I love the idea of a virtual con

Dates I wasn't sure about since that's so far ahead into the future for me but we'll see what happens when the time comes!

Thank you!!!

Ya I know it's far away Wanted to make sure we had plenty of time to plan (especially since we have another magazine issue coming out in a few months) and that it might give a chance for attendees to plan around it Most people seem pretty open for most of the dates we suggested~

I already have most of the website set up though! I'm having way too much fun with the Artist Alley design I can't wait to share!

Ahah yeah that's fair! I just hope I'm not working when it happens, I'd love to attend You know how it's planned out?

The discord invite hasn't been updated in months, so twitch might be better?
Personally I'm on the fence, I have some interest but need to know more details when the date gets closer.

I'm really excited for this! I love the idea of attending a Ginga convention, it sounds super fun, especially being online! I don't have the funds to travel, and with this being my last year of school, I'll have to stay put. Having it online makes it easily accessible over the weekend, and plus, no paying for hotel, parking, gas, a vehicle to drive, places to eat, etc.

[Crystal]

Yes! I'm definitely interested! This is such an awesome and exciting idea!

I wasn't too sure about the dates either, but I should be available. I'm also willing to help as much as I can with anything needed!

[Ian]

Put in for artist alley as a shop!

Available all days since they're all weekends.

Our Discord invite works I just checked: https://silverfangnetwork.com/discord/
(Though the footer one still works I've requested Arano's Discord post be updated, as it's outdated since they no longer mod the server whoops!). Not sure exactly what problem you are having?

To participate in panels you'd need to be on Discord, and then they could be streamed to Twitch as well if you only want to watch

Never been in a convention before. What stuff would we do there and would we interact through live chat or something?

Mostly it would be watching people talk about a topic and you'd be able to ask questions via a chat. We could also do group hangouts, possibly themed like "discuss this" or "show us your pets" (up to you want to show your video, be just a voice, or just watch).

Otherwise we'd have an Artist Alley on the site where people will be able to advertise their fanart, commissions, etc.

As I posted on Twitter I'm not sure. I kinda want to, but not sure if I'd be able to make any plushies or plush charms in time if I was to sign up for artist ally (also worry if they would sell due to shipping costs). I also don't use site like Discord as I have no interest in such sites. Also I've never done an online con so not sure what to expect / do on it.


Saw you said on Twitter that artist ally would also be to list commission info, which could work. I'll have to have a good think over it and see as I'd most likely be working around that time of year as my work throws me all over the place at times. I'll keep and eye on info as you post it and see ^^

We will be cross streaming the panels to Twitch/YouTube so no worries about not wanting to be on Discord We want to make it accessible for everyone, also for those which the day doesn't work for them~

We've put up additional information about the Artist Alley (including a preview of the booth appearance) and panels for anyone who is interested: https://con.silverfang.net/

This seems really cool! Will there be any t-shirts or other merchandise like SSOcon? Also, will it cost anything to attend?

[Ashizar]

I love this idea and really look forward to it.

[Juhomoro]

Such a great idea!

Unfortunately I can't do anything to help, because my english "so very bad". I can write, yes, and I understand pretty well but speaking is very hard to me.

We plan on getting shirts and possibly some pins made And of course there will be the entire Artist Alley~

It'll be completely free to attend!

I'm still deciding how to contribute to this but the little artist alley booths are adorable, such a nice idea!
