The first ever Exilian convention happened on Saturday in Cambridge, UK! Thanks to everyone who came - it was a really fun day all round and we're very glad to have organised it. We'll be getting feedback over the next few days and weeks to look at what we can improve for future conventions. It's an exciting new departure for us and we were overwhelmed by the positivity and enthusiasm we found.

On a personal note, it was also great meeting some old friends who I'd never seen in realspace before (Comrade_General wins the dedication award for coming over from Ohio) and also making new friends among the convention-goers. Hopefully I managed not to send too many people to sleep with storytelling...

If you want to see more convention photos, head to our facebook or look at the thread here.

Looking forward to many more events in future!

Thanks, all,

And I look forward to one day coming to at least one of those future events! :D

ExiliCon Australia should definitely be a thing in future :)

When we have more Australians. As far as I can think there are only 5 people that have been active on some known level in Australia (Me, DN, LH, PG, Armadillo (Plus varies others (Icetank, Eaglebread, [name I can't remember], [my sister], [more names](Invited by me)) with less than 10 posts).

I think australia being as big as it is exilicon down under would only be feasible if you all lived in the same province (?)
Tis but a scratch...

Well, DD has a good point. But if there was one in Melbourne I'd probably be able to attend.

Ooh, we (all SotKs) could definitely organise one up here!

Jubal

I'd definitely vote for a northern one and would do my best to come; I think it should be a different time of years to the southern one maybe? I can now give much advice on organisation etc :)

I would probably try to attend a northern one, but how far north are you northerners?

Son of the King

We are in Manchester, so not too far north :) .

Lady Grey

Yeah, we're not too far north :)

Just saying, autumn 2015 is out of the question if we're organising :P

This is a bad thing for me. Move further north. Much further north.

Clockwork

If cg can go to the UK surely us brits can at least go to the north? Even if it is Manchester. Also, try to make it a rainy day next time. I look properly badass (photo'd by a mate, was asked for a noir type thing) with a leather jacket lighting a cigarette in the rain with the right camera trickery. Plus it sets off the green in my eyes.
