geek rom com set at a science fiction convention that involves Doctor Who cosplay. It's going to be amazing! Tickets on sale now. It's my first show at Edinburgh Fringe, but we've got an amazing cast on board - including Cameron K McEwan, better known in Doctor Who fandom as Blogtor Who. [more inside]

Doctor Who's Series 7 Finale airs this Saturday, at 8pm. And we're pleased as punch to be able to watch it the Jersey City residence of oh yeah!, dedicated mefite and whovian. Folks can start coming over around 5 just to hang out, maybe watch some classic Doctor Who or whatever folks suggest - the episode starts at 8pm, so aim to arrive around 7:30 for that if possible.
