Anonymous asked: what's with the ball pit thing? I hate not getting things but I must have missed something big Okay anon, let me stop giggling for a little bit and explain to you what happened "DashCon 2014": Was supposed to be a large con of mostly Tumblr users with a 65$ entry fee. They were going to host it in a Hotel in Schaumburg, IL. It looked like a fairly legit con to most users and promised to have Steam Powered Giraffe and Welcome to Night Vale show up for entertainment and panels. Steam Punk Giraffe canceled it's trip to Dashcon months ago but the Con never told the people who already invested money into it, especially the people who paid extra for reserved seating. Welcome to Night Vale didn't show up because they didn't get their payment for the trip and thus didn't go. Dashcon apparently" got a call from the hotel telling them that the room they reserved would cost $17,000 and didn't receive their payment. Dashcon then rallied up it's participants for a fundraiser in 2 days to raise that money Well...They did. Where that money is now, no one knows. People showed up to a very empty room with no vendors. Someone bought a ball pit and rented a bounce house for the con and the people who reserved seats for the panels got an extra hour in the ball pit.
