: Twicon Final Fail!
I've revised the post with screen caps now that the Partners have shut down the Ning site. I've saved as much of the Becky Scoggins Thread as I could and you can find all of it here
Not that it is that surprising, but Twicon has canceled both it's shows. With a big announcement on it's website:
In hind sight, it was pretty obvious things were going downhill for these guys. In February, they had to move their Toronto show to Ottawa due to the G20 Conference happening that weekend. This set off a flurry of cancellations and some grumblings on the message board about the Partners dragging their feet on refunds
There is confusion on the forum, especially about how they get refunds since the announcement didn't bother to mention how you go about this. Becky Scoggins, one of the Twilight Partners, posts a personal apology that states it's not an official statement from Twicon. Noneya calls bullshit on Becky's apology pointing out the discrepancies in her statements and her post gets deleted . Some people notice this , but Becky is claiming the threads were deleted by the users.
Later we have the second Twicon Partner Bailey Gauthier responding. And she's saying she doesn't know what's happened either!
The Wednesday after the closing announcement, the letters got sent out, and it was a simple form letter telling people to send their claims with appropriate paperwork to an address and nothing more. A week after that the forum got shut down and all that's left are the screen caps.
Meanwhile, a mousie has informed me that Becky is already hard at work on another Twilight fandom event! No wank just yet, and you can read about it over at Clairvoyant Wank
