(and I suspect those who stayed through that whole meeting needed more than a fifth afterwards)
@Jon good god, yes
Seven and a half hour meeting? I would be an axe murderer after the first hour! I mean, good on them, and I’m glad they were doing the work and stuff, but seven and a half hours? That must have been brutal.
I immediately went home, ordered pizza, and watched Doctor Who. It was necessary, but I can’t say it was fun. Still: Arisia is my home con and I am determined to do better by our community.
It was actually 2 meetings. The Welcome to Arisia meeting which was planned for 1:45 PM for 15 minutes to give new people voting rights actually ran from 2 PM to 3 PM. The main meeting ran from 3 PM to 9:30 PM and ending mostly because we lost the space (due to their licensing) at 9:30 PM. A number of committees never got to report and there was very limited new business. The results of the Member-At-Large election were actually announced between 9:30 PM an 10 PM while we were still breaking down the room. There was a dinner break at 6 PM when food was brought in.
