@Jreznel @chicagoworldcon There is no official discord server for chicon

@huttersson @improvstartrek @chicagoworldcon I believe it will be broadcast to the virtual event.

@improvstartrek @chicagoworldcon Aaaaah will it be recorded? Swedish fan!

We're happy to announce we've got a live performance Friday, Sept 2 at Chicon 8, which also WorldCon 80, which is also the Hugo Awards!!! Check out @chicagoworldcon to see their great program, an all new voyage on the USS Sisyphus, & the *literal* best SciFi/Fantasy of the year!

@Merc_Wolfmoor @klhurley2 What about a Wolf-spider?

Check out this thread for a lot of great literary organizations in Seattle that could use your support today including @norwescon and @GeekGirlCon

@PepperedKris should (not did) auto incorrect...

@PepperedKris There is a validation machine in the lobby for the hotel parking that did bring the cost down to $8.

Long shot, but does anyone have parking advice for #nwc44? I was there for three hours today and parked at the hotel and it cost $26. Not sure I can do that every day and I've never seen that at a con before.

This sounds amazing! Check it out.
