Magfest 6 and weekend roundup

[giza]

MagFest went okay. I worked 3 shifts there and got to deal with a few problems, but not nearly as many as we had last year. This was probably due to them borrowing language from Anthrocon's Standards of Conduct. :-)

I personally got to deal with the aftermath of one assault, one alcohol-related issue, and my very first medical situation. The medical situation had to do with an individual cutting his finger while trying to use a knife to open a bottle of wine. Good idea, bad execution.

As I mentioned in the previous post, I tried commuting from davinwarter's place over the weekend. That seemed like a good idea in theory, but didn't work out too well in practice. There ended up being a fair amount of time spent traveling to and from the convention site, and we had to deal with the suck that is Washington, DC traffic.

Overall, my impression of the con was positive, and I hope that they'll be back at this hotel again next year.

I took a few pictures from the con, but haven't yet had a chance to post them. Also, just an FYI, I do not announce every single set of pictures I post on Flickr. So folks who actually care about what I photograph may want to consider subscribing to my Flickr RSS feed, found here.

Is there a link to the pictures that isn't an RSS feed? clicking it, all I get is XML code.

Note that it is also in the "other sites I like" section to the right of this page.

I haven't actually yet uploaded my Magfest pics, though.

The link you gave appears to be a feed for "everyone's photos".

Looks like LJ borked the URL. Weird. I replaced it with a TinyURL.
