Agreed. Not a layout choice I would have made.

We can modify the template to include it. But on the default theme (and the one I use), you can get to it by clicking the button to the left of the "Forums" link just under the logo. It looks like 3 lines under each other. I agree that it is not the most obvious of places to look for it, though.

Blah, didn't hold my attention nearly as well as Ingress did. Just never got into it, really. Guess it's not my type of AR game.

Let's move on here, please. Leeward is back and I am glad she's back. This is really old drama, no need to beat this particular horse.

Leeward wrote:Why lock it? Feedback can still be provided, photos archived, etc.

Point. I will go rethink this a little.

Also, to the others, I meant the subforum, obviously ... phrasing is not the best when I am this tired.

I will leave this forum open for 30 days, then lock and archive it. I have created a 2018 forum, and will unlock that for public posting as soon as the organisers have something to announce, which will hopefully be soon. Please feel free to post any comments, photos, etc in here. We just need a few ...

The purpose of this forum is to act as a public discussion around the South Afrifur Convention and to provide information to the community and gather their feedback on the plans made by the organizers.

Welcome back, and congratulations

This thread is meant to gather information from attendees and non-attendees, on the con. What did you enjoy, what didn't you enjoy, what can we do better next time? What will make you attend again, or for the first time? Please bring constructive criticism, not trolling or exceeding negativity. That...

I was so tired I managed to press Submit with half the post above unfinished. I have updated the post a little, instead of splitting the changes off.

Is there any official feedback? :) Photos? Statistics? Anything? We are busy gathering statistics, counting money, getting photos and so on. I will let Ivic post the final stats once everything is done. 28 Attendees paid, though not everyone stayed the whole time. Furthest attendee was the GoH, Bra...

We have sent out a final email to all attendees with the schedule, and some information about the venue, what to pack, etc. Please let me know if you did not receive it.

This may be easier for me to discuss at the con, but I am interested, yes. I'll bring cash along

We are busy writing and finalizing the schedule and other related info to be sent out to attendees. I can't see this being beyond 11am on Monday, though.

Convergent evolution. Binocular stereoscopic vision assist predators, because they can focus on the prey, and make judgement decisions like distance, etc. Eyes on the sides of the head assists prey species, as it gives a wide field of vision to watch out for said predators, and they are generally mo...

I will pass this thread onto the other organisers.

Small sizes are fine for me I wonder if we shouldn't merge this thread with Sudan's "What I am packing" thread, because between the two of them, they cover a lot of the essentials.

I will just leave this here.

Google believes speeding is safer. If you look at their YT videos, you also see them go reasonably fast. Not rally-like, but fast.

OK, booze is tolerated. Drunkenness is not. There are some activities that we also recommend you do not drink before, like the gladiator arena, for example.

Moderation then, please.

We are in the process of verifying what's allowed on-site i.t.o alcohol

There's a few German furs hanging out on IRC as well, if you want I can introduce you, and you will have people to test your language skills against in real time. That would be fantastic, Valerion! Thank you very much. I shall accept that offer, but let me just refine my German skills first. :P May...

Wait, what now? o.o Do you remember THIS thread - about me wanting to join another furry forum in a different language? ;) Well, I will be doing it quite soon. I've been studying German for about two weeks (not for the purpose of the furry forum; but the forum would be a practical and fun way to pu...

Also, luckily there's no conflicting ideas in that flag whatsoever.

I am in agreement with that. Image removed.

Sadly there are very few active makers in SA, most of us buy internationally.

Ask Jake Dane as well, perhaps.

Uhm, no. If I fill the headlight fluid container it just freezes. In winter I prefer to keep mine empty.
Or at least with anti-freeze or kerosene added.

Nobody show Sev this. Or Adagio.

Unfortunately, I am still uncertain as to whether I will be attending or not - even though it is growing late. Though it does fall on the inter-semester holiday, I may be quite busy with holiday projects and vacation work. I'm keeping an eye on the calendar and last date for purchasing tickets, for...
