sqbr: And yet all I can think is this will make for a great livejournal entry. (livejournal)

So, a common thing people do on lj is to post lists of statements about unnamed people on their flist ("You're awesome", "I wish you were dead" etc). What ends up happening is that everyone tries to guess which ones are about them but of course the poster won't say.

I thought about doing a list of statements so vague that between them they covered all a hundred or so of you, but it got a bit mawkish and dull. Instead, I've made a list where each statement refers to exactly one username on my userinfo, and you have to figure out who is who by logical deduction.

Hopefully it should be do-able but noone should be able to tell who everyone is without some thought/research. Some may be wrong, but that just adds to the challenge :)

So, I'm on the "Science of Science Fiction" panel at Gengiscon weekend after next, and it turns out that while I thought I was simply on the panel I'm actually running the panel, and thus have no other panelists unless I organise them.

Which is ok, Cam's agreed to be on it with me, but I thought I'd put the word out and see if anyone else who's going (or might consider going, it's 7pm on Saturday which looks like a fun day and it's only $10 for the day(*)) is interested in going on it with us. Or even just has suggestions. I was thinking only one or two people (I say on the very off chance I get 3+ volunteers)

I've done a first draft of an outline here. I was thinking of having as much audience involvement as possible anyway. Another section I just thought of to add is the stuff that everyone always gets wrong.

(*)It's possible that you get free day membership for being on the panel, but I haven't checked so wouldn't count on it :)
