MangoCon Venue Research
-
Tried posting this photo from my phone the other day but it wouldn't upload, @Minion-Queen and I found this sign while we were exploring Niagara Falls..
-
They are ready and waiting for us!
-
A little vendor training is happening next week in Niagara it seems.
-
Tomorrow @Minion-Queen and I are hitting the road again to do some more venue research. This time in Rochester

I'm sorry. What venue choices are even up there? The Rochester Convention Center, obviously, and the War Memorial. But... those don't seem like good choices.

For those who do not know, this is all tied around the REAL ID Act.

Maybe Waterford will be able to join us for MangoCon!

@scottalanmiller I'm hoping so! I have my passport now too so Nicaragua isn't out of the question for me
When is the anticipated date for MangoCon?

Late summer or early fall 2016 for Upstate NY / Western NY is what I am currently hearing.

I'm pushing for Nicaragua but I don't see it happening.

To fly now (even in the US) we're being required to have the enhanced licenses.
This isn't an issue for me as I already have mine, but seems like a huge pain in the ass.
Only for people from three states whose states don't have driver's licenses that don't meet the federal security standard. Petition NYS to fix their driver's licenses (or move to a state that cares.)
What is that? the ones with the hologram thing, we've had those for years.

I'm not really sure. But from what I have been able to gather it is not the license itself that is the issue but the manner in which they hand them out. NY doesn't do enough background check or something.

I'd go if I can convince my work to pay for it.... oh wait, that's probably niagra too

The first one will be in the USA, and NYS to be exact. Anything outside of the states will probably be more social than anything else.

I came across this today, thought that this might be a good place to share it:
