Dear Department Heads,

We here in the Marketing department want to have a successful convention.
We want it to be enjoyable for YOU as well as YOUR TEAM and, naturally, THE
GUESTS.  We do this by letting people know what's going on in your
departments through marketing emails, press releases, and twitter/facebook
updates.

The caveat to all of this is: We're not psychic.  We dont' know what events
you really want people to attend and we're not about to sit down with the
con book on Friday and plan all this out.  You see, we may not run games
during the con, but we do OTHER things during the con that take our time.
We also would like a chance to relax and maybe play some games (since this *
is* a gaming convention).

This is the final time I will request information from you for tweets.  If
no one sends me anything, nothing will get promoted, except Marketing
events and Dealer Room stuff.  I grow very weary of having to pull teeth to
get information from you to promote.  Is it difficult to send me an e-mail
with a list of events and times for your department?  It shouldn't take you
more than two minutes (except for maybe RPGs and BG...they have a bunch).
YOU KNOW YOUR OWN DEPARTMENTS.  I know nothing of what you have going on
and simply looking at the schedule won't help me.

Now.  Please.  SEND ME THINGS TO PROMOTE.  If we want to grow the con, we
need to promote the con.  We need to work TOGETHER to do this.  The con
starts Friday at noon.  I want stuff to be going out on twittern at least
an hour before that.  If you don't want people to know what's going on in
your department and wish to keep things a secret, by all means, continue on
with your lives and ignore my existance.  If, however, you want to know why
an event wasn't as bombastic as you'd hoped...stop and ask yourself if you
told Marketing.

Yes, this is a bit passive-agressive.  No, I do not feel badly about it.
Don't ask me how I feel about it, unless you want to learn some new, fun,
and interesting curse words.

Bottom line: SEND ME INFORMATION TO PROMOTE.

Thanks!
