However, he would still like to be present as communication and being on the same page is also key the next con’s success. I hope that he is still welcome to join this Sunday. </div><div><br></div><div>Angelica <br><div dir="ltr"><br><blockquote type="cite">On May 27, 2020, at 1:09 PM, Strategicon Department Heads <deptheads@strategicon.net> wrote:<br><br></blockquote></div><blockquote type="cite"><div dir="ltr"><span>Message From: Tara Leederman taleederman@gmail.com</span><br><div dir="ltr">I totally hear what you're saying, John, and I agree. Honestly, virtual con made me miss physical con so much! It was nice to check in on attendees and hear their voices, especially people I have been gaming with for years! But let's be honest about our feelings, and make sure virtual con is just a bandaid to get us all through until physical con is possible again. It's what we do best, and we can't wait to get back to doing it.<div><br></div><div>Tara</div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Wed, May 27, 2020 at 1:02 PM Strategicon Department Heads <<a href="mailto:deptheads@strategicon.net">deptheads@strategicon.net</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex">Message From: John Paiva <a href="mailto:evil5757@aol.com" target="_blank">evil5757@aol.com</a><br>

Are you all down for a post-con meeting this Sunday at noon PST, same Bat Time, same Bat Channel? We should celebrate the successes of the weekend, talk about what we can do better, and discuss what we needed and found we didn't need, etc. Let us know if this works for you and if we can count you in, or if you'd prefer a different day. Whenever we do it, I will take entertaining notes. Someone should take good ones. ;)<div><br></div><div>Excellent job taking a physical con online, everybody. It was good to hear our regular attendees' voices and see how they were doing. <3</div><div><br></div><div>Best,</div><div><br></div><div>Tara</div></div>
