    In response to the grumblings about a lack of advertising for this years previous Warpcon passed, I am happy to announce that the con is happening again next year. :p

    Will post up dates and email addy's and the like when the dust has settled on the new committee formation. I can confirm it'll be in January as usual and that most likely it'll be on the last weekend of said month, but I won't confirm that until the hall has been booked. Call me paranoid :)

    Yes! Almost the entirity of the Galway delegation was gutted last year by this...

    Pat Delany: Doors don't open for another half hour. Time for a few pints.

    [Walks into new bar]

    Pat Delany: Two... No, THREE pints of Beamish Red, please.

    Bartender: Sorry, we ran out just yesterday. There won't be any in until about Monday.

    Pat Delany: .............!
    [Face turns white with shock]




    Hmmm, maybe THAT'S why I actually won stuff this time round. I wasn't quite as drunk...

    Alright guys!

    Hall has been booked, we're just waiting on the official confirmation, but it's a given really :)

    Warpcon 2006 aka Warpcon XVI will be on the final weekend in January the 27th, 28th and 29th :)

    Usual location, ie the old bar, with possibly something small going on in the student centre to occupy people until the bar opens....

    Consider yourself informed! :p

    Website will be updated at some point www.warpcon.com (we only elected the new director on tuesday so give us time to get a committee together...)

    Sticky this pls, and I'll post up regular updates about Warpcon, I might do up a Warpcon mailing list for updates on the con if people are interested.

    ...And the Beamish Red? :)

    I used to love going to Warpcon. They used to let me tell a joke every year, just before the Charity Auction. Ah, yes. Those were the days. Small boys, jumpers for goalposts, etc. One day, I intend to develop another joke, and when that happens (don't tie me down, though), I will make my triumphant return! Behold the crap pun-meister that is ... !
